#ElegantlyWasted #INXS
HUGELY underrated song and album. INXS had a unique talent for fusing rock, pop, funk and soul into one outstanding package.
This was a fantastic album.
Better than oasis
If Michale hadn't died I'm sure they would have got their due, for being such a unique band.
Why on Earth Michael Hutchinson isn't mentioned up there with Mick, Bono and Freddie as 'Best Frontmen Ever' is beyond me. He was incredible... and sorely missed...
REMChicagoBoy - because he is WAY WAY above all of those. If they are in the stratosphere, MH is on Jupiter.
Amen,amen,and amen!!!
Ikr he is the best!!!
@@Sidneyyoungblood75 well said friend!
Dave Gahan
Hutch was clearly,easily one of the best front men!
This song could be released today and be a hit.
If it was a kick snare kick snare house remix with a shitty 808 maybe it would. I hate what music has become, i hate house music i hate reggaeton
A lot of their music could tbh
Not that that's saying much, but yeah
With the shit that's around 2day, yeh - of course. With a few people saying, that MH added in the lyrics "I'm better than Oasis" and can clearly hear him saying it.. must been on drugs. But Inxs are and were definitely better than Oasis. And so were U2. That could be said of any of U2's major hits back in 1980s, would be hits now too. Even with Simple Minds.
@nouid9435 one can clearly hear Hutchins singing that lyric, built into the mix. Brilliant move, Imo
When someone asks, "what is the X factor?" Michael Hutchence is my reply he had it in every way. Women wanted him, men wanted him and wanted to be like him. He just had IT xx
I can't disagree, I have been a huge fan for 40 years since the beginning, in the 90s my room was covered with INXS posters, and I was in my 20s!
@@Ottotherepoman1 me too such a shame xx
You are not wrong. 😢 Seen INXS in the mid eighties. Fantastic show. Michael could sing better than the album. Unbelievable talent.
Michael Hutchence definitely had the IT factor!!!!!!!!
For sure... Men wanted to BE him! Funny as it is, an old girlfriend actually found Jon (Farris), the drummer, more attractive.
Whose still listening in 2024?? Have always been a Fan of theirs since the 80’s. 1 of the greatest bands out there!!! RIP Michael you were a true loss!!!❤
You couldn't be an Aussie gen x and not love INXS.
All day! I love INXS for life! Micheal's voice is and will always be impeccable! Oh my goodness, how I miss him. I wish I had the chance to see them live!
I am!
O M G!!! Just had this cut come up in YTMusic autoplay...
I can't believe I forgot this .. (???)
. Haven't heard in years.
Stunned. I loved this song and now it is reborn in my life!!!!
Thank you INXS AND UA-cam Music😂😂🎉🎉🎉🎉
Here in July 2024❤ such a legend of Rock.
Rock Hall already! Come on! These guys are the best rock ‘n’ roll band in history!
Michael had the most sensual voice I heard in my life.
Michael was the most sensual man I've ever seen on screen. I really don't know any other male singers had this kind of sensuality that's not even effeminate.......
Have you not seen Jim Morrison?😂
The voice, the presence, the moves, the mannerisms, the charisma, the total effect
This is fast bcoming my favorite INXS song. Michael was so 🔥, and his voice is perfection. They are all incredibly talented.
Unmistakably Michael ❤️
R.I.P Mike!!!
INXS ruled then, and still does today.
People throw around the term "underrated" a lot, but Michael Hutchence and INXS truly are underrated. Hutchence's voice is right up there with Mich Jagger and Freddie Mercury in terms of "front man" status. This band had one great song after another. What a sound.
I agree that "underrated" is used too much and inappropriately at times in UA-cam comments. I think that goes for your post as well, unfortunately. INXS is one of the top Australian acts in history, selling over 75 million records, with several #1 songs and albums, at least 37 major music awards, and nearly a half-billion views on UA-cam. So, I think they've been rated just right.
2022 and he still is sadly
they are not underrated tho
This is so true! Just this tune. This is a fucking banger! He gives you everything of himself that's why. He is a free spirit expressing himself and it translates directly to me. Same when any genuinely talented people let everything else go and just do them. You get the most organic beautiful stuff
Hutchence and INXS were never underrated. Their concerts overseas in the Americas continent, England, and even in parts of Europe were highly appreciated and deeply respected in those regions, as well as back home here in Australia. They were known in the first half of the 1990s as one of the few best bands in the world to perform live. Even by some experts in music, INXS were being hailed as the best band to perform live at the time, after the release of both 'Kick' and 'X' albums. No one understands the word 'underrated', even tho it gets thrown around and mentioned alot. The band has sold many albums and soldout shows and achieved accolades in many music awards across the globe.
