Ever since the demise of New Zealand popsmiths Crowded House back in the late '90s, brothers Neil and Tim Finn have been content to plough their furrow far from pop's bustling farmstead. Everyone Is Here, the pair's second full-lengther, lacks the full production and grand, Beatlesesque melodic ambitions that saw songs like "Weather With You" and "Fall At Your Feet" become transatlantic radio hits--but it replaces such scope with a smudged, intimate acoustic style that suits Neil and Tim's songwriting talents almost as neatly. The album's finest moments are mostly placed towards the top end: "Luckiest Man Alive" is the sort of conscious rock gospel that Stereophonics' Kelly Jones would kill to be able to write, while "Anything Can Happen"--a billowing, U2-style epic of scintillating guitar and cavernous drum-crashes is seemingly placed to prove that not all is trad chez Finn. As an album, it probably won't spawn any MTV-hogging video classics--certainly, that was never the intention--but Finn fans in search of a mellow listen should find Everyone Is Here hits all the right buttons. --Louis Pattison

Disembodied Voices.......2007-04-21

I know 'Everyone Is Here' is a few years old, but it's good to get this out before the new Crowded House disk drops later this year. This CD got lost in my collection and I never really played it much - and never at an entire sitting. But for the last few weeks it has resided in my car and much of the time in the player. Most of the stuff here is not radio accessible. At least not the way radio is currently programmed. There are no hit singles. I'm not sure there were any singles - none in the U.S. anyway.

'Everyone Is Here' is not a Crowded House disk. Nor is it a Split Enz record. Heck, it's not even the same as their last disk together, 'Finn Brothers'. For those unfamiliar, both Finns were in Split Enz and appeared together on one Crowded House disk.

Personally, I am a fan of Tim Finn's, and he is clearly the winner in this outing. He gets to play off his more popular, more accomplished younger brother, Neil. Tim does not posses as keen a knack for the popular song and his voice is not as polished. So his songs, like "Luckiest Man Alive" get a good, probably better, recording than they would have on a solo outing.

Neil does good with his main songs also. It's no surprise "Won't Give In" and "Nothing Wrong With You" lead off the disk. They are seemingly the strongest, but the more you listen to the rest of the disk, there is some really good stuff out there. It just takes a few listens.

I'm really liking "A Life Between Us". The lyric provides a river as a metaphor as a relationship. That has been done a lot in music, and usually it is about flow. But the words here take a new stab at it and succeeds: "we stare at each other/like the banks of a river/and we can't get any closer/but we form a life between us". The melody helps.

And though the Finn boys are from New Zealand, the song "Homesick" is a perfect metaphor for America and the politics of the day - 3 years ago and even today. "First you made me hungry/then you feed me something I don't want/...then when I complain/I get thrown out of the restaurant" and "Homesick for the country that I'm living in". I can relate.

Technically they don't have the best harmony (i.e. "Disembodied Voices"), but it seems but it really work. And yeah, there are some clunkers, but I am really enjoying the disk and sorry it took me so long to find it, even though I had it the entire time.

It's slow parade down a dusty road.......2007-04-02

Having been a long time fan of Tim and Neil Finn from the days of Split Enz (and having seen Tim Finn solo and a Crowded House show on a night when Roger McGuinn played with them), I am always ready to hear new music by them. That would qualify to anything either together or apart. This 2004 duo album has everything you would expect from them; shimmering brotherly harmonies, excellent songwriting and the occasional dip into sly humour ("We're all God's Children/and God is a woman/but we still don't know who the father is").

I certainly have enjoyed this CD for awhile now, but I kept waiting for the moment when Neil and Tim would cut loose with something with a bit more bite to it. "Anything Can Happen" is the most uptempo thing here, while most of the rest of "Everyone Is Here" sticks to simple arrangements and acoustic settings. It fits the brothers quite well and makes this CD a pleasant experience. But I am not used to pleasant from a pair of men that have often delivered brilliance.

If you are willing to settle of Tim and Neil delivering gentle ruminations on relationships and family, then this will please you. And there are some excellent, melodic tunes to be had here (my favorite songs are "Nothing Wrong With You" and "Disembodied Voices") with some great Beatles leanings, but I kept waiting for more. As a result, I maintain my rating of the CD with three stars; competent and average, and certainly worth a listen.

The Finn Bros, sophomore album debut.......2006-10-02

This is the Finn Bros second album from their self titled album release in 1997. They were also the front men for the now defunct 'Crowded House' eclectic rock group. The Finn Bros hail from New Zealand but now call Eastern Australian home. 'Everyone is Here' is the brothers new album after 6 years quietness. I first listened to 'Won't Give In' their new single hit song on one of our rock stations in sydney and was drawn into its beautiful sound. That's why I purchased this album.

In saying the above, I did enjoy this album immensely. The Fin Brothers are definitely talented and have a firm rock sound frame to their groove. All the songs have a different sound to them and show the unique skill of Neil and Tim's vocals as they were both singers on this album. This album was balanced and had a good listening quality to it. My other favourite songs from this decent album were 'Disembodied Voices', 'All God's Children' and 'Edible Flowers' which was the quietest song on this album with a malancholy feel to it.

'Part of Me, Part of You' has been played alot on Sydney radio and deservedly so with a nice lyrical message and a feel good beat. The album ends with a sombre mood in 'Gentle Hum' that sounds like your in the Southern USA.

