He co-wrote “Do I Ever Cross Your Mind,” although I don’t know if that was hit.

Mick needed younger and bigger fire power, to keep FM selling out arenas.

Neil is only five years younger than Billy, so I don’t think age was a major factor.
Mick’s made it known that he still wants to make another album (as have Christine, Mike, and Neil). Billy had a very fair chance with the band but wasn’t a good creative fit, based on Mick saying that he always felt like he had to reign in Billy’s country tendencies. If you had a legacy pop-rock band, who would you rather have in the driver’s seat: Billy Burnette or Neil Finn?
