Reacting to INXS - Never Tear Us Apart

[@catsarai-genxrewind5271]

I wonder what could have been. Which other artist left us too soon?

[@kenburke3045]

Honestly, too many to name

[@Sputryk]

Dennis Wilson [Beach Boys] Was the first to release any solo material - Pacific Ocean Blue - and drowned in '83. His second album, Bambu, was released only as a surprise bonus to the special edition of POB, and this track a terrific bonus track on that bonus album. Truly beautiful piece of work. kzbin.info/www/bejne/g3qWkHlugdFjgsk

[@shanesmith2853]

Far too many.

[@Sputryk]

Frank Zappa. What can be said that hasn't already? One of music's most legendary and talented artists. As far as I am concerned, he is/was the only challenger to Brian Wilson's crown; absolutely no-one else comes close. Frank was probably the more talented, but wasn't as consistent with his work as Brian. Was not afraid to experiment - before he passed he recorded [album Dance Me This] with a Russian troupe of throat singers touring the USA, so very long before The Hu of Mongolia ever brought such sound to the world's attention. The very biggest loss music will ever endure - what extraordinary soundscapes did he take with him? This is one of his most commercial works: kzbin.info/www/bejne/h4SqnWiNpZd5jZY

[@alphaomega7191]

I dont want to sound callous but lots have died from drugs or stupid things like Michael - that's always sad but often their own fault. The ones I think are more tragic are people like Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, Jeff Buckley etc who were taken through accidents.

[@LauPulstar]

The hair on Michael Hutchence, what a beautiful man, in all of the ways, such talent

[@mitchsteele2927]

This guy is a diamond, watched him perform this song live at Wembley 91 and Brixton academy 94, what an incredible performer and an awesome band, I’m so lucky to have seen and listened to Inxs , I’ll continue to listen to your music, Mitch 💙

[@oscillatewildly6553]

Wow Brixton academy must have been amazing, I lived around the corner and saw a few bands there great venue!

[@oscillatewildly6553]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/ioTJk4mae8-Gd7c This just showed up on my KZbin feed! The Loved One Brixton academy 94

[@mitchsteele2927]

What an awesome night, I was very lucky to get these tickets that night, heard on radio one that evening on the way home from work there was a few tickets remaining, awesome night I will never forget, INXS will always be one of the greatest rock bands that every walked this planet, I thank you 👍 Mitch

[@dauchande]

Got hugged by Michael Hutchance on stage as part of the lighting crew, met him back stage, such nice guys, got my INXS cd signed, one of my favorite all time favorite bands, esp the Shabooh Shoobah album.

[@kadathsmith]

Music that spoke to the soul. The line, "If I hurt you, I'll make wine from your tears" is just xxx.

[@adamfanalways]

INXS, was one of the talented bands, real musicians and Micheal Hutchence was a incredible frontman a legend! Some people have it IT factor and Micheal had it in spades ♠️ RIP

[@paul5589]

These guys were a breathe of fresh air when they first came out.

[@giancarlocavallotti6358]

Prague, The Czech Republic during autumn/winter.

[@dimitri00769]

I remember standing across the road from the Cathedral at his funeral thinking that this will be history.

[@geraldselvey7687]

Saw them live outdoor concert in Mandurah West Australia in ‘92 I think (or 93?) best concert I ever went to

[@simonalexander2354]

I'm late to the party but INXS what a fantastic band!! Someone's probably answered this already but the video was shot in Prague!!

[@hughsnow830]

INXS was on top of the world in 1988 with their Kick album. Michael Hutchence was the total package: looks, voice & stage presence. I don't mean to sound cruel, but INXS was largely fading away at the time of his death. So even if Michael had lived, I doubt the band would have had much success going forward. In addition to Kick, I recommend their album Listen Like Thieves as it has a lot of great songs on it too.

[@adieselwonk]

Some of the greatest lyrics ever written in that song ❤️

[@t1000eg]

Brilliant song my favourite INXS tune

[@jonathanmartin3767]

This song started playing at work, musak radio station. Forgot how good this song was. The Kick album was one hit after another.

[@shanegarvie4615]

Grew up in this era when I was teenager. The Aussie bands back then. acdc , mental as anything ,cold chisel hudu gurus inxs. The flowers who changed their name to ice house. And the divinals

[@bowlingaly5059]

I love this song. The synth is so hauntingly beautiful. I miss INXS. And the pause at 2:02 is one of the most suspenseful moments in any INXS track.

[@JT26blue]

They filmed this in Prague. I always loved this song and yes, you are absolutely correct. His was a great loss.

[@angelicaalves9641]

Inxs 💖

[@SiM197sIx]

respect to Aussie band INXS… they had so many great tracks… saw them live in my hometown in Adelaide, South Australia in 87… RIP Michael 🙏🏻

[@soulaphyrillas8320]

You need to listen to more of INXS music. They were the IT Band in the late 80s and early 90s. In order of time starting with the earliest are as follows: STAY YOUNG, TO LOOK AT YOU, BURN FOR YOU, THE ONE THING, LISTEN LIKE THIEVES, KISS THE DIRT, WHAT YOU NEED, DEVIL INSIDE, NEW SENSATION, MYSTIFY, NEED YOU TONIGHT, THE JULY 1991 WEMBLEY LIVE CONCERT, SUICIDE BLONDE, THE STAIRS, BEAUTIFUL GIRL. I will get back with some more.

[@Phantombugle66]

My goodness, you hit it right on the head. This song was the start of my first ever REAL love.

