INXS - Listen Like Thieves - Old Grey Whistle Test - 1986

[@therealsoulproduct]

Michael definitely was one of the best Rock frontmen that ever lived. A true gift from down under. But also, let's show some love to Andrew, Tim, Jon, Gary, and Kirk. INXS as a whole had a great chemistry.

Kirk is the secret weapon 👌

The dude was the best performer I’ve ever seen🎉

[@mimilini1]

He was iconic! Michael Hutchence was untouchably great in the 80’s! He made our jaws drop with his spectacular performances! And you’re absolutely right! We must give a big credit to the other band members! ❤❤❤❤❤

[@marushkaSR]

Dangerous, very dangerous...it's impossible not to love this man, I think.

[@elizabethhann4028]

I agree with you. He was a true star; so beautiful and wild. And he wrote great pop songs too."Everybody's/Down on their knees!/Listen like thieves!..." I've always thought those were great lines.

[@inxs52]

@@elizabethhann4028 don't forget Andrew Farriss who writes the music, Michael ads the lyrics...

guy was Morrison ...mixed with Jagger...but then brought his own talents ....guy was and still unmatched as a front man.....saw them Live 3 times...just flawless as a band...better than the LP’s....

Michal was Unique with "je ne sais quoi"...❤

[@wavelengthrecords-1]

This is a truly great LIVE performance! Totally LIVE. No backing tracks. Just a talented band kicking ass. Michael could sing for real. Magnetic presence with animal sexuality.

[@ericschenher5526]

butternutcrunch Mark of a great band, you can't tell if it's totally live or backing tracks, at first listen, it sounded like it was just Michaels vocal that was live. But no, INXS is just that great.

Yes, he had IT. I saw them several times in Philly and they were excellent.

What separates INXS from other rock bands is the lyrics. They are so much better than other rock bands.

[@Michael-zh8yl]

And the way they sounded on stage. Inxs sounded unbelievable on stage. Wasn't just the lyrics.

[@amess3631]

Fuck yeah! "You are all you need...And that is everything......So don't hesitate...There's no time to waste..Just do it for yourself" Such resonating lyrics

[@gtamediaproductions1]

When you have the perfect mix of musicians and a perfect voice to top it all off, every thing you produce is gold. Thank you for giving us INXS.

[@Scone1976]

What a charismatic performer! Can't believe that he passed away ages ago. Such an accented but natural voice. I surely miss hin!!

Hell of a band, hell of frontman! Few come this close.

[@chrisf8855]

INXS was truly one of the world's great bands. I still love them a lot.

[@highbury1972]

For me, I always equally focused on each member of INXS as every single member was superb. I found it really hard to listen to them after Hutch passed away, but recently i watched their Wembley 91 gig on ARTE France and suddenly I felt like that 15 year old lad again in 1987. Thank You INXS and In Loving Memory of Michael. ✝️❤️

[@markh1011]

This still sounds amazing today.

[@markacton1003]

I listened to this song over and over again on my headset in Afghanistan . Couldn't get enough of Michael Hutchence and Inxs.

Dude no way! Guess what I'm doing right now, haha! Coincidence. INXS has been getting me through my time here.

have u seen this song with paula yates interview at the end. i think he sounds better in that video. the guy had a voice like no other

[@LearnToFly182]

This legit sounds like it could be a fresh new single and Michael - as always with his look- is timeless. This bloke was absolutely light years ahead of this Earth, what a performer and a superb tight band. Brilliant. Possibly most underrated rock band of that era.

[@Luvthesky]

NOT underrated

[@jijimcc518]

It had been out for at least a year by the time of this performance. They always kept their music and performances fresh.

[@willkirkoff1333]

Michael's voice is so silky smooth and perfect! He truly was the greatest frontman to ever grace the stage.

[@cathsalazar9930]

He never got the pros for his voice!! Even Bono said the same thing. He is really missed.

[@ferolcat2009]

When his daughter was little and she was in a supermarket with Geldof after he had adopted her. INXS came on the music system and she remarked, that was her daddy and told Geldof, he was a better singer than you.. She knew.. :)

To nail these lyrics “LIVE”,along with the guys playing this is probably the best song as close as to a recording I’ve ever heard!!! Love watching the Wembley live often😎

[@texasgirl3706]

This is the Michael and Inxs that I fell for ...hard. I was young and so were they. This was a great time in music and fashion.

[@erinhand]

I was there too and I'm going to have to disagree with you on the fashion part. This gives me chills like peaking into the past of a legend and seeing how brilliant they are before they make it big. This one was so perfect, its obvious here you're looking and someone special with a massive talent. He didnt get amazing after singing pro for a while, he started out amazing and it's shocking looking back, to hear that coming out his mouth so brilliantly and especially at that young of an age. Some take years to find their style or sound. He's gifted for sure.

[@jamiefoyers2800]

One of the best "threesomes" in music, the first 3 tracks of the "Listen Like Thieves" cd..What you Need, Thieves and Kiss The Dirt...cannae beat it!.Played the crap out of this album then and forever more!. Hutch was a great performer, I miss the band and still remember that time fondly at the SECC when he was in a limo and everyone just stopped and stared at him. He looked pretty shy at that reaction, everyone was like.."What?!..but it's..." and food was falling out of people's mouths seeing him and jaws dropped to the floor...not many people can produce that reaction and Hutch was truly one of the greats!.

[@douglasmcintosh6753]

Jealous only got to see hutch once in '97 at the barras, something else still remember him saying "hey yous need to cool down have some ice" and slaps ice in each our hands, was just something else what a man.
