a FB friend sent me this link after i made a comment about how much the brothers Finn resemble each other as they've gotten older, and i just have to say... WOW!! i had to pause it when they blended Neil's and Tim's faces together just when their mouths met, and it was amazing how much they look alike. i've never seen pictures of their parents before, but it is incredible how much Neil looked like his father at that point in the video. this is a great video and song, thanks for sharing it!
i know, i've already commented a few times, but i gotta say that this is one of the best songs to come from the Finn Brothers. not just the video, which speaks volumes, but the song itself which speaks to me even more. a HUGE WOW! i'm so impressed and totally blown away by this one. Neil, Tim... if you're reading... you guys are the bomb, you are my raison d'etre!
I'm here again. I've just made a healthy, informed decision that this is my favorite song with the name 'Finn' attached to it. I constantly use it as a reference point when discussing 'how to write a great song'. Vertical & horizontal melody maximum penetration, structure, vocal harmony, lyrics. 'Once again we'll breathe in the view', everytime I'm lucky enough to be somewhere beautiful in the world, I find myself humming this line, and I still haven't been to New Zealand yet. Someday I hope.
guess i have to comment one more time... i'm crying tonight at this song. so many things lost, so many things gained where family is concerened. this is such a beautiful song
for some reason, Crowded House and Neil Finn have had an emotional impact on me and my life, so maybe that is why i've been able to let go of all the crap from the past, and keep on keeping on. thanks, Neil and friends (or should that be Frenz?)
Absolutely Timeless. This album was released when I was little and every song has meaning in my life. Can't imagine a world without Neil and Tims music, if a third Finn Bros album was released I would die of happiness. Another thing, when's the next CH album going to happen? Has it been shelved? I hope not because I've only been waiting six years (!)
Is this the band that did the cd "From the Well"? If so where can I get it? I loved it!!! The band let you download it for free but I can't find it anywhere.
i know i don't know you and your situation, but i've had my own situation with my sisters and parents. don't let those situations stand in your way, and always try and rectify any bad feelings between you and your siblings. I've been called "the peacemaker". we're all good now, but there are still issues that come up. i hope you and yours can mend the fences and become one again, even while remaining single (if you know what i mean).
quick question... are all the kids in the video (chasing bubbles, throwing leaves outta the basket, hoola-hooping, spraying champagne from a bottle, etc.) from old Finn family videos that have been spliced into this one? some of the old shots are obviously old family videos (Neil and Tim in the little car, Neil (i think) being picked up by his dad, Tim (obviously) introducing his little brother to perform in front of other kids). but i cannot tell about the other shots. educate me, please?;-)
god i love this song, and i've just heard it! LOVE Neil's hat trick too. i have to wonder, is that him at the end as a child doing the same trick?? that black hat looks so sexy on him! :-)
I loved this song since the first time I heard it ^_^ You could quote every line in something other than Helvetica. That's just how ridiculously beautiful this song is.
Thank God. I thought the world was void of song writers. "f" American Idol and the like. We need the Finn Brothers and more like them. God Bless the song craftmen.
So, now this has become one of my all-time favorite albums. Gentle Hum marks my Dad's passing, and so much of the album breaks my heart. I'm tearing up as I listen to this song. All is not lost though. Me and my older bro have forged a great relationship, and if all goes well I will be playing on stage with him around Thanksgiving.
When this album came out, I really like a few of the songs, but I just couldn't get into a lot of the songs. A few years later, after trying and failing for years to reconnect with my somewhat estranged brother, the rest of the album really started to hit home. You see, my brothers and I are all musicians, but my youngest bro, perhaps the most gifted of us, stopped playing. And we just can't be in the same room without tension anyway. We will probably never have what the Finns do and make music
Lyrics Over these green hills Blue electric light Always in my blood Forever in my eyes Black window space A basket made of flax Broken mirror view Let your eyes relax Mist On my glass Watch it all Come to pass Once again We'll breathe in the view It's part of me Part of you Now my voice won't sing And my tears won't cry Your disciple waits For any good advice Our place in time It's not set in stone And we'll still be here Where the cows come home Mist On the glass Watch it all Come to pass Once again We'll breathe in the view It's part of me Part of you And it has to be clear Inside my head And I'm still in a dream In a dream that won't end Once again We'll breathe in the view It's part of me Part of you Mist On the glass Watch it all Come to pass Once again We'll breathe in the view It's part of me And part of you And it has to be clear It has to be clear Inside my head

