Split Enzis one of the most successful and longest running bands ever to emerge from New Zealand. The group was formed in Auckland in 1971 by Tim Finn, Philip Judd, , Robert Gillies, and Noel Crombie, who originally called themselves "Split Ends." They soon changed the spelling to honor their NZ homeland. For much of their career, the band was known for wild costumes and make-up designed by Crombie. For the first phase of their existence, the band played a kind of progressive rock infused with music-hall humor; later they slipped into a quirky new wavestyle that generated hits worldwide. Numerous personnel changes have been a defining factor for the Enz.

So Long For Now Lyrics
Split Enz
So a long for now
It was such a pleasant little stay
Goodbye for now
I'll be back later in the day
And I'll be singing
All we got to do (all we got to do)
Is sit here (is sit here)
There's nothing we can do (we can do)
Ho! Bright young men surround me
Looking for the future
I'm standing on the deepend
In this land of godsend
You're the reason for everything I say
You're the reason for every single day
I-I wish I had more to say
I'm sorry I always drift away
I-I wish I had more to do
I'm sorry but I love you
You could at least give me a smile
But never mind
You're so unkind
Nice young girls surround me
Looking for the right man
The bright times have left me
Since I took to my heels and ran
You're the reason for everything I say
You're the reason for every single day
You're the reason for everything I say
You're the reason for every single day
