Neil's version of Paul's song You can put your shoes under my bed is amazing the whole concert was fantastic.
I will check it out when I get time. Thanks for being here - Cheers Alex
Cannot agree more. It is an amazing performance of one of Paul's lesser known songs.
It’s a gourgeous song isn’t it. Always a favourite of mine. He is such a lovely songwriter. The Finn Brothers are equal to anything in the world. And then Paul Kelly 2 legends together. So simply done and so beautiful.
Makes you want to have an affair!
You can’t go past true colours for a fantastic split enz album. Or if you want a complete package- enzs of an era.
Yes, True Colours. That's the only one I have.
I third that! I got you and one step ahead are on it, classics!
True Colours would probably be the album to get, it’s mid-era, so they’ve figured themselves out by then.
A good compilation is History Never Repeats.
Yup, one of my first and best albums . I scored the original laser etched vinyl edition on its release. Still got it, sleeved and stashed.. a master work!
Neil and Tim Finn have written a whole raft of brilliant songs over the years. Neil's sons play with his band Crowded House these days. He's a class act; incredibly talented but zero ego. Loved the harmonica in the performance with Paul Kelly. What a treat to have two master songwriters from the Antipodes sharing the stage!
This is an excellent recording of a live version, but, again, this is a song of which the studio version needs to be heard. It's so haunting, moody, absorbing, so beautifully produced.
Omg I can’t believe you picked this one today 😆 I was in the supermarket this afternoon and they were playing “Into Temptation” on the instore music 😮 I was actually wondering at the time what today’s song might be - this is too much 😂.
Always loved this one, best I ever heard it was in the State Theatre Sydney 1988. What an incredible show that was. Love the version with Paul Kelly too 🙌
I remember seeing a comment the other day that it would be unthinkable not to include “Message to My Girl” - just warning there may be a riot here if it’s not on the list - but a good excuse for week 2 😆💕💐
Get ready for a riot but also maybe week 2???
@@TheThamesmen 😂🥂👍👍
Thumbs up for the intro alone
Paul and Neil - no two more humble superstar musicians will you find - an absolute masterclass.
Come on Chris how's that curated Month of Paul Kelly coming along - must be about due.
Great reaction as ever boys - keep up the fantastic work, can't wait for the next episode.
we are booked with stuff until Oct..... it takes ages to pull these weeks together so hang in there and we will get there - Cheers and thanks for the support Mal. Cheers Alex
Have always loved the lyric to this tune. Can totally picture a musician writing a song about the, um, "Temptations" whilst touring etc.. The version with Paul Kelly was epic. A great duo.
Also I was lucky to go to the same school as the Finn brothers in Auckland, NZ though many years later. It was a Marist Brothers school and one of the old Brothers that was still teaching told us that the Finn's music teachers essentially told themthey were not going to be successful musicians! 😂
That was beautiful. Really enjoying the bonus tracks lads, they're turning out to be something special every time you play one.
Thanks Chris and Ross from Redferns work!!!!
After seeing the Monkey intro again, I think we need a Godiego week.
I'm hearing you Floydster, but I'm not sure if over 50 albums and almost 30 singles are enough to get you noticed outside of Japan. But I know what you mean, they are the "Monkey" masters.
I am glad you said 'He is the real deal' because Neil is so underrated, and so is Split ENZ. Maybe that is why Mick Fleetwood first thought of Neil when he needed a guitarist and vocalist to join Fleetwood Mac.....great choice but even greater admiration for such a talent. Thanks guys.
Thanks Martin cheers Alex
Neil did 7 Worlds Collide concerts with Johnny Marr and guys from Radiohead and covered "There is a Light that Never Goes Out" which is worth a listen
Yeah but Jonny Mar is from the smiths and I am not that depressed in life - Cheers Alex
Wasn’t expecting this one to make the list, but so glad it did. It’s a sensational song.
I loved it - cheers Alex
Such a glorious song. Neil is so talented. I could see you were both blown away by him.
Niel’s brother , Tim, is also an excellent songwriter , musician and singer. He had quite a successful solo album in the mid 80’s when Split Enz broke up.
True Colours...first album and just the best of...ever.
