INXS - Need You Tonight (Need You Tonight (7'' Single) (1987)) (Version 2009) Written by: Michael Hutchence , Andrew Farriss Liner Notes: "1987 .We had finished touring "Listen Like Thieves" .We had started recording the next studio album ........"Kick". We took a short break. I had written several pieces of music at home in Sydney. Michael was living in Hong Kong at the time. We had decided to get together in Hong Kong and song write. I had packed my bag and called a taxi to take me to the international airport. While the taxi was approaching I thought I'd just mess around musically for a little while on my 8 track. I suddenly found myself playing the riff and chords that eventually became "Need You Tonight". The taxi driver was oblivious to my creative urges and reminded me that unless I got in the cab I was going to miss my flight. I grabbed the demo and a rough cassette copy of the song and got in the cab. Sunday 21st June. I flew to Hong Kong and drove to the Watson Estate where we were to spend the next 2 weeks writing. I met Michael and played him some of the music I had already written in Sydney. We listened to the different song ideas, including "Kick", "Need You Tonight" and others. As soon as he heard the music to "Need you Tonight" he immediately started writing the lyrics. Michael was always naturally gifted in his ability to articulate his thoughts poetically on paper. "Need You Tonight" was our first world wide number one hit." -- Andrew Farriss Trivia <b>...</b>

INXS (pronounced "in excess", In-X-S) are an Australian rock band, formed as The Farriss Brothers in 1977 in Sydney, New South Wales. Mainstays are Garry Gary Beers on bass guitar, Andrew Farriss on guitar/keyboards, Jon Farriss on drums, Tim Farriss on lead guitar and Kirk Pengilly on guitar/sax. For twenty years, they were fronted by Michael Hutchence on lead vocals, whose "sultry good looks" and magnetic stage presence made him the focal point of the band.
Hutchence died in 1997 and INXS did not perform publicly for a year.
INXS has won six Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) awards including three for 'Best Group' in 1987, 1989 and 1992, and was inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame in 2001. To date INXS have sold more than 30 million records.
History
Early years
The origins of the band began with Andrew Farriss convincing his fellow Davidson High School classmate, Michael Hutchence, to join his band, Doctor Dolphin. The band contained two other classmates, Kent Kerny and Neil Sanders and a bass player, Garry Beers and Geoff Kennely, from a nearby high school, Forest High School.). Together with younger brother Jon Farriss they formed the Farriss Brothers, who consisted of Garry Beers on bass guitar, Andrew Farriss on keyboards, Jon Farriss on drums, Tim Farriss on lead guitar, Geoff Kennelly on Drums, Michael Hutchence on lead vocals and Kirk Pengilly on guitar and saxophone. The band made their debut on 16 August 1977 at Whale Beach, 40 km (25 mi) north of Sydney. Andrew Farriss remembers:
The parents of the Farriss boys relocated to Perth, Western Australia in 1978, taking Jon to continue his schooling and, as soon as Hutchence and Andrew finished school, the rest of the band followed. on the Central Coast of New South Wales and by the end of 1979, after passing on the Christian band image, they hired Chris Murphy as their manager and continued taking on the Oz pub circuit.
Murphy was an adept business manager and negotiator. By early 1980 the band had signed a five-album record deal with a Sydney independent label, Deluxe Records, run by Michael Browning, a former manager of AC/DC. The single had its debut TV performance on Simon Townsend's Wonder World. it was a Top 20 hit in Canada, It was during this time that Grant, their co-manager, relocated permanently to New York to ensure a continual presence in the northern hemisphere. The band then travelled to the UK to begin sessions on their fourth album with Nick Launay at the Manor Studios in Oxford.
The album The Swing released in April 1984, During 1984 it was #1 in Australia (for two weeks in January) #31 in the Netherlands and #58 in the U.S. and INXS didn't have any Top 50 chart success until the 1985 album Listen Like Thieves.
During 1984, INXS toured non-stop performing across Europe, the UK, the US and Australia and by December 1984, The Swing, was double platinum, making it, at the time, one of the five biggest domestic albums in the history of Australian music. Two INXS songs, "What You Need" and "Don't Change", were also in the BBC broadcast and are contained on Live Aid's four DVD boxed set released in 2004.
