I am pretty sure it was played as his casket was being carried from the church after the service. One of the most sad and heartbreaking things I have seen.
I still remember when i saw it in the news. I was very young and didnt understand why a rockstar would kill himself... our minds are the only things that allows to keep walking.
The sax player is Kirk Pengilly. He is also the second guitarist and major contributor to the backing vocals. No one in that band was a slacker, everyone multitasked. Also, I can pretty much guarantee you that you will NOT find a song you don't like. They didn't make any bad music, zero. You have been initiated. It's time for some live INXS. I would start with What You Need, live at Wembley in 91.
That was an extremely moving moment, Michael Hutchence was immense, such a wonderful front man, singer and writer, gone way to soon, he was simply superb.👍🇬🇧👍
Please, keep going down this rabbit hole! "Need You Tonight" is perhaps their best known song, and you'll love it. "Suicide Blonde" is also killer, as is their first ever single in the US, "The One Thing". Michael Hutchence is the GOAT!
I’ll never forget when I saw this song performed live. The whole audience was waiting for that sax solo. As it approached Kirk Pengilly, dressed in a white suit, ran across the stage and up a ramp and just as he reached the top the spotlight hit him as he arched his back and lifted the saxophone and played that spirit soaring extraordinary first note. That concert was about 30 years ago and it is a moment I have never forgotten 😎
I was so heartbroken when Michael Hutchence passed. He had many a teenage girls hearts with his whole vibe. That voice was so smooth and the band was just so much fun. I saw them during the Kick Tour and they were incredible.
I went down a rabbit hole of hutchence & INXS one day; watched the last interview he did on the Rosie O'Donnell show & there was seemingly so much pain in his eyes & voice
Maybe the most underrated band of all time... and cut down in their prime. I often get sad over all the brilliant music we will never hear from this incredible group of Australian musicians. RIP, MH.
@@rayjay5836 They certainly WERE underrated in my native UK. Apart from 'Need You Tonight' (which got to No2 on rerelease), none of their great singles ever got anywhere near the Top Ten. To my mind, that is criminal. In my own humble opinion, they SHOULD have been far more successful than they actually were.
Just note, if you do "Need You Tonight" by INXS, find the version that's combined with "Mediate" after it, or queue up Mediate to play immediately afterwards.
Keep the INX coming. Very under rated band. One of my favorite less known songs by them is "The Stairs." It's basically about two people that their entire relationship happens on the staircase of their building. But it can be taken in other ways as well.
@@eviekelpie1 Maybe they weren't underrated in Australia but here in the states they only briefly achieved the level of fame that they deserved. They had one HUGE album here in the states, Kick, and a few random songs that were hits everyone would have heard. Not just INXS fans. During the "Kick" fame period, they could sell out Madison Square Garden. Any other time they played places like Radio City Music Hall which is like half the size of the Garden or less. See, underrated means not that they weren't popular or good. It means that they were better than they got credit for. So it is not a put down at all what I said but a compliment.
idk why many people always talking about inxs or michael like if they was an unknown band hahaha i don't lived the eighties i was born in 1988, but i always heard about inxs since was a kid, like i heard about many great bands, but obviously, not like the beatles, stones or pink floyd, etc...Michael is a legend and for me: Never Tear Us Apart is one of the five most beautiful songs of all time. And i really like Don't Change and Beautiful Girl too.
Typing through the tears 😢😥😢 This was our song. I lost my beautiful husband of 25 yrs just 10 months ago in a horrid car accident 💔💔💔 I MISS HIM TERRIBLY 🙏 #TwoWorldsCollided
Cindy - Im so sorry for your loss...that is truely terrible. We were def spoiled in our Australian music in the 1980's. INXS was the first album my husband bought me, and we've been married for 31. Im so sorry for your loss...really, I cant imagine my life without mine, and the history we created together.
Yes more INXS! Check out some of their early stuff too like "The One Thing", "Original Sin", "Don't Change" (a personal fave) and so many others later..."By My Side", "Suicide Blonde" (killer harmonica guitar and drums and a little bit of sax 🎷), "Kick" (surprise in there 😛), "Beautiful Girl (piano + great msg), "What You Need", Kiss The Dirt", "Devil Inside", "Need You Tonight / "Mediate" (combo video is awesome), "Disappear", "The Stairs".
I was one of them. A fifteen-year-old girl who absolutely adored him back in the late 80s, OMG! I had the magazines and the posters, it was crazy!!!!!!!!!!
