Nil Fun has featured a lot so far in the singles countdown: as a member of Split Enz, as a Crowded Houser and now as a solo person.
Really this song could have been a Crowded House or Finn Brothers single. He has such a clearly identifiable sound.
A sound that borrows from the best in the universe. The Harrisonesque guitar and Beatle harmonies are intact on SWHHW: a pleasant song with a lovely hook that centres around the title.
Hidden gem: Both tracks are also from the parent album (Try Whistling This); Identical Twin was subsequently added as a bonus track.
Neither stands out particularly - they are just superior songs, done by a master musician. Stuff this effortless takes a load of work!
