I saw INXS two times. The last was in the pouring rain downtown Cleveland, the kind of rain we call gully washers. There were maybe 100 brave souls who braved the elements. INXS was freaking awesome. Michael Hutchence walked through the sparse crowd while taking his clothes off. He was barefoot, no shirt and singing his heart out. We begged and pleaded for them to play Suicide Blonde. They ended the show with that song. It’s one of my most precious concert memories. How lucky we were to see INXS.

@alexandriaocasio-smollett50784 ай бұрын
Spot on. His name hardly ever comes up when people talk about brilliant artists who died way too young. He was a legitimately elite rock tenor. Which is so rare. His voice was so uniquely textured. It brought a completely different vibe when compared to any of his contemporary rock vocalists. I read an interview of Bono a few years ago. He and Michael were really good friends(U2 posthumously wrote Stuck in a Moment about him). He said U2 and INXS were beginning a collaboration when he died. Would love to have seen where that went.

True story...about 20 years ago, my band Flow was playing at a club in Phuket, Thailand. We used to do a bluesy, 60's Soul version of "Never Tear Us Apart"...guitar heavy, no keys or sax, lots of harmonies. So we're playing the intro to the song...instead of keys it's guitar arpeggios with Oooooh. Oooooh harmonies...unrecognizable. As soon as I launch into the lyrics, this big guy sitting at a table in the back stands up like he finally recognizes the song....stands there, grooving at his table, dancing in place all through the tune until the end and then gives us a big ovation and sits down. A little bit later the waitress brings us a round of drinks from this guy. We thanked him and kept on playing. We used to do a four hour show with no breaks, so at some point I guess he left....I didn't notice. After our set the club manager asked us if we knew who that guy was? No. Who?....the drummer from INXS.

You keep opening that rabbit hole of Australian Rock Music with another Aussie banger.. the 80's Pub rock scene was huge. INXS grew out of that late 70's and early 80's grind of touring random pubs up and down the east coast of the country. Devil inside, Suicide Blonde and Need you tonight. Massive.
