New Crowded House Video - "She Called Up"

Children haters and Rage fans, click elsewhere; but for the rest of you lot, the new Crowded House video is a few minutes of unavoidably adorable lip syncing. Time On Earth's proven to be a serviceable return for the Finn and Co., but nothing makes the heart grow fonder than a bunch of cute kiddies mouthing a sunshiney pop tune. Here the "She Called Up" chorus performs the titular tune, some apathetically, others with shaker-wielding gusto. And as an added bonus, it gives us our first contender to dethrone the legendary "Since U Been Gone" Kidz Bop kid. Presenting ... this kid. OK, not quite. But admit it -- he's pretty great.

Time On Earth is out via Capitol.

Just one Finn, Neil, in this here Crowded House. His older brother Tim appeared only on one Crowded House album, Woodface, and one leg of a tour.

That was great, but it virtually impossible to beat the since u been gone kid.

I figured these kids would like Morrissey more than Crowded House.

I liked the big kid at the back - he seemed a little peeved about something. Him and the kid with the conga drum were just killing me. I haven't laughed that hard in a while!