An absolutely brilliant, anthemic ballad. The “Kick” album was an earth shaking force in 1987. I still shake a little every time I hear that saxophone.
One of their most underrated songs that happens to be a top favorite of mine, as their first international hit, and it's called "Don't Change". It's off their 3rd album. Definitely give it a listen.
I've been AWOL for a while. Had major surgery and spent about 3 weeks recuperating. Finally back home to my computer and the first song I hear is INXS!! Doesn't get any better. It will take me a while to catch up on all I've missed, but I will get it done. Thanks, guys!
Hi guys, I went to high school with Michael Hutchins and the Farris brothers from INXS (Before their fame) in the 80s in the Northern suburbs of Sydney Australia. It was cool seeing them jamming in the school hall, when they were just a group of school “Musos” they were cools dudes at school as well! 😅
"Two worlds collided..." This song came out when I was in college and those three words always remind me of a relationship that I had back then. Every time I hear this song, it is instantly 1988 again. I love the Old World, European vibe of this video. Filmed in Prague, back when the country of Czechoslovakia still existed.
One of the best things about INXS is that what you heard on the radio, tv, or cassette is what you heard live. No one sounded like a winded Darth Vader. I saw them live three times, starting in 1984 when they opened for the GoGos, who are okay. I was there for INXS, and they did not disappoint. I guess I'm the odd man out, because my favorite INXS albums are The Swing and Listen Like Thieves. I love them equally, so don't ask me to choose.
This band was very under rated. Their lyrics make the hairs on your neck stand. This particular song touches really deep. People love each other, break up, marry others, but that immense love they felt for each other never dies.
Few losses have ever hit me so hard as Michael's death. Kick was the first album I ever bought with my own money and it remains one of the most perfect albums ever. INXS were just such a gorgeous flash of perfection.
Andrew Farriss said that of all the 1000's of gigs the boys performed the 2 most incredible gigs for energy were Wembley in front of 75000 in July 1991, the other.................................................October 1988 in their hometown of Sydney at the Sydney Entcent in front of 14000, first gig at home after the massive 'KICK' tour of the USA --- I was at the latter....the energy was so massive my mate's girlfriend cried all night......MH was wearing black PVC pants, stalking the stage like ablack panther.............DAMNED EPIC
I was a kid when this came out and I never even gave it a second glance but seeing this reaction as an adult with a different outlook and taste in music made me add this to my “favorites only” playlist 💚💚💚
Kirk Pengily is the sax and rhythm guitar player, Michael Hutchence sings, Andrew Farris keyboards, Tim Farris lead guitar, Jon Farris drums, Gary Beers bass Next great INXS sax solo is in "The One Thing"
I love and miss Michael’s music so much 😣 Never Tear Us Apart has so much emotion and rawness to it!! He will be missed dearly by the INXS fans all over the world!! 🫶🏼💔
Yes! Such a good song, been waiting for this one. INXS has so many good songs and I know you have done a few of them already. Beautiful Girl is also a very good one
The one thing about INXS is that they never disappoint. Just when you think you know them, they come out with this song. I was waiting for reaction when the sax came in. Love you two, you also never disappoint.
INXS did an amazing cover of an Easybeats song Good Times. Easybeats were the band of George Young, brother of Angus and Malcolm Young. George produced the first 6 AC/DC albums.
My favorite INXS song. A couple of suggestions for Female Friday. Jewel "You were meant for me", "Foolish games" or "Hands" were some good ones. And Amy Grant "Baby Baby" and "I will remember you" which is my favorite.
Great song. From the mid-80's to early 90's...so many classic hits...yes, they had more hits in their native Australia, but in the states, they were HUGE for a good 7-8 years. Hard not to put several of their songs on my favorite lists the years they were on the charts.
Instant flashback to the late 80's college scene. This song was everywhere, all the clubs playing it, radio stations, MTV... INXS was on top of the world at the time..there is so much more of their catalog to dig into..
I was staying in Hong Kong's Mid-Levels neighborhood near Michael Hutchence's house just recently. My UA-cam feed was being flooded with INXS vids, particularly Never Tear Us Apart. It made me start listening to them again fondly remembering how beautiful this song is.
