SOME GREATER PLAN (FOR CLAIRE)
by Crowded House
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Lyrics:
Your life is just beginning
The war it never ends
Here’s a reminder
We can look forward again
The spark is returning
We made eyes across the room
You are gorgeous and absurd
Tell me have you heard the word
Resurrection
We gave up on the world somehow
Now we better start believing
If all that we can do
Is fill the room
With a song of love
I’m there if you want
To feel a part of some greater plan
Do you want to heal the heart
Of this broken man?
You’ll never be lonely again
Would you like to say yes
We’ll clean up the mess
Sad children of the earth
Tell me have you heard the word
Revolution
We gave up on the world somehow
Now we better start believing
If all that we can do
Is fill the room
With a song of love
I’ll sing it if you want
To feel a part
Of some greater plan
Do you want to heal the heart
Of this broken man?
Do you want, do you want, do you want
Do you want, do you want
do you want, do you want
Do you want to heal the heart
Of this broken man?

I keep coming back to this one.., as an old "anything Finn" fan, this is absolutely one of the most beautiful songs Neil has ever penned in my opinion...
Neil Finn is one of the best songwriters since The Beatles. He should be a household name but sadly many people have no idea when you say his name.
Agree..Always thought, they could take it up to the Beatles..
Dunno, I reckon Chad Morgan was a bit better...
I do. Love him.
@@sampreece Sure they did.
IMO he is at least as good as Lennon or McCartney, maybe better. And I am a lifelong Beatles fan saying this. No idea why NF/Crowded House is not more widely known, the music is excellent.
His songs are not of this Earth. They are other-worldly. Perfection.
Neil Finn is just a songwriting god. Crowded house will always be my favourite band, and the Finn family as a whole are such a creative force. This song really pulls on my emotions 💙
When I saw CH in June, Neil said this song was related to his father. During WW2, Neil's father was serving with the New Zealand Regiment (I think) in Italy. Somewhere in Italy, Neil's father and his mates, all enlisted, snuck into an officer's canteen. He met the beautiful daughter of a diplomat, way out of his league, and they had some kind of fling. And later, Neil's father would talk about his fling and it would annoy Neil's mother. :)
Great story. I was hoping this was the story of his mom and dad. :)
I’m envious you got to hear this song live. I’m sure there wasn’t a dry eye afterward.
Thank you so much for the back story. Great songs always contain more than we hear
@@Roadie-1963I cried buckets when they disbanded back in ‘96 and bought the Farewell to the World DVD as a reminder of the gigs I wished I’d been to but didn’t make. Cried more buckets when I got to see them in Manchester at the intimate Castlefield Bowl in June ‘22. They played this, along with a zillion of their more well known gems. The song has so much space in which we can all find our own meaning and message. A true work of art.
When people are young, they get to fall deeply in love ONE TIME. That's what this songs about. That one true time where your heart is open and exposed and beats to the same rhythm as one other person. Never to be repeated.
This is one of Crowded House's finest songs - it makes me teary every single time. The minor chords, the melodies, the words, and now the visuals. Pure perfection.
I am the same. The picture of dad, the beautiful Greek touch. The smile of Neil, as his dad ( Elroy) looks on. The beautiful girl. The lush Melodie’s and harmonies. The lyrical poignancy of war and love making things better. The beautiful mind of Neill.Finn. Thank you all so much for the gem of a song and video . Tears and joy …
Really poignant song. Had it come out in the 80s, it would have become a worldwide hit.
@@3000EJS What a load of crap
Pure perfection 💯 agree , it's gorgeous
Adore this.
I adore this song and the beautiful story behind it. Also, the first photo of Mr. Finn-absolutely stunning how much Tim looks like his dad. 💖
A couple of people have said this and I'm a bit confused - that's Elroy Finn, the drummer, acting as his grandfather, but maybe I'm missing something else?
thats Elroy , Neils boy but a Finn none the less
Tim would be a bit old now to play the young Mr. Finn.
Elroy looks the part...dead ringer!
Absolute standout of a song. Great lyric, great harmonies, just perfect. Nearly 40 years a fan and you still do not disappoint. Thanks for all the great music.
Strangely this was one of the last songs from Gravity to truly grab me, and now it’s probably my absolute favourite - a contender for my top 10 Neil Finn songs of all time ❤
No surprise the best track by Crowded House for years!! Co- written and performed with Tim! Just the best partnership ever!!!!
My fave track from the new album. This is when Neil rises out from the normal song writers of the world to produce something very special. Beautifully done CH. Mr Finn senior would I’m sure be proud.
The good thing is that there are still some bands from the 80s and 90s left. These are the real music, deep from the soul. Thanks for it!
Wow. A timeless classic. Musically, visually and vocally. Really feels like it takes you by the hand from the opening bars, holds you right through to the very end, and then it doesn’t seem to end, like a perfect love. This is special. What a band. What a songwriter.
A typically beautiful song from CH and the video works great. Having been aware of the songs inspiration it's really nice to see Elroy embodying real life history. ❤
Absolutely beautiful ❤ How can one song wrap an entire lifetime in its arms and offer it up, in all its timeless vulnerability? I think this heart just got broken again ❤
This beautiful song conveys hope that our broken hearts can stitch together again. Thank you, fellas ☘️
i probably wouldn’t have found this song had not it said it was for claire. now it’s one of my favorites 😂
Crowded House, you made me cry when you performed your 'final concert' at Sydney Opera House all those years ago. I am overjoyed that your are back together making fantastic music once again.❤🎼🎶🎵🎸
another masterpiece. holy smokes!! love it.
Holy smokes! That photo of Richard Finn at the very beginning - at first I thought it was on old photo of Tim!
What a beautiful song - I first heard this when I saw CH in Atlanta in August. Such a wonderful tribute from Neil to his Dad - makes me a bit teary eyed, as my grandfather is no longer with us (he was also in WW II). So nice that Neil is performing this song with his sons as part of the band.
This song is a great example of why Neil continues to be my favorite songwriter of all time - he somehow manages to pull all of your emotions out of you with his music. I don't know where this all comes from, his music just keeps getting better.
At first glance I saw Neil but yeah on second the top half is Tim but lower half part of Neil.
Cant tell you how many times l've listened to this. Bloody gorgeous song. Melody and music perfect 😍. One of my CH favourites now
This is floaty, gorgeous and makes my ears happy.
That bridge. Those harmonies. Neil's smile. Elroy in the spotlight. *Perfection* ❤❤❤❤
Saw them in Glasgow at the Ovo hydro. Fantastic. As soon as I heard this song I knew this is a timeless classic, full of meaning and love.
Beautiful.
Ourstanding! I've been humming and singing and playing this for months. Saw them in Atlantic city. Magic
I've been getting into a Split Enz rabbit hole recently. I was aware that Neil and Tim had this band before Crowded House, and that they were celebrated down in the Southern hemisphere, but it had passed me by how brilliant and oddball they actually were. How they made the most memorable songs out of the wildest of chord progressions. Of course I love the current incarnation of Crowded House, too. I'm saying this because there may be more out there, who were, like me, a little oblivious to the magic of Split Enz. I can only advise you to seek out their videos. Their discography is back on Spotify and itunes and you can find many videos re-uploaded on youtube.
So happy to see this post (forgive my grammar, very old crappy keyboard) in college I was the oddball as I did an entire paper and presentation on "Dirty Creature", some in the class liked it (I think) I got people to talk about their biggest fears but in an anonymous way. I got to see Neil perform this at a free concert in San Fran shortly thereafter, I thought I had died and gone to heaven!
How can you not love Crowded House🏆✨ love ALL your albums … so many songs on Gravity Stairs that bring JOY! Thanks guys ❤️🌏❤️🕊🎶
A beautiful story of two in love,meaningful in so many ways.Finn you've done it again.Thankyou for the many songs you have written.Great harmony and to hear every word in this song .
Hello Neil thank you for your reply to my comment in which I had written regarding the beautiful song .
What a nice tribute to Richard Finn.
Absolutely Gorgeous,,,,❤️

