Planning on emigrating MTS? Loved them, and Crowded House. Looks like being Greta Scacchi's other half for a time may have aged old Tim somewhat

never saw CH live but have seen Neil Finn twice and he was fab!!!
Not so keen on old Tim though, Neil has got far more talent...

Would soooo love to see Split Enz!

the one album of CH I have never really learnt to love is Temple of Low men. I know that it has some cracking songs on it (Into Temptation) but it's just a bit less lovable than the other albums I find.

ah yes Into Temptation is another beautiful one

too many to count]

and I also have to go and make dinner (that's not a song )

Frenchgirl · 02/02/2006 19:51

DD's fave is Chocolate Cake 'Here comes Mrs hairy legs....'

GDG · 02/02/2006 20:05

Temple of Low Men is fab!!

Sounds cool - wish they were coming over here. I saw Crowded House in Plymouth when I was 18. I loved them. Didn't know about Paul hester either thats so sad. Hope Enz release a new album....
