    Love the Finn brothers. I saw them live as Spit Enz in NYC at the Dr. Pepper Music Festival in 1982. Their opening act was Duran Duran! I still have the ticket stub and the program. I had pictures but they're all gone now.

    Oh wow. This was a B-side on one of the singles from Everyone Was Here, and I reckoned it to be the best version of this song ever recorded. Never knew it was captured on film.
    Fucking love random late night RUclips discoveries.

    I love all things Finn. Have seen both together, separate, original and new Crowed House. Too bad for them they never got the huge commercial success they deserved. But as a fan, am sorta glad, because could always see in small venues....not some arena. RIP Paul Hestor. He was a funny guy and hella drummer. Good for Neil that he will be a able to make bank off this upcoming Fleetwood Mac tour gig. Be cool if they include a Neil or CH tune.
    Oh thanks for posting this vid, BTW.

    I am addicted to Crowded House and Split Enz, there is no one else that comes close to their talent.[maybe McCartney, but as much as i admire him the Finn songs are just so much better.]imo. Check out pour le monde by crowded house and see what i mean[ good version on later with Jools Holland [2007], think it might be the best ever.

    • @timtams7232

    this should have been a massive hit in britain, which, despite a lot of airplay, it wasn't. I loved it then and still think it's one of the best pop songs ever made.

      fred flintoff -The song was "discouraged from airplay" in Britain during the Falklands crisis by the BBC for reasons of morale - it was thought that references to leaky boats was not appropriate during the naval action in the war. Bloody stupid BBC