@Neilfinn420 I'm grand, thanks for asking, especially after listening to your magnificent and feel good songs. You guys are like a ray of sunshine on a cloudy day and so very good for the soul. Enjoy your day Neil ❤️❤️ from a very cold and foggy Ireland 😄😄
Crowded House. I've been a fan since 1986. 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Best song from the album 👍
another Masterpiece.
Such a beautiful song which works on so many levels.
A beautiful story to remember and treasure 💓 love Maistrato 👏👏

Neil and team, this is lovely. Blessings.
Brilliant album. Thank you CH.
God what a beautiful song - love you guys for years, decades
Love that this song includes the Greeks and their Bouzoukis!! Nice sound and groove. Just need some baklava and Ouzo to go with it!! LOL!! DIg, DmGrk
MARAVILLOSA!
Gracias muchachos, cuanta emoción y melodía fantástica. Toda mi vida amé vuestra música.
Brilliant band , beautiful tune, and video 😊❤️It has a 60’s feel
Gorgeous ❤
Thank you . looking forward to Glasgow next week, and Barcelona later this month. Your music 🎵 makes me smile 😊
Tim is the spitting image of Richard! Loved seeing you in Oregon, hope you come back to the States again soon
I was at that show in Bend. They sounded amazing. Great music and sharp witt really made it a night to remember.
Up there with "Not the Girl you think you are". Neil and Tim on top form.
Tim actually did not write any of these, as was nowhere near the band at the times of writing. He was only in crowded house for a year or two (1990-1991), writing only for Woodface.
@@rfcalm he wrote this song (Some Greater Plan) with Neil 🤩
'Some Greater Plan' was written by Neil and brother Tim. They borrowed from their father Richard's war diary, drawing on a memory of a whirlwind Italian romance.
Oh How I Love Crowed House.
I'm not just A Fan I'm A Friend ❤
A beautiful video with an even more beautiful song, a perfect match for a standout from Gravity Stairs that I listen to on repeat about 5 times when I hear it. It has such atmosphere with the Bouzuki lead in and tone of desperation and desire throughout 👍😎
This is simply perfect. We are blessed to have such music and visuals
Best song on the album by a mile. ❤
Lovely song, great video! Well done to all the filming group. Result is great and really touching video!
Beautiful 🙏❤️
@Neilfinn-01 Hey hope you're well 👋 Thank you for the music 🙏❤️
Beautiful ❤️
Beautiful as ever, crowded house are a constant in the world of beautiful music ❤
Right, I think it's safe to say, it's official, a New Zealander (Kiwi) I'd the finest songwriter in the world.
Absolutely. This just works on so many levels .
@@kypdur4746 love them both
*sigh. Just beautiful! Can’t believe I missed the tours, biggest fan, biggest regret!
Magnificent, cathartic and moving. Thank you. It's fabulous.
Can't wait to see you guys in Newcastle in December and at Byron Bay in 2025.
