Lip sync masters

I love this song 80d😢🎉😂❤😢😮😅😊🎉😂❤😮😅😊

That keyboard break is awesome!!!

I like how the chorus is so excellent

this was GOLD!!!!!!!!!

GREAT band….from New Zealand, no less!! NOT Aussies, like many think.

Where is that new town , where the people are nice 😢

I liked them way back when. This is the best version I have heard. And live too!

It's Joe Rogan doing the bit while pretending to be Eddie Murphy.

Look at what a hassle keyboard players had to go through in those days, having to haul four or five of these massive and heavy-duty monstrosities around just to get different sounds out of their instruments. And THEN have to carry them all the way to the USA from New Zealand on top of it. Nowadays, a feather light and tiny little thing the size of a note-pad can give you fifty thousand tones to choose from.

how do they only echo the word SHOUT

Great tune and something ominous and menacing about it.

So high level when no one else even had a clue

Great

One hit wonders in the US.

Excellent eyebrow work Neil.

So cool 😎

That face😁

This song was truly ahead of its time and i feel remains timeless

Screw the cowbell, we need more tambourine. 😅

He looks like country, western

he's not funny, but damn he's got a good point - in fact, can said aboit nearly every comic these days

Something clicks in my brain when i hear this- absolutely priceless song- cuckoo for this😂

This isn't just a pop song. iIt has sll of the hallmarks of a standard. It stands up beautifully 40 + years on. Thank you to Tim, The Finns for their entire catalouge of timeless misic. 💜

I saw Split Enz in about May 1982. They were magical.

Went on to become crowded house

Greatest bit ever!

Eddie Rayner is up there with Ray Manzerek from the Doors...Best keyboard players in pop/rocks eva

This is a perfect pop song. Along with Tempted by Squeeze. Two of the best pure pop songs of all time.

NEW RULES

I lived through that era & did love all of these great bands. The Finn Brothers are still brilliant & relevant. I'm amazed how prolific they are...& how they're still giving us insanely wonderful music. Growing up in Manhattan, radio was a bit more open to this wave,( & the Brits). These bands toured decent sized clubs here, & also in larger cities. There aren't enough superlatives for The Finns artistry I wish I could "rewind", (& be @ 4 years older so I cld hv enjoyed more of it). IFI could "go back", it would be with the knowledge of how priceless this era in pop culture was. I would know to savor much more of every happy moment that was privy too. I'd take nothing for granted & ( thru experience), know just how fast it goes ! So fast, it is scary At l re ast you hv YT etc.

Fridays was a really great show way back in the day.

Haven't heard this song in decades.

Spellbinding. Thank you.

I remember the 1st time I heard this in 1980. I was just 19 in my 69 Mach1 with my beautiful girlfriend and we just loved it. I even remember exactly where we were..lol love it and takes me back to a wonderful time in my life..

The best “80’s 50’s song” ever!

Without Mick Ronson Bowies music just was not the same for me.

top singer love it still in 2023 going on 24

I’ll take two of the Neil Finns to go, please.

Excellent tune here. I liked the early "New Wave" bands a lot, but I never cared much for the early "New Wave Look" if you will, especially the short haircuts. As the "New Wave" bands grew their hair longer(in the back), I sported this look for years to come. I always appreciated sophisticated "New Wave" bands such as U2, The Cars, Scandal, Til' Tuesday, Simple Minds,Missing Persons, Berlin, and The Split-Enz........

Hard to believe this is live 1980. How did we go backwards in terms of talent in the music business?

Trying to look a little Rockabilly for the American audience? Hair lightened, teased and blow dried, matching pastel suits and string ties?. I prefer the original video.

Best part of the story, that old fuck ripped her off on the deal, she had nothing in writing & didn't get a damn penny and neither did one of his sons, what a jerk xD

Brilliantly- camp drama...

Gee, I really miss "The 80's" and "New Wave" music!!! 🤫

Does anybody remember the Crowded House member made fun of his ex band mate Tim in public, on tv. I'll never forget the look on Tim's face "I'm going to kill you bastard". Maybe it was some kind of prank, but the Crowded House member was calling him stuff like "homeless". It was so bizarre.

Sounds as good as the album! Nice!

phenomenal --- live

Great live version
