Who is the most famous N-Z singer ( or a group )

in the world ?
I ask you this question, because i'm french, and i have heard at the radio a splendid music, and i have not succeed to hear the interpret of this music, but i have succeed to hear that this song is of the most N-Z singer ( or group, i don't remember ) of the world ( i think it's an old group, 10 or 20 years, maybe more ).
Have you an idea ?
It's very important for me...

ps : in this song, the moments with the guitar was magnific

Forums: NZ Music,

probably the 1st place I would start would be with Spit Enz or crowded house they are the only bands I can think of as the "most" famous.. the timing is right...
any more hints or clues?

//Spit Enz

i heard an ad on the radio with this Australian guy talking and he was saying that they were australian
haha i laughed so hard

haha, yes and I heard/read/saw (can't remember which) someone said Pacifier were from Australia too. How stink is that???

Haha! yeah! like how can Pacifier be australian??

I'd put my money on Crowded House.

...although apparently they're Australian..

i have heard 3 musics of the crowded house, and i don't think it's them.
idem for split enz.
So there is an other issue :
a member ( not the singer ) of a famous band...
If you had any idea ( and i thank you to have tried :) )

Can you describe the music? Is it rock music, or pop, or folk, or kind of like reggae?

it's rock, i think...
and the man who sings has a "weak" voice, in this song. He almost whispers.

Neil Finn - Crowded House

ditto

Crowded House is most definately an Australian band. They formed in Melbourne, two out of three of them were Australian, and they played their first gigs there. You can't, I'm afraid , get much more Australian than that

Of course you can. If all the members of the band are australian, then it's a band that's more Australian than Crowded House.

CH belong to both countries.

Definitely the Finns!!

definately crowded house..
split endz close 2nd..
i was in melbourne just recently, i was amazed at how much advertising 8 foot sativa were getting on Triple M (melbourne and sydneys big as unfortunately too commercialized rock station), they're gona be huge in the metal world.. allready are but they'll get bigger..

Split Enz or Crowded House.
Hands down

thank you for your help, but finn, crewed cuts, etc.., aren't the band i'm finding.

You might be thinking of How Bizarre by OMC....its far and away the biggest hit ever to have come out of NZ. Sold several million around the world. Sold a million albums in the US too.

Bravo, merci infiniment !!!!

in english : thank you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and thank to all the forum, you are all very nice !!!!!
aaaah, i'm happy :-)

Happy to help

haha this is my random inout, how can crowded house be aussies! the thought is horrid it makes me sad. best nz singer, got to be neil finn, he has natural presence but tim finn does has a wild personality. neil would be mick jagger and tim would be keith richards.
