Huh? Maybe it’s the aspie in me or we have a different idea of what New Wave is, but Crowded House was mainstream pop at its finest. “Something So Strong” is could have easily been a Christine McVie song, and “Don’t Dream It’s Over” is pure pop perfection. Split Enz, OTOH, were New Wave, to be sure.
How bad could he suck? He received an OBE. To put that into context, none of the other Brits have been awarded an OBE, even with their storied career.
