They were such a Great Neo Psychedelic Band. Sorely Missed Now. We have so much crappy music being played these days that it's a relief to return to these Golden Oldies from the 80's. Thank You Split Enz.😊👍
I feel sorry for those that have never heard this or any genius Enz songs , it was these guys that started me on my bass playing journey and I’m still in awe of these guys . One word .. sublime
Sadly we are a small select group of music enthusiests who are aware of the existence of song. Could be a perfect fit for future film set around that time period.
I bought True Colours in 1981, after hearing "I Got You". I still love that track, but my favourites are Poor Boy +Nobody Takes Me Seriously Anyway. I wasn't so in to Crowded House, but Split Enz were excellent
I always adored Split Enz and cannot understand why more people don't; they were way ahead of their time. I see their style in so many other bands now. Even Eddie Vedder fell in love with their song "Take a walk Again". Anyway they will always remind me of my youth where I did not fit in but still felt cool lol.
SO tired of comments about bands being "underrated"!! These guys were NOT underrated at all ....EVER....they were MASSIVE back then and still are today !!!!!!!!!!! G'zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
The 80s! 16 and starting to find out what this love thing was all about! The chase! The breakups! The feeling i cant live without her😊 these songs were a big part of my life growing into an adult! I got you! Message to my girl etc Aussie/NZ music stood alone in the world! Thank you Split Enz still making my heart a little warmer❤
Poor Boy = top song! I used to play it all the time as an 18 year old driving to high school at top volume on the old cassette player ... gives me goosebumps still!
Me too, My fav Split enz song ever, I had a 120 Wat per channel stereo in those days, I used to play this full blast, you could hardly stand up in the room it was so loud and if you had drank too much it would make you sick, very clear but very loud, it made the hole house dance.
Yeah they were better than the Beatles so no surprise there -Beatles appropriated lesser known stuff and repackaged it as their own -at least spit enz were original
He had some technical problems at Caloundra but he worked through them and it was a great show - he's still got that off-kilter stage personality and, of course, enough great songs to have you coming away from the show going "huh, he didn't play xxxxx" but not feeling bad about it.
Memories! I recall seeing Enz in 1975 at the Tottenham Hotel in Melbourne, Australia where they were the main act supported by up-and-coming band, AC/DC .....
AC/DC played Marana Hall Hurstville in 1975, I went with my brother, entry was $2, we walked in from the side door, no charge watched them for 20 minutes, Angus jumped off the 6 foot speakers and nearly hit me and my brother with his guitar. I decided it was time to exit the place. They had only been around for a year or so. MEMORIES in the corner of my heart................
What an amazing song!!! God I had almost forgotten how much I love it!!! Been too many years since hearing this! I'm in my mid 40's and if it wasn't for my 12 year older brother, I probably wouldn't have known of this band. When he brought home this album back in the day, he played it and played it and my sisters and I fell in love with these guys! I can't stop listening this this song! Brings me way back to my early childhood.
Love the Enz.......not to mention the application of imagination by Eddie Rayner....great great player and unsurpassed arranger......and how did he draw from the well of sounds to conjure the unique swirling thingy he had going on......thank you to all the Enz, but particularly you Mr Rayner
The chord progression and the down beat was not the traditional sound of the times. So many did not 'hear' the creative sound they had. My father was a classic rock/blue style fan. And I do love that style as well. But he couldn't 'hear' the same sound(s) that I did of these masters of the new wave. I tried to teach my sons the understanding of chords working together and harmony (even off set harmony) and the both of them say as for today's music it doesn't have anything that compares to previous genres I have introduced them to. I appreciate TH-cam for allowing me to hear and experience a piece of years gone by.!.!. ( this is not a plug for TH-cam........However.......
SPLIT ENZ XXXX This Band Brings so much Nostalgia, from the 70s to 80s. I Find myself Listening to them quite often, X Brilliant Musik, One Step Ahead, " What more Can Be Said, The Rest is History. So. SAD. XXX Ice-Maiden. Thankyou X
I’ve heard a few spiltz enz cover bands, but they won’t play “poor boy”, I suspect because no one can replicate Eddie Rayner’s brilliance on the keyboard. Still love this song, all these decades later. I saw crowded house, when they did the secret tour of Australia, 1986? 1987? trying out their material, to find out if loyal spiltz enz fans, would like the new band, the new songs, - give them a chance. It was in a small adelaide nightclub, only 300 capacity, just in case it all turned pearshaped I guess. I couldn’t work out why it was in such a small space at the time, but at least we could all see the musicians. Brilliant. It was all the songs that ended up on the very first crowded house album. Eddie Rayner was there too.
I was very young back in the late 70s - early 80s. I remember seeing Split Enz's video clips on tv and guys dressed in weird suits & make up and thought "What's all this about ?". As I've grown older I've begun to appreciate their music much more.
I don't get it. Split Enz were weird and quirky presumably for artistic purposes. Were they hiding themselves behind an odd persona? Were they doing it for attention? Were they shy and being fake about why they really were? Why was Crowded House so bland when Split Enz was so 'out there'? Anyone have any answers?
I know this album has been remastered, but it must have been a boring job, because it was so well-engineered at the time. Honestly, it was the best-sounding NZ album for years. Blew me away when I first heard it. (Probably recorded/mixed in Oz, but still great for the time.)
Their early songs were recorded when they were in the UK in 1976. Partly financed By a NZ Arts Council grant. And later albums were recorded in Aust. But to clear things up a little. Their recording contract was with Polydor records NZ. Which was a subsidiary of Polydor records UK / Europe. It wasn't that people couldn't record and mix in NZ. EMI NZ had a new modern studio in Lower Hutt (Wellington area), as did the NZBC at Avalon Lower Hutt. And there was, Marmalade Studios in Wellington City, Stebbings in Auckland etc. The point about recording in Aust was....You qualified for Australian broadcasting quotas. NZ never had quotas. And at the time, in early 1979. Split Enz, in association with Polydor, were working with Mushroom records in Aust, to break into the Aust market. So there was an incentive to record in Aust. The Albums were released by Polydor records in NZ and Mushroom records in Aust. Later on, the recording thing didn't matter. Because under the Aus NZ trade agreements. NZ recordings, were included in Aust quotas. Anyway, it is slightly ironic, given that one of the top producers in Aust at the time, was NZr Peter Dawkins.
Excellent song, unfortunately I forgot about it until I heard it on the radio,now I've downloaded it I must have listened to the song 50 time's or more ☺️
Mate...FFS !! Underrated you say ??!! Get real ...these guys were , and still are enormous !! NEVER underrated !!! If saying that was an attempt to get likes , it failed . Sorry not sorry !!
If anyone recalls a young girl with long blonde hair walking down the street with her beatbox playing this song on repeat - that was yours truly lol I was a bit of a weirdo but hey, i knew a good song when i heard one : )
This to me was the best record done in this year that was my world turned upside down and I found my head has been stuck in crap for the last 34 years .
1980 is one of the most futuristic years in our history. This band Split Enz & Mi-Sex and hundreds of others that were caught in the New Wave net had this cosmic and far out sound. The late 70's and early 80's could be the pinnacle of Western culture. Then Devo's De-Evolution started to become evidentiary. The music today is very ordinary and sometimes horrible and diisgusting and that is the so called Rock bands, they are trying too hard instead of being organic, real and sincere. In the late 70's and early 80's I was out at venues seeing as many Bands as I could, 5/6 nights a week. Spent way too much money enjoying my youth.. I saw Mi-Sex many times, yet the gig that stands out in my mind is one at The Govenor's Pleasure which was in Dickson St The Rocks, Sydney. I can tell you that they are not forgotten, obscure or unknown in a lot of people's minds and hearts. They are much loved. One of New Zealand's finest. Great front man in Steve Gilpin. RIP mate
Would've loved to of seen split enz tour with reo speewagon back in the middle 80s, when they were both at there very peak,, two of the greatest, bands ever of that 80s era,, without a shadow of a doubt 😁😁👍👍John Martin Sydney Australia 🌏
Honestly the low quality of the video somehow adds to the vibe? This song will always remain deeply ingrained in my memory even when I forget the name that melody is just so iconic.
With all the great success this Band Had, I'd have to say this Tuuuune really stood out!! kinda special, but I always liked Tim's lyrical prowess . . . . . Fantastic Band!! 💗🍻🍻✌😄
Saw Split Enz do their first show in Sydney at the Bondi Lifesaver , myself and the rest of the room just stood there , completely stunned by them.. they were truely Amazing . This was the first of many shows by Split Enz that I attended ..
Je viens de découvrir ce groupe grâce à un commentateur de "Navajo knows" des Pixies. C'est super. Je le range aux côté de Monochrome set et Julian Cope and the teardrop explodes. Un petit côté "Devo" aussi...
17 in 83, we had no money n no jobs but the music n friends were just fab, miss those days
I had some jobs in the early 80’s. The trouble in the 80’s, was knowing how to get work, or the right qualification.
13 in 79, saw them live in a park near Uni Syd. I wore read jeans and a harlequin loose shirt!
They were such a Great Neo Psychedelic Band. Sorely Missed Now. We have so much crappy music being played these days that it's a relief to return to these Golden Oldies from the 80's. Thank You Split Enz.😊👍
This is still one of my favourite songs of all time. 40 years on, that’s saying something...
150 per cent
The memories of what this song meant to me still wells me with tears.
Same here
Agree!!!!! And I'm almost 60! LOL :)

