When she was performing in Sydney, Australia, Dua Lipa covered "Never Tear Us Apart" by Aussie rockers INXS, and now she's paid homage to another local artist, this time in New Zealand.

The pop star was playing the second of two shows at Spark Arena in Auckland on Friday when she decided to cover the Crowded House classic "Don't Dream It's Over." This time she got some help for her cover, bringing out Crowded House frontman Neil Finn, who also penned the tune.

You can watch the duet on the Live Nation TikTok account for New Zealand.

"Don't Dream It's Over," off Crowded House's 1986 self-titled debut, reached #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1987, eight years before Dua was born.

Dua has been performing songs by local artists throughout her tour Down Under. In addition to the INXS and Crowded House tunes, she covered AC/DC's "Highway to Hell" in Melbourne, Australia, and Lorde's "Royals" at her first show in Auckland on Wednesday.
