Pronounced In Excess. Great band. Sad story, their front man/lead singer Michael Hutchence committed suicide. They have some great music. Suicide Blonde, Listen like thieves, Devil Inside. Oh yeah, they were from Australia.
@@redarmysoja Actually, he didn't commit suicide. It was an unfortunate accident that certainly appeared to be a suicide but I'll not put the details here.
@@lynw1623 They are not a total household name, at least not where I live (Germany) so I kind of know where Doug was coming from. Did not know about the crowd record! Fantastic band in any case.
Had a friend in school, who loved this band. He was always a little strange which was great because I was as well. Right before we started high school, he was diagnosed with cancer. Though he received treatment, he could never recover. By tenth grade he had lost an eye and all of his hair. He suffered greatly. He got picked on for wearing an eye patch by a football player at the school. We beat his ass and put him in the hospital for two weeks. We got in big trouble. But we were protecting our friend. He died later that year. He never even got his drivers license. But every time I hear INXS, I think of him. That’s been almost 30 years ago.I hope you are at peace and still jamming my old friend. Love you and miss you. RIP David.
Michael Hutchens got most of the attention as the super charismatic front man, but the whole band is just killer. Everyone seems to get their moment to shine, and they are so tight!
I was so in love with Michael Hutchense, and it gutted me when he died, but the group as a whole was just amazing! Great songs, inventive videos, sex appeal . . . Yeah, they had it all.🥰
Michael was a natural baritone, but he could still really hit those high notes so well, and make it look effortless. Very gifted, and underrated as a singer
Never tear us apart, I agree this song is amazing. Saw it performed live in Brisbane Australia. Kirk’s sax playing gave me shivers up my spine. So good. Their back catalogue is the playlist of my youth. 💕
Man, INXS was my music obsession in the late 80's, early 90s! Hutchence had SO much talent and charisma. I'm so glad to see you reacting to them. :D Try "The Stairs", "Devil Inside", "The One Thing", or "Never Tear Us Apart". Really anything by them would be awesome. ETA: adding "Need You Tonight/Mediate" to that list!
He did "Need You Tonight", but I'd love to see him do the longer version with "Mediate" on the end. (Speaking of, the video is inspired by "Subterranean Homesick Blues" by Bob Dylan. Is he an artist you can react to, Jamel, or has he gotten blocked? That's a great song and a cool video, which would be awesome to do opposite "Mediate" by INXS.)
Pronounced ’in excess’. The original line up of INXS seen here are: Michael Hutchins - vocals (1960 - 1997) Andrew Farris - guitar, keyboard, vocals, composer Jon Farriss - drummer Tim Farris - guitar Garry Gary Beers - bass Kirk Pengilly - guitar, saxophone, vocals And not for nothing but "Dirty Vegas" with J.D. Fortune was a great song, too.
@onewrytr Dirty Vegas is a name of a group with a very popular and catchy song called "Days Go By". It won a Grammy I believe. Here's the link ua-cam.com/video/gLCduDJVksc/v-deo.html JD Fortune has an incredible voice and personality. I feel bad for what happened to him. He went down the rabbit hole of drugs which was unfortunate. I'm not totally sure if the Farris brothers could have put the brakes on his spiral out of control. JD Fortune is making a comeback. He's on UA-cam. Pretty Vegas ua-cam.com/video/a8SSDvDI5yg/v-deo.html Afterglow ua-cam.com/video/OnTelUJrDhc/v-deo.html
What was unique about INXS was that they started as a regular rock band then mixed funk and rap and disco into their sound and became twice as successful.
I'm with you "New Sensation" is my favorite INXS song. "What You Need" is a VERY close second. This song made me a fan. Should hear both Thieves and Kick, great albums and my favorites. Love almost every song on both!
