    Hi Asia & BJ from Liverpool UK. This was my younger brother's favourite song. Unfortunately he passed away 8years ago from a brain tumour but he had prepared his music list to be played at his funeral & this was played as the final song. It makes me cry when I hear it play but I love it because he did. Thanks.

      "I hope I never" is a quietly hilarious take on break-up misery, It operates on 2 levels, the misery which is does so well, and the humour which is just self-mocking that bit of melodrama which we all indulge in for a time.

    • @deborahcurtis1385
      @deborahcurtis1385 6 месяцев назад

      @@snotwurfit I think the song is charting what happens when you throw off denial and get courageous about love. Most popular music can sound repetitive it's also a question of how open you are, to the world the song is inviting you into. It's an emotional landscape much more than an intellectual pursuit. You have a bias towards the cutting quip. OK but this reflects your preferences also, not necessarily any fault of the song.
      I'm the same about film. A lot of opinion is a reflection of the emotional state the viewer is in or just personal bias.
      Not to discount sound analysis but something to bear in mind.

During their sets, I was literally laughing out loud while they were running around the stage, chasing each other... Love 'em!!! For me, the thing with Crowded House is, as pop-y and fun as their songs are, there's always this...foundation of sadness or melancholy. The songs touch your heart. Love the band.

    Asia, BJ… Crowded House are an incredible group formed in 1985 in Melbourne, Australia, & their founding members were Neil Finn (from New Zealand) & Australians Paul Hester & Nick Seymour. They were huge back in the day & if anyone can remember the Stephen King telemovie “The Stand”, you’ll recognise the song from the soundtrack. They were hugely successful in New Zealand & of course, here in Australia as well. Their tours were almost always sold out & their shows are awesome & they are still playing & touring now.

Met Neil and Tim a few times. They started a group called Split Enz, then Neil and 2 of the members from Australia including the late Paul Hester, drummer for Split Enz and Crowded House formed Crowded House out of Split Enz. Awesome group with equally awesome songs. This was the last song played at their very last concert. Never ever Dream It's Over.

    I love you guys!! One of my favorite songs EVER. My dad is 81 and has played bass and been in local bands since he was a teenager. When I found out he got his band to do this one I was thrilled to know he loved it too. Great bass line. The vocals? Well, you hear it guys. Keep up the good work. You're one of my go tos.😊

    I imagine this is quite an archetype of that song everyone has heard before but only a few know the artist. Crowded House represents to me the purity of good songwriting, songs that sound simple even if they're not, and always straight to the heart. My personal favorite and a good next recommendation would be 'Private Universe'.

      I always loved this song but I did not know the artist until about 10 years ago. I probably saw the video on MTV in the 80’s and forgot the artist. It’s the type of song that gets stuck in your head and you keep singing it to yourself.

    The song that Neil Finn will probably be remembered for the most. Crowded house was a very similar group to Creedence Clearwater revival in a way. Both were a group of four at one time, the older brother left, but I think the difference is that crowded house handled the situation better. Both groups had the younger brother as the front man of each group, both of them were the songwriters, and both of them had their older brother in the group that was not quite at the level of themselves. I'm talking about Neil Finn and John Fogerty, the front men of each of their groups. I believe that this is one of the greatest songs ever written, it has been redone by several different artists, my favorite being by Paul Young, that is my second favorite version of this song next to the original by Crowded House. Neil Finn is definitely a great musician and songwriter, great guitar player. My brother and I met him at amoeba records in San Francisco, he was doing a preliminary concert there before he went to the war field theater to do the official concert that night. He was sick that evening, he had a cold I recall, but he insisted on doing the concert.

    Great group… and individually they’ve got some great albums - Neill Finn especially.
    Asia brought a chuckle and big smile out of me when she pretty much levitated out out her chair when the chorus of the song hit. Great to see how music gets in our heads and becomes part of our lives!

    Crowded House has been my favorite band since I was 15 years old (so 36 years now). I'm glad you guys were feeling it AND enjoyed the lyrics. 😊 There's a lot more where that came from (though not all of their songs are this mellow -- not by a long shot! 😉) I recommend "Recurring Dream" from the Tequila Sunrise soundtrack. That one is so uplifting and has amazing lyrics!! ❤️
