Although Finn is my favorite songwriter, I don't really like this album. The One Nil version of it is better than this re-fiddle, but still it's not the best. Needs more energy.

"You and me have always gotten through
Anyone can tell you that its true
You feel it every time you drive away from home
The headlights hypnotise and they take you off towards the sea
Into the night you run away with thoughts you cannot hide
Vacant eyes cant describe my hunger
For your billowing arms
Mother I cant help thinking of you
Take this dull ache away"

Word! The worst of Neil Finn beats the best of 99% of every other song out there!


Did you just say "Word"??? I didn't realize it was suddenly 1988.

i love the guitar on this one. Dreamy; groovy. It reminds me of Rober Fripp, of King Crimson fame. Anyone know who the guitarist was?

By the way, the automagic link w. each song to amazon info is great. How about another automagic link to the clientele on the album that the song is from? Such a link would answer questions like mine above.

Not my favorite off One Nil, but still brilliant. This man could write a masterpiece with a spoon and vacuum cleaner...... one of the best songwriters of our time! Amazing harmonies!

I like Neil. But, I'm finding this particular song a little long and boring frankly.

Love the song but not this version. Sounds like it's on the wrong speed or something, or that Neil has a stomach ache. I'm getting seasick.

Neil Finn! Yes! As another post said, there are better songs on One Nil (or One All, as it got labeled here in the US). I could listen to "Anytime" anytime, and check out the live version on Neil Finn and Friends Live - Seven Worlds Collide.
