Theres nothing better than a talented person with an acoustic guitar, period.
Yes, there is, period.
Totally!
so you dont hear hear the bass line?
@@tkomauer Everything I hear is either voice or acoustic guitar, simultaneous, single take. I'm guessing that you don't play guitar.
love it, im 63
Neil Finn, never young, never old, always cool.
Isn't he? He's so fookin talented too.
And always with great hair.
So true.well said.
Love his hair too
Well said.
Mr Finn proves in a fine way that the Amin-G sequense (at o.43) works just as wel as the Amin-Emin in the pre chorus which is also played by some ...Always been a big Crowded House fan myself,I find it fantastic to see him doing other people's stuff...Cheers ...
Neil Finn covering David Bowie, absolutely perfect.
Yeah so true Neil has been one of my best since my childhood my friend Mary and I pray to God to give you a lot of beautiful days, and I hope God bless you to have a great day today, So where are you originally from? I'm from Overbrook 🌺🌺🌺
Pretty good
The little fill on the A string is awesome!👍
i try it with this song awesome
gave it a crack myself, so good...fek I love da toob :)
What about the fill on the c string ha ha
Love it
Hits that high note with no fear. What a legend.
@josephcrsn You should have stuck to a previous comment of yours about not being able to sing. Bowie had a range of more that 3 1/2 octaves.
Neil Finn covering anything is good. But, Neil Finn covering Heroes is AMAZING!
One of Bowie’s best, which is really saying something, performed by one of the world’s best ballad writers and performers.
You could parachute this man into any city in the world carrying nothing but a guitar and he’d draw a crowd in minutes
Perfectly said Muttley
Too true. That statement could describe his career at ant point.
@@Undercoverbrotherfromanother Absolutely. Not just an outstanding musician, also a brilliant composer and lyricist.
I was a fan of Split Enz from first contact, which happened for me in 1979 or 1980 or thereabouts at the age of 9 or 10, living in the cultural wasteland of Perth, Australia. Would still rate _Message To My Girl_ as one of the greatest songs ever written. Musically and lyrically flawless.
He'd draw in a crowded house
That was actually quite good, this dude should be in a band
What an apt song...a legend playing a legend's song ....
EXACTLY! THIS IS PRICELESS
Yep amazing!
We can be heroes “just stay at home?”
Selsey Reclaim wish I could, we domestics at the local hospital are being asked to put our lives on the line every day
Couldn't have said it better. Neil is definately one of my musical heroes and David is the other.
I hadn’t listened to the lyrics so closely before. Brilliant Neil.
Neil took requests on Mixlr, Fang Radio broadcasts back in 2020... this was my request ❤
Yeah, that's talent. Off a desk mic. Sharp and glorious.
I wish I lived next door to him.
That Most Certainly Was Bowie's Immortality Coming Through And Hitching A Ride With Neil Finn.....Great Ride.....Well Driven.
Neil Finn and Crowded house didn’t get the accolades they deserved. Amazing song writers and performers. “Intriguer “ and “Time on Earth” are masterpieces. Every song great. Oh and “Together Alone” too ...
As a lifelong Bowie fan, I found this so satisfying.
O
Mana Same here. It’s cause he respects the original, and is do excellent on his instrument.

Hearing this live during the broadcast was probably the best thing that happened to me the entire pandemic. This is an absolutely epic performance and one of the best interpretations of this song
It was incredible. What a talent.
Apart from looking like pebbles the angry cockatoo you absolutely nailed this perfectly old fella. Love it!!!!!
We may have lost Bowie but we still have Neil Finn.
To me.. Finn really makes this song speak.
@@dedetudor. Agreed, it is an excellent version. His voice holds up to a song with a pretty testing range and of course his guitar playing is superb.
Ummmmmm - thats like saying we may have lost an 8 course 5 star banquet meal, but we still have a sausage roll....
Since the pandemic when I heard this for the first time, it’s become one of my all time favorite performances of any song ever. Nicely done, sir. And thank you.
You forgot the L
I remember this performance during Covid lockdown. Thanks Neil it made the days more bearable ❤
I can still picture him in a kilt on stage at the Arlington Theater in Santa Barbara in the late 1980's. . . Neil is .still making great music and creating mesmerizing performances.
Sharon saved the day in exactly 6 seconds. That's pretty slick!
I am a massive David Bowie fan, and a Massive Neil Finn fan, what an absolute treat. FAB Neil, thank you x
Amazingly, It didn't sound like Crowded House.
Neil Finn is one of modern popular music's greatest composers, with a body of work that very few can come close to. Lennon and McArtney, Bacharach and David, Bob Dylan, Elvis Costello, Thom Yorke, Neil Finn - giants of our times. Maybe the least pretentious of them all, Mr Finn remains a largely unlauded and undervalued musical genius
I love that it doesn’t matter how big of a rockstar someone is…at home we all are the same. 😊 This looks like my setup at home!
Thank you Neil and Nick for your kindness. I worked for EMI /Capitol Canada a while back. When Temple of Low Men came out. Working for a record label can truly be shit when you really believe in music and a certain band and you must deal with the "pleasure" of music business politics.. You made my job feel worthwhile......And I think of Hessie often...Cheers....
