MAX Q - Concrete

[@germansaez]

A treasure of song for the few in the world we know it exists.

[@andrewthomson91]

Would be great if this song and the album were on spotify.

[@lady_lavender]

I heard this song for the first time today, while watching Mystify: Michael Hutchence documentary. Fell in love with this song.

[@buk3091]

Diana Arroyo dude! Same! What a tragic story, but every song is encapsulates his pain or happiness so well. I’ll never listen to inxs the same again😞

[@probi73]

likewise

[@karencha8]

Diana Arroyo it happened to me too!

[@KiruDeutschland]

Me too.... Wonderful song

[@debradeane6151]

Same here, took some time to find the song. I Still miss him, What a talented man.

[@catnap1964]

Damn. I just hear Michael's heart in this.

[@joelbondurant1582]

Maybe the most overlooked album of all time.

[@olivierlauwers2865]

Indeed!

[@aus80srockradio94]

Yes probably true. This is a great song also : )

[@jasonelsworth1473]

100% Way of the World probably the most lyrically underrated songs ever , bought this in 1990 gotta say probably listen to it every 3 months superb album

[@cindysmith-stein1872]

Yes indeed! I just found this and bought it. Very happy I got it 🙂

Brilliant song, brilliant man. We wish you were here Michael 💕

[@Rhythmattica]

Give Ollie credit.... Cmon

[@3950laura]

@@Rhythmattica I definitely do!!

[@davidkearnes9623]

I lived in Australia when this album came out. Just beautiful beginning to end. Top 10 favorite albums of all time. Very few artists that had this kind of sound. I love dropping this album on my American friends who never heard it. Blows their mind every time.

[@simplicity996]

He was a genius 🎶♥️

[@Rhythmattica]

So is Ollie

[@Toni-zo8xz]

I love this song. How could this album not get the recognition it so greatly deserved???

[@EmersonRose100]

It was ahead of it’s time.

[@thomasinajones6684]

This has always been one of my favorite songs of all time. Michael's voice is almost overwhelming to the senses. I get chills everytime I play this...it's perfection.

[@fezgirlygirl9160]

I cry everytime I heard it..its overwhelming to me

[@priguerra14]

I love that Voice😍

[@MICHELLE-gu2qc]

22 years since Michael has been gone. He was anazing solo or with Max Q. Its pretty sad that his daughter never got to know her father or see him working live... RIP Michael

[@chatsworthosbornejr6475]

Great song I wish they would upload this whole album to Spotify...

[@mluisatur5582]

Precioso tema, preciosa voz, precioso ser humano, ganaba en todo con los años y se fue tan pronto, inolvidable Michael Hutchence 💖😍

[@EssBee60]

It's tragic how unknown Max Q is if the number of views is an indication. It's Michaels best work.

[@0xBlez]

Hi

[@smittylite02]

this is one of his best songs period!!!

[@michaelCR]

A true masterpiece!

[@jrrcorcloudsaremine]

Thanks to Ollie and Michael... I miss you 😘 my angel 👼🏼

[@smittylite02]

One of the most incredibly underrated albums of all time. Still have the cassette and it always gets played in the old deck in my Explorer.

[@MyLoveMylifeK]

Killer lyrics, so so relevant to today's world.

[@paisleycloudsaremineplaysa6003]

When I spoke to Ollie about this song, I just had to know who wrote the lyrics. Turns out, Ollie wrote the lyrics and I simply love how Michael delivers Ollie's words... 💕

[@MKH22]

This is my favourite on the album. An absolutely brilliant but unfortunately very underrated album. Michael at his best.

[@jrrcorcloudsaremine]

He had other great moments... I promise you!!!

[@kippenvrouwtje]

I lost my old tape of Max Q (yes.... tape....) . So nice to hear this music again!

[@davidthomson7847]

Masterpiece.

[@gdfswonder636]

Everyone that's ever been in my car has heard this song at least once

[@tomasfrank2434]

Great song, great music .. Michael forever❤

[@shaneyule2749]

Such perfection... love you Michael

[@Rhythmattica]

Thanks to also Ollie

[@myles009]

Love this song, still sounds fresh today, 1989 played this over and over, whilst Inxs were on sabbatical. 15 years old listening to Max Q whilst my mates were listening to Bobby Brown.

[@markjames4644]

That was their prerogative

[@michaelholland8252]

Great Max Q song, miss u hutch

[@MiHutch]

Perfect song by the perfect musician... Hutchence is incomparable, genius and he knows the pain, it is the same that some of deal with everyday. Love you and miss you dear, RIP.

[@daners-o3w]

Great album! Completely overlooked.

[@craigthornton-fletcher5017]

my favourite record of all time. i felt his pain. i still feel it today..... echoes of a great lead man in this song. somehow his pain reminds me of just how precious life is

[@vladocifra]

I'm sitting in a bar Staring that the universe that's in my drink The motion of my straw Is stirring anti-clockwise in the glass I recall the moments, well And I raise my glass to you You held me in your arms And saved me from despair And as I'm older and more stupid The years have etched stupidity into my skull I condemn my foolishness And I raise my glass to you Yeah, the world is packed with murderers and madmen They promise us a slow, slow death Those who torture with a smile I don't like their idea of business at all And in this drink I see my momentary freedom But I know the smell of my own prison Yes, I know it well I know the smell of me (Fascination won't change my mind) I hear those telephones ringing Everybody wants out Ring, all those sleepless nights And those wailing phones won't set things right Such a state of disorder Go one way, two ways, four Anyway, our feet are still cramped Oh, sure it's a concrete idea You can say what you want Fascination won't change my mind

[@ingenide]

thanks

[@Toni-zo8xz]

Thanks for posting the lyrics.