Great react. INXS was a great band RIP Michael. Gone too soon If you like sax you have to listen more Supertramp. My Kind of Lady has an amazing sax solo
# 1 wedding song for years! INXS is also such a unique sound, musically they really pack a punch. Those guitar riffs and the orchestrations. Amber - drama, you're talking about the drama in the song! Andrew came up with the musical ideas and then Michael would fit the lyrics into it. I miss these guys so much. 😪
Your right, I played a lot of weddings in the early 90’s and this was the most popular song for the bridal waltz followed by “Unchained Melody” and “I’ll be watching you”.
As soon as I saw the song, I knew Amber would be smilin'. I bought my daughter an INXS cassette when she was in high school. I was all excited to give it to her because it had this ong on it. I handed her the cassette and said, "Look! It's Inks". If you could hear eyes roll, the world could've heard them. Jordan, you made laugh when you talked about trying to figure out how to pronounce their name. lol My favorite of their music catalog. Thanks for your reaction, guys. Loved it. Take care and be well. Peace.
You need to watch INXS and Jimmy Barnes - Good Times. Jimmy is an Australian icon. If you want hype from violins, watch Bond - Korabushka live in London and the Royal Albert Hall. Again, Best Sax and Guitar is Lily Was Here - Candy Dulfer on sax and Dave Stewart from Eurythmics on guitar
That's music¡¡¡¡¡¡ using real nice instruments. Each instrument shines on its perfect timing in this song, even the chorus and of course Michael's lead vocals. INXS is just pure quality
I was in high school when this one came out, INXS was already huge of course but this song was epic. When that sax hits we’d fall to our knees with our air-sax and be bad a**. RIP Michael Hutchence, what a talent, what a voice and super gorgeous too! Miss him!
I’m getting a real kick out of how much you guys are loving INXS. When Kirk Pengilly started wailing on the sax, I swear Amber Girl, you felt that everywhere! My teen years were in the 80’s and hands down INXS ruled my world. I’ve seen them at least 10 times in concert and their live shows were absolutely incredible. Michael Hutchence was a front man force to be reckoned with, he owned every inch of that stage. There will never be another voice like his, or a band like theirs. Now, treat yourself to Devil Inside 😈😈😈
Glad to hear you give props to the Legendary “Big Man” Clarence Clemons! Y’all need to get back to some Springsteen soon. Check out Jungleland! Clarence’s sax 🎷 solo on that track, particularly a live version, is AMAZING. You’ll be SHOOK!
Jungleland has the BEST sax solo ever. I've been listening to it for decades now and it never fails to give me goosebumps and make me cry. Jake is lovely and all, but the Big Man was the best. Even in collabs with others you can always hear when it's him/his sax.
You need to check out The Lost Boys soundtrack. The original movie soundtrack had great music on it. The one to listen to hear a saxaphone is "I Still Believe".
The bass guitar tends to be what connects all of the other instruments together. Garry Gary Beers was the Bassist for INXS and he is criminally underrated IMO.
You two are the cutest -- and I LOVE your reactions, especially to this band, which has been my favorite since discovering them back in 1983! The sax player is Kirk Pengilly. He's a very talented, multi-instrumentalist. Honestly, all the boys are. Andrew Farriss (main composer, keyboardist & backing vocals) & Michael Hutchence (lyricist, vocals) wrote most of their songs. They were an amazing song writing team. In addition, Tim Farriss (lead guitarist), Jon Farriss (drums) and Garry Gary Beers (bass) have all earned industry respect for being legends, too. Once you've had your first reactions to their main songs, I'd love to see your first reaction to the video of their Wembley 1991 concert. Thank you for your shows! 🤩
I'm currently watching the Beatles "Get Back" series ,it's fascinating to see their creative process , Michael Hutchence and Andrew Farriss operated in a similar way . Michael was a talented poet , he was always writing and refining lyrics and stories , then Andrew and the others would write the music to suit. When you see this kind of synergy happening , that's when magic happens and the world ends up with some incredible , timeless music and lyrics. Best ever Aussie band IMHO.
I still can't believe you guys haven't reacted to the music video "Need You Tonight" by INXS. It was the Number 1 hit on the Billboard Chart in 1988, and won five MTV Video Music Awards including 1988 Video of The Year. It was ranked Number 21 on MTV's countdown of the 100 greatest videos of all time. The song is also referred to as INXS' defining song. Be careful Jay... Amber might catch a "ManCrush" on Michael Hutchins, the singer. (Sidenote: I actually went to the INXS concert at Texas Stadium in 1989. Guns and Roses opened for them. Killer concert!!!!! Keep up the great work guys! TMC
@Grant Roberts Thank yew four korrekting m-eye spelling Grunt Roburts. It's fukkin dik heds like yoo that hellp thee rest of us under stand a pursuns last name. Once again, Grunt "Captain Asslick" Roburts saves the day!