@@markdavidson9100 Is that song a B-Side? I have it on my double KICK CD. There's no words to explain, the strongest love in vain?! Is that the one you're talking about? First song on the CD w/B-Sides. Love most of their songs anyway 💕
One of the greatest bands ever!!! They literally have fused all genres within their discography: dance/rock/funk/jazz/reggae and more... so happy you discovered them. Keep listening...from a huge INXS fan🙌. We miss you Hutch.❤️🙏❤️
I was rude and jumped off another reactor’s channel as soon as I saw the notification. You are my absolute favorite person (besides fam!) in the world!! Please more INXS. You said it right!! I jump on these that I am afraid will be blocked within 15 minutes!!
I just now watched the film INXS: Never Tear Us Apart. Not the doc,but the movie staring Luke Arnold from Black Sails as Micheal. Made me cry. It shows why his personality changed so badly,as well as everything else. Laid it all out there. So well done. The ending is so beautiful. They clear up the horrible rumors about his death in 1997.
'In Excess' is probably the best way to pronounce this. I've always thought of them as the Australian Rolling Stones. This song is really jamming and very original. Sad story about the singer....RIP.
I’m probably dating myself, but I remember the Casey Kasem Top 40 show every week, and he said they named themselves because someone told them to “name themselves ‘In Excess’ because there’s too many of you, and you’re too loud”. As a 10-year old, I chuckled.
Say it like "In excess" . Definitely the funkiest band to come out of Australia. They had plenty of great songs. "One Thing" was their first hit in the US, though mostly on college stations. "Don't Change", "Original Sin" "Burn for You" "New Sensation" and "Need You Tonight" are all great songs. Thanks for listening and keeping great music alive! Peace from SF Also, if you want to listen to a killer Talking Heads song listen to "The Great Curve". The Stop Making Sense version would be good. The live energy is great on this one.
I love this band! INXS (sounds like “in excess”)! Great band with mega hits like “Need You Tonight”, New Sensation “, “Suicide Blonde”, “Never Tear Us Apart”, “Original Sin”, and many more! Michael Hutchence was a very magnetic and sexy lead singer who left us way too soon (RIP)!!❤️❤️
Thank you for doing this.. not a bigger band in the world in the late 80's outside of G-N'R. One of the best front men ever, Michael Hutchence. R.I.P..
INXS was an incredible band from the 80s.. yes, the 80s. Great musicianship, lyrics, rhythms, presentation.. extremely talented in all rock-n-roll departments.
Hey Jamel: INXS got your shoulders moving, brought you the funky beat, the cool video and the sax. I guess they gave you "What You Need"! Love your reaction to one of my favorite bands from the 80s.
I remember I was out tux hunting for my Senior Orom in 1986 when this song came on the radio! It was SO NEW and COOL & I loved listening to it every chance I got.
Hey Jamel! This is one of INXS (pronounced In Excess) best songs. Michael Hutchence was one of the best frontmen around during the heights of their musical career. Even Axl Rose, was super impressed by him. And that's when GnR were the biggest band in rock. Please consider these other INXS songs: "Kiss the Dirt" (my favorite), "New Sensation", "The One Thing", "I Send a Message", "Bitter Tears", "Devil Inside". They were a great band for quite a time from the 80's into the 90's. Add "Original Sin" and "Suicide Blonde" to that song pile. You can't go wrong with any of them. ✌🏽 out, Jamel.
Pronounced like “in excess.” If their frontman, Michael Hutchence, had not died so young, they would still be international superstars. His showmanship was incredible.
Excellent suggestion! Every single song on "The Swing" is a keeper - that whole run of albums from "Shabooh Shoobah" through to X they never really put a foot wrong - but you're right that's a highlight one should interest Jamel. It even has Daryl Hall (!!!) on backing vocals, so it ticks every one of Jamel's boxes :-)
Meet Michael Hutchence, one of the most charismatic frontmen ever created. Fabulous voice and the performance level was always through the roof; best live band. Michael wrote almost all of the lyrics and most of the melodies...a truly poetic soul I've seen him on American Bandstand dancing better than the kids on the dance floor. Love Disappear, Suicide Blone, Never Tear Us Apart, New Sensation, Time,.....I was a HUGE fan in the 80s and still am.
"I love dat saxophone like I love my organ and my cowbell!" lol I had to laugh at that line. Jamel, you have to be one of the funniest reactors I've watched.