Was anyone else singing the backing vocals like me? “I remember”... Thank you Neil. Well done.
Yep!
Oh yes. I can now say I harmonized with Neil Finn. Hehe.
Me too. I’ve been completely obsessed with the song since I first heard it on the live David Bowie album, Stage, in 1980 (it was a yellow vinyl version).
@@JPHOT100 I first heard it on TOTPs in 1977. Bowie seemed like an alien in denim. Then I kissed my first love to the tune. Ever since its tingled my heart
Thought we all were, weren't we?
The Finn Brothers were my first concert, was the biggest fan as a little kid and the music is still awesome 15 years later. Thank you!!
*I'm aware this is a cover, I'm speaking generally haha
Simple , Direct , Natural... Brillant !!!
Seriously the best thing I've seen so far in isolation. A legend singer songwriter singing another legends song. Absolutely beautiful

She Will Have Her Way. One of the most underated songs of the last 50 years. Great cover tune to play!
Agree. I covered that on my channel with Only Natural.
th-cam.com/video/6ha8EKOAw_0/w-d-xo.html
Crowded House's debut album was released in 1986, the year I graduated from HS and I literally wore the tape out. Yes, I said "tape" for all you young'uns out there- as in cassette tape. 🙂 If you want to hear a perfect album look no further. Anyone else have any special memories of that time??
My Lockdown song. How many times did I play it? I don't know.
You are the real deal…SIR…100%…the cheeky smile at the end is a gift to all…thank-you 😊
I love how certain guitar players are so distinctive you can't mistake them for anyone else. When I hear this acoustic version, I realize how true this is of Neil. No production or accrutriment and that distinctive sound is there. I loves it.
I, I wish I could sing..like Neil, like Neil Finn can sing. ;) How humble, how talented, how awesome!
Some people make a hard piece look easy. This is a great sounding arrangement and I see every complicated little thing I hear and he doesn't miss a beat. Profesional
I have never heard Neil sing better than this, getting better as he gets older, and can you imagine being his neighbours you wouldn't be telling him to turn the music down. Brilliant
I heard Mr. Finns voice -analyzed it, and was instantly jealous. Now I see him and consider myself lucky to have all five senses. Thanks for the tunes.
We actually have 12 CRANIAL nerves. This VERSION of this song sets them all on fire!
How can he achieved that acoustic tone? Buttery! Great!
Saw Crowded House back on the Woodface tour. To this day, it was the most enjoyable concert I've seen. Every one of them just seemed to really enjoy playing. Can't wait until Neil comes back around the states.
Bloody awesome cover from one amazing musician, (love the natural grey hair, Neil), Bowie was and always will be an inspiration to many people. Neil Finn you are one hell of a poet, along with Paul Kelly
Hats off to you Neil. The octave up in the singing made my day. Stay healthy, all the best from germany
I like Bowie's German version of "Heroes" from the film "Christiane F. Neil does a great cover here though. He is a wonderful artist.
Going up that octave is something mortals can't do!
Gave me goosebumps!
so many have covered this song, one of bowie's best, and most just dont capture bowies spirit. but wow, Neil, yours , is fantastic! the very best cover of this fantastic song, ever. well done mate!
th-cam.com/video/6ha8EKOAw_0/w-d-xo.html
anyone would struggle with those tones. not bad at all. feeling it....
One of the best song writers does a great job on Bowie. He's my hero.
Wow man !!! You nailed it rite on perfectly. Still have that awesome voice after all these years at 100% and didn't lose any of it. Thank you Neil Finn. You keep inspiring and surprising. Thank you for this redo and I'm amazed. I keep playing this over and over. If i could meet another musician this would be the man. Have a good day Neil, family, and all your fans !!!
Allisha I pray to God to give you a lot of beautiful days, and I hope God bless you to have a great day today, So where are you originally from? I'm from Overbrook 🌺🌺🌺
Neil Finn ....always a massive tallent
So good to hear Neil perform again! If there's one remote duet I'd love to see it's Ed Vedder and Neil. Just putting that out to the universe 🙏🏼
This performance makes heroes of us all. Real art makes us feel
Fabulous Neil Finn. I miss live fangradio SO MUCH! 😢💙
Such a great tribute to David. He is smiling from above
Thanks Neil, keeping Bowie's spirit alive helps keep us alive.
Yeah Pat my friend and I pray to God to give you a lot of beautiful days, and I hope God bless you to have a great day today, So where are you originally from? I'm from Overbrook 🌺🌺🌺
Rock star hair. love the strumming pattern
The book of Bukowski poetry on the desk is a little icing on the cake of this little piece of youtube joy
indeed, let alone that it is being used to support the microphone into a better angle for a better balance
I love this man! More than 30 years have passed and he still sounds as pure as ever!
Thank You Neil. Thank You David. You brought a breath of relief to many people's lives in these though times
Neil & co, greetings from the island of the wizard of Oz.
