These two are the most talented musicians I have ever seen live. They have such a legacy w/Split Endz and Crowded House. I know I heard Eddie say that b/c of Neil, he knew he wanted to be a songwriter.
The 7 World's Collide dvd/cd, truly shows their music catalogue, performing w/other musicians who admired them. I have not gotten their new album yet, but from what I have heard when they played some of their songs in San Francisco last summer, I really like.
I think these boys deserve their props!!! And Neil's son, Liam, is also one talented boy.:)

The new album is brilliant, 7 world's collide is even better (Eddie Vedder singing covers is a highlight). The Finn Brothers are amazing and the pride of a nation.

very enthusiastic crowd, enjoyed it alot
I hope they tour again soon. I can't believe they came to San Francisco again, and I missed them. They sure put on a great show though, and I hope to see them soon.:)
My favorite Crowded House song would have to be "The World Where You Live"

Yeah, and the pride of our nation too. Even though they're not ours i wish they were. Neil is brilliant beyond words.
I'll second the "the world Where you live" as beeing a damn good song."Four Seasons in One day" is my favorite.
Bumping it up!

it's got 5 extra songs and 5 DVD "extras," including a performance of weather with you with paul hester from musicmax australia (from last year, i think).
at the San Francisco show last year, a guy next to me, was recording that show, I am wondering if that is out already. I was doing a lot of screaming, so i probably messed up his tape
You guys should really see the MTV Unplugged w/Crowded House and Tim Finn...they did a beautiful redition of "Throw Your Arms Around Me":)

Anyways, these 2 men truely are gifted beyond belief. Such amazing music effortlessly flows outta them. Legendary talent right here. The music that they have created over the years is fuckin mind blowing and without a doubt classic and inspirational. 7 Worlds Collide is the greatest. I still haven't been exposed to much Spilt Endz but from what I have heard I really, really liked. I absolutely LOVE Crowded House. No matter how you slice em- completely stripped down... mixed with other legendary greats...solo...what the hell ever, the MIGHTY FINN BOYS RULE!
I agree Nadia, that show at the Warfield was beautiful. I'm really itching to see them again. Such magic and grace up there....but at the same time they aren't afraid to be total goofballs. You can tell they put so much passion, so much of their heart and souls into what they do...and then to sprinkle it all with some laughter?! *fuzzy happy times* When they were quoting Old School?? HA! Loved that! These guys have some great taste all around. They really just have such a great attitude. Like their music, they are so real/genuine and down to earth. I love how much they constantly thank their fans at shows too. That always gets me. To see the artist up there with non-stop "thank yous" between songs. Hell yeah!
Ahhh FOUR SEASONS IN ONE DAY!?! *heart sinks* Love that one as well. Very sweet how Neil dedicated to Ed and his little one.
OH MAN~~~> Always take the weather with you?!?! That song makes me soooooo happy!
Neil defintiely has the power to stir up sooo many emotions with his gorgeous ass lyrics and perfectly fitting music. His music does compliment every single word, the feeling behind it just intensifies everything. Love it so much. Very much appreciate all the magic he shares.
Gonna post one of my favs......
~BETTER BE HOME SOON~
Somewhere deep inside
Something’s got a hold on you
And it’s pushing me aside
See it stretch on forever
I know I’m right
For the first time in my life
That’s why I tell you
You’d better be home soon
Stripping back the coats
Of lies and deception
Back to nothingness
Like a week in the desert
I know I’m right
For the first time in my life
That’s why I tell you
You’d better be home soon
So don’t say no, don’t say nothing’s wrong
Cos when you get back home maybe I’ll be gone
It would cause me pain
If we were to end it
But I could start again
You can depend on it
I know I’m right
For the first time in my life
That’s why I tell you
You’d better be home soon
That’s why I tell you
You’d better be home soon
"Lo√e, you know the word
...YOU invented it!" ~ E√

Fall At Your Feet is one of my FAVORITE songs by Crowded House...you can totally sense that emotion, and the way he sings, I almost tear up just listening to it. :(
Fall At Your Feet
I’m really close tonight
And I feel like I’m moving inside her
Lying in the dark
And I think that I’m beginning to know her
Let it go
I’ll be there when you call
And whenever I fall at your feet
You let your tears rain down on me
Whenever I touch your slow turning pain
You’re hiding from me now
There’s something in the way that you’re talking
Words don’t sound right
But I hear them all moving inside you, go
I’ll be waiting when you call
Hey and whenever I fall at your feet
Won’t you let your tears rain down on me
Whenever I touch your slow turning pain
The finger of blame has turned upon itself
And I’m more than willing to offer myself
Do you want my presence or need my help
Who knows where that might lead
I fall
Whenever I fall at your feet
Would you let your tears rain down on me
Whenever I fall, ever I fall

The Finn brothers are just incredible musicians, they are very under-rated.
I agree. They are also quite the comedians on stage too! haha. I LOVE it at the San Francisco show last year, Neil said, "BLUE! You're MY BOY!" quoting Will Ferrell from Old School
I need the mp3 from the 7 World's collide of "Fall At Your Feet" that version is the BEST!!! Ed O' Brien's, Johnny marr's, and Lisa Germano's voices make the song EXTRA special

~Anytime~
I see a dog upon the road
Running hard to catch a cat
My car is pulling to a halt
The truck behind me doesn't know
Everything is in the balance
Of a moment I can't control
And your sympathetic strings
Are like the stirrings in my soul
I could go at anytime
There's nothing safe about this life
I could go at anytime
Find the meaning of the act
Remember how it goes
Every time you take the water
And you swim against the flow
The world is all around us
The days are flying past
And fear is so contagious
But I'm not afraid to laugh
I could go at anytime
There's nothing safe about this life
I could go at anytime
Anytime (come without warning)
Anytime (it could be so easy)
A walk in the park (or maybe when I'm sleeping)
Anytime (see the clouds come over)
Rain or shine (I make you so unhappy)
Lets make it right
I feel like I'm in love
With a stranger I'll never know
Although you're still a mystery
I'm so glad I'm not alone
I could go at anytime
There's nothing safe about this life
Make it so easy to fly in the night
I could go at anytime
I could go at anytime

finn brothers can't get enough kudos really....i can't wait for neil to put out a new album, he's a genius.
been on a major neil kick lately, listened to this tune earlier today, nice mellow crowded house tuneage for a sunday
Four seasons in one day
Lying in the depths of your imagination
Worlds above and worlds below
The sun shines on the black clouds
Hanging over the domain
Even when you're feeling warm
The temperature could drop away
Like four seasons in one day
Smiling as the shit comes down
You can tell a man from what he has to say
Everything gets turned around
And I will risk my neck again
You can take me where you will
Up the creek and through the mill
Like all the things you can't explain
Four seasons in one day
Blood dries up
Like rain, like rain
Fills my cup
Like four seasons in one day
It doesn't pay to make predictions
Sleeping on an unmade bed
Finding out wherever there is comfort
There is pain
Only one step away
Like four seasons in one day
Finn brothers!
Have to love them. No ego, just brilliant music.
Yet to see them live and boy I can't wait for Neil or Tim to come my way again.
Bought the best of Split Enz at a 2nd hand store about 3 months ago for $12 (US$7) and it's greatest. Simply stunning!
Message to my Girl and Charlie are my favs.
Yeah that is what i LOVE about these guys...no egos, and they are just themselves...so much music history between these brothers. i love their music and I think they are very talented!!
Awww, don't worry, you will see them soon enough, and if you do attend their show,you are in for a real treat!! They are SO freakin' HILARIOUS!!