What a great pick to feature. Michael Hutchence was the whole package. A true rock star if there ever was one. He had it all and yet like so many highly creative individuals he struggled with mental health and drug problems. Sadly we will never know what could have been. I lost a family member the same way. Deeply creative musician and artist, lovely and caring on the outside but haunted by their inner demons to a level we can't understand. Like shooting stars they are. Burn brightly and just disappear one day.
Omg! INXS!!!! They had great songs! ‘Need You Tonight’, ‘Never Tear Us Apart’, ‘Original Sin’, ‘Don’t Change’, ‘Listen Like Thieves’, etc etc etc 🙏❤️❤️❤️
Back in the day (when I liked to party) if the party started dragging, all I had to do was play some INXS, and people perked right up! I love this band!
INXS has soooo many great songs. New Sensation, Devil Inside, Listen Like Thieves, Falling Down The Mountain, Original Sin, Send A Message, etc...... a true rabbit hole
Oh, bringin me back to the 80’s. I have to throw a few out there now. Murray Head “One Night in Bangkok” Fine Young Cannibals “Good Thing” Real Life “Send Me An Angel”
So glad you have discovered one of the most amazing bands. Was lucky enough to see them live at least ten times over 15 years or so. Music is genre-less, and simply awesome. Enjoy and suggest you listen to all of their different styles and albums. Try "The Strangest Party" "I Send A Message," and a couple is slower classics "Never Tear Us Apart" or "By My Side"
Oh man, this brings me back to high school! I was lucky enough to see these boys live, what a great show! Rest in Power, Michael, we still have your music, and for that, nothing can tear us apart. ❤
Ahhh yesss here we go! Bring on the Aussie classics!!!! Haha here are some more INXS songs ;) - By my side, Original sin, Beautiful girl, Mystify, Need you tonight, New sensation, Never tear us apart, Suicide blonde, Don't Change, Devil inside, Good times ( with Jimmy Barnes), Kiss the dirt (falling down the mountain)..........so many options and you're gonna love them all!!!!! Who agrees for some of their songs from their live show "live baby live" I think it's needed to understand this bands impact!!!!! So keen for you to discover their music :)
I saw them at the Beacon Theatre not long before Michael died. My favorite song of theirs is "Listen Like Thieves". As others have said "The Stairs" is right up your alley.
Even though they were extremely popular in the 80’s. I think they are extremely underrated. Their music still enjoyable to me Many great tunes ahead buddy!
"Falling down the mountain" .. "New Sensation"... "Devil Inside"... "Original Sin".... All great INXS tracks and some of the many anthems of my Aussie youth.
For INXS, check out "Need You Tonight" for a good groove, and "The Stairs" for lyrics I think you'll love. EDIT: Never mind, you just posted Need You Tonight!

Pronounced In Excess. Great band. Sad story, their front man/lead singer Michael Hutchence committed suicide. They have some great music. Suicide Blonde, Listen like thieves, Devil Inside. Oh yeah, they were from Australia.
Yeah, we always pronounces it
in "X" "S"

@@redarmysoja Actually, he didn't commit suicide. It was an unfortunate accident that certainly appeared to be a suicide but I'll not put the details here.
Please do The Specials! You will thank me! ua-cam.com/video/cntvEDbagAw/v-deo.html
Imagine not knowing who INXS are and hearing all their songs for the first time!😍
Mind blowing!
🇦🇺🥰🐾🕺
Hard to imagine especially since I grew up in 80s Australia.
That would be cool, but I still remember "Just keep walking" when it was on Countdown. Was a fan from that day on.
When I was a little kid, I thought half of their songs were Robert Palmer songs. Lol
You have just discovered one of the most underrated bands of all-time. INXS is fantastic.
Underrated / give me a break. They hold the crowd record for Wembley Stadium.
Underrated in that they aren't in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and should be.
@@lynw1623 I was going to jump in also. One of the biggest bands on the planet at the time. Nothing underrated about them
@@lynw1623 They are not a total household name, at least not where I live (Germany) so I kind of know where Doug was coming from. Did not know about the crowd record! Fantastic band in any case.
