"Fingers of Love" is a song by Australian and New Zealand rock band Crowded House, released in May 1994,[1] by Capitol Records as the fourth single from the group's fourth studio album, Together Alone (1993). The song peaked at number 25 on the UK Singles Chart. Its accompanying music video was directed by Stephen Johnson.[2]
"Fingers of Love" was performed by the band on their farewell concert Farewell to the World in 1996. On the DVD special features for the concert, guitarist Mark Hart reports that it is his favourite song to play. He states this is because of the full sound of the song and also because he performs an extensive solo.
Critical reception
Alan Jones from Music Week gave the song a score of four out of five, writing, "A subdued but admirable piece of work which rewards repeated plays by revealing its subtlety. It has a melancholic and hypnotic quality, and is performed with grace and style. Another hit."[3]