Wish "Finn Kelly" became a 10-year collaboration, imagine the new gems that would come from that!
Guys their 1980 Album True Colours is a masterpiece
Neil Finn is a class act and one of THE best songwriters ever.
True Colours…. Start there for your ENZ journey..🥰
I will check it out when I get time. Thanks for being here - Cheers Alex
Nick Seymour (bass) has a brother (Mark) who is in a special much loved band not really known outside of Australia called Hunters & Collectors. Their song Throw Your Arms Around Me - will get a pub full of drunken Aussies singing along and crying the way Williams' Angels can in an English pub.

True colours is a masterpiece.
I think you’ve seriously misunderstood the development of Split Enz. They started as a band in about 1972, whilst they were students at art college. Changes in music style and band mebets ensued, but they built up a small following. In 1974, they moved to Australia, where the record labels were, and found it a struggle against the Aussie pub rock. Michael Gudinski did sign them tho, paid for a 1st album and then sent them to London where a second album was recorded. Their quirky punk wasn’t as popular as the gritty British version. They returned to NZ, a couple of members left and Neil joined. Their first hits in Australasia came in 1977; they were written by Tim Finn and were still quirky. Their success came when New Wave started; “I See Red”, written by Tim Finn, was a big hit. Neil started contributing more after being a band member for several years, and the rest is history.
Frankly, you could easily do a Tim Finn (Split Enz and solo) week; he’s written some real doozies.
The water is Deeeep here. Thanks for the info Linda! Cheers Alex
True colours
True Colours or Time and Tide. A great blend of tunes in those two albums.
Thanks for listening
Incredible! I'm a little lost for words. Can't even explain my emotions, but are moved.
We loved it - What a gem. Cheers Alex
Awesome stuff fellas. As for Split Enz you can't go wrong with their 1980 albulm True Colours. Not their debut but definitely the standout album
Neil just keeps putting out music. Can't stop for long!
WOW!! I've never seen the clip of Neil and Paul together......
It doesn't get much more simple than that. These guys aren't just brilliant songwriters, they are poets.
For so many years in Australia and our brothers and sisters in NZ, mainly heard British and American songs. Then guys like these came along telling OUR stories. So proud of them.
Glad you enjoyed it - cheers Alex
I know I mentioned it before, but you guys are absolutely brilliant! Proper reactions...absolutely focused, giving nothing but respect to the artist. Thank you for that! Wow...hitting "One Step Ahead" and "Into Temptation", easily my two favorite Neil songs. Can't thank you guys enough. Have a great weekend!
Wow, thank you! Take care and have a fab weekend kelly. Cheers Alex
Gentlemen. About Split Enz. True Colours (1980) is their best selling album but it only has three Neil Finn songs on it. That said, his older brother Tim was a genius songwriter in his own right too. You should check out his work as well. I think you should go for Time And Tide (1982) to start with. It's artistically their most elaborated album, a cohesive band effort with five real gems by Neil, five by Tim, one intro by keyboard player Eddie Rayner and one band effort. Actually Neil en Tim never really worked together on songs before the Woodface (1991) album when Tim joined Crowded House briefly. Thank you both for this beautiful Finn week.
I need more time!!! Thanks Alex
Doesn't get much better than that...The rabbit hole is open and it is long and glorious enjoy
Thanks!
I would suggest Split Enz “True Colours”, album, i grew up with them during that albums era, and it was always my favourite.
Fab blokes, a masterpiece !
Forgot to add that I just LOVE Six months in a leaky Boat - Split Enz about 82 if my memory is correct
Their album together is on Spotify called Goin’ Your Way. I also have the dvd of the concert. It’s bloody brilliant ❤
I will check when I get time. Thanks for being here and have a fab weekend. Thanks Alex
Loving this. Check out Neil doing Paul's song (with P.K) 'You can put your shoes under my bed "
I will check it out when I get time. Thanks for being here - Cheers Alex
Both versions were great. Thanks for doing the bonus.
Glad you enjoyed it! Cheers Alex.
I adore this song, could listen to this over and over for hours!
Split Enz..True Colors is the album to get..
another thing we have lost somany music icons here in australia this year and previous , rip u aussie icons we miss u but , we have yt to watch over n over , u live on forever.
