Everything that was best about Split Enz' records can be found here: Extreme melodiousness, harmonic surprises, amazing instrumental textures... ...and Tim Finn's voice.
I played in a grindcore ,stoner rock band in the 90's. We found ourselves recording at Tim Finn's Periscope studio in the 90's. Nice little Art Deco house in Balaclva. . I sat myself down at his upright piano and played this song.
Escapade was a favourite in the 80’s growing up as a teenager and in a Minor Key was my old girl friends and my favourite song around the campfires, Listening to it today brought back so many awesome memories and Tim Finn was just awesome to listen too, Never gets old.
Unfortunately there was (and still is) a chain of auto repair stores in the US called "Meineke" (pronounced "my-nah-key") so when I bought Tim's album back in the day it was like "Oh mein scheisse I'm trapped inside a German-sounding car fix-it garage!

Day 6447. 921 weeks. All my urine and distilled water til 12.50pm then dried figs and bites of different fruits and vegetables then more urine then fresh fruit and vegetables and other foods at 10.00pm. No change.
@@ssymboint7892 I recognize that it's a minor key, but I was actually wondering if it is D minor. I've heard in several places that musicians consider D minor to be the saddest key. Thanks for your reply! ;)
Finally found this song again 36 years later.
Same age, not young again
finally found this song 40 years later, thank you.
I had Escapade on cassette and wore it out in my walkman. Minor Key came to mind today.
Easily one of the best songs that Tim has ever composed and sung...and that is saying a helluva lot!
My favorite song

I'm living in a minor key,
A melancholy mystery,
A quiet place where you and me,
Can be quite still.
Piano plays a minor chord,
And I'm reminded of the day,
When love game me her rich rewards,
Then took away my major woes,
I stumbled on such sweet repose,
In a minor key.
When two weary hearts,
Enter wide open spaces,
It's enough for a while just to smile,
But should love endure,
Then the smiles on their faces,
Turn to bitter tears,
Back to tears of joy.
I'm living in a minor key,
A bitter-sweet tranquility,
A place where nothing touches me,
Nor ever will.
A sad familiar melody,
Comes singing through the room to me,
Whenever I am by your side,
I'll take a ride down memory lane,
And face the truth I'm back again,
In a minor key.
Rain falls on the roof,
As we lie here together,
Laughing at the jokes,
Only you and I will ever understand,
Linger for a while,
In the pool of emotion,
Let the water rise,
Take your time and see,
You'll find it in a minor key.
I'm living in a minor key,
A melancholy mystery,
A quiet place where you and me,
Can be quite still.

When love game me her rich rewards,
Then took away my major woes,
I stumbled on such sweet repose
'gave', not 'game'. Amazing how many lyrics sites have that same mistake.
