Distant sun. One of the best songs ever .

[@bluesman260971]

“I don’t pretend to know what you want, but I offer love” Wow, just wow, such a powerful lyric

[@karenboromeo899]

totally agree. lts one of Neils best too he has said.😊💚

[@surfman88]

Must be about greece 😅

[@rachelgowans6853]

Totally agree

[@chuckfriebe843]

Indeed!

[@bluesman260971]

Remembering gigs? Aston Villa in 93 when Nick’s wireless transmitter picked up local taxi radio chatter. Neil referring to the incident with “Just waiting for fu*knuckles to sort himself out” 😂

[@carmencita.k]

I was the only one in my crowd who loved SPLIT ENZ back in the 80's had such a crush on Neil Finn

[@jennywallis65]

One of our best bands, Neil is a huge talent, we love the Finn boys.❤❤

[@petertrott5107]

Rock On lads, Aus and NZ music royalty in my opinion. 👍👌🎶

[@okidoke-xe8gj]

Neil's dense "jungle" hair with 66 is amazing!

[@joekamleh6049]

“Are you still enjoying being in a band, travelling the world, and doing all the things?” Neil: “Oh hell yeah! Music is more important than ever and I’m more compelled and fascinated by it…” Neil and Nick, we love you and need you more than ever, thankyou for continuing to gift us with your music…

[@mrbungle7586]

Well said and couldn't agree more. 👍

[@oleg7003]

I was at a concert "Crowded House" in 2008 in Moscow and they performed the song "Don't dream is over" 2 times.I even saved the concert tickets.

[@michellefarrier8338]

I absolutely ❤ this band especially Neil!!

[@jeremycameron1079]

what a band!

[@maryfields1111]

Best live show to date for me! Seen crowded house multiple times! If any of you get the chance go see them! Over 40 years of concerts for me and I can say they are one of the two top picks for me. The other is foo fighters. Love love love Neil Finn

[@nannybebe74]

Completely agree, and I’ve seen some good gigs. They are at number one for me. It’s a special experience.

[@michaelstagg6571]

Neil in the mid eighties to early 90s was second only to Macca at his peak

[@nannybebe74]

Paul says that Neil is the greatest songwriter ever.

[@DanielleA2023]

Don't Dream It's Over❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@cakemartyr5794]

Love those guys

[@GoodMrDawes]

Legends

[@simonarcher1510]

You can tell that Nick is genuinely gutted about the Gravity Stars/Stairs debacle.

[@Phoebedumplings]

Blenheim palace in June !!

[@CoolCoyote]

the way he puts words together, theres a song right here 1:30 just listen to a person who is a great song writer and musician Neil Finn. Look i would love to put my fellow kiwi in this group of high esteemed musos/ top 3 best ever musicians along with Knopfler ,Van Morrison and Bob and Eric for me. but gone of the fast rock days but yes hes a master story teller. As far as mainstream media tv its no longer any god but this kind of thing is ok.

[@djmull63]

Scotland ?

[@34hedgehog]

Not this time. We live in hope...

[@jonathanbirch2022]

I'd buy tickets for their tour but worried they're gonna play the boring new songs and not the old Split Enz and CH classics form the 80s and 90s everyone wants to hear

[@rachelbannister2072]

Saw them in Cardiff in June. Incredible. Some new stuff, but played what everyone wanted to hear, although no Split Enz, but apparently they did on other dates on the tour. To be fair, you just can’t go wrong seeing them!! I want to see them again when they’re back. They are just always quality!

[@richardelson3261]

Love 'em, especially live. But that new track really didn't interest me at all.

[@c.t5136]

One of the greatest bands in the world, awful interviewers, sadly. Didn't even get the name of the album right. My favourite, Catherine Wheels.

[@multi.instrumentalist]

Good banter though! CH do excellent banter.

[@user-rn5xo1br7f]

Probably nervous. These two are so cool and joked with them

[@chuckfriebe843]

Probably my favorite. Such a mystery surrounding the lyrics.

[@leslauraspurs]

Glad hes got Nick back after dumping him for family members previously

[@barrycreed9886]

Nick has been on every CH release. How was he dumped?

[@leslauraspurs]

I meant guitarist Mark Hart dumped for his son to replace, also thr drummer Matt Sherrod dumped for his other son, more so Mark Hart being dumped is a crap way to treat someone who was an integral part of the band during g their massive chart success.

[@MrForeverMusicFan]

@@leslauraspurs, Mark Hart was a sideman in Crowded House. He wasn't a founding member. There's a difference. Crowded House started out as Neil, Nick, and Paul. Now of course Crowded House is back together as a five piece. Mitchell Froom was with the band from the very beginning as the producer and musician. As well, Neil's offspring Liam and Elroy are also in the band. The point is, Crowded House goes back to 'who are the core essential members of the band'? It's a family thing. Mark wasn't part of the band from the beginning.

[@leslauraspurs]

One of my lifelong friends who I grew up with a few doors down from me is Peter Hester Paul Hester was his cousin, back in their hey day I turned down the offer to go watch them with vip back stage passes, Paul's dad and my mates dad were brothers and lived across the other side of the world we grew up in Bedford UK.

[@louisevans8838]

@@leslauraspursI agree with you on the Mark Hart thing. At the end of the day it is Neil’s band. I like the new lineup but I do miss Mark !

[@hohaia01]

Nick's an artist as well? Sheesh, a bit greedy with the talent.