[@athinapalia9780]

Thank you for the lyrics!!!! Such a sad but so wonderful song!!!

[@jacquelinevandermeer]

Thank you ❤

[@djinniboo]

I will never NOT love this record...I don't care how much sh*t my hubby ever gave me about it (I have known him since dinosaurs roamed the earth). Max Q was awesome, and this was one of the best songs on the album. 2:38 and onwards is pure bliss to me.

[@simonburns1055]

A unique snapshot of the music in Oz at that time

[@walters73]

always in my heart Michael

[@SuperScratchproof]

All things said and done.....Max Q is on point. Sooooo much more than INXS. Fascination won't change my mind. imo.

[@MiHutch]

Yeah the world is packed with murderers and mad men... you can say what you want, fascination wont change my mind!!! Perfect lyrics, perfectly sung by the perfect musician... Hutchence is incomparable, a genius, and he knows the pain... it is the same that some of us deal with everyday of our life. Love you and miss you dear Hutch, RIP.

[@0xBlez]

Hi

[@elleericson2056]

I'm going to have to take a real listen to this album

[@FigmentSALabel]

I bought this album at the time and I wasn't big on INXS. I was taken by Way Of The World and sought out the album.

[@Nunya874]

What an awesome track......Great album Hutch's best work as well as his solo album

[@Bad888Max]

Damn just watched Michael documentary im about to cry.. also the book is here to read, right by my side..

I 've been trying to remember this band for about 5 months now, and what it took to jog my memory was this: I bought a vacuum from Home Depot called a Buckethead. LOVE THIS . The best Inxs record! (laff)

Tim Walters I’m pretty sure not as much as the women he touched, like myself!

[@Menace39]

hutchences solo work was always so much better than INXS . alot darker and edgier

[@jrrcorcloudsaremine]

pjmarlo Well, it’s Ollie & Michael...., but I agree! Ollie writes beautifully and they compliment each other!!!

[@jrrcorcloudsaremine]

Qwerty123 have you all listened to Michael’s solo album? I think you’d like it... I really love his singles, like “The Passenger”, cover of Iggy Pop’s... or “Under my Thumb” cover of The Rolling Stones? Most of the Max Q project was very much Ollie, we’ve talked about it in great detail... It’s so hard to not enjoy all of Michael’s work... even his work with Flame Fortune.... He’s the only good thing on there... I’ll try to find that link..., but I have to tell you MaxQ was his funkiest stuff... I was curious, because when I talked to Michael the last thing on my mind was asking him these questions .... this version has Michael on it, without him it’s horrible kzbin.info/www/bejne/roKTamyoh5p3q9k

[@FigmentSALabel]

@Qwerty123 Definitely.

[@nickgodfrey1148]

Gotta be this and Monday Night By Satellite for me. Great album. Bought it in tape format when it came out and my Sony Walkman knew it well….

[@Noahide]

King's X are called the most underrated band of all time.

[@FigmentSALabel]

[@ferguille]

Les mando un temazo de Michel Hutchence en MAX Q

[@mranderson6748]

Rip ollie

[@TinMar78GR]

This album is great,very progresive for its time and still original until this day...He would be alive today if he had followed a solo career...He was such a talented man...I believe that he could sing anything.He wanted to leave INXS after Kick. The X album was pretty good though,but after, INXS started to decline.The rest of the band members seemed not to synchronize with the music tendencies.

[@janebraun4482]

This song along with the(solo) tracks he was working on when he died, just prove his talent was without limits and astounding. Hearing it was like who, what, when? I simply could not believe this vocal was the same guy singing those well known hits of Kick. When a song instantly grabs your attention like this, when you can't recognize the sound, you are dealing with greatness of talent. Thus this song and that track Bono finished for MH shocked me, not knowing he had so much more in him and thus I was even more saddened by loss of him. Whether he lived or not, his solo work had serious depth, plus it is okay to do solo work apart from a band at any time too he should have put this in his name. The sound to me is very 80s somehow for the studio effects, lyrics, etc, but yes a masterpiece for sure..

[@Rhythmattica]

Nope.Ollie Olsen was also MAX Q... After doing music on dogs in space... well... you work it out...

[@ephemerons]

Love Max Q and this track especially. Shameful that he was discouraged to pursue his creative muse instead of being the cash cow for an increasingly safe and irrelevant once-great band. The fact that Max Q didn’t make it into CM Murphy’s ‘Mystify’ soundtrack (or whatever he called it at the time), speaks volumes. Anyway that’s another story. What I want to know is where can I find the slightly different, less cluttered version of this from the Mystify doco? It’s beautiful.

[@juliangranillo8614]

Puedes decir lo que quieras La fascinación no cambiará mi opinión

[@donna25871]

I think Max Q is more Michael than INXS.

[@nancygatto4963]

He didn't write Max Q music. Ollie Olsen did

[@janebraun4482]

Right, the feel he delivers to these lyrics, Ollie could never do, just amazing!

[@Rhythmattica]

@@janebraun4482 Ummm... Ollie gave him the medium to do so... What is it with "Lead Singer Syndrome"? I dig MH also... But to say it wouldve happened without ollie, well, its ridiculous reasoning...

The logical third single
