Celebrate the 4th of July with Neil Finn singing about dogs

Posted on July 5, 2015 by Ralph Hanson

So I’m trying to be back in the habit of posting weekly to the blog, and I’m also trying to finish up my grading for my summer class, so I’m going to cheat and just post two Neil Finn (of Crowded House fame) songs about his dogs.

I’m sure you’ll forgive me because Neil is far more entertaining than I am.

Happy 4th of July!

Lester – Neil Finn acoustic solo

Lester is a song about a dalmatian he once had who was hit by a car but recovered from the accident.  To the best of my knowledge he’s never recorded it on an album, but he sometimes does it as an encore.

Anytime – Live performance with guest pianist from audience

Another lovely song about a dog who has had a traffic accident with a guest pianist Neil picked out from the audience.

      Thanks, Marga! I know the song – I have it on a concert recording – but I didn’t know it was about Lester.
