It was never like this, but it's how I imagine it might have been had I grown up in NZ and been the son of a rabbit farmer. This song (Death and the Maiden by The Verlaines) got stuck in my noggin and I couldn't find it on iTunes, so thank you YouTube. Watch a video by any eighties era band from New Zealand and you'll find the same low production values and touching innocence. I imagine that the band's mums were in a room off-camera fixing up a nice luncheon for everyone. Lead singer Graeme Downs? Now a professor at the University of Otago teaching music theory and composition. Fancy that.