Inxs = Music, Style, Fashion .
And perhaps ELEGANCE as well, and not a waste in sight, lol :)
I forgot how crazy good this song is! One of the great choruses of the rock era!
Best front man of the 80s / 90s and went out at the top like a true rock god
IMO The best is Freddie Mercury
Agreed my friend
@@yusufgaridi9523 Well, all opinions are subjective. I know Freddie had a great voice, but he certainly cannot do what Michael was doing.
@@yusufgaridi9523Jim Morrison >>
Les deux avaient du talent, chacun dans leur style respectif. Mais pour une femme hétérosexuelle, Hutchence était un chanteur assez sensuel sur scène et dans ses clips
They were getting better and better
This song and those pants are so underrated.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥Fire pants lol
Those pants are ICONIC
Love Michael's vocals on this track.
Agree - shame about the trousers though.
My favorite rock band. The best front man ever! RIP Michael 💖
This song and the entire Elegantly Wasted album are criminally underrated.
It was another INXS classic and so underrated! I have every album, cassette/CD and also Michael's solo projects. News of his untimely passing left a void in all of us true fans and many of us are still heartbroken but Heaven is no longer missing an Angel.
@@charlotteg5341 hi my name is David for tribute to the legendary innovator D. Bowie thanks to my dear & rip father george and the tragical rip of M.

Hutchence simply oozes with sexuality, charismatic personality , voice,the way he moves , his attitude and stage presence..so sad that we lost him. One of best songs by them...lyrics are everything, they simply reminds me on my own life **
Abîmé.... Dommage.
.Il manque 😁👍💕
Yes he does ooze sexuality .. Perfect description 💋💋💋
I know. It’s incredible how his charisma comes through the screen!
Hutch had it all. Lots were envious of him. Geldof, Gallagher posers, the taxi driver who ran Hutch over were all extremely envious of him. RIP Legendary Hutch.
He’s My Angel
I saw him in a small club Toronto
In the mid eighties
Live 2 feet away
Mercy Me
🔥⚡️💥🌟
Such a shame I never fully appreciated these guys at the time. Such an all round talented band.
For sure... Been a fan since '84, turned more than one girlfriend onto them, one saw them in Philly with college friends and was hooked instantly.
They played Spring weekend at the college I attended, but I was so drunk and sick, I missed the show. Then... My wife and I had tickets to see them in '97, but I had to go out of town for work, so she gave them to a coworker. Michael died later that year. Two huge missed opportunities!
Who ever wrote moves like Jagger must NEVER have seen Michael move.....help me lord, Michael really had it!!!!
MamaBoots1111 Wherever he got his style from. He definitely came across as original.
Anthony White
He sure did! And, how many guys do we know who could make those pants look sexy?
I'm a guy I didn't much look much at pants but he was on one of the best albums ever made KICK. Wish he was still her.
Anthony White Opps.....sorry Anthony....I wish he was still here too.
Just a girly picture of pretty sunset for dude I understand. Yea they had a lot of fans. He's already considered a great for the short time he was here. Have you heard the singer for Vintage Trouble. I think HE"S the best newer singer around.
Michael was such a larger than life presence. I miss him and INXS making phenomenal music 🎶 for the masses !!!
I can't forget inxs or Michael and i am not alone there ❤ R.I.P Michael we miss you and inxs.
INXS is definitely the best group ever! Michael Hutchance will forever be the best frontman of all time!
His name was Michael Hutchense.
@@janicesorochuk8403 actually its Hutchence!
real name from australia?
it is hutchense. I have the cassette tape.
read up.
In my opinion, MH was this generation's Jim Morrison. He had that same aura about him. He is missed. INXS kicked ass and still does.
They come to Vegas every so often.
My favorite group of all time
Michael was considered as the person to portray Jim Morrison in The Doors movie. Eventually it went to Val Kilmer who did a fantastic job, but I have no doubt that MH would have been perfect. I swear to God he studied Morrison's moves and techniques because he sure did remind me of Morrison immediately.
