Dear Annie, what a heartfelt tribute. All my love to you. All my love to Paul. Be strong. I have severe depression too and I found something in Paul that I never found in anyone else, except for you today. I am making no sense, I am so shaken by your tribute and your pain. Much love, my friend. Love you.

Rest in peace. Paul. This extremely talented & fun loving man, was tragically taken way too, soon. Crowded House were & are such brilliant band. They were never the same without him. When ever I hear that wonderful song "Four Seasons In One Day", I always think of him. Bless ya Hessie, sleep well!!

❤ Thank you everyone for the nice and caring comments 😊 Making these kinds of videos (speaking) isn't easy for me so to see such great comments and support means a lot to me. Also if you hear clicking during the video that's me opening and closing the DVD case because of nervousness.

What a beautiful tribute you gave to Paul Hester, I am sure he received your love and what an incredible inspiration you are! I’m so sorry for what you’ve gone through personally in your own struggles with depression and then the surgery. I hope that you’re doing a lot better now. Your story really touched me.

I don't blame your son, or you. He had a great personality and was amazing as Paul the Cook (I have 2 younger sisters now 20 and 16. The youngest used to watch Barney and The Wiggles appeared on the tape in previews so she used to watch that. I didn't know who Paul Hester was at the time because I was a teen and wasn't into Crowded House yet, but later when I was in my late 20s I became a fan and became familiar and became a fan of Paul and Crowded House and started enjoying their music-Paul's too). I miss Paul too. Gone way too soon unfortunately. 46 is no age to die :( Aww thank you :) I really appreciate the compliment.

Thank you very much for the compliment and comment :) I agree, Crowded House and Paul Hester were amazing. I have Crowded House's older CDs (the ones with Paul performing on them). Anything after that I haven't bought because to me it just doesn't have the same sound or feel to them :(

Lovely tribute! I think of Paul Hester often over the years and wish he were still here. Years ago I found some Paul Hester solo song videos on KZbin and now I can no longer find them anywhere. If anyone knows where I can find them... please let me know. We all miss you, Paul 💔

POUL always looked happy and vivid and fun. Can't believe it. I always wandered how Neil could run a normal healthy family life being on the road all the time And Poul broke down I try to think what was in his mind at those last seconds He wasn't lonely He was loved And yet

Is not Crowded House songs, but that's what I listened when Paul Hester was still alive! I hope you will enjoy it!

I love Crowded House! and once Paul left, they couldn't be complete...he was funny, creative and charismatic...Italian Plastic is a song that could be a hit...His original work (Pain, Happyland and I think one or two more) are haunting insights into the demons he was fighting and the natural talent that he had and could have contributed...I mean those songs blow me away!! they are right here on KZbin..hang in there Annie, I have experienced depression myself...the discovery of God, Jesus and the Bible have helped...the problem with many Christians is that they induce fear, guilt, shame and other negative emotions in us...that is not what it is about at all...God is all about love and caring..do not listen to someone who wants to make you feel less, they are not doing God's work,,,it is truly about you and Him only...God bless and it's no coincidence that people suffering depression problems are drawn to the beautiful work of Paul Hester

I also love Crowded House and it just wasn't the same once he left the group. He had an amazing talent, and like you said was funny, charismatic and creative, not to mention had such talent. I agree. I've watched the few solo songs he did, especially Pain and his music and his vocals just blew me away and haunted me because I could hear the pain in his voice. My goodness. I do go to church and enjoy it and look forward to it each week and I spend a good chunk of my time reading the Bible. God bless to you too. I agree with what you said.

@@jokerswildioThe songs & videos are back up on KZbin. I love those songs too (though I like Happyland better). I'm slowly doing better. Currently divorced (no need for sympathy. It just wasn't working between us and I was miserable in Taiwan so we divorced and I flew home to Toronto.
