    No problemo!;)

    Does anyone have mp3s of the other outtakes from 7 World's Collide? I know a lot of the songs got left off, like "Betterman", "Off He Goes" "Not For You"

    I have been on a MAJOR Neil kick as of lately, and I was thinking once I have my baby, I want to listen to Neil's songs (not to mention also that of Tim)n while I am in the hospital...so my daughter can come into the world w/FINN and of course some PJ;) Any suggestions on what I should put on my mix cd?

    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.:)
    I just ordered the Seven Worlds Collide album online. I couldn't find it in the stores. I've been a fool for passing it up all these years. I recently heard Take a Walk on YouTube and I'm addicted!

    This is so crazy - I was a HUGE Neil Finn and that's how I tripped over the amazing talent of Ed and the boys. ( I had heard of them but never really listened to any albums) Living in Australia, I got to see the reunion show of Split Enz in June and have seen the Finn Bros and Crowded house many times- I saw the last show when Hester played drums asa cameo before he committed suicide. It is so great to see the rest of the world acknowledge what we Kiwis/Aussies have known all along.
    Best songs

    I really dif them.
    I knew a few crowded house songs but really discovered them with 7 worlds collide.
    I was looking for songs where Ed sang and found taht cd. I thought "why not ?". And Wow ! This album's incredible. The sound is perfect, the energy is awesome...
    Last year I bought Finn Bros new album and it's very great.
    I recommend to everybody...

    That is TOO cool!! You are SO lucky to have seen them live, Split Enz AND Crowded House.

    My oldest brother got the Best of Split Enz and listened to it when I was a younging, and I heard Crowded House "Don't Dream It's Over" I didn't see the Neil connection until YEARS and YEARS later! Thank goodness for 7 World's Collide for getting me into everything FINN! :D

    For all of you Hester fans, here is a touching tribute that Neil did dedicated to Paul. It made me cry when I first saw it. enjoy it

    oh wow nadia, that tribute clip brought tears to my eyes, especially when everyone sings the last line together. that song alone is just so gorgeous, what a really touching tribute by neil. breaks my heart to see him so visibly sad.

    on brighter news, i stopped by amoeba records and scored the out-of-print copy of the '95 release of finn brothers!! and on sale even, woohoo

    Thanks for the post.

    What a touching tribute. I really don't know he was able to keep his composure. I'd never get through it.

    ah, a Finn thread! I LOVE the Finns. have loved Crowded House since back in the day (I was lucky enough to see them in concert) and am mad for the Finns (together and solo)...listen to their music all the time (with some PJ thrown in every so often!) when I learned that Ed had collaborated with the Finns at the 7WC show, I about passed out. it's like my two worlds collided. Neil and Ed are my two favorite musicians ever.

    I was in New Zealand earlier this year and was out for a run one morning...who did I pass by on the sidewalk?? none other than Neil Finn, out for a run with his dogs. and yesterday I passed Ed on the sidewalk in downtown Seattle. I was over the moon both times, if I got to see them in concert together I would probably start sobbing out of sheer happiness

    Does anyone remember the ALT project? Tim Finn, Liam O' Maonlai from the Hothouse Flowers and a guy named Andy White. There were some really funny interviews on MTV back then.

    yeah i see enz albums in the record shop all the time, so you should be able to find them. probably also available on amazon, though i'd suggest the local record shop, support small bidness :)

    and i've been hooked on this song for today

    welcome to the thread!! :D And that is TOO cool that you passed by Neil. TOO cool!! You lucky, lucky person!!

    And B, THANK u once again for burning me the Finn Brothers cd from 1995. I LOVE that album!! Only Talking Sense is such a GREAT song and thanks for putting up the video!

    and WOHOOOO, for NEW Tim and Neil stuff!! you all should read Tim's blog on MySpace. It is pretty insightful on what he is doing. :)

    Great news. I've heard a Neil Finn (or crowded house/finn brothers) about 6 times now at a Qdoba restaurant. I don't go to them that often either.
  • Options
    yup i'm very excited, i'm so curious to hear what he's done. and he's wonderful live, so i'm equally psyched for a tour...next to PJ, he's the only other performer i'd make a concerted effort to see.

    and re-reading what he said:

    "tanks are shooting" - what sort of village is he living in?? haha crazy kiwi :p