That clip with Paul Kelly was only the promo for the concert!! You should really sit down and watch the whole concert, with the band!! The greatest hits of Paul and Neil is a truly amazing catalogue, and they only scratched the surface in that concert!!
I will check it out when I get time. Thanks for being here - Cheers Alex
Sounds beautiful.
Neil Finn produced about thirty songs genuinely as good as this one (their quality is amazingly consistent).
When he was in the solo stage of his career, a time when he experienced the inevitable decline in the powers that every great song-writer suffers, he was asked what In his opinion was his best song. Predictable he said "Don't Dream it's Over" - a real classic in popular music, but he also quickly added "Not the Girl You Think You Are." It is an interesting situation with this particular song because it came right at the end of Crowded House's time and wasn't on a studio album, and consequently I don't think it got radio play in Australia. For that reason I sense that it is very little known among people who know all the other Crowded House songs. (Despite it obviously being in a John Lennon style I think that Finn remarkably wasn't conscious of that when he created it)
Crowded House was definitely a vehicle for the talents of Neil Finn. That said, the band did have a George Harrison in drummer Paul Hester. He usually had one song written and sung by him on the Crowded House albums. Although not bad, his songs did struggle when compared to even Finn's worse. (He was a complex character, a real clown who in the end took his own life)
That's one thing I've been thinking about listening to these songs. Neil Finn has to have top-notch musicians around to make this stuff sound good. A good solid drummer with people around that drummer who can weave in and out.
The harmonization of Neil Finn and Paul Kelly is incredible. What a great version of the song!
True Colours Split Enz absolute incredible album
I will check it out when I get time. Thanks for being here - Cheers Alex
I watched an interview from overseas, where the interviewer asked Paul McCartney what it was it like to be such a prolific and wonderful songwriter. He answered straight back and said ask Neil Finn!! True story, the interview must be online somewhere!
The Kelly and Finn clip basically was a promo announcing their concert series. There are a few videos of songs available on TH-cam; an album, Goin’ Your Way, was released in 2013. 29 live tracks, including an exquisite Moon River.
The full concert of kelly and finn was blocked in the USA so Chris found that version.
Renee Geyer does the hands-down best version of Into Temptation
I will check when I get time. Thanks Alex.
Just thank you
Thank you too!
Tafataka Buddha say "Doo is always beddar dan one". 🧖♀️💮 😅 Loved both😘👌
True colours is definitely the best one.
Thank you so much 😀
A dream team! PK and Neil. Magnificent, gentle, intelligent souls. We are so lucky to have them.
btw tim finn is so good too his bro
This was released in 1989. Between Neil and producer Mitchell Froom, they did more than any other act to bring back the sounds of the Mellotron, the great analogue sample playback keyboard that became the sound of Progressive Rock, most popular from the late 60s to the mid 70s. The Mellotron was magic in your ears.
Split Enz? Start with Mental Notes.....their first album, it's quite progressive but brilliant, some say the music is inspired by Genesis. Tim Finn and Phil Judd were the main song writers at this point. For Neil Finn's influence on the band, check 'True Colours', Neil's second Enz album and the band's fifth and the one where Neil's song writing really came to the fore. This album set them on the road to stardom. BTW, as for this song, Into Temptation, the studio/album version beats both these by a long way. Sometimes live is not better. You guys are obsessed with live....it's not always better.😉
Yes we always choose live 1st, it's our ethos that the true musician shines through on live. We always lead with live 1st
@@TheThamesmen Fair enough and it's a fair theory....just know that you're not always hearing the best then. Please still take note of my suggestions though if you ever do more Split Enz. Their pre-Neil stuff is excellent.
2 legends, Paul Kelly one of Australia's all time greatest songwriters and lyricists, and Neil Finn the Kiwi's greatest. Definitely need a Paul Kelly week too! so many great tracks (with Leaps and Bounds my personal fave)
We do!!!
Beautiful
Who George or me? What do you think about the music?
