Enzso
ENZSO was an orchestral project started by former Split Enz keyboardist Eddie Rayner. It combines the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra with contemporary pop singers to perform Split Enz songs.
History
The project began with Eddie Rayner. He wanted something more from the old Split Enz songs, and doing orchestral arrangements seemed perfect. Creating the arrangements on his synthesiser, with help from Dave Woodcock, Eddie approached Mark Keyworth of the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra to ask the orchestra to play his arrangements; Keyworth gladly agreed.
With conductor Peter Scholes, the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra, Dave Dobbyn, Annie Crummer, Sam Hunt, Neil Finn, Tim Finn and the New Zealand Youth Choir, they recorded and released their first album in 1996 simply titled ENZSO. Again in 1999 ENZSO recorded a second album titled ENZSO 2.
A film of the collaboration was made by director Justin Pemberton called ENZSO: Dirty Creature.

Lucid Dream
by: Anasazilucid dream
walking in a dark road
followed by an angel
falling from a ba dream
where everything seems real
standing at the crossroads
i’m running out of breath
lost within this underworld
i cannot wake up
i break the mirror
still can see my face
no way to get out of that place
searching a lost key that can take me off this wasteland
the clock is ticking in my head
i beg this shape, give me a break
but i can’t find the path
that’s leading out of my mind
i’ve nowhere to go
but i can fight somehow
free me from my sins
i’m trapped into my dream
with nowhere to go
but i can fight somehow
teach me how
tell me how
i’ll break those walls that stick my mind
hold me now
leave me now