Billy Joel's song I"m in a New York state of mind has epic piano and sax. Please give it a listen. Also for female Fridays Linda Ronstadt's Long, long time is a must listen. Thanks for great reactions, smiles (given and received) and may God bless you and your beautiful family.
Amber if you want sax another great Aussie band is Icehouse. Their song Don't Believe Anymore is definitely worth a listen. Love the channel. Greetings from Australia 😍
Yesssssss finally lol!! Gorgeous song. Gorgeous man 😝 Oh they were soooo good!!! 👌🏼👌🏼This was fun to watch you react to. Soooooo great! Sidenote: shot in Prague. Been there. Would go again. 👍🏼
"Full Moon, Dirty Hearts". INXS' best disk ever. What they achieved there stands out within their amazing discography. Michael's death is one of those which devastated me. His single album, recorded before he died, his a masterpiece as well, that solidified Michael Hutchence's legacy. His voice is one of those I consider as one of the most underrated voices ever. I remember when I bought the VHS of their Live concert at Wembley I was used to play the video with the windows wide open and I was used to sing the whole concert with them. I wanted everybody to hear that music. My younger brother was so embarrassed, because our neighbour told him what I was used to do and... well... I guess they didn't appreciate much. When I saw Michael's look in that concert I started to mimic his style. I wish I has those tight white jeans with black stripes and stars! I was used to wear shirts the same way. I had already very long and curly hair at that time, which made me look a mix of Robert Plant but in black. I was very dark skinned when I was that young, I remember one time when a kid told the other kids, while I was passing among them "hey look... he's Michael Jackson!". Those in early-mid 90s were incredible years packed with good memories and INXS was constantly the soundtrack of my lifetime back then, before Alice In Chains took me by storm. I'm very happy guys like you, definitely younger than me, do love INXS... the coolest band in the 90s! I wish Michael could feel how he and INXS were loved back then... probably he wouldn't have taken his life and he would be already here among us, making us gift of more and more music in the unmatched INXS style!
I enjoy so many songs from many eras. Classical, Baroque, folk, swing, big band, jazz, rock, motown, country, grunge, pop, on and on. But this song just moves me in such a unique way. It's nearly impossible for me to choose a "favorite song" but this one is probably as close to that as is possible.
This was played at Michaels funeral in 1997. Heartbreaking.
I remember. So sad.
I am pretty sure it was played as his casket was being carried from the church after the service. One of the most sad and heartbreaking things I have seen.
I still remember when i saw it in the news. I was very young and didnt understand why a rockstar would kill himself... our minds are the only things that allows to keep walking.
I think BY MY SIDE was played as they were bringing him out 😢😢😢😢
The song will make a grown man cry
This is hands down one of the most beautiful songs of the 80s.
Sax is Kirk Pengelly & is married ton7 time wolf champion women surfer Layne Beachly. RIP Hutch.
One of the most beautiful period!
Definitely!!
It was my wedding song. Been married for 32 years
I agree
The sax player is Kirk Pengilly. He is also the second guitarist and major contributor to the backing vocals. No one in that band was a slacker, everyone multitasked. Also, I can pretty much guarantee you that you will NOT find a song you don't like. They didn't make any bad music, zero. You have been initiated. It's time for some live INXS. I would start with What You Need, live at Wembley in 91.
and his wife is Layne Beachley - A 7 time World Champion in surfing
thank you watching now
@@jgsheehan8810 Great name for a surfer
Holy crap yes! People need to react to videos from that concert, with 70,000+ in attendance and the whole place just pulsing!
Amber would be blown away by What You Need
This song was played at Michaels funeral as they carried his coffin from the church. Beautiful song!
😭😭😭😭😭
Say sike😭😭
Wow amazing
The saddest thing 💔
That was an extremely moving moment, Michael Hutchence was immense, such a wonderful front man, singer and writer, gone way to soon, he was simply superb.👍🇬🇧👍
"We all have wings but some of us don't know why" - the emotion in Michael's voice on that line blows me away every time.
