    Others have said it, but Neil Finn is widely acknowledged as one of the great pop songwriters in music history. This was their biggest hit, but they had so many excellent songs... World Where You Live, Mean to Me, Something So Strong, Weather With You. Really great stuff.

      After being teased by Minchin that he doesn't even like Finn's music, McCartney joked back, "I didn't say that. I don't, but I didn't say that… I love his songs actually."

      @Paulie G Crowded House were formed in Melbourne Australia in 1985 by 2 Australians and a Kiwi (Neil Finn). They produced 2 world wide successful albums as that trio, until 1991 when Tim Finn joined for one year and one album, and then returned to a solo career. After that there were various other support musicians from other countries. By any measure around the World they are Australian, however as an Australian I yield that we call them Trans Tasman or ANZMUSICAL, or something!!!!!!!!!

      Crowded House wasn't a one hit wonder in the US, either; but you make a great point.
      I'm sure the converse is true.
      Heck, it's true between different regions within the US.
      REO Speedwagon is the first example that comes to mind.
      A midwestern band that was crazy popular locally. They finally got coast to coast recognition with Hi Infedelity (arguably with You Can Tune a Piano...), but it wasn't the music they built their fan base on.
      They really never seemed as good after that. 😪

    Neil Finn is rightly regarded as one of our most gifted songwriter. His Better Be Home Soon is something of an unofficial anthem here in NZ. I spent my teen years going to Crowded House concerts and Split Enz reunion shows. His brother Tim founded Split Enz and has had a successful solo career. Neil's son Liam is also a musician and was in a band called Betchadupa.

    Jayvee is one of the Very Few reactionists that actually researches the artists and appreciates their talent. Most reactionists just stream the same songs everyone else has already done and have little to No reaction. What a mind blowing experience it must be to absorb all this music in a short period.

    SO glad you reacted to this gorgeous song, Jay! Neil Finn is one of my favorite songwriters and musicians. Out of many, many other great songs, here are a few: "When You Come", "Private Universe", and "I Feel Possessed." Songs from his previous band Split Enz: "I Got You", "Message to My Girl", "One Step Ahead", "Give It a Whirl", and sung by his brother Tim Finn: "Six Months in a Leaky Boat", and "Dirty Creature." Split Enz was actually more Tim's band for most of their existence than Neil's. Tim and Neil are from New Zealand.

    I can’t believe you just did this song. I grew up in small town Ohio with good family friends the Miltons. Andy Milton who sang back up and played bass on the album. He would jam outside and sang to me when I bought my own guitar and showed it to him. His dad got transferred from California and Andy was pure talent. He went out to San Francisco later and played in a band called The Squares and they never made the big league. Sadly he left us early. He was my oldest brother’s friend, so when you’re 12 there’s a big difference when someone is 17. He, my brother, and I walked across the street cutting through a double lot to his house one night in the dark and he grabbed my hand for security. I thought I would die. Oddly I dream about him quite often. I guess the message is he’s someone I want to remember.

  • @andrewg3768

    Lead singer and writer is a fellow Kiwi, Neil Finn, his older brother Tim Finn also played in the band a bit. Both have done songs together too and Tim Finn was in a band called Splint Enz before this and Neil Finn came and sang in that bit too near the end of their existence. Croweded House broke up for ages and the drummer (an Australian) passed away. In recent years they have been playing again.
    This song made number 2 on the USA billboard charts.

      I first heard "Into Temptation" in 1998 when the Clinton/Lewinsky scandal was all over the news. Even though the song was written a decade earlier, the lyrics match up REALLY well with what happened - lines like:
      • "You in your new blue dress"
      • "The cradle is soft and warm"
      • "Into temptation, knowing full well the earth will rebel"

      Nope. He has said that he wrote the song at his brother's house. Paul Hester (the drummer of CH) was also living there at the time and had some friends over that were getting on Neil's nerves. He went into the room where his brother's piano was and wrote the song on that piano. He's never revealed who the song was written about. Just "someone I had just gotten into an argument with and loved very much."