@@TheThamesmen ha! Beautiful song I meant of course 🤣
Thank you, I needed this today, beautiful
Well I hope your day is great now and thanks for the support
Terrific song! Both performances were great -- thanks to Ross and Chris! If forced to pick one, I think I'd join with Alex and George that the sparser performance of just vocals, guitar and harmonica that Neil Finn and Paul Kelly gave was very, very special.
well done guys , no interruptions on the music. but we tried in vain to adopt him as an aussie , but he his a kiwi thru n thru. seen him lots live even in the split enz daYS. u need to see neil and paul at the Sydney opera house,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,and have u seen neil with Fleetwood mac? awesome!
Wait until the last day!
neil spent so much time in australia part of him is aussie
We are all earthlings :)
Saw Crowded House a few months ago outdoors in Perth. Neil Finn is singing as brilliantly as ever. Superb night. Check these two out singing Moon River... Wow!
Paul Kelly this Thursday at Freo Prison. Happy Days. ☮️
Your response at the end of the duo was exactly mine: A moment of silence to absorb; a deep breath out and a deep appreciation of the raw, beautiful talent on display. Thank you so much for sharing and reacting to these artists. Love your reactions and your banter and I look forward to your posts. Keep up the great work guys!
Many thanks my friend. Cheers Alex.
Neil is a Kiwi legend however Crowded House was ostensibly an Australian band from Melbourne. Loved in both counties. Ross from Redfern - probably Redfern Sydney - not NZ.
Four Season in One Day - a great Crowded House song was an ode to Melbourne.
I will check it out when I get time. Thanks for being here - Cheers Alex
Ty Guys for the double treat, both have engraved their place in Australia and New Zealand;s hearts. Each has given us such brilliant lasting songs that we cherish,
Keep Safe Keep Strong 🦘🦘🦘🦘🎶🎶🎶🎶💖💖💖💖
If we come on holiday will someone pick us up at the airport? Cheers Alex
I was only showing my 81 year old Mum Monkey the other day, she didnt remember it..
I did, a Buddhist fable each night, in a action show.. Monkey always learned something...
HOW MUCH GOOD MUSIC HAVE YOU HEARD IN THE LAST 6 MONTHS!!
HA HA.... There's such a deep well in each country... I need two more lives
Small detail fellas, but Redfern is a suburb of Sydney. Love all you do. Cheers.
Fuck up again!! Dam.
YES - love Monkey Magic. Was on TV when we got off the school bus at 5pm on the farm. On the weekend we would ride pushbikes to each others farms to hit each other with sticks we painted black and gold. As for crowded house - I would buy albums for my sisters then copy then onto cassette for me, never owned any of their albums myself until I bought the tribute albums performed by Kiwi and Aus artists 'They will have their way'. Looking at the song lists I only knew half the songs - turned out I could sing along with all of them. Thats how interwoven with daily life the Finn brothers had become for me in Australia.
Ahhhhhh Pigsey!
So beautiful, both brilliant performances, so glad you guys are liking these songs, and I agree with everyone else George, you should start with 'True Colours', you'll hear how different Tim and Neil are vocally and stylistically, both are awesome though (OK, Neil is slightly more awesome🤭). ❤
Blimey guv !
Wow 2 of my favourite artists together, haven't seen this before. Thanks
Great track great musicianship great voice. Growing up I heard crowded house growing up. At the time they were on the radio they were not playing music I was listening to. They were top 40 and I was more fm.
I was more AM than FM!! Cheers Alex
Beautiful and mesmerising
Thanks lads, thanks Ross and Chris
Loved that
Our pleasure!
That duet was sublime 🥰
A beautiful song, played beautifully. A huge call out to Nick Seymour on bass. His lines are stunning in their beauty. The Finns are a great musical family but so are the Seymours.
Okay now I need to see you guys react to Distant Sun🙌🙌🙌👏👏
I will check it out when I get time. Thanks for being here - Cheers Alex
This song is just...no words really .. it's one my first go to songs when all hope in love feels lost .He has another beautiful one Called .Fall at your feet .. So beautiful..Just love those guys for all the amazing music they have given us .
Ah. That song was written for you!
@@TheThamesmen Yes,it always gives me that stomach flip .When he sings ,you in your deep blue dress ,taking away my breath.Stunning .
@@Joshualuv13 lovely lyric
and they did a free pod cast true musicians.