Those lyrics are my favourite part of the song!
Especially the last time he says it
Equally I think the verse ,and if I hurt you I'd make wine from your tears
❤#MichaelHutchence #INXS❣️
Please, keep going down this rabbit hole! "Need You Tonight" is perhaps their best known song, and you'll love it. "Suicide Blonde" is also killer, as is their first ever single in the US, "The One Thing". Michael Hutchence is the GOAT!
Excellent suggestion! "Suicide Blonde" and "Disappear" as well!
Need you Tonight with Mediate. I think they will like the near rap portion.
@@5ohnnyfive Also just remembered "Original Sin" and "Listen Like Thieves".
Then dive into Michael Hutchence's side project Max Q . . . Way Of The World. . . Sometimes . . . Everything
Don't Change

Me too!

I was one of those teen fans. He's still my all time favorite celebrity crush.

Dunno about underrated. These guys were selling bigger gigs than U2 back in the day.
Wasnt underated at all I lived it every tune a banger.

I believe the lyrics and those guitars do it.
Same here. Great profile name btw!
@@tipigi3570 Thanks!
Just note, if you do "Need You Tonight" by INXS, find the version that's combined with "Mediate" after it, or queue up Mediate to play immediately afterwards.
Yes!
Yes! I loved it when the radio station rolled Need You Tonight into Meditate
The songs definitely should be played together
That's the way it should be
AND make sure to do the original videos not the ones with just lyrics.
Oh yes
Keep the INX coming. Very under rated band. One of my favorite less known songs by them is "The Stairs." It's basically about two people that their entire relationship happens on the staircase of their building. But it can be taken in other ways as well.
S
I love The Stairs! I think it is about people living their lives around people intermingling and never getting around to really know each other .
Great song

They should listen to Jenny Morris "Gonna Get Hurt". Some of the INXS crew helped her on that track. 😁

Check out some of their early stuff too like "The One Thing", "Original Sin", "Don't Change" (a personal fave) and so many others later..."By My Side", "Suicide Blonde" (killer harmonica guitar and drums and a little bit of sax 🎷), "Kick" (surprise in there 😛), "Beautiful Girl (piano + great msg), "What You Need", Kiss The Dirt", "Devil Inside", "Need You Tonight / "Mediate" (combo video is awesome), "Disappear", "The Stairs".
Don't change has never grown old. Ironically.
original sin is a good one i forgot about that one 👍👍
I love the first 3 songs you mentioned. They are all on my Playlist! Great suggestions.
Also my personal favorite "Don't Change" is legendary!
Apparently Limpbizkit did a cover of Don't Change and a lot of their fans were checking out the original by INXS.
In the 80's this song and it's Lead Singer drove women CRAZY 🤪.
There are still so many INXS Fan-girls out there. R.I.P. Michael.

An absolutely brilliant, anthemic ballad. The “Kick” album was an earth shaking force in 1987. I still shake a little every time I hear that saxophone.
Kick is one of the few alboums with 100% killer songs on it.
Did you see Beck did a project and he remade it in a day with a bunch of musicians?
Well said.
One of their most underrated songs that happens to be a top favorite of mine, as their first international hit, and it's called "Don't Change". It's off their 3rd album. Definitely give it a listen.
Totally agree. It's my favourite.
Yes....a lot of their earlier stuff is amazing. original sin, dancing on the jetty
2 of the best songs from the album, Shaboo Shabaa, Don't change and The one thing
If I hurt you. I’ll make wine from your tears. Those lyrics are genius
They played this beautiful song at Michael's funeral. So sad, so beautiful, so perfect.
This is one of the best songs. 💕 I love INXS. Kirk Pengilly is the talented sax player.

Hi guys, I went to high school with Michael Hutchins and the Farris brothers from INXS (Before their fame) in the 80s in the Northern suburbs of Sydney Australia. It was cool seeing them jamming in the school hall, when they were just a group of school “Musos” they were cools dudes at school as well! 😅

I do too still after all these years.
same...it never fails to disappoint...and you just wait for those pauses and then the sax rift....its just soul food in music form!
It’s very rare that a song comes along that is close to perfect. This is one of them
INXS - Original Sin and Dont Change are their best tracks.
INXS "Don't change" to see how they began. One of the first songs to launch them. Really fun to watch!
They look so young in that video
My favorite!