INXS had started out as a New Wave act, gradually moved in a more straight-ahead rock-oriented direction through the first half of the 1980s. Listen Like Thieves was released in October 1985, reaching #3 on the Australian charts and #11 on the US charts. With the release of Listen Like Thieves, the band had developed a rock sound influenced by Led Zeppelin and XTC, but remained true to the band's original roots in Aussie pubs. It was also the first album to feature songs written by a combination of band members, with Andrew Farris and Hutchence becoming the primary songwriters in the years to follow. an edited version of the concert was played on MTV in the US in 1985 on their Saturday night concert series. In November, December, January, and February INXS toured North America, Europe, and New Zealand. The band then took a two month break, with Andrew Farriss writing and producing "You're Gonna Get Hurt" for Jenny Morris (who had previously been a backing vocalist with the band), and Hutchence featuring in Richard Lowenstein's second feature film Dogs in Space. Lowenstein had previously made the video clip for "Dancing on the Jetty". Whilst a song from the movie, "Rooms for the Memory", written by Ollie Olsen, with vocals by Hutchence charted, the movie was received well by critics but was not a commercial success.
In May 1986, the band returned to the United States and over the next six months performed 32 European shows, including support for Queen at their Live at Wembley '86 concert on July 12, 42 US shows and 12 Australian shows. America's influential Musician magazine calling them "the best live band in the world." "Good Times" was used as the theme song for the Australian Made series of concerts in the summer of 1986–1987. allowing it to peak at #47 in the US on 1 August 1987. It was an upbeat, confident album that yielded four Top 10 US singles, "New Sensation", "Never Tear Us Apart", "Devil Inside" and #1 "Need You Tonight". They toured heavily behind the album throughout 1987 and 1988. The video for the 1987 INXS track "Mediate" (which played after the video for "Need You Tonight") replicated the format of Bob Dylan's video for "Subterranean Homesick Blues", even in its use of apparently deliberate errors. In September 1988 the band swept the MTV Video Music Awards with the video for "Need You Tonight/Mediate" winning in 5 categories.
During 1989, Hutchence collaborated with Ian 'Ollie' Olsen on a side project, Max Q, It followed in the same vein as Kick, and added harmonica to some songs. X scored hits with "Suicide Blonde" and "Disappear" (both Top 10 in the US), Other singles from X were "Bitter Tears" and "By My Side" but they had less chart success. INXS performed at Wembley Stadium on 13 July 1991, during their "Summer XS" tour stop in London to a sold out audience of 74,000 fans.
Welcome to Wherever You Are, produced by Mark Opitz and released in August 1992, #2 in Australia and Switzerland, #9 in Switzerland, Canada (#14), On 6 February 1998, after an autopsy and coronial inquest, New South Wales State Coroner, Derrick Hand, presented his report which ruled that Hutchence's death was a suicide while depressed and under the influence of drugs and alcohol. Despite the official coroner's report, fans and relatives considered his death accidental.
1997 to 2003: transitional years
After Hutchence's death, INXS did not perform publicly for almost a year and then only made a few one-off performances with different guest singers until 2000.During the Rock Star: INXS competition, the contestants were challenged to write the lyrics and melody to music written by Andrew Farriss. Originally this challenge was divided up into two teams. When Fortune did not see eye-to-eye with his team (that included Casey), he decided to venture out on his own and write his own lyrics. At first Fortune's move seemed to have doomed his chances to win the competition (because it was perceived he couldn't work in a team), but it was this move that resulted in his creation of the lyrics to "Pretty Vegas". This song became a favourite of both fans and INXS and played a major role in Fortune being able to win the competition. "Pretty Vegas" was released 4 October 2005 and reached #5 on the iTunes Store ranking of daily most downloaded songs on its first day. It peaked at #9 in Australia, but it would turn out that Fortune would not participate in INXS's next album, and Fortune's songs would later appear on his solo album.
In September 2006, the band and Epic Records parted ways.
INXS toured Australia and New Zealand in March 2007, with Simple Minds and support band Arrested Development. After the cancellation of a 31 August 2007 show in Cleveland, Ohio, INXS placed a statement on their website stating "Due to ongoing medical issues with Garry Beers' hand, the band's doctor has urged the band to not play more than three shows in a row or risk permanent damage to Garry's hand."
2009 to present
The band signed with Petrol Records in December 2008, reuniting them with former manager Chris Murphy. The band was preparing to enter the studio in March 2009 to record a new project without a singer.On 16 February 2009, J. D. Fortune revealed in an interview with Entertainment Tonight Canada that INXS let him go from the band with a shake of the hand at an airport in Hong Kong. Fortune admits to becoming addicted to cocaine during his stint with the band.
