So very beautiful.....In working through enormous grief over the tragic loss of my youngest son, I listened to "Don't Dream It's Over" thousands of times...Sad, pensive, comforting, torturous, memorial...every emotion hits hard yet beckons and softly tugs at the heartstrings to listen just one more time...the endless looping of grief.

Neil Finn is among the greatest singer/songwriters of his era. He belongs with McCartney/ Lennon, Paul Simon and the other greats of rock/pop. He is profoundly underrated and has written some of the most beautiful contemporary music of the last 30 years. Thank you Neil. Thank you.

almost 63 years old and I have always liked this song ( a lot ) since the eighties. But I have to say that I was literally 'stunned' by the beauty of this version of this song by Neil Finn , ' Don't Dream It's Over Now' . His voice and performance is angelic if there ever was such a thing. Neil Finn is an amazing talent that; hopefully, we can hold on to. So many great artists are leaving us way too soon (recently). Thank you Neil Finn for my favorite song; maybe of my lifetime. Thanks !

Decades after I first heard this, I still admire the sheer poetry of the lyrics like it's really a poem in its first incarnation before meeting the notes to set it into a song. The mood is also a blend of melancholy and catharsis. It's a poem, not a pop song. That it hit as high as it did in the charts is a testament to the fact that there is still room for songs that do not have to be boxed in into the usual pop mold. This song lives on in my iPod and iPhone playlists. Hats off to Neil for this pure poetry of a song

On this subject, that last "now" goes beyond singing. It's borderline showing off (and I mean that in a good way). His voice is fine wine. I wonder when it will "peak."

I lived in Wellington in 1987 for a year (I worked on the Air New Zealand Airport Terminal Expansion Project) and this is also when I discovered Neil & Crowded House. I'm back in California now, but every-time I hear them on the radio triggers fond memories. I was also introduced to an aussie band "Hunters & Collectors" which I personally liked even better than Midnight Oil. I must be getting old as it amazes be "the crap" that's playede on the radio here in America these days.

Good grief, this is spine tingling. I wonder what goes through the heads of the people playing the strings. When Neil's singing verse one they have the look on their face that says they are immersed in it every bit as every audience member and they know they're in the presence of greatness.