@@underscore2824 You're misinterpreting what I'm trying to say. I'm not comparing his singing skills to Morrison because in that regard, they're definitely two different people and MH is the better of the two. But MH moves like Morrison and caresses the mic like JM did in so many ways and that doesn't take anything away from MH. Morrison was the best of his generation in moves and it's a flattering statement that MH moves like him.
Because he got Bob Geldof's wife , sure he would not allow it ever
That bass line is sick
Carries the tune!!
Totally!!
A timeless gem of a tune from a truly timeless band! Brings me back to ‘97 - and ‘87 just as well! Rest In Eternal Peace, MH! Gone too soon!
An underrated gem of a song. Hutch and the band were amazing. They were pure rock n roll
Saw INXS in 1987. Incredible live show. Michael Hutchence, sooo sexy. Always love this band. His death was such a tragedy. RIP Michael.
Beaucoup de substance drogues et encore maintenant qui mene a l ' addition mortel dommage pour eux la vie est Paris tres triste
One of the few bands that sounded just as good live as they did on there albums.
Абсолютно верно,эти ребята не разочаровывали и живым выступлением
I'll watch anything with Michael Hutchence in it.
taralish I did too!!!!
Me too!
The Best front man in my eye ❤
I love this song - I remember watching this on MTV when it came out in '97 and thought wow here we go again - they have another hit here.
This song in my opinion has not outdated. Michael was such a beautiful singer and hot. Gone too soon . Inxs were the best band. Rip Michael.
God no. Hard to believe this is 25 years old. Think what videos looked like in '72..25 years prior to this!
I love the way he slithers around...hypnotic.
Absutely True, such an amasing frontman
The sadly missed and gorgeous Michael hutchence will live forever through his amazing music! Inhale the future exhale the past! And where words fail music speaks? My tattoos?! Xx
Hands down absolutely one of the greatest rock songs ever.
Anyone here in 2024 ? I love him and this sexy song ❤
I am here in 2024, and yes ❤ this great song, video, theme, music, and of course the band. 💯 agree with you.
November 11,2024. INXS is NOT in RnRHoF which is surprising. When Michael Hutchens was alive he could have had ANY woman he wanted.
Yep I listen when I can handle it. I just don’t like the song and then I love it maybe because Mike’s dead and it was typical of his life and all the hangers on.
@@SLAYERSWINE1Not true
@@anetaintegra8543 Look it up. They are NOT in RnRHoF.
You know those songs that defy aging?...this! This right here chaps and lasses be that tune ❤
Stunning song all around.....Michael Hutchence this incredibly gifted artist was one of the very few men that could wear chequerd trousers and STILL be absolutely Gorgeous !! Then again Michael was GORGEOUS !!
INXS had one of the most solid catalogues ever. Each of their records was individually outstanding whether they were commercially successful or not.
He FAR outstripped Jagger in everything. Looks Moves Voice. He was just perfect. So sad we lost him. Shine bright wherever you are Michael. Know you are so loved and so missed.
;;;;;;;; FUCK...... OFF
He is up there with Jagger and morrison. Just a notch below and only because the music the doors and stones put out is just more and better. Music is subjective. Saying one is better than another is so difficult. INXS is a great band that released some great music. The doors and stones released iconic music in an iconic era. What hurts INXS, and nothing they can do about it, is they defined the 80's. The 80's is a decade not known for great music. Some will rip me for it...and the 80's had some great music, but compared to the late 60's or early 90's not so much.
Totally agree, still gives me chills when I watch INXS videos.
ambertjeblue : Mick! & Michael ! Do Not! Put Down 1 for the Other! I Am A Black Woman! From the 60s! " THEY BOTH DA SHIT"! STILL! 'N 2019 & BEYOND!;)PEACE
I totally agree. He was by far the best! His unique movements, his voice extremely elegant and sensual.
Hutchence oozes cool.. What a frontman.
That is definitely him, this was the last big single before his suicide.
Zachery Carter Lol, Zachary, this was their comeback single for the new album they were working on when he committed suicide. Blimey, some people.
When did I say that? Everyone is equal.
You seem to have split personalities....
Zachery Carter Everybody is better than you Zach..no debate
He was in my eyes the ultimate performer. What a man!