Not underrated in Australia, underrated overseas perhaps althoygh they had plenty of success in the UK
Michael Hutchence was a treasure. Most underrated baritone.
Michael to me: If Mick Jagger & Jim Morrison had a baby.
YES ,VERY under rated vocalist !! HANDSOME also !! 💜
Bono said of Michael that Michael didn't understand just how good his singing was.
Was he a baritone? He sounds more like a tenor...
THIS statement right here!!!!!!
Had a friend in school, who loved this band. He was always a little strange which was great because I was as well. Right before we started high school, he was diagnosed with cancer. Though he received treatment, he could never recover. By tenth grade he had lost an eye and all of his hair. He suffered greatly.

Love you and miss you. RIP David.
He's Still Jammin Man
Just Not In Pain!!!
One of Australia's best bands of all time. Proud to be an Aussie with this one
Onya mate!
That's how I feel about them too
Proud Aussie too. And so grateful I got to see him perform, twice.
It was so tragic when he died. 😞
🤘🤘
I feel like INXS is a criminally underrated band.
I agree!
Mark, you have no clue how right you actually are. They’re one of my all time favorites so I completely agree
Here here!
Sign the petition to get them into the Hall of Fame. Best ever band out of Oz.
This was the song that got everyone on the dance floor.
I miss the 80's
Me too Sir, badly.
Michael Hutchens got most of the attention as the super charismatic front man, but the whole band is just killer. Everyone seems to get their moment to shine, and they are so tight!
great band Jamal...may i suggest "mystify"?..in fact..that whole album 'kick" is amazing!!
Kick is one of the best albums of the 80s, period.
ua-cam.com/video/PeN28Ji7UAI/v-deo.html
Falling down the mountain is my favorite song by INXS. Give it a listen if you get a chance.
@@coolpikachu1080
The song called „Kiss the dirt (falling down the mountain)” 😉
The Orginal Sin!!!
Few bands could match the talent of INXS. Incredible band.
Michael Hutchins (singer) was kinda the Jim Morrison of the 80’s, as far as sex appeal goes.
OH, YES !! He was VERY SEXY singer ,moves and the LOOK !?? 👍💜🎼
Sang down in the same lower keys like Morrison too. No falsetto there
That would be Michael Hutchence..... :)
kinda? somebody told Jim he had a few more albums to make; guess who got Jim's soul?
Truth!!
Closing in on 40 years later, and *STILL* an absolute banger of a song.
"New Sensation" is also an excellent INXS song.
I was so in love with Michael Hutchense, and it gutted me when he died, but the group as a whole was just amazing! Great songs, inventive videos, sex appeal . . . Yeah, they had it all.🥰
You are 100% right Jocelyn
Right there with ya! Love love love ❤️
INXS- "The One Thing" & "Don't Change". Early stuff- awesome stuff.
Don't change is my favorite from them. Great tune
@@scottlee7458 Have to agree!
I got on VHS their best hits from 80-90.
+1
Don't Change Live - ua-cam.com/video/Ts132zJ8jyc/v-deo.html
I think sometimes we Australians take our music for granted...when it’s played overseas we are so damn proud of how freaking awesome our music is!
"Need You Tonight" was a big hit for them here in the U.S. I think you would like it.
amazing song
my wedding song lol
Michael was a natural baritone, but he could still really hit those high notes so well, and make it look effortless. Very gifted, and underrated as a singer
Never tear us apart is my favorite INXS tune.
Great tune.
That is a great INXS Song!!!
Nah Need You Tonight
Yes my vote for top INXS track
This fights for first with Don't Change. My two faves by them.
INXS was a band of the coolest cats. Every song was perfection. Coolest band, yup. RIP Michael, gone too soon.
Check out "They could never tear us apart"!!!
Great tune! :)
Amazing song! 🙌👍
Paloma Faith does a good cover of this song.
@@AdrianDeVore Pretty cool, first time hearing. :)
It's "Never Tear Us Apart."
I love INXS...Forever 💯!!!! Congratulations from Brazil ! 🇧🇷🇧🇷👍😉.
Never Tear Us Apart is another real good song from those guys.
Never tear us apart, I agree this song is amazing. Saw it performed live in Brisbane Australia. Kirk’s sax playing gave me shivers up my spine. So good. Their back catalogue is the playlist of my youth. 💕
Except if you are at Adelaide Oval watching Port Power
Slow but an awesome song. I recommended that Jamal check out The One Thing.
Our music in the 80s freakin rocked, man ! 🙃
Man, INXS was my music obsession in the late 80's, early 90s! Hutchence had SO much talent and charisma. I'm so glad to see you reacting to them. :D Try "The Stairs", "Devil Inside", "The One Thing", or "Never Tear Us Apart". Really anything by them would be awesome.

Devil Inside .. need reaction
This was the song and the album that vaulted INXS into superstardom.
Got to do New Sensation. Preferably the Live at Wembley version.
INXS and Michael Hutchence are an Aussie gift to the planet. I enjoyed dancing along with you from Canada!
Pronounced ’in excess’.
The original line up of INXS seen here are:
Michael Hutchins - vocals (1960 - 1997)
Andrew Farris - guitar, keyboard, vocals, composer
Jon Farriss - drummer
Tim Farris - guitar
Garry Gary Beers - bass
Kirk Pengilly - guitar, saxophone, vocals
And not for nothing but "Dirty Vegas" with J.D. Fortune was a great song, too.
But we all said "inks" at first. lol
I think the title was Pretty Vegas. It definitely smokes! ua-cam.com/video/a8SSDvDI5yg/v-deo.html

This was a serious club banger in the 80s. I've adored INXS since 1983!
RIP Michael Hutchence... would love to see you react to Never Tear Ua Apart, it has a beautiful saxophone solo 😄
What was unique about INXS was that they started as a regular rock band then mixed funk and rap and disco into their sound and became twice as successful.

i remember my son discovering this band, he didnt get how the spelling was either, laughed my ass off
IN-X-S
Can't believe Michael has been gone for more than 20 years...Rip🖤. INXS, one of the all time best.
Check out INXS "Devil Inside"
Say it like "In excess" . Definitely the funkiest band to come out of Australia. They had plenty of great songs. "One Thing" was their first hit in the US, though mostly on college stations. "Don't Change", "Original Sin" "Burn for You" "New Sensation" and "Need You Tonight" are all great songs. Thanks for listening and keeping great music alive!

Just came to say.. All that.. Yasssss!
INXS has always had the best music. Michael Hutchence was a fabulous singer. Great loss for rock n roll.
Thank you for doing this.. not a bigger band in the world in the late 80's outside of G-N'R. One of the best front men ever, Michael Hutchence. R.I.P..
It is so sad that he killed himself. It still leaves a musical void.
@@bbb462cid JD did a decent job in his stead but no one can ever replace him. No one..
Yes Michael Jim Morrisson and Stevie Wright. Best frontmen ever.
INXS was an incredible band from the 80s.. yes, the 80s. Great musicianship, lyrics, rhythms, presentation.. extremely talented in all rock-n-roll departments.
As mentioned elsewhere, it's pronounced, "In Excess".
R.I.P. Michael can’t get enough of this band man!! Timeless music. 🎤🎤🎤
INXS ! We are going to get some great reactions.
They fit squarely in the 80's...they brought great energy and some great sounds!
"Don't Change" always been a favorite.
that's a song that easily defines the '80s at its musical best
The whole Shabooh Shoobah album is my favorite of theirs.
@@falcongal63 I listen to it about once a week.
Hey Jamel: INXS got your shoulders moving, brought you the funky beat, the cool video and the sax. I guess they gave you "What You Need"! Love your reaction to one of my favorite bands from the 80s.
Love this song and also "Don't change" is a great song from them. Thanks so much Jamel!!
That's another INXS jam. Springsteen did a great cover.
@@tonydougwright1235 I did not know that.
Welcome to the 80's we knew how to jam, and the music was awesome.
3 INXS classics: Need you tonight, mystify, suicide blonde
A favorite of mine is Devil Inside. Appropriate for Halloween-time!
