This song, this video, and the crowd singing along make it nearly impossible for a tear to not well up. The kind of tear that you try to fight back when you are so happy and something is so beautiful that you just can’t help it. Neil Finn surely has to be one of the most underrated musicians ever.
@@michaeltw1000 You must not have been paying attention, or you're too young. These guys were all over US radio for several years, several hits still are. Neil Finn is a national treasure to the Aussies. Remember, you can be world famous without being an American rock star.
@@estebanterrance5023 New series? Not sure what you mean but the whole 2 1/2 hour concert can be streamed for at least a few more months via Australia's ABC iView: "Crowded House Live At Sydney Opera House - An unforgettable event from the steps of Sydney Opera House. In 2016 Crowded House returned to play a cavalcade of their hits and favourites 20 years after their landmark last concert."
Here's the thing about Crowded House: you can take thousands of people (or tens of thousands), put them in the seats, and every single one of them knows every single word to every single song. They elicited such dedication from their fans and rewarded them with the most beautiful music.
It fills me up with immense joy to know that I was lucky enough to be a part of this incredible concert. 27 November 2016 is a night I will never forget for the rest of my life.
Two things- 1- Truly a beautiful, timeless song. 2- It has got to be trippy and humbling for Neil to have thousands of fans singing HIS songs back to him. An amazing feeling, I would wager.
This could be the most beautiful song and lyrics ever written and performed. The words are a master piece. But the crowd singing is the best part. They love this song and group. I do too.
Ohhh, the tears just watching this video and the audience's response. I love this song so much, but I could barely sing along, my throat was tight with emotion.
At 1:22, the look on the young girls face says it all. She wasn't even born when they recorded this, yet it moved her to tears. Crowded House is highly underrated.
Not by me. Have loved them since I first saw them at the Aston villa leisure centre november 18th(or 19th thanks set list fm) and have loved them ever since
Just really discovered Neil and the band. Wow! At the beginning when he starts singing with no music and the drummer has his head bowed and starts singing along priceless. The way he is one with the crowd unbelievable
Listened to Crowded House in 1985 when I went to SA. The song was all over the place, I think it was called "Don't dream it's over". Still listening, makes me happy and sometimes cry. Thank you Neil Finn!!
No matter how many times I watch this I am totally moved by not only the song but the audience responses and the looks of absolute love they have for this band. Many times this video has lifted my mood and leaves me wishing I was there 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
THE infectious, introspective gem for composer Neil to leave his massive local Aussie audience with. Bettered only by a sustained note, an impromptu upbeat rendering of Carol King’s “I feel The Earth Move”, and friggin’ fireworks! 💥 Thank you, along with Nick & the rest of the talented band, for collecting us in this Crowded House 🌏 as we all miss our beloved “Hessie”.
I'm a child of the 80s, in California, so that voice resonates for me very directly. Radiant loving sound. His quarantine recordings show he is as good as ever, or better.
They are on tour now in North America. They opened last night in Vancouver Canada, and I was there to see them. Memories from my youth. Try to see them while they are on this side of the Pacific, there were a few too many empty seats.
What a song and what a awesome crowd..and the endings epics ..loves its ..I hads # true colours in my heads as I was listening to this then heards the # Earth's moves ..omg that's my childhoods rolled into 1 ..thank yous 💯🎉🫶👍✌️
I don’t remember hearing this song back in the day. Was listening to Don’t Dream It’s Over and came across this video. I can’t stop listening to it.!! Band and audience are fantastic!!
Se puede oir esta canción 10 veces por día??? y así en las últimas 4 semanas??? jajajajajja Es que es tan linda.. pero tan linda.. su letra, su melodía, el público cantando con emoción.. sintiendo cada palabra.. y bueno.. Neil is GREAT!!! Thanks for the Music!!! Salute de Argentina!!
The fireworks at the end~!~!~ This is out of control fantastic. all of it. tears down my face....in Coro Iso and feeling more connected to humans more than ever after watching this. THANK YOU for posting x
That damn guitar sits on its stand and never moves. Crowded House inspire me to pick it up and get back in the saddle. This was one of the first songs I played all the way through, I love it and this video is awesome. Getting back in the saddle tonight. Thanks Neil and boys.
Aussies are good people. Polite audience with a mix of young and old... One of the greatest regrets in my life, that I wasn't at this show. Timeless, endless, magnificent......no more words!
I just watched a few hours of Split Enz and Finn brothers videos to reminisce the great music....then this!! It was the best of all. Just so sweet and happy! And in my hometown and I wasn't there 😊 Even though I was at the Opera House countless times in the 70s.
M@@edwinvanderkooij8713Grow up mate. You got BONO and that peadophile ex priest who likes to tackle Olympic runners on the home stretch winning gold so ge can bevome famous for being a complete irish dickhead. Leave us Kiwis to have our own hero's instead of trying desperately to claim them. It's pathetic. Jesus Christ what next?
Brought a huge smile to my face,What a band,Love you crowded house! Aussies are good people. Polite audience with a mix of young and old... I sure wished I could have been there in the crowd singing along all those hits.
Música de qualidade que atravessa gerações e se mantém como umas das mais belas canções A magia dos inesquecíveis anos 80 que emociona através do tempo!!! Brought a huge smile to my face,What a band,Love you crowded house!
wow tingles up my spine from hearing the crowd singing this song with Neil and Crowded House! so good! i first heard this song 18 years ago on the last night of holidays up in the Whitsundays and got homesick but this song hit a soft spot so thankyou Crowded House! And i dedicate this to a girl whos very close to me, she better be home soon ❤️
I was in the crowd as a very long term fan , with my dad. A dream. He has left this earth now.
Which city you from
Glad you got to share that with your Dad. Amazing memory you'll hold forever. That is heaven.
I now get to experience another crowded house sydney opera house concert in Sydney - this time with my own son! 🥰

