Song title: Better Be Home Soon
Artist: Crowded House
Year: 1988
Why I like this song:
Previously, I mentioned being, at the time, completely oblivious to the superstar status of Michael Jackson. Because, in my young mind, these guys seemed to be biggest pop-stars I could think of. Their music was everywhere, everyone seemed to know them and the songs were truly unforgettable.
And years later, and no matter how many times I've heard this, this song still has magic. It is also a testament to Neil Finn's pop smarts, being able to latch onto something that speaks to many people. Granted the cynic in me would maintain that everyone would gravitate to the line "I know that I'm right / For the first time in my life" but whatever: This song still rules.