I listen to mmm Adelaide, sometimes they play it
This is where crowded house atarted
Classic tune I have not heard for decades 43 years later still sounds just as good
What a Stunning song ..Not heard it for nearly 20 years it just popped up on my youtube feed ...priceless..
I love the keys on this song. Hands down my favorite song of Eddie's playing. His skill is quite brilliant. I love the mood it evokes 🎹 💖💖💖
This is my favourite song ever. Shame I was born in the mid 2000’s and never got to see Split Enz perform live. Brilliant band.♥️
Shit, damn, sorry. You even missed the millennial turn, not to mention the 80s.
Sadly we are a small select group of music enthusiests who are aware of the existence of song. Could be a perfect fit for future film set around that time period.

Forgot all about this beauty. Haven’t heard it for many years. Added to my playlist
Neil Finn is one of the best song writer's ever. Period!
There is one thing I truly hate about This band....
They are NOT Australian.
Saw Neil and Tim 2004 in Manchester. Life highlight
Except this was written and sung by Tim Finn.

One of my favourite Enz songs. Took me a long time to appreciate how good they - and Crowded House - really were.

Yeah they were better than the Beatles so no surprise there -Beatles appropriated lesser known stuff and repackaged it as their own -at least spit enz were original

I play this song every now and again. Great tune👍
Still hits a chord in my heart 😊
So many good times! Love you Split Enz! 💕🖖🏼
2021 and still loving this. Watched 30 mins of the VMAS in America and none of them had the talent of these guys
This is the first Enz tune that really got to me. I was 15 and heavily into ELO and Roxy Music and this changed my ears forever. Thanks Tim.
All of those bands are unique and go together well
Split enz were one of the best bands ever
Saw Tim in concert last night - he opened with this.
He had some technical problems at Caloundra but he worked through them and it was a great show - he's still got that off-kilter stage personality and, of course, enough great songs to have you coming away from the show going "huh, he didn't play xxxxx" but not feeling bad about it.