This song sounds much better than I remembered. Inxs deserves to be remembered for being the great rock band they were. They rode the line between rock and pop no other band did since the 60's/70's.
He was a unique combination or Jagger, Boland, Prince and Morrison... A mind blowing talent and sexiness in abundance.. RIP MH
Pas d'accord genre talent different
INXS was one of my favorite bands of all time. These Aussie guys knew how to bring it 😎
Oh That voice still gives me chills he did things with his voice that just drove me absolutely crazy
there has never nor will there ever be another Michael Hutchins. makes me sing, and makes me cry.
I'll watch anything with Michael Hutchence in it.
Underrated song, underrated album... What a pitty!
my favorite group
Elegantly Wasted might be their finest album, for me. So much passion in the vocals, and the band sounded tighter than ever.
It was their best album.
@@davidjohnson1494 Yeah a tune like 'Everything' was great... Better than anything off Kick or X easily...
Sadly, Michael Hutchence didn't quite live up to Keith Richards' quote that inspired the title of this song.
Not for me... KIck did it for me. Michael so dark in this album. No doubt due to his head injury, so tragic..
But have to admit the rest of the guys in top form..
Michael Hutchence was the greatest singer and front man ever.
I agree with you 100 percent live baby live is coming to cinemas also mystify the movie is out but I have no idea when it is coming to the USA it is a shame that he died so young he was truly amazing
And damn sexy
@@ioanamarinmarin1589 for sure I think I'm actually drooling right now😍😍
@@kristinstid886 yeah me too haha
After jim lol
This brother was born to sing personally I think he's better than all bono Mick and so on 👍⚡
Verissimo / unico michael
michael hutchence was so soulful and really unique. he was so unique. he was really soulful. he is such a beautiful soul. he had such a beautiful heart and soul. he had such a beautiful heart.
I was about 8 yrs old when a pen pal from Perth Australia 🇦🇺 sent me a tape of a band that started making waves there. The min I heard their music I knew this was a band for life, I grew up with this music. Relied on it for the bad times and some of my best times of my life. Till this day they still get me through bad s@$! as I near 50 yrs old. I loved these guys & they feel like family. I was lucky enough to see them multiple times in my life. Even seen 1 concert with J.D.(met him) as the frontman, not the same but still a damn good show! Now I just collect everything I can get my hands on. 😉 So yeah best band ever with the best frontman of all times Michael Hutchence. He will forever be missed & my heart still breaks to this day, tremendous loss. Andrew is still making music, very different than INXS, but its pretty awesome! 😘💖💕😍🔥🎵🎶🔥
I was 11 when listen this song
Hutchence is a legend and he always will be and he knew it. They made some great music and I reckon the musicianship within the band also was great. God Bless.
Miss you so much Michael…
❤😢
I got to see INXS a few weeks before Michael died. It was at a small venue in Chicago, they were playing fantastic and Michael was talking about how it was their 20th anniversary he seemed very optimistic and grounded and the band couldn't be closer. I am glad my freind asked me to go and see them.
Dave Fieramosca wow
Michael Hutchence was truly a multitalented icon and indeed a force on his own to be dealt with and i mean that with much respect and admiration. I took it so hard when he chose to leave us and it is a little difficult to watch him in a video or hear him sing. It saddens'me very much that he felt such despair that he left us like he did. So tragic. Love you Michael and may you be at peace , my friend.
@@kristinapisciotta1982 Michael was murdered
Lucky you! I wish I had seen them all live.
Yes but Paula had her own agenda didn't she?@@MRayanna
Another top song and no air play! Tee!
Interesting how this song fits better in 2021 then in 1997. This would be a mad hit today.
The song is amazing. INXS has a bunch of really good songs, but this is right up there with the top three or four in my opinion.
The chorus is devastating, and the passion in his voice is off the charts.
He doesn’t have the greatest range in the world that’s the only thing that probably keeps him from being mentioned with people like Robert Plant and Freddie Mercury, it’s a decent range and the chorus more than compensates for it.
Just a great great song and I love how they snuck in that jib at oasis too.
Oasis deserves every bit of it after that nasty trick they pulled on him.
This band will forever own a piece of my musical heart.
same here
That man is beautiful 😍 rest in peace Micheal
My fav album from them. Unfortunately was the last with Michael.
Shake the tree my fav off the record.
