Northern Wish

Some songs are perfect. They transcend the band that created them and become bigger than the band will ever be as an entity. “There She Goes” by The La’s and “Hard Sun” by Indio are two such examples. “Throw Your Arms Around Me” is the best example in my opinion. The band who wrote the song is Hunters and Collectors. The singer/writer is Mark Seymour who is the older brother of Nick Seymour from Crowded House. It is a beautiful song which has been done well by others but never equalled by anyone.

Here is the actual video for the song from the Human Frailty album:

Here is a version by Neil Finn from Crowded House:
