“Hey now, hey now don’t dream it’s over …”
And for Neil Finn – best known as the lead singer of Crowded House – it’s not.
A quarter century after the band’s famous single hit No. 2 on the American charts, Finn is still making amazing music with his new band Pajama Club (he’s also still performing with Crowded House, too).
The New Zealand singer/ songwriter/ multi-instrumentalist has always been one of our favorite musicians – especially when he collaborates with former Smiths guitarist Johnny Marr.
Anyway, our jukebox is (as always) your jukebox. If you’ve got a song you want to hear, email us and we’ll be sure to get it plugged into the rotation. In the meantime, scroll down to see songs we’ve played previously …

LOVE that psychedelic guitar intro! Once again, Neil Finn shows us his ultra genius musicianship with Pajama Club. I’ve been a follower of his for years (Split Enz on Solid Gold in 1980 was my first experience haha), and finally had my dream of meeting him (and Crowded House) come true last August in Austin, TX. Wonderful concert, beautiful and gracious gentleman. Thanks for posting this video!