Happy birthday Michael Hutchance
Michael Hutchinson was a beast! and INXS was one hell of a band! Who is jamming like this today?
Michael was so unique. Friggin definition of cool. Love INXS.👍
22 January - happy Birthday, Michael. I remember forever. Love.
Michael Hutchence had great and strong voice- one of the kind…. His interpretations were unbelievable- it’s hard to find today this kind of singer and frontman ….. he was fantastic!
Have you ever heard Rival Sons ?
Elegantly wasted for sure! One of the best frontmen ever, Michael had it all ....
I saw them in Orange County, CA 1987 for my 20th Birthday. Michael was an awesome singer and performer. One of the BEST concerts ever. Gone to soon.
Went to every concert they did, love them all.
This man is perfection. Every move he makes is full of sexiness... This is incredible
Great band
This song was a hit in 1997! I wore pants like those but in blue! The good old times!
Living in Australia for years. This song reminds me of the time.
January 22nd. Happy Birthday Michael Hutchence.. ❤️ INXS music lives on as your legacy🌹...Listening to what would have been an elegantly evolved style. RIP
The music never dies...
❤️
In 1991 i was a teenager and i had inxs in my ears,stuck in my room, because my parents were fighting and made a lots of noise.now i'm 47 and i'm still listening to this wonderful band.
I just love the bass in this, well I love everything about this tune!!! It just ROCKS!!!
Michael Hutchence of a rare breed....immensely talented yet very relatable. Left a humongous imprint on this world and most definitely doing it so in the next one.
SO incredibly talented, charismatic and a gorgeous singer...SO elegantly wasted and SO greatly missed !!
That bassline fucking purrs. What a phenomenal band. They were at the peak when this was released...miss you hutcho.
I still miss Michael everyday. The weird thing is that when he died I was going through such a horrible time with my clinical depression and heard the news of his passing while I was in the hospital. Such a sad time but still remember it like yesterday.
One of the best Band's ever.
It is actually illegal how exotic Michael was. My lord, i need a cigarette after this video.
Yup, i'd go for one too
So do I and I dont smoke.
More like a pregnancy test, LOL 😲😈😍
He oozed sex...in the most sensual easy going manner. I miss him! He didn't off himself intentionally. I believe it was autoerotic asphyxiation!
@@Charlie-cz3jh no suïcide. Watch the docu Mitstify. Paula Yates spraid the rumor of autoerotic asphyxiation, because she couldn't handle the trued. Michael had serious brain damage which he kept a secret. His personality was chanced because of that, he lost his taste and smell, he had serious mood swings and he was depressed, had a doctor who gave him alot of prozac without therapy and he used more and more drugs those last years of his life. He was in a destructive relation with a woman who loved him very deep, but she had a lot of problems of her own, a hard custody battle with her ex Bob Geldoff and she was afraid Michael woud leave her ( he had 2 other women beside her the months before his death, which she knew) and she was manipulatif. Michael was in despair these last hours, it's so so sad. The docu Mistify is made with love and tells the story of Michael. It was all very sad..and a great loss of a great and loving man and father.
Saw inxs on this tour just before Michael hutchence passed away. Still terribly missed
I loved and love INXS. The great thing about them was that Michael Hutchence was the front man and the band was always featured prominently in the videos & on stage. They were a band. A tight af band & it showed in their sound. #INXSForHallOfFame
SO cool
MH was lovely. I've always loved how the other guys looked so natural in all the videos. They'd always look like they were having so much just hamming it up
I was 13 when this song was released. I remember watching the music video almost every morning before school when it came on MTV. This song should have been huge. I still listen to it and am amazed by how good it is. 😌
Oh why can't we have music like this today! DAMN IT! I WANT IT!
My favorite singer and frontman. Great band, too. This whole album is strong, not just this song.
MH killing it in the Plaid Pants Of Infamy. Nobody else could have pulled that off. Big loves.
Even after their heyday, they turned out some terrific songs. This should've been a hit.
Crazy this was 20 + years ago. Still remember how excited I was that they were back. Still 100% cool. We all miss you Hutch.
Michael was probably the greatest cat and the most handsome man in modern music.
You are so missed Michael Hutchinson!!!! One hell of a fronftman, and you were gorgeous!!!!❤❤
I absolutely adore this song no matter how long
