Song written by Neil Finn and Tim Finn.
Originally recorded by Crowded House and released as the third single from their 1991 album Woodface. At the APRA Music Awards of 1994, the song won Most Performed Australian Work Overseas. The song was intended to be part of the Finn Brothers’ unreleased 1990 debut, but after Capitol Records found the recordings, they were merged with a Crowded House session to become Woodface. Neil Finn explained: ‘Ultimately, the theme of the song is of course, that you are creating your own weather, you are making your own environment, always.’
Kim Wilde performed the song during a session in BBC’s Piano Room, broadcast on BBC Radio 2 on 4 February 2025. She was supported by Ricky & Scarlett and the BBC Concert Orchestra.