We were born in the seventies and grew up with you in the 80's here in the sunburnt country. You and yours are inextricably part of us and our formative life experience, and we consider it a greatest blessing 💜👌
We love you Neil. Sending Aloha from Honolulu :)
Hey! It's the dude from Split Endz... What a career. His entire discography plays on shuffle in the soundtrack of my life
I don't know why but his song makes me cry each time it is properly performed an I'm crying right now... This magnificent song deserved to be song interpreted that way, thank you sir
Me too :)
When I heard this song at the end of "jo jo rabbit" the movie my eyes just started tearing up.
Yeah me too I am trying to play along with Mr Finn but I have to keep stopping because of the tears. 👍😎
Yes...me2
@@user-uy6vz2ye5g what's wrong with us people? Me too!
Just beautiful. My son who is disabled refuses to listen unless Neil is singing. He has all the albums. Hehe. His 3 favourites are Kiss the Road of Rarotonga, Instinct and Nails in My Feet. 😊
I am here again. My path has lead once more to heroes.
His house doesn't look very crowded.
Phil UK Net His talent fills up a lot of space.
I called on him the other day. He opened up the door and I couldn't believe my eyes. (he wasn't wearing a blue dress either)
@@artysanmobile You're right, it's only natural.
@@davidcopson5800 Perhaps he'd been cooking in his kitchen?
@Heir apparent It's the world where he lives.
High parts are beautiful. Really have to commit to them. Neil is for everyone.
@josephcrsn Nope. The highest note in this is B4.
A brilliant rendition of a brilliant song, by a brilliant musician. Nice one Neil...
1993 Together alone tour..... missed it through illness. But you always kept me going and still do. Just got over COVID. Put on some Crowded House and immediately my mood lifted. Keep going Neil. You’re great!!
My favorite Bowie song performed by one of my favorite artist/songwriters. Thanks Neil.
Hands down... my go to cover of this song. Brilliant, Simple and Elegant. Beautiful.
th-cam.com/video/6ha8EKOAw_0/w-d-xo.html
I Like This Acoustic Version.
Love this guy don't need a crowded house you no
you rock Neil!...
So rock and beautiful my friend Jeannette and I pray to God to give you a lot of beautiful days, and I hope God bless you to have a great day today, So where are you originally from? I'm from Overbrook 🌺🌺🌺
Rediscovered Neil Finn about 4 years ago. Being an 80s teenager it is great to hear him still going strong!
I just got on meds for a med procedure but I'm in tears a fucking grown 44 yest old man crying
An incredibly talented and prolific singer/songwriter honoring another incredibly talented and prolific singer/songwriter. Well done Mr. Finn.
And after this virus passes, I will yet again "get to know the feeling of liberation and release".
All smiles! THANKS. Happy good hair day!
So beautiful song my friend Shannon and I pray to God to give you a lot of beautiful days, and I hope God bless you to have a great day today, So where are you originally from? I'm from Overbrook 🌺🌺🌺
He's just bloody amazing
Here is my view: most songs,music,albums etc. are specific to a time and place. I have carried this music through my life at good times and bad, youth - birth of my daughter-middle age and now whatever late 50’s is and it is still as vital and important to me than the first time I heard it….thank you for making my life significantly better Neil !
I doubt there is a rock singer on the planet, at his age, that can still sing as well as Neil Finn does....He's still got it!
Talent is talent. Long live Split Enz! Thank you, Neil. I could listen to you all day play anything.
One of my favorite musicians playing one of my favorite performers
Fantastically sung Mr Finn....Can't wait for you to return here in Yorkshire.... It's been a while.... Until then to you and all the family stay safe.... We miss you.
I watched this with the screen inverted to make his hair even better. Quality tune and player. Cheer Neil.
Neil is amazing, beautiful song from Bowie.
He sings it BETTER!
So simple and pure. Neil, hat's off to you mate. Magnificent.
A legend paying homage to another legend ! ❤️
Neil Finn singing my David Bowie‘s heroes.... brilliantly and like crowded house and split ends before them Neil Finn is also a legend.... brilliant brilliant songwriter....xxxxoooo
So good. So pure. So touching. For ever and ever my brother, for ever and ever.
Listening to this in lockdown in Te Awamutu. Thank you Neil.
So beautiful song to listen always my friend Michael my friend and I pray to God to give you a lot of beautiful days, and I hope God bless you to have a great day today, So where are you originally from? I'm from Overbrook 🌺🌺🌺
As a Kiwi - I feel qualified to say that you are a true Kiwi legend - God Bless
Love all of Neil's work but I really love the cool looks he gives to the camera. “Yea, I’m cool.” Great song perfectly done..
wow neil just wow
True talent with just one guitar amazing thank you for all your beautiful music over the years Neil I salute you.
Fantastic Neil! Also fantastic that you use cables for internet! Good example for all of us!
Fantastic cover of a classic Bowie track, thanks for posting..............Great sound Neil.
Bowie and Finn bringing much needed comfort. I can picture David hanging on Neil’s shoulder humming along in quiet approval.
Fantastic Neil . Sung with conviction , heart and soul brother . You’re a hero ✌🏻
Neil Finn: A total genius songwriter, a true musician
This song usually makes me cry and think about the people who aren't in my life anymore.
But this made me smile. I don't know why.
This is beautiful
❤
