One thing that stood out for me when Jon fronted them was the respect he paid Hutch, you can see it clearly here, JD didn't show the same respect, he hated comparisons and the Hutch tribute was gone, paying tribute to Michael on stage doesn't mean they're not moving on, it's just the right thing to do, maybe they see that now with the new Hutchence tribute album, I hope when they get a new singer they at least mention him, I saw them twice with JD and not a word, Hutch deserves alot more

If Jon stayed with the band i reckon they could have been still the all star band that they where with michael. Not with some guy who pretty much fucked up the band. The new INXS musci is shit too. the direction their going just isnt Classic INXS which sucks!

@thestew75 I agree, Jon is the only one I have heard sing their songs that even comes close to Michael. I don't like them having JD as a front man

[Mrsjack43]

Jon Stevens is very good but to be honest this particular song don't fit any body but Michael

[TaiPaul1]

Jon Respected INXS. JD Fortune is a Fuckbag and sounded shit. No Heart...

What a shame Jon didn't stay with INXS he is AWESOME!

@Teagirl009 they did one song together called I Get Up

I would like to say that this is the guy that should have replaced Michael but that would be unjust as Michael is irreplaceable. But this is the guy that should have taken over from Michael. JD Fortune is a good singer but his voice to similar to Michael, in fact he comes across as a Hutchence imitator. Jon is his own man and sings the songs in his own way. Had Jon stayed he would have kick-started INXS into a new era perhaps similar to Brian Johnson taking over from Bon Scott in AC/DC.

Jon was their best chance at creating music again. They blew it because they only wanted to play old songs. Jon respected Michael and the old songs and but he also wanted them to create new material. Jon can't replace michael but then he never tried to, and he doesnt have to he is respected singer/song writer in his own right. They could have pooled noiseworks and INXS fan bases and created some good stuff IMO as well as pay homage to old songs. God Bless Michael.
