Somewhere deep inside

"Better Be Home Soon" is a 1988 song by Australian rock group Crowded House. Written by the band’s New Zealander musician and singer-songwriter Neil Finn, the song was released as a single in July 1988 by Capitol Records. The song appeared on the album Temple of Low Men, which was also released in July 1988.

"Better Be Home Soon" was performed by Crowded House in their 1996 charity performance Farewell to the World. As a song commonly performed by the band, this was to be expected, however the end of this version featured a country or polka style double-time feeling at the end, possibly in joking retort to some criticisms of the song when initially released that it was a bit "country-ish".

What’s wrong with “country-ish” anyway?
