Lyrics:
Is it real
Or a fiction of your mind
Am I gone
In a fraction of your time
You mistake my real intentions once again
Want to be near you, wanted to hear you
My words alight
Like paper drifting in the sky
Not enough to be a witness of your life
All along
I was hoping we would come of age
Walking around you
Want to surround you
But I can’t get close enough
Can’t get close enough
Wanted to find you
Wanted to break through
Life's imitation
I’ve been away too much
I’ve been locking it away too much
I’m here tonight
And I’m gone again
You pick up your bags
and you ready to fly
Pick up your bags
Baby come on
Wanted to hear you
Want to be near you
But I can’t get close enough
I can’t get close enough
Want to surround you
Want to be near you
But I can’t get close enough
Wanted to be near you
Wanted to care for you
But I can’t get close enough
Wanted to break through
Life's imitation
I’ve been away too much
I’ve been locking it away too much
I’m gonna call you
Life's imitation
I’ve been away too much
I’ve been locking it away too much
I ‘m gonna call you
Life's imitation, blue heaven
Are we gonna have some teenage summer
Are we gonna have some mad new year
Are we gonna have some teenage summer
Am I gonna have some mad idea
Are we gonna have some teenage summer
Am I gonna have some mad idea

This song is classic finntastic goodness. I love how Neil wrote a double verse and then a small pre-chorus before hitting us with the magical chord change into the chorus. It's just extraordinary songwriting which is the norm for Neil Finn.
Liam - when you were 1st born, my friend and I were @12-13 years old. We called a phone number (collect from the U.S.!) on the back of the Time and Tide album. The person told us about your birth! I don’t know if you’ll even see this, but I had to share that story!
Man, I absolutely loved this. Liam is such an intelligent, charming and witty guy! Great insights into the sounds behind the song. Would love to hear more from him. Can't wait to hear them live - Sydney Opera House, here we come!
Aw, I wish this was longer. Love hearing both the individual tracks and the stories of why they sound the way they do.
Love this idea. Could do this with the whole discography and I'd watch every one of them
This is defo another classic Crowded House hit, in 20 years, this will be viewed as Fall at your Feet and other classics. Loving your influence on new CH music Liam thumb👍
Liam longtime CH fan here. Saw the band at the Beacon Theater in NYC in 1990. Love your contribution to the new album. Burn Up The Road is incredible. The Howl is my favorite new song.
Thanks for taking the time to share this. 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
I would LOVE to see more videos like this! Thanks Liam! See y'all in NYC!!!!!
Love this little fun snippet 🎶❤️🎶 Thanks Liam!
Brevity is the essence of wit. Liam you definitely are witty! Love this video, so interesting to see how it was made. See you in Vienna VA next month. ❤
That was wicked! Cheers Liam 😁🤘
The vibe, was a vibe ✨️
(and vibraphone 😉 ).
Ladyhawke! This makes this track even better knowing she’s singing on it. Really enjoyed this Liam
Dad strum 😂
❤❤❤❤❤

Love this video, please do more similar - also if you guys would consider putting a video up with the chords appearing as the song is played along for us novice guitarists it would be wonderful
This was fun! Thanks!
This was neat. Thanks for making the vid.
Liam should do a cross over with Wings of Pegasus, the music TH-camr who does a lot of breakdowns of well known songs.
Liam you are a very funny man
It's still "Life's Imitation" on the CD
Awesome! Can you send me the stems Liam?
Always great to get a new Crowded House album, but it's been 10 years since your last solo effort and I don't understand
As a gay man I’ve also seen some beautiful holes in my time
😅
