• After listening to "Time On Earth", the brand new Crowded House album, I have to say that I was filled with this sense of wanting to hug someone and glad to hear one of the most under rated bands in the world are back with some great new music. However I think people should remember that "Time On Earth" was originally going to be Neil Finn's third solo album but never the less it is lovely to hear Crowded House on the radio with some brand new tunes. "Time On Earth" is a mix of melancholic ballads such as "People are like Suns" and "Heaven That I'm Making", Quirky, almost Split Enz like songs such as "She Called Up" (definitely one to jump around to" and "Say That Again" and just plain beautiful songs with exquisite harmonies such as "Pour Le Monde". Tracks to look out for on Time on Earth are "Silent House" which is the track that Neil Finn wrote with the Dixie Chicks and it also appeared on the Dixie Chicks album "Taking the Long Way" (It is also mistaken as a track about the suicide of former CH drummer, Paul Hester when it's about Natalie Maine's grandmother and her battle with alzheimers disease), also the bubbly "Even A Child" which Finn co wrote with Johnny Marr. All in all "Time On Earth" is an album that will keep all Crowded House fans happy and definitely one of the must have albums of the year. Welcome back Crowded House...your fans have certainly missed you
