“Don’t Dream It’s Over”
Crowded House fashioned in 1985 in Melbourne, Australia. They’ve launched eight albums, together with their most up-to-date one, Gravity Stairs, which got here out final month. However on their very first album, they’d a giant hit with “Don’t Dream It’s Over.”
Crowded Home made “Don’t Dream It’s Over” with Grammy-nominated producer Mitchell Froom, who they went on to work with a number of occasions. For this episode, I talked to frontman Neil Finn about how the music was first written, and the way it developed along with his bandmates and collaborators within the studio. And we talked concerning the profound connection individuals have had with the music over time.
