Welcome to my channel! This is a music reaction channel. For the longest time, I've loved creating content on the internet. I started off with a gaming channel right here on UA-cam, which eventually turned into a Twitch gaming channel, but as time has gone on I've evolved into doing other things on UA-cam. For years now I've wanted to create a music channel on UA-cam, and recently just figured "why not?", so it’s time to give this a go! Give me any suggestion you have for music reactions, and I will do my best to get around to them. As music has fallen further out of my life, I figured this would be a great time to get reintroduced to music.

I consider them to be New Zealand's greatest band.
Easily - it was a band full of superstars. I’ve been listening to them for 40 years, and I’m still blown away by their inventive compositions.
No, the album used a live drum kit - no drum machine. The keyboards (Eddie Rayner) are amazing. He was / is a very talented keyboard player - a lot of their songs that use fast arpeggios he played without electronic assistance. Check out the song “Bullet Brain and Cactus-head” for one of the most off the wall keyboard solos.
Growing up as a poor boy this resonates with me! Great song and band!
Oh my goodness. I’d forgotten how incredible this track was. I just hit the subscribe button because I love your appreciation of this awesome group. Keep it coming! I’m a happy kiwi 🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿
You made a former 14-year old Kiwi girl very happy! The sounds of my teenage years growing up in New Zealand ❤
I see you’ve listened to “I Got You”. “One Step Ahead”, “History Never Repeats”, and “Message to my Girl” are all great.
The Finn brothers later collaborated on the Crowded House album _Woodface_ -- which is chock-full of wonderfully melodic, and lyrically dense, tunes.
'Woodface' is amazing. They also released two great albums (in 1995 and 2004) as The Finn Brothers.
Message To My Girl and I’ve Got You are musts off this album. I owned the picture disc with colored lasers on it. 😁
My second favorite Enz song (after “The Devil You Know”). You should also check out “My Mistake” and “Things.”
The Devil you know? DD Smash?

The Managers Ska band from Auckland covering THAT WAS MY MISTAKE
By Split Enz
Love the part of the song where he sings ‘ keep losing you’
To continue the metaphor, if someone's in a long-distance relationship, they may be too poor to afford to visit their love. Split Enz were great. Basically two different bands over the years - very arty and prog for the first few years of there existence, then switching to a new wave/pop sound (after original leader Phil Judd left and was replaced by Neil Finn). So many great songs: "I See Red", "I Hope I Never", "Message to My Girl", "Shark Attack", "Straight Old Line", "Give it a Whirl"... and the whole True Colours album is ridiculously good. One of the best bands ever to come out of my homeland of New Zealand. This line-up had Mal Green on drums and Noel Crombie on additional percussion, plus the Finn brothers, Nigel Griggs on bass, and the band's secret weapon, the great Eddie Rayner on keyboards.
You gotta do Dirty Creature. It's wild.
I saw them in the early 80s a Fiesta Gardens in Austin Texas. It was an outdoor concert by Town Lake. I remember how good this song sounded in the summer evening air.
My hubby's and mine favourite Split Enz song! However, now you need to go back to the 70s, when they started out. They were so quirky, you'll see what I mean. I suggest,
I see red
That was my mistake
Official videos please?
Ooh this was unfamiliar even though I'm a Gen X music nerd. I was only turning 8 in 1980 and that era just keeps on giving. The punk, postpunk and new wave hooked me via Ramones, Talking Heads, Police, Clash, Cure, Psychedelic Furs, Social D, Husker Du, Replacements... Also I saw Weird Al in 1984!
BTW Neil Finn was with Fleetwood Mac in 2018
In the Album Split Enz, History Repeats, is is stated that the story refers to a boy that falls in love with a real allien Girl from outer space. With Six Months in a Leaky Boat my favorite Enz' Songs.
Saw Split Enz 1982 at the Capital Theatre in Sydney, fantastic.
hey there is another version of this song well 2 in fact ,,from ENZSO enzso is split enz with the new zealand sympathy orchestra Tim Finn & Eddie Raynor put it together but with various NZ musicians on vocals covering there songs ,now Dave Dobbyn sang on Poor Boy & honestly he killed it on that his vocals really suited that song is was like it was written for him ,check it out Dave Dobbyn Poor Boy Enzso..
Mate, you've gotta do:
DIRTY CREATURE &
I HOPE I NEVER
These guys are great musicians
Great suggestions!
I remember there first hit in 70s
We liked to visualise the meaning to the song directly..(even though the detail was not explained, its easy to complete). about a socially awkward guy who obviously spends most of his time in his bedroom playing with technology and believes he has discovered his true love speaking to him in odd UHF frequency that only he can understand originating from a far far away strange female alien from deep in space, of which she's so far away he knows he will never be able to visit her because of the vast distance between them... this kind of imaginary story together with perfect lyrics and a perfect song makes for a great experience to grow up with in NZ....
Great record with a rather haunting feel to it.......or is that just me.
It's not just you!
Eddie Rayner’s keyboarding is classic
❤❤❤
