Something I Can Write About

So Crowded House’s new single “Don’t Stop Now” is now available on iTunes, and the band was on Conan O’Brien last night. So the hype is off to at least a mild start here in the U.S. Now, something about this single has rubbed me the wrong way from the start – something about Neil Finn’s vocals almost sounds like he’s trying to sing it in a way that sounds “wrong” to me. But I’ll be damned if I can get the song out of my head, so I can’t really fault it as a choice for a single, can I? And now I’m looking forward to seeing it live, so all’s well with the world.

The post title’s a line from the song, and I figured it was particularly apropos. You can go check it out for yourself at the band’s official site.