One of the greatest singer songwriters ever
Neil Finn underrated? You sure about that 🤔
ACABOU DE CAIR UM CISCO AQUI 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I hadn't realised this band had thousands of members, wow, what a show.
I ass actually there. It was like 250,000 people.
10,000 + people singing along to such a beautiful song and I get all teary eyed and goosebumps. Can only imagine how Neil Finn must feel.
Very true 🙏🙏
i know I am kind of randomly asking but does anybody know of a good place to stream new series online?

Stuck at home working due to COVID-19. Nothing soothes me like any good Crowded House songs :)
Hey, u cool. Stay positive, it will pass.✌️🙌🌟

I was at the farewell to the world concert in 1996....so damn good.
@@Thisispants I was at the “farewell” in 96 and then this one 20 years later. Truly some of my best feelings
I envy you 🤧👍✌️

Venkman007 ...and yet he remains a very humble man. True class.

And yet in 2020 THIS still stands up!
2021 still
2022 even
2023
i'm 50 and still loving this classic...
At 1:22, the look on the young girls face says it all. She wasn't even born when they recorded this, yet it moved her to tears. Crowded House is highly underrated.
John Mazza a great awesome band.
Always dreamed of going to Australia ! 😎
John Mazza how can you say underrated with such audience’s around the world.
Not by me. Have loved them since I first saw them at the Aston villa leisure centre november 18th(or 19th thanks set list fm) and have loved them ever since
Nobody underrates Crowded House, for goodness sake. The word "underrated" is highly, highly overrated in comment forums.
Folks this is what is so nice about Australia….we are quite fond of each other…
So genuinely connected with his fans...and they with him...Last time I seen CH at this venue Paul was playing the drums...🥲
This group should keep growing and growing. 2022
Aussies are the best audience. Ever.
Just really discovered Neil and the band. Wow! At the beginning when he starts singing with no music and the drummer has his head bowed and starts singing along priceless. The way he is one with the crowd unbelievable
Neil dedicated this song to the original drummer, Paul Hester, at the Aria awards in 2005 after Paul committed suicide. 😢
perfection. perfection. I weep for new gigs. best song. best vibe best country. Nick
Who the hell thumbs-downs this performance? Such love.
Best band of the late 70s into the 80s and beyond.
My eyes are so clean after this I can see clearly. ❤ this song
He has that entire crowd in the palm of this hand! :) They sound as awesome as ever.
Listened to Crowded House in 1985 when I went to SA. The song was all over the place, I think it was called "Don't dream it's over". Still listening, makes me happy and sometimes cry. Thank you Neil Finn!!
i dont know how as the song wasnt released until 1986 - they were just formed in melbourne a year before
For some reason I have never heard this song. It’s beautiful. The crowd is the best I have ever and heard.
This song always does me in. The one song that hits me since my mother left me and my two brothers one day out of the blue when I was just 13.. ;(
No matter how many times I watch this I am totally moved by not only the song but the audience responses and the looks of absolute love they have for this band. Many times this video has lifted my mood and leaves me wishing I was there 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

This jewel should have millions of likes.

That's nice of you to say about us. Crowded House and other Kiwis aren't too bad either.
Australian are awesome people
And there would be a lot of New Zealanders amongst them paying respects to their national hero.
Neil Finn is great. Definitely underrated.
I love this song soooo much !!!
Greetings from Argentina and LONG LIVE THE SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE !!!!!

Very respectable audience wish if I was there ...crowded house one of the best bands of 80s and 90s
They are on tour now in North America. They opened last night in Vancouver Canada, and I was there to see them. Memories from my youth. Try to see them while they are on this side of the Pacific, there were a few too many empty seats.
embraced by Kiwis and Aussies the world over on OE's! God Bless Crowded House!
Pure class, classics like this one will never ever die!!!
