“Seven worlds collide” in the song “Distant Sun” is a reference to the Pleiades star cluster, also known as the Seven Sisters and as Matariki in Aotearoa/New Zealand. The reappearance of Matariki marks midwinter and is a time for remembrance and looking to the future. Mānawatia a Matariki from Team NF. | Neil Finn
