"Strait Old Line" is a 1983 song by New Zealand art rock group Split Enz from their second last studio album Conflicting Emotions. It was written by Neil Finn and released as a single in 1983.[1]

In order to achieve the slow motion effect in the music video, the band members mimed with their instruments while the song was played back at double speed. [2]