This is my absolute favorite song by INXS! It’s dark and it shows how haunting Michael Hutchence voice can be. RIP
Andrew Farriss said that of all the 1000's of gigs the boys performed the 2 most incredible gigs for energy were Wembley in front of 75000 in July 1991, the other.................................................October 1988 in their hometown of Sydney at the Sydney Entcent in front of 14000, first gig at home after the massive 'KICK' tour of the USA --- I was at the latter....the energy was so massive my mate's girlfriend cried all night......MH was wearing black PVC pants, stalking the stage like ablack panther.............DAMNED EPIC
What a great band. I feel privileged to have seen them live many years ago.
Same :)
I'm always in the mood for some good sax! 😉 Seriously tho, Michael could sing a phonebook & make me swoon.😍
I was a kid when this came out and I never even gave it a second glance but seeing this reaction as an adult with a different outlook and taste in music made me add this to my “favorites only” playlist 💚💚💚
One of their best songs ever. Showcases Michael's voice and the bands talent.
You two kids are just a joy to watch! Thank you so much for enjoying Aussie music.
Kirk Pengily is the sax and rhythm guitar player, Michael Hutchence sings, Andrew Farris keyboards, Tim Farris lead guitar, Jon Farris drums, Gary Beers bass
Next great INXS sax solo is in "The One Thing"
Yes!!
Still got a ways to go down the INXS rabbit hole. For your next song by them try Need You Tonight or Suicide Blonde.
I've been waiting for this one!!! This song is right up there with "Need You Tonight" on the awesome scale. 1988 was the year for this top 10 hit. 😎👌
I love and miss Michael’s music so much 😣 Never Tear Us Apart has so much emotion and rawness to it!! He will be missed dearly by the INXS fans all over the world!! 🫶🏼💔
Numerous times watching this..... Still love the reaction when the sax kicks in!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes! Such a good song, been waiting for this one. INXS has so many good songs and I know you have done a few of them already. Beautiful Girl is also a very good one
The one thing about INXS is that they never disappoint. Just when you think you know them, they come out with this song. I was waiting for reaction when the sax came in. Love you two, you also never disappoint.
INXS did an amazing cover of an Easybeats song Good Times. Easybeats were the band of George Young, brother of Angus and Malcolm Young. George produced the first 6 AC/DC albums.
I know this song so well and I was just waiting on Amber's reaction. She never disappoints.
Dang! Amber went full armpit when that sax came in!
The next INXS song you need to react to is Need You Tonight/Mediate!!!
It has to be both!! Please don't leave off Mediate...for the love of..😓
My favorite INXS song. A couple of suggestions for Female Friday. Jewel "You were meant for me", "Foolish games" or "Hands" were some good ones. And Amy Grant "Baby Baby" and "I will remember you" which is my favorite.
INXS has always been my favorite band. 💜💙💜💙💜💙💜 So sad when he passed and we lost such a soulful voice. 😪
One of the greatest tracks ever made. RIP Michael, you are missed .
Great song. From the mid-80's to early 90's...so many classic hits...yes, they had more hits in their native Australia, but in the states, they were HUGE for a good 7-8 years. Hard not to put several of their songs on my favorite lists the years they were on the charts.
❤❤❤ this song so much!!! Thank You!!! I knew Amber would ❤the saxophone!!! She 'took flight' at that moment
takes me back to the 80s, one of our best Aussie bands
Instant flashback to the late 80's college scene. This song was everywhere, all the clubs playing it, radio stations, MTV... INXS was on top of the world at the time..there is so much more of their catalog to dig into..
Same...that and blue light discos on saturday nights
EARGASM is the perfect definition for this song!
I was staying in Hong Kong's Mid-Levels neighborhood near Michael Hutchence's house just recently. My UA-cam feed was being flooded with INXS vids, particularly Never Tear Us Apart. It made me start listening to them again fondly remembering how beautiful this song is.
Great react. INXS was a great band
RIP Michael. Gone too soon
If you like sax you have to listen more Supertramp. My Kind of Lady has an amazing sax solo
John Farnham with the Melbourne symphony orchestra doing Help is an awesome song and has a sax solo 😉😊👍🏻
Yes! I've suggested this before as well.
Me too definitely worth a listen.
One of their songs that is very underrated is their song "Good Times" on the Lost Boys soundtrack. It's one of my fave INXS songs.
Agree 100%…. Great hype tune…
Agree
It’s a great cover. Equally as good as the original. The official clip with Jimmy Barnes is a lot of fun and there’s a great live version too.