True Colours
Beautiful relatable poetry.❤️ Try I fall at your feet
Such a beautiful song, both performances were amazing.
In the time before Thamesmen primal chaos reigned, people sought order but the Phoenix can fly only when it's feathers are grown, the four world formed again and yet again as endless eons wheeled and passed.
MONKEY!
Wow, hadn't heard Paul and Neil together. Brilliant. I'd love to see you guys do a Nick Cave and Warren Ellis feature week.
Up to you to pull that week!! Cheers Alex
Wow, how generous of them both 💜
What George and I..... well thank you! And what about the music?
Bloody fantastic, I had not seen this clip , 😮👏👏👏 , They do do a tour together and there’s an album recorded , chk it out boys 👍
How good do you have to be to have Neil Finn play and sing harmonies for you? Only thing wrong was I wasn't there to see these 2.
Good points!
For a Split Enz album, True Colours would be the best with Corroboree/Waiata being the second listen.
Agreed, it features brother Tim Finn's I Hope I Never th-cam.com/video/_wEFX-u2eKg/w-d-xo.html
I will check it out when I get time. Thanks for being here - Cheers Alex
Both versions are brilliant. Awesome Aussie musos 😃
Yes they are!
Try to get your hands on True Colours one of Split Ends great albums and another NZ band you should hear is Dragon with the Hunter Brothers sadly Marc passed many years ago from brain cancer if I remember right but they are a great bands too
I will check it out when I get time. Thanks for being here - Cheers Alex
his best song IMO.
I loved it - cheers alex
There’s a whole album, live of them performing together if you can find it
Outstanding again.
YAY!
Woodface, superb !
Ahhh, I loved your intro. I think you might have shown me the source of my fascination for Japanese culture by reminding me of Monkey (and, you probably won't know it, but Ultraman as well).
Anyway, we won't dwell on that.
Into Temptation is a beautifully written song. Forget the music for a moment and pull up the lyrics. I truly forgot how good these lyrics are. Honestly, you could drop almost any melodic acoustic guitar line behind these lyrics, and you could enthrall the audience. Georgous.
Bonus Video: Paul Kelly and Neil Finn, it probably couldn't get much better ... could it? I doubt it.
Chris the Curator, have started my Paul Kelly education early? I wasn't expecting such an amazing pairing. I can imagine Ross and you working this week up ... just another great collaboration.
Back to the real stuff, Neil was amazingly generous to allow Paul Kelly to take the lead vocal. I have never met either of them, but I feel they would both be incredibly humble. Perhaps their down to Earth personas allow them both to capture the hearts of Australia (and beyond). Neil and Paul killed this.
One more night? awesome. I am excited to see what tomorrow brings.
It may have been my idea to put the Paul Kelly performance in, with the reciprocal Neil Finn performance in Paul Kelly week...or it may have been Ross. He has pulled out some genius choices either way!
@@christhecurator It doesn't matter how it gets here, as long as it gets here.
Conversations and concession make the world go round. All that matters is the end result. And this was a wonderful double shot. Great stuff.
I love how you guys haven't gone for the one-week reaction. Neil Finn has so much more. I can't wait to see what is next.
Paul Kelly, I know, but I probably don't understand enough. I am looking forward to deepening my knowledge.
Thanks Len
Ahhh Chris - Ross said you pulled this week together - Bravo Chris!!!!!
Two geniuses...enough said! There is a whole live album of the two of them singing each other's songs so i'm sure there must be some live footage too.
Well George and I do try,,,,,
@@TheThamesmen Nice...i hadn't realised how well i had set you up for that🤣
@@mitchellbeston1033 You set them up Mitch and I will knock em down - Cheers Alex
Great reaction - thank you! Please please react to Ren - Hi Ren (and the rest of his amazing catalog)!!!
I will check it out when I get time. Thanks for being here - Cheers Alex
@@TheThamesmen I’ll be watching for it! Thank you!
These guys have an open Invitation to my weekend BBQ.
Who crowded house? Would certainly impress the neighbors
the beautiful thing about Australians and new zealanders is they never try to outdo each other
What about in Sport?
@@TheThamesmen aaaah yes we are kind of competitive but after a game call us for a sing along, nah dont call us, we like to get drunk after a win
