The audience looked like stunned mullets or like they've been cryogenically frozen. Was the tube an English show? I heard the English were a tough audience for Aussie bands, or maybe it was just the English press that didn't like 'em in those days. Sorry if I've offended any English fans. I reckon a lot of INXS' best music was the earlier stuff that most outside Australia probably never really heard. They were awesome right throughout the 80's, and still good in the 90's.
One of my favorite INXS tunes and one of my fave 80s bands! Saw them live back then & loved the show. Their early stuff was just incredible. Shabooh Shabah is still one of my favorite albums and still totally crankable! Hmmm...gonna go look for it!
This song has special meaning for me. My ex was freaking out & trashing our apt cause she was upset for some perceived grievance or some stupid reason. So I bailed in hit the road in a my car in a wicked snow storm. And on the radio was this song. This was my cosmic cue to stay bailed. 'course it didn't happen in the short run but I've been clear and free for years. She's still burning off husbands the last I heard. Thanks INXS- Muskokas beware!
I just looked up John Butler Trio's "Better Than" and "Good Excuse" and they're both very good songs. Thank you for turning me on to someone I didn't know about!!!
Glad you liked them,I think all their songs are great! Am into Aussie music right now, very refreshing! You should check out the Cat Empire too, I love their songs "fishes" and "hello".
I love this band, and unfortunately, they were underappreciated even though they sold gajillions of records. Not many bands can not only sound as good or better than their albums live, but look fantastic doing it. Michael's only competition as far as best front man/lead singer ever was Jagger, Morrison, Bono, and I can't think of anyone else. That's way up in the stratosphere of singers, and on top of that he co-wrote almost all their songs. I really feel sorry for J.D. Fontana.
I never really got into Queen. I know they were good, he was a helluva front man, but his whole leather gay persona kind of turned me off. Plus, I have always hated, hated "Bohemian Rhapsody." What an overblown bunch of shit.
I'll comment myself. Punk was needed so badly when the Pistols and the Clash came out. Rock was so stale, and yeah, overblown, and Queen was just one band of many.
I agree to some extent, but dissing Bohemian Rapsody, that's going to far! Oh well, let's agree to disagree. Do you like John Butler Band, if not you should check them out, that's what I call quality1
THE TUBE.. great show of its time.. all the bands that went on to glory seemed to appear on this show. INXS stood out by a mile for me and the rest is history, just regret not making the trip north to get to the studios to see INXS perform.
When INXS performed on this on the Tube in 1986, they were that good that the audience thought that the band was miming and playing along to the studio track and not playing live....fantastic band and even better live, it's such a shame.
Gorgeous and sexy man, I´ll miss you forever!!! I´ve been your fan since I was 18 (I am 37 now)I understand the other members of the fan "had" to "replace" you, but the truth is YOU CAN´T BE REPLACED, beautiful Michael, and poor DJ Fortune he tries to do his best but there´s no one like you and your beautiful voice, you are very very missed great Michael.
My all time fav song..... Love it

As charismatic as Jim Morrison, no doubt. The first time I saw the Band and Michael, this was my thought.
