Crowded House - Crowded House (1986) DVD-Audio.
 



'Crowded House' was the band's first and most commercially successful effort, with two of its singles reaching the American Top Forty - 'Something So Strong' and 'Don't Dream It's Over'. Reviewers commonly refer to the music of Crowded House as either new wave or something close to that - songs that are short in length, short on instrumental solos, and, to an extent, compatible with music videos. Much of that is actually true of 'Crowded House', but the only real description gets offered by stopping the talk, and turning on the music. The album is one snappy yet alluring melody after the next, music that variously earns the description of soulful, emotional, often a celebration but sometimes solemn. Beneath it all, one detects in Neil Finn's music a passion and meticulous respect for the art he is creating. The lofty quality of his work not only applies to the music - his deceptively simple lyrics always emerge from the music, never the other way around.