That song kicks off an amazing movie soundtrack, one of my favorites.
I agree!
This song immediately transports me back to every school dance.
# 1 wedding song for years! INXS is also such a unique sound, musically they really pack a punch. Those guitar riffs and the orchestrations. Amber - drama, you're talking about the drama in the song! Andrew came up with the musical ideas and then Michael would fit the lyrics into it. I miss these guys so much. 😪
Your right, I played a lot of weddings in the early 90’s and this was the most popular song for the bridal waltz followed by “Unchained Melody” and “I’ll be watching you”.
"..... Cause We ALL have Wings . . . but some of us don't know WHYYYYYYY . . . ", F`ing Bloody Brilliant
As soon as I saw the song, I knew Amber would be smilin'. I bought my daughter an INXS cassette when she was in high school. I was all excited to give it to her because it had this ong on it. I handed her the cassette and said, "Look! It's Inks". If you could hear eyes roll, the world could've heard them. Jordan, you made laugh when you talked about trying to figure out how to pronounce their name. lol My favorite of their music catalog. Thanks for your reaction, guys. Loved it. Take care and be well. Peace.
You need to watch INXS and Jimmy Barnes - Good Times. Jimmy is an Australian icon. If you want hype from violins, watch Bond - Korabushka live in London and the Royal Albert Hall. Again, Best Sax and Guitar is Lily Was Here - Candy Dulfer on sax and Dave Stewart from Eurythmics on guitar
Definite yes to Lily Was Here.
That's music¡¡¡¡¡¡ using real nice instruments. Each instrument shines on its perfect timing in this song, even the chorus and of course Michael's lead vocals. INXS is just pure quality
I was in high school when this one came out, INXS was already huge of course but this song was epic. When that sax hits we’d fall to our knees with our air-sax and be bad a**. RIP Michael Hutchence, what a talent, what a voice and super gorgeous too! Miss him!
Might’ve been played already, not sure, but suicide blonde is another great song by INXS.
I'm so glad you did INXS again. I don't think they get talked about enough 🙂
Right when you mentioned the violins owning it and I'm sitting here, "Oh just wait for that drop!" and then THAT SAX!
I’m getting a real kick out of how much you guys are loving INXS. When Kirk Pengilly started wailing on the sax, I swear Amber Girl, you felt that everywhere! My teen years were in the 80’s and hands down INXS ruled my world. I’ve seen them at least 10 times in concert and their live shows were absolutely incredible. Michael Hutchence was a front man force to be reckoned with, he owned every inch of that stage. There will never be another voice like his, or a band like theirs. Now, treat yourself to Devil Inside 😈😈😈
I miss the 80s so much...The music was so varietal like different types of wine. INXS was so underrated.
Glad to hear you give props to the Legendary “Big Man” Clarence Clemons! Y’all need to get back to some Springsteen soon. Check out Jungleland! Clarence’s sax 🎷 solo on that track, particularly a live version, is AMAZING. You’ll be SHOOK!
Voted best sax solo ever.
I agree, brilliant!
You just have to check it out. Great story, brilliant lyrics and the best sax solo ever!!
Jungleland has the BEST sax solo ever. I've been listening to it for decades now and it never fails to give me goosebumps and make me cry. Jake is lovely and all, but the Big Man was the best. Even in collabs with others you can always hear when it's him/his sax.
You need to check out The Lost Boys soundtrack. The original movie soundtrack had great music on it. The one to listen to hear a saxaphone is "I Still Believe".
Tim Capello! Played sax for Tina Turner
Jimmy Barnes and INXS sang Good Times for that movie
The bass guitar tends to be what connects all of the other instruments together. Garry Gary Beers was the Bassist for INXS and he is criminally underrated IMO.
The best songs are the ones that they performed Live At Wembley Stadium. New Sensation brings a whole new meaning when you see the live performance!
You two are the cutest -- and I LOVE your reactions, especially to this band, which has been my favorite since discovering them back in 1983! The sax player is Kirk Pengilly. He's a very talented, multi-instrumentalist. Honestly, all the boys are. Andrew Farriss (main composer, keyboardist & backing vocals) & Michael Hutchence (lyricist, vocals) wrote most of their songs. They were an amazing song writing team. In addition, Tim Farriss (lead guitarist), Jon Farriss (drums) and Garry Gary Beers (bass) have all earned industry respect for being legends, too. Once you've had your first reactions to their main songs, I'd love to see your first reaction to the video of their Wembley 1991 concert. Thank you for your shows! 🤩
Great, world-class, Aussie band… 👍🇦🇺
Don't Change was always their encore. It was their first big hit, and it absolutely terrific! You won't believe how young they look.