On 23 February 2009, Chris Murphy, INXS creative director and global business strategist and former manager, in an interview with The Daily Telegraph, said J. D. was not sacked and, in fact, "the band made it known to him that they had not ruled out seeing a return by Fortune." He also states JD was next on his list to call regarding a major recording contract he was negotiating for the band. In an interview with Confidential on March 1, 2009, Murphy stated "The whole thing has been bizarre - he was basically a contractor and his contract had ended." However, it has been announced that JD Fortune will be touring with INXS as frontman in February 2011.
In an interview with Sun Media published on 6 March 2009, J. D. Fortune clarified his claim that he had been fired at an airport. After returning to Canada from Hong Kong, Fortune believed there were still two more legs of the INXS 2007 tour to complete. When the rest of the tour was cancelled and the band did not return his calls for 10 months, he believed he was out of the band.
On 30 November 2009, Andrew Farriss, Jon Farriss, and Kirk Pengilly performed an acoustic version of Don't Change with the Qantas Choir at the Pride of Australia Awards.
On 8 December 2009, INXS announced they will be embarking on a large scale world tour, commencing with a performance in Vancouver for the 2010 Olympic Winter Games. The band announced on 11 February 2010 that J. D. Fortune would be vocalist for the performance at the 2010 Winter Olympics, but it will be a one-off performance with Fortune, and a vocalist for the subsequent world tour has yet to be announced. The band performed at the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics on 24 February 2010 with guest singers J. D. Fortune and Argentine singer Deborah de Corral.
On April 22, 2010, INXS announced that Fortune would again front the band for a performance on July 10, 2010 at Townsville, QLD, Australia, and then again on July 16, 2010 in Broome, WA, Australia
During a radio interview with Kirk Pengilly and JD Fortune in July 2010 just before the Broome concert, Pengilly confirmed that Fortune has returned as the band's permanent singer.
In August 2010, Petrol Records issued Australian radio stations with a 1 track promo "Never Tear Us Apart" featuring Ben Harper on vocals. This is likely as the first single from the upcoming INXS tribute album to Michael Hutchence featuring other well-known singers from Australia and around the world.
On 25 September 2010, the band performed prior to the 2010 AFL Grand Final.
On 19 October 2010, it was announced in the Courier Mail that "INXS, fronted by JD Fortune, will tour as part of the A Day on the Green winery concerts in February."
The band recorded an album in memory of Michael Hutchence. Brandon Flowers of the band The Killers revealed that he recorded the song "Beautiful Girl" with the band. Rob Thomas from the band Matchbox Twenty recorded the song "Never Tear Us Apart" and "Original Sin" with the band. Australian singer-songwriter Vanessa Amorosi has also been reported to have recorded a version of "Devil Inside". Oddly, Ben Harper has also reportedly recorded a version of "Devil Inside", but a later release on INXS.com had Harper performing Never Tear Us Apart. Gabriella Cilmi, Nikka Costa, Tricky, and Eskimo Joe's Kavyen Temperley have recorded tracks for the project. Deborah de Corral is also slated to perform on the album. The album is being produced by James Ash of Rogue Traders. The album is called Original Sin, with a release date set to November 2010.
Influence and recognition
Throughout the 1980s and into the 1990s, INXS was a major force in Australian popular music, leading the way into worldwide popularity for several Australian bands. The band worked closely with several other Australian artists, such as Models and ex-patriate New Zealander Jenny Morris, helping to establish their careers. By the mid-nineties, however, their popularity had waned, especially in the US, where their Greatest Hits compilation failed to reach the Top 100. At the 1996 BRIT Awards, Michael Hutchence presented Oasis with an award, after which their lead guitarist Noel Gallagher remarked "Has-beens shouldn't be presenting awards to gonna-bes" INXS was inducted into the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) Hall of Fame on 30 October 2001. INXS has won six other ARIA Awards including three for 'Best Group' in 1987, 1989 and 1992.

In 2002 in America, McDonald's and Toyota used "New Sensation" for a promo campaign. "New Sensation" also was featured in the 2003 movie Shattered Glass. It is also currently in a sofa advert in the UK. "What You Need" featured in a Chevy trucks advertising campaign. In Australia, "By My Side" has been used by NRMA Insurance on and off for eight years. "The One Thing" is featured in under the fictional radio station .
