This is 1 of the best renditions of this song ever. I'm from Scotland and we always had to sing a song at house parties and my brother and I always practised our harmonies before we sang a crowded house song (our party piece) 😀 My brother is 5yrs gone and I still do my harmonises part to theses songs when I hear them 😪😪

When Paul McCartney was asked what it was like to be the world's best"living songwriter"Macca replied" you better ask Neil Finn!" High praise indeed.

@pvtrichter8816 7 жыл бұрын

that Paul said that or that he is indeed one of the great songwriter of our times !~! i agree he's one of the great songwriters coming out of the 90's and there may be some truth to what was said there seems to be some variation on that story in different mediums !!~! CHEERS!

@@warriorus1163 Exactly. In fact, the post above yours even gives it away because Neil Finn did not come out of the 90s, he got his start during the 70s. It's just that he had continued success in the 90s.

@warriorus1163 5 жыл бұрын

Debonaire Nerd yes great point. I'm a fan of Neil, but people have a thing about making certain people or artists bigger than they are. Neil is a great artist, but not even close to Paul, and out of all the great songwriters, McCartney wouldn't pick Neil. I only have information via internet supplied to me that Paul denied it. I'll believe it for now. Great taking music

Saw Neil Finn in The Valley, Brisbane, 2001. It was his "One - Neil" tour. So natural, so personable. In one of his songs he said, "I might need a little bit of help with the chorus. Does anybody know the words? " A few people joined him on the stage. It was a small, intimate venue and great atmosphere. It was almost like the guy and a few of his friends had dropped around and were having a jam session in your lounge room. When he finished the song, with his impromptu backing singers, and the rest of the audience joining in, he got a rousing round of applause with his comment, "Choice, eh? " A great night. An even greater talent.

Lovely song though. I’ll sing it publicly next week at an open mic. I’d love to write something as pretty as this song. Kia ora Neil! :-)
