Fangradio - episode 55: 25 February 2021: this time the Crowded House boys are looking their album Time On Earth, along with some other songs.

However, the performances of the songs were sensational, and I wonder if the subject might have been a bit of a downer considering the album being the first one after the passing of Paul. It would be interesting to see if they have more chat in the follow up episode about the album Woodface.
