Sarah Blasko: Don't Dream It's Over

Well, it's been bloody ages since I've published anything here, so I figured while I have the motivation (and time) I'd stick an introduction on a draft I've had sitting here for ages and hit the publish button, so here goes!

I've [written about Sarah Blasko before](http://www.elvery.net/drzax/2005/12/05/quality-v-quantity-and-sarah-blasco/ Quality V. Quantity And Sarah Blasko) but I think she deserves another plug.

Over the weekend [long, long ago] I managed to finally download a recording of her performance at the Melbourne Commonwealth Games closing ceremony¹. The song she performed was one I'd been getting into since Christmas when I received the Neil and Tim Finn tribute album She Will Have Her Way . On that album Sarah covers the Crowded House classic Don't Dream It's Over simply beautifully.

1. Go get yourself a copy. The torrent will be a little slow because the number of seeders tends to range from 1 to 5 and the video is a high definition recording of Channel Nine's coverage. [↩]
