Crowded House- Rare. "Distant Sun" (original lyrics) Live-Palais, Melbourne. 1992. 

So glad to see this, but so glad Neil rewrote the lyrics. If he had not written “I don’t pretend to know what you want but I offer love” I wouldn’t be married for the last 22 years.

Magic...simple.

It's so different! They sound so good though, but I love what the song became. It's one of my all time favourite songs.

Great to see Crowded House again, they were certainly the sound of the nineties for me I do miss them.

They opened with Distant Sun at the Roundhouse in London at their much delayed gig last June and it was magnificent. 🎸

Paul ON FIRE!

God they were incredible, and still are.

Oh the immense joy this brings-this song, this lineup, and sweet Paul 💖

This is magic & his ramblings. That’s me done for the day now 🥺🥰

This man oozes talent.

I really enjoy when, after 36 years listening to CH, a song comes and amazes me. I prefer the original version, but this one has a very special charm. Thanks for sharing. Greetings from México City.

Incredible to hear this "in progress" version - thanks so much for uploading this. Absolutely fascinating to know how Neil really raised the song to greater heights from this more conventional early version.

Sometimes he channels something unknowable ❤

Cool to see this early version of the song which would evolve into one of their absolute best! Thanks so much Peter and Mark!

Another real treat!!

Very cool! Love to hear this early version. You can tell it's almost there, but still need a few tweaks in terms of melody, phrasing, lyrics, etc

An early version - excellent. Thanks for sharing Marky!
