New Zealand Music Month - 11/5/2009

The Finn brothers are true New Zealand music icons, with ownership of huge tracts of the Split Enz and Crowded House discographies, together with solo work, and it was a huge decision as to what to leave out, not what to pick!

But in the end we opted for something with a difference - the 1984 song Message to My Girl, played and sung as you may not have seen and heard it before - from the 1996 ENZSO tour where Eddie Rayner collaborated with the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra and the National Youth Choir and gave the treatment to a number of ENZ songs, including the aforementioned. So enjoy Neil Finn, Eddie Rayner on the grand piano, and a cast of thousands ...
