They are probably the only New Zealander's to ever become known outside of Australasia and deffinately the only Kiwi's to ever break the American Market. Fully recommend seeing them to anyone.
dont you just love how us aussies have claimed the finn brothers as our own? it happend with everything that you guys bring out!!! its just like hes always "our russel crowe" until he throws a phone at some poor dudes head then hes that "kiwi guy"
anyways the finn brothers are awesome- even if they are new zealanders lol
been soaking in 'one all' and 'try whistling this' all afternoon.....what gorgeous albums! i can't wait for neil to get another album out and tour again
my wife and i saw neil finn in philadelphia in either 01 or 02 (shit, i can't remember now!) and saw the finn bros. on their last tour in STL. amazing. the first finn bros. record is fucking stellar. recorded binaurally and just absolutely b-eautiful.

i'll copy it and send it to you. seriously. you have to own it.
oh wow, how generous of you! honestly every time i go in a record shop (yeah i'm old, i still call 'em record shops haha) i always take a look in the finn section. and then usually curse under my breath for not having anything new for me to buy haha

oh I know!! i have downloaded some songs off of try whistling this...so pretty!

oh yes, 'fall at your feet'....sheer beauty. i heard neil sang that at nicole kidman's reception! lucky bitch! j/k (sorta lol)
read somewhere that neil is currently working on his solo album...no idea when to expect it, but hopefully by next year sometime....WOOHOOO!
Yeh, he says it should be done for sometime in the new year. Also theres a new Tim album coming out soon, called "Imaginary Kingdom", should be out this year. Also, they have just rereleased all the split enz albums on cd, remastered because the old cds sounded terrible. Expanded Artwork aswell.
Oh sweet lord! Thank you soooooo much for posting that B!
That overdose of beauty definitely 'sucked the life right outta' me! My god! Like Nadi said, just him and the guitar?! AND just... this song!? Pure beauty at it's finest. *faints*
I thought it give this thread a big ass BEAUTY BUMP. I'm over here floating on a cloud listening to one of my adored favs...SHE WILL HAVE HER WAY.:o!! The beauty is fuckin intoxicating! Awww and when he starts the "doo doo dooo...ahhh ahh AHH AHHH" part? *heart swells to the point of combustion*
And guess what? SHE (meaning Nadi & I:p) WILL have her way cuze tonight we're finally gonna watch Sessions at West 54th!!! YAY! I can't wait!
Come all without, come all within,
You'll not see nothing like the mighty...FINNs.
*((SHE WILL HAVE HER WAY))*
might be old but I'm someone new she said
I'm so sore that I could cry always
in the night lay your tired arms
she will have her way
somehow I will still believe her
it's the life I've been frightened of she said
deathly silence and especially the dark
feels like I am heavy and my spirit has died
she will have her way
somehow I will still believe her
she will have her way
one day I will come back
still no end in sight
though I travel far and wide
a dying man is doing time
thinker, soldier terrified
and she will have her way
somehow I will still believe her
she will have her way
one day I will come back

anyone else thinks the PJ song Army Reserve sounds like Paradise?
Paradise? Hmmm I don't hear that one. LOVE that song though. And ARMY RESERVE?? Don't even get me started. haha. Far beyond love. There is definitely an AR and Neil connection though. I mean come on, the AR intro is tooootally Weather With You. I'm sure that adds to my obsession.

I'd like to credit my wife and family for really turning me on to Crowded House. In turn I've since gone out and picked up the Finn Brothers cd and the 7 Worlds Collide cd. Might I say two of the best album purchases i've made in the last several years. Wow! I'm just blown away by these guys. I really love that song "She Will Have Her Way" also. Other absolute favorites for me include:
It's Only Natural
Won't Give In
There is a Light That Never Goes Out (I know it's a cover and love the Smiths also)
Better Be Home Soon
Disembodied Voices
Angels Heap
Weather With You
Fall At Your Feet
Locked Out
Into Temptation
Now I'm going to have to grab my 7 Worlds Collide cd for the drive to work tomorrow!
just heard this beautiful song...eddie with neil playing the piano i think. the chorus goes like this:
and you know that i love you
here and now not forever
i can give you the present
i don't know about the future
anyone knows the title of this song?
Stuff and Nonsense is such a beautiful song, it made me cry when I first heard it. Tim Finn is actually the one playing piano on this track. (don't worry, I actually thought it was Neil too when I first heard it ) But Eddie does pour his heart and soul into this song. :( This song reminds me a lot of my ex.

those are a lot of GREAT songs and pretty cool that your wife got you into it
Have you heard "How Soon Is Now?" one of the outtake from 7 World's Collide? It is pretty cool! Neil adds harmonica to the song, and I hate it say it, but I LOVE Neil's verison more than The Smiths, and i happen to LOVE the Smiths as well