that is a seriously good film clip!
I love it, and the song's brilliant too
can't go wrong with the Finn Brothers!!
Two wonderfully gifted brothers who have given so much to the world of music and have NEVER forgotten where they've come from and who they truly are.
One of my favourite clips ever - fantastic song and inventive video
This is a brilliantly crafted song. Every detail. When they take it up a key at the end, it knocks my socks off. It doesn't get much better than this.

I think my heart has melted, this song is so beautiful.
everyone is here,,,,,,,, is one of my best albums ,,,,,and some shit nicked it

Two of the greatest songwriters of all time!
Aotearoa!
I'm a Finn Brothers fan but I've never seen this video before. And really good it is too.

Their dad joined in!
Only 44k views is obscene!!! So much crap getting millions of views and this musical perfection sits here on UA-cam basically ignored.
Is this the band that did the cd "From the Well"? If so where can I get it? I loved it!!! The band let you download it for free but I can't find it anywhere.
music magic happens when these two collaborate and sing together whether they like it or not
correct
newspaper51 love anything these two fab bros can do . 4,ever xxxxx they kept me alive when almost died 2011
Yeah there's a documentary on Neil Finn on youtube somewhere and it confirms that these pictures are The Finns when they were kids! :-)

And it has to be clear...the FINNS' are my absolute favourite...above The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Simon & Garfunkle...all the music I love. XX
Great Great song, °°°°°
Greetings, Christopher
It's hard to pick a favourite from the Finns, but this has got to be up there...
They mimed the lyrics backwards to sync up with the vid, great stuff, I love the Visconti version too..
Priceless :-)
Great song! Love the Finn Brothers nd this song is awesome
So, now this has become one of my all-time favorite albums. Gentle Hum marks my Dad's passing, and so much of the album breaks my heart. I'm tearing up as I listen to this song. All is not lost though. Me and my older bro have forged a great relationship, and if all goes well I will be playing on stage with him around Thanksgiving.
Love these two wonderful brothers!
Nicely put....so true,so true.
That is ridiculously good
In young and I love them probably because my dad likes them and he played their albums a lot
Brainwashed? Good :)
fantastic album

@anythingfinn
Right on. I've nothing against the Beatles but The Finn's could give them a master class I reckon
Not really. You wouldn't have any Finns without the Beatles. They learned everything from the Beatles and took it and improved. All good.
Makes me homesick for the Kauaeranga.
The Brothers Finn were on 60 Minutes? When was this?
Some of the progressions on this tune groove so hard! 2:10-2:18 is just solid!!!
Lyrics
Over these green hills
Blue electric light
Always in my blood
Forever in my eyes
Black window space
A basket made of flax
Broken mirror view
Let your eyes relax
Mist
On my glass
Watch it all
Come to pass
Once again
We'll breathe in the view
It's part of me
Part of you
Now my voice won't sing
And my tears won't cry
Your disciple waits
For any good advice
Our place in time
It's not set in stone
And we'll still be here
Where the cows come home
Mist
On the glass
Watch it all
Come to pass
Once again
We'll breathe in the view
It's part of me
Part of you
And it has to be clear
Inside my head
And I'm still in a dream
In a dream that won't end
Once again
We'll breathe in the view
It's part of me
Part of you
Mist
On the glass
Watch it all
Come to pass
Once again
We'll breathe in the view
It's part of me
And part of you
And it has to be clear
It has to be clear
Inside my head
In young and I love them probably because my dad likes them and he played their albums a lot
Breathtaking music - so beautiful and strong.
Great song, great video!
The Feel of Family.....
Love this!
Great video from 2 of the most under rated musicians in the music biz.
Not really underrated though, very highly respected in fact