Suicide Blonde- One of my all time favorites. I've even used that theme for a Halloween costume.
I remember I was out tux hunting for my Senior Orom in 1986 when this song came on the radio! It was SO NEW and COOL & I loved listening to it every chance I got.
INXS - Beautiful Girl
Definitely need to react to this next.
RIP Michael Hutchence, you are much missed.
"Burn for you" & Beautiful Girl" are two of their best! Aussie Rock Classics.
Geezus I'm gonna have to go listen to Burn for You!! Its been way too long since I heard that!! Thanks

Have to recommend “This Time,” “Kiss the Dirt(Falling Down the Mountain),” & “Shine Like It Does,” all from the album Listen like Thieves.
Best album. Played it to death
Kiss the dirt - a super classic video! I Just love it
Back in the day (when I liked to party) if the party started dragging, all I had to do was play some INXS, and people perked right up! I love this band!
I was the one that requested it!!
Lol, thanks so much Jamel !!! 😊👍🏼
@Francis M I have been waiting for a reaction to this song requested it on a different reactor channels never did it glad Jamel did!!!!! Thanks 😊
INXS has soooo many great songs. New Sensation, Devil Inside, Listen Like Thieves, Falling Down The Mountain, Original Sin, Send A Message, etc...... a true rabbit hole
INXS absolutely one of best of the 80’s & 90’s! The early stuff is so great and so often overlooked. “Not Enough Time” such a sweet song. 💕
My favorite band from the 80's! They were so good in concert too! RIP MICHAEL
Yes sir, INXS AN AWESOME BAND! ... Never tear is apart... And...Need you tonight. Equally as awesome songs from them !
You gotta watch their live at Wembley concert..... ICONIC!!!! What a frontman..... natural performer and super talented tight band!!!!
Oh, bringin me back to the 80’s. I have to throw a few out there now.
Murray Head “One Night in Bangkok”
Fine Young Cannibals “Good Thing”
Real Life “Send Me An Angel”
So glad you have discovered one of the most amazing bands. Was lucky enough to see them live at least ten times over 15 years or so. Music is genre-less, and simply awesome. Enjoy and suggest you listen to all of their different styles and albums. Try "The Strangest Party" "I Send A Message," and a couple is slower classics "Never Tear Us Apart" or "By My Side"
Oh man, this brings me back to high school! I was lucky enough to see these boys live, what a great show!
Rest in Power, Michael, we still have your music, and for that, nothing can tear us apart. ❤
Ahhh yesss here we go! Bring on the Aussie classics!!!! Haha here are some more INXS songs ;) - By my side, Original sin, Beautiful girl, Mystify, Need you tonight, New sensation, Never tear us apart, Suicide blonde, Don't Change, Devil inside, Good times ( with Jimmy Barnes), Kiss the dirt (falling down the mountain)..........so many options and you're gonna love them all!!!!! Who agrees for some of their songs from their live show "live baby live" I think it's needed to understand this bands impact!!!!! So keen for you to discover their music :)
I saw them at the Beacon Theatre not long before Michael died.
My favorite song of theirs is "Listen Like Thieves". As others have said "The Stairs" is right up your alley.
They’re my best band of all time. Michael oozed sex appeal! RIP! They will always be my No. 1 ❤
Even though they were extremely popular in the 80’s. I think they are extremely underrated. Their music still enjoyable to me Many great tunes ahead buddy!
Yes!!!!! So happy you are checking out INXS. So many great songs.
I remember when INXS was coming in concert. The local DJ on the radio said "this is waist down rock and roll!!! Love the song great reaction.
"Falling down the mountain" .. "New Sensation"... "Devil Inside"... "Original Sin".... All great INXS tracks and some of the many anthems of my Aussie youth.
For INXS, check out "Need You Tonight" for a good groove, and "The Stairs" for lyrics I think you'll love.
EDIT: Never mind, you just posted Need You Tonight!
The stairs is an awesome song.
"Stairs" is as smart as a rock song gets. It shows too, that Michael Hutchence was the dude with HEART. Makes Bono look like a poser iin retrospecrs.
