Split Enz

Split Enz were one of the most successful New Zealand musical acts of the 1980s. Formed in the early 1970s and variously featuring Phil Judd and brothers Tim Finn and Neil Finn, the band would go on to achieve chart success in New Zealand, Australia, and Canada ‒ most notably with their 1980 single "I Got You" - and build a cult following elsewhere. Their musical style was eclectic, incorporating influences from art rock, vaudeville, swing, punk, rock, new wave, and pop. Split Enz established a reputation for a highly distinctive visual style, thanks partly to their colourful, offbeat costumes and hairstyles. more »

She's unaware, she'll never see me stare
Standing in the safety of my room
Oh I don't know, whether she comes or goes
But I know I'll be seeing her quite soon

Ooh, Iris
The girl with the lovely name
I feel desirous
I got that girl to blame
Ooh Iris

I'll be brave, put all my fears away
I'm hoping that I get the chance to meet her
Sun or rain, I wait here every day
I wonder if I'll get the chance to kiss her

Ooh, Iris
I'm stuck at the window pane
I feel desirous
I got that girl to blame
Ooh Iris

Ooh, Iris
The girl with the lovely name
I feel desirous
I got that girl to blame
Ooh Iris (repeat til fade)
