This is a live version. Is it from Farewell to the World or one of the Frenz of the Enz productions? Anyone know?

An absolute GEM! The build up to the end of quite moving.
Speaking of friends at a funeral....while returning from the deep south to my Grandfather's funeral in Michigan, I'm standing there at the funeral home, during the viewing period the night before with my cousins who reign from Michigan, Oregon, and Boston....I wait for a break in the conversation and ask: "So, what are y'all fixin' to do?" Haven't lived that one down since.

Yes! I came to see if there were dozens of comments to that effect. Thanks for not disappointing me, Tom  |

A very rare not-particularly-interesting song from the Most Esteemed Crowded House.

This whole album is an 11! I can imagine a lot of people requesting this song be played at their funeral.

I'm sure every band starts hating some of their own songs at some point. It doesn't mean that everyone else should feel the same way. |
