"An institution in their homeland, a two-hit wonder in the U.S., and, during the last half of their ten-year career, bona fide stars in the U.K. and most of Europe, Crowded House recorded some of the best pop music of the late '80s and early '90s."
Paul Hester of Crowded House took his life the other day. This post is dedicated to Paul.

Can't believe Paul Hester is gone.Crowded House where and still are one of my favourite all time bands and i never tire of playing their music.Their music was part of the soundtrack to my teenage years and helped get me through some dark times.
I hope You are Beating the drums up in Heaven Paul you will be forever missed!!
RIP

Very sad news
I firts heard about Crowded House whilst living in Australia. I was luck enough to see them a few times in the UK when I came back.
Undoubtedly one of the best groups ever, I'd rate their live shows as some of the very best I have ever .
If you've never checked them out before, I highly recommend them. Some genius lyrics