Would love for yall to react to Need you Tonight. That is my favorite INXS song.
I'm currently watching the Beatles "Get Back" series ,it's fascinating to see their creative process , Michael Hutchence and Andrew Farriss operated in a similar way . Michael was a talented poet , he was always writing and refining lyrics and stories , then Andrew and the others would write the music to suit. When you see this kind of synergy happening , that's when magic happens and the world ends up with some incredible , timeless music and lyrics. Best ever Aussie band IMHO.
I still can't believe you guys haven't reacted to the music video "Need You Tonight" by INXS. It was the Number 1 hit on the Billboard Chart in 1988, and won five MTV Video Music Awards including 1988 Video of The Year. It was ranked Number 21 on MTV's countdown of the 100 greatest videos of all time. The song is also referred to as INXS' defining song. Be careful Jay... Amber might catch a "ManCrush" on Michael Hutchins, the singer. (Sidenote: I actually went to the INXS concert at Texas Stadium in 1989. Guns and Roses opened for them. Killer concert!!!!! Keep up the great work guys!

Michael HutchENCE
@Grant Roberts Thank yew four korrekting m-eye spelling Grunt Roburts.
It's fukkin dik heds like yoo that hellp thee rest of us under stand a pursuns last name.
Once again, Grunt "Captain Asslick" Roburts saves the day!
Billy Joel's song I"m in a New York state of mind has epic piano and sax. Please give it a listen. Also for female Fridays Linda Ronstadt's Long, long time is a must listen. Thanks for great reactions, smiles (given and received) and may God bless you and your beautiful family.
I second New York State of Mind! Every time I hear it, I have to stop, close my eyes, and just feel it…
Amber if you want sax another great Aussie band is Icehouse. Their song Don't Believe Anymore is definitely worth a listen. Love the channel. Greetings from Australia 😍
What many have been waiting for…🤗
and Prague still looks exactly like that.. man, I loved the 80's music. it was really infectious
I'm with Amber. This has always been one of my favourite songs. This sax solo could have gone on forever!
FINALLY! ❤️❤️❤️
Great song. My 2nd fave INXS song. I suggest the following INXS songs: Don't Change & The One Thing
Yesssssss finally lol!! Gorgeous song. Gorgeous man 😝 Oh they were soooo good!!! 👌🏼👌🏼This was fun to watch you react to. Soooooo great! Sidenote: shot in Prague. Been there. Would go again. 👍🏼
"Full Moon, Dirty Hearts". INXS' best disk ever. What they achieved there stands out within their amazing discography. Michael's death is one of those which devastated me. His single album, recorded before he died, his a masterpiece as well, that solidified Michael Hutchence's legacy. His voice is one of those I consider as one of the most underrated voices ever.
I remember when I bought the VHS of their Live concert at Wembley I was used to play the video with the windows wide open and I was used to sing the whole concert with them. I wanted everybody to hear that music. My younger brother was so embarrassed, because our neighbour told him what I was used to do and... well... I guess they didn't appreciate much. When I saw Michael's look in that concert I started to mimic his style. I wish I has those tight white jeans with black stripes and stars! I was used to wear shirts the same way. I had already very long and curly hair at that time, which made me look a mix of Robert Plant but in black. I was very dark skinned when I was that young, I remember one time when a kid told the other kids, while I was passing among them "hey look... he's Michael Jackson!". Those in early-mid 90s were incredible years packed with good memories and INXS was constantly the soundtrack of my lifetime back then, before Alice In Chains took me by storm.
I'm very happy guys like you, definitely younger than me, do love INXS... the coolest band in the 90s! I wish Michael could feel how he and INXS were loved back then... probably he wouldn't have taken his life and he would be already here among us, making us gift of more and more music in the unmatched INXS style!
I enjoy so many songs from many eras. Classical, Baroque, folk, swing, big band, jazz, rock, motown, country, grunge, pop, on and on. But this song just moves me in such a unique way. It's nearly impossible for me to choose a "favorite song" but this one is probably as close to that as is possible.
