My Mistake

"My Mistake" is a 1977 song by New Zealand art rock group Split Enz from their studio album Dizrythmia. "My Mistake" was the first Split Enz song to achieve a top 20 chart position, peaking at #15 in Australia and #21 in the band's native New Zealand.^[1]

Music video

The music video for "My Mistake" has a cabaret style. It begins with most of the group in front of a stage playing the music in a dimly lit amphitheatre. Tim Finn walks onto stage and begins to sing. The stage lights up eventually and all the band members can be seen. Throughout the video, Tim Finn performs 'magic tricks' assisted by editing (such as disappearing and appearing items). As is heard on the album version of the song, Finn then scats along with the trumpet solo performed by band member Robert Gillies. At the end of the video, while playing, Gillies' trumpet disappears, and Eddie Rayner's piano disappears as he's playing it.
