I've never even heard of that song... ???

I like "Better Be Home Soon" the best followed by the rest of their 80s works.  I also really liked "Chocolate Cake"


'Weather With You'

It's a shame it never became a hit in the States.  It's really quite a surprise that Crowded House never took off in the States during the 90s.  They missed out on alot of good songs  :\'(

  "Weather With You" is from their 1991 album Woodface which is nothing short of heavenly...

I'm a big fan of their work. It was a really hard choice, and although I picked probably their most noteworthy work "Don't Dream It's Over," I still find their other work nearly as equally good.

Don't Dream It's Over is my choice. However, Something So Strong was cool.

Crowded House of course did much better over here (they were based in Melbourne). My faves are still 'Weather With You' and 'Don't Dream It Over' - both which reached #1 and #2 I believe on the charts. The House continued to be successful until they split, though at least they gave us that legendary concert outside the Sydney Opera House in 1996, which over 150,000 people saw.

"Weather With You"... love it love it love it! I actually sing it most days.  ;D

Next choice would've been "Don't Dream It's Over".

I chose Better Be Home Soon because it was my homesickness theme song when I was living in the US in 88 and MTV played it a lot.

Weather With You was played at my friends funeral a couple of years ago so it now has a special meaning for me.
