    This song was played at my husband's funeral. He passed unexpectedly on April 12, 2019. We were married 20 years, and anytime this song would come on if he was at work, he would call me and let it play on my voicemail, or if we were home and I was in another room, he would turn the volume up loud so I knew it was playing. 💔/💗 Excellent reaction. And perfect timing for me.

    The core of this group was the Finn brothers (Neil and Tim), and they were in a band before that was a pretty popular new wave band (Split Enz). I remember how refreshing their sound was when this came out, as it was one of the earlier 80s pop songs that was more folk-influenced and got back to using real drums and guitars. They had two more albums that came out after this one that were quite successful. Great songs of theirs are : "Something So Strong", "Better Be Home Soon", "Chocolate Cake", and "Weather With You". You should check them out!

    There's a version of this song played live on their farewell tour, maybe their last show, i believe it's in Australia. The crowd sings it back to them perfectly, you should see it because it's quite an amazing performance. And this is one of those bands i never paid any attention to, bc i was a metal-head kid. But i think you would really like that one

    Great song. This song reminds me of Wellington, New Zealand (Mid 80's), because I was living there when it came out. I was dating my wife back then. Anyway, the lyrics say "In the paper today, tales of war and waste, but you turn right over to the TV page". New Zealand is far away from the rest of the world, so they didn't bother back then to even keep up with all the negative B.S. going on around the world, just what's on the tele tonight. This band is from Australia, so they were very popular in New Zealand. Reminds me of sweet fresh air, living on an island in the middle of nowhere. Loved the review guys. Thanks.😊

      True, but the main songwriter is from New Zealand, and even though the two other original members are Australian, one of them was in the earlier New zealand band split enz with the lead singer. later that the lead singers brother joined as guitarist/vocalist/songwriter. At best they are equally kiwi and aussie.

I am willing to bet Brad/Lex heard it from that same ad, but all 3 of us forgot the company using it.

    So many superb songs by Crowded House which others have pointed towards, this being one of their better known ones. They probably would have made a ton more if they hadn't split up at the height of their powers in the mid 1990s. Also take a look at the band Split Enz which was the precursor to Crowded House in the late 1970s-early 80s, the memorable track "I Got You" being one of my favourite tunes of the decade.
