Neil Finn is simply one of the greatest songwriters of all time. Even Paul McCartney is a fan.

[@AndrewCarlisle]

Actually, Paul said he likes Neil's songs but never said he was the greatest songwriter ever "McCartney also confirmed in the over-30 minute chat that the long-running rumour he once referred to Crowded House frontman, Neil Finn, as the world's greatest songwriter is false. After being teased by Minchin that he doesn't even like Finn's music, McCartney joked back, "I didn't say that. I don't, but I didn't say that… I love his songs actually.""

[@robmcfarlane3602]

Crowded House were NZ's Neil Finn and Aussies Nick Seymour and Paul Hester. They performed a farewell concert in 1996 on the steps of the Sydney Opera House. That concert is so widely loved in Australia that they reunited 20 years later in 2016 for another concert at the same spot. Sadly though Paul Hester (drummer) died in 2005. Both these concerts are very much worth watching. If you search Crowded House Sydney Opera House you'll find all the songs.

This one was my request! One of my favourite bands, Neil Finn is a Kiwi but they founded the band in Melbourne. Still making music today, although they did break up in 1996 with a free concert for some 100,000 Sydneysiders on the steps of the Opera house, and reformed in 2006. They released an album this year, and won the ARIA award (more or less Aussie Grammies) for Best Album. Neil Finn recently did a stint replacing Lindsay Buckingham in Fleetwood Mac as has already been mentioned in a few other comments. Glad you enjoyed it!

Crowded House started with 1 New Zealander (Lead singer and songwriter Neil Finn and previously in a band called Split Enz. Also excellent. You should check them out) and 2 Aussies here in Australia. The bass player is Nick Seymour who is the brother of Mark Seymour from a band called Hunters and Collectors. The drummer here Paul Hester took his own life a few years ago from depression (RIP).

Please, please, please listen to almost anything done live by Neil Finn, I enjoy Crowded House as a band but Neil's voice live gives me chills even if the band isn't with him, the best is if he's by himself with just an acoustic guitar.

I nearly sent in the better be home soon tribute Neil did, but I figured I'd better send this song in first