Overall this album for me was enjoyable and a pleasure to listen. The Finn Bros are easy to listen to and rock to or sing along to. For any serious rock fan out there - add this album to your collection.

It sounds So-o-o Good!.......2006-07-22

I was never a Crowded House fanatic -I was more into Split Enz, if the truth be told. But credit needs to go where credit is due. This album is simply a delightful collection of harmony songs, put together by some of the creative heirs of the Byrds and the Beatles. The sound of this album is just lovely - it floats. Roll over Jayhawks and tell the Eagles the news. Miles better than the last Finn Bros production. In all honesty, the songs are probably not as classic as some of the earlier Finn Bros stuff, but this still makes the grade.

Finn Brothers Rock! (In a sensitive sort of way).......2006-02-19

I don't know how I ever found these guys- a friend of mine made a mix with a "luckiest man alive" and I fell in love. Something about cheesy 80s singers going all acoustic and unplugged makes me swoon. This cd was a permanent fixture in my 5 disc -shuffle while pregnant (this was the days pre-IPOD). Any fan of acoustic singer/songwriter folky types will like this. Great harmonies- interesting lyrics- with catchy melodies that aren't overly simplistic. It's right up there with Wilco and Richard Thompson in my collection. SO GLAD I FOUND YOU- luckiest girl alive!

A good collection.......2007-05-14

Unlike the huge names, collections by Allen are not many - plenty of his opera performances are recorded, but there are only a few collections. My voice teacher recommended I listen to him to understand better how to deliver power without weight, something we've been working on. Yes, it's all in English, but that's fine, and the quality of Allen's instrument comes through very well.

A Musician of Great Dignity and Style.......2005-07-27

Sir Thomas Allen is one of the enduring baritones who has been able to move throughout the operatic repertoire and the recital stage with intelligence, informed characterization, and immaculate musicianship. To have a recording of some of the roles he has inhabited at this point in his career is a gift (this CD was recorded in 2003). To have the added challenge of retaining the stature of the roles while sung in English translations at the request of Chandos is a credit to his abilities and communicative powers.

English is a difficult language to make musical, though saying that abruptly is countered by the fact that some of the most beautiful operas in history are by Benjamin Britten, a composer who truly understood his native tongue and kept it as fluid as the soaring melodies he wrote, as Thomas Allen proves here in 'Billy in the Darbies' from Britten's 'Billy Budd'. It is the other major arias from Korngold to Wagner to Tchaikovsky to Rossini, Bizet, Mozart, Gounod, Verdi, Thomas, Strauss, and Lehar that Allen proves that English translations do not detract at all from the performances!

For those purists who prefer opera sung in the original language (and for those who don't even need supertitles in the opera house!), then this recording may provide a temporary barrier to respecting Allen's singing. But once caught up in the ease with which he moves from style to style and comedy to drama, it is hard not to relinquish old preferences and not be wholly impressed with the beauty of the voice and the warmth and dignity of this fine musician. Highly recommended. Grady Harp, July 05

Passed the "Opera in English" test with flying colors........2005-07-04

For me, the test here was Figaro's Cavatina, from Rossini's Barber of Seville - sung in English, as is this entire compilation of 14 operatic favorites, sung by baritone Sir Thomas Allen. Could he pull it off? Could Chandos pull it off? The answer is an unequivocal, unqualified yes! The secret in singing classics in English, that were written and scored in another language, is in three things: pacing, vocal agility and appreciation for "fit", and what greater test for tongue and timing than Figaro? When you listen to this one song, you will understand why Chandos and its benefactor, Sir Peter Moores have such a passion for their Opera in English series. Sir Allen's voice is a matured unmistakably settled baritone voice that contains a lifetime's worth of understanding of the music and words he imparts through his magnificent delivery. For example, when he sings, Tchaikovsky's "You have my love and devotion" from The Queen of Spades, he delivers a smooth and deeply emotional rendition that lacks nothing in translation. Wagner's "Turning my gaze upon this proud assembly", from Tannhäuser is another example of how fine, full orchestration behind a seasoned voice that waxes eloquent with every phrase, can create a mood of relaxed familiarity with word and music, that may be lacking when sung in another tongue. Great Operatic Arias, serves up a smorgasbord of tunes that are familiar, made more so by the care and attention given to creating a place for the Opera in English series in every home library. The mood here is romantic, relaxed and with few exceptions consistent throughout. If you haven't heard Opera in English, this might be a good way to start, given the fact that the listener gets to sample how different composers might sound in other than German, Italian or French. You might be surprised to discover that when done with care, as is obviously the case here, the sound is about as good as it gets. As an added bonus, the booklet that comes with the CD is full of pictures, libretto in English, and biography that gives us a good insight into history of the singer and his identifying rolls.

joel graduated from my highschool... three classes ahead of me! he's got a great voice and the band is so great.

You won't be dissapointed!.......2004-12-24

I have been to three of their shows. They rock so hard and definitely put on a good show. The drummer is amazing! Joel's voice couldn't be better and the guitarists' rock. Musically, they are so talented. They have tempo changes and key changes in their songs that are so beautiful. Yes, this CD is short but it is so worth it. If you ever get a chance to go see them in concert, don't miss it. I can't wait for their new cd to come out.

Amazing band.......2004-12-22

I played with this band once and they definitely have an amazing sound. As soon as their full length comes out they will be huge. This is a great CD that you should buy.