[@catsarai-genxrewind5271]

Awww

[@corrinnehale1904]

Powerful voice , beautiful guy and such a loss. 🙏

[@charlesswitzer8378]

Love this song. It still tears me up about Michael Hutchence.

[@noelroberts8199]

The video was recorded in Prague in 1987-88, just before the wall came down in Berlin. Michael was a perfect frontman for a band, and INXS was an iconic Aussie band. What a great song......

[@davidellis5141]

Just watched the film about INXS , good movie , great song !

[@debbieanderson1220]

This video was filmed in Prague, Czechoslovakia. Beautiful song.

[@prosenjitbanerjee7490]

Just superb song

[@yolandabrooksqueenofsevens]

Love this song I still have all my 45’s and the Kick album ♥️Michael was beautiful RIP

[@Mjak-yd3og]

I remember that all the girls in my school loved Michael Hutchence and I was very jealous of him.

[@mathewkeipert6021]

Yep. Great Aussie band. Proud to be an Aussie and Port Adelaide supporter. This is our theme song.

[@kelltic100]

I have always believed that some people are here for a moment in time, but in that moment, they have touched so many lives. So perhaps for Michael, he was only here for that moment, and he did indeed touch the hearts of many. For me, at least, the 60's, 70's and 80's where the greatest time for music. After the 80's the music died for me. I couldn't tell you what is popular today, as the little I have heard, well...... I had to look for music that was music, not auto tune or a group of grown men wearing grotesque masks and screaming unintelligible words . I found it in the likes of Beth Hart, Gov't Mule, Shinedown, to name a few. So seeing legends like INXS still being appreciated, brings a smile to an old classic rocker gal. Thanks for the trip down a beautiful lane of memories. Try some Grand Funk Railroad, which I grew up listening to, and still do to this day. Wish I could transport myself back to those times and stay there....

[@frankschlanker]

Filmed in Prague Czech Rep. At the end they are walking into Wenceslas Square, also filmed in Prague were the videos for New Sensation and Guns In The Sky! A beautiful city indeed!!

[@billdemotte7152]

"I told you That we could fly 'Cause we all have wings But some of us don't know why" Glad you are back reacting My fav

[@catsarai-genxrewind5271]

Outstanding lyrics! 🎶

[@DamonBowles]

Really feeling this song. Huge classic. Thank you!

[@lllCCCPlll]

WoW!!! your reaction is very heartfelt and with a lot of love for this track... especially for the eternal ✨Michael Hutchence✨....

[@MIke5491189]

Hi Cat, I just stumbled across your KZbin channel. I've watched a dozen so far, lol. So, fun! Keep them coming! Thanks for reliving all of these awesome songs and videos from the 80s. So, many memories come seeing all them. I loved INXS it was like "my" band. I saw them in concert twice once in Salt Lake City and then the last time in the early 90s. Michael Hutchense was mister suave and with the Farriss brothers they seemed like a tight group.

[@catsarai-genxrewind5271]

Welcome!!

[@rmw250]

Simple song. but great song✌

[@feferosette]

Love INXS. Michael was so handsome. This is one of my favorites by them. Can you react to The Fixx "Saved By Zero" I love The Fixx. Oh and please react to Naked Eyes "Promises, Promises" I love that song.

[@danknighton3286]

I love INXS, New Sensation is also a great song from the same album

[@dauchande]

Technically the best song they've ever done IMHO, but not by much, *everything* they did was excellent.

[@gaynorkerr820]

My favourite INXS track. Thank you Cat🌸🌟🌸

[@chopperdeath]

We lived in the greatest time in human history. The space between old and new tech. Before music had run out of ideas and when people had the ability to be genuine without being shaped or censored. We still interacted with each other and weren't poisoned by social media.

[@MF-hs6fx]

Recorded in France, more INXS reviews please 🙏

[@adieselwonk]

It was shot in Prague , so was the videos for New Sensation and Guns in the sky !👍

[@CraigSmithofhooveral]

You are so sweet and kind . Thank you !!

[@neil5214]

The video was recorded in Prague. The producer made Kirk replay the sax solo over 50 times in the studio, until Kirk became angry, that's what he wanted to hear, raw emotion

[@andykenny5674]

Hi Cat, I remember them saying that they had wanted to film in Vienna, but ended up doing it in Prague. These European places are so atmospheric aren’t they?

[@nickblack4661]

Thank you Cat for one of the best songs of a generation

[@joelhungerford8388]

These guys grew up not far from where I live.

[@666theninja]

We have Wings, But some of us Don't know Whyyyyyyyyyyyyy. Classic Aussie Song.

[@kenburke3045]

Filmed in Prague!

[@itscrazyal]

thank you, i was going to ask if anyone knew what city it was

[@nickmoore6727]

2 Aussie songs that are well worth a listen from 80's... Go Betweens - Streets of Your Town and The Triffids- Wide Open Road. Like Great Southern land by Icehouse are real Aussie style and atmosphere songs..

[@shane7073]

The 80s / 90s version of Jim Morrison of the doors the looks the style not to mention the sins

[@billdemotte7152]

Oh how many dances over the years to this song Video was filmed in Prague

[@seanwoody2257]

Some left us more, some less but we never forget them

[@mauriciomilla3020]

excelente canción de una gran década...SALUDOS desde CHILE y que tenga un buen 2021,!!!!!!!!!🤔🤔🎉🎉😁😁

[@patcurrie9888]

Wanna blow your mind? INXS' Taste It video was banned from MTV in 1993/1994 (no one else has reacted/reviewed it yet) Love the big insert on your vlogs

[@TimothySmiths]

The kick album in one of my favorites from top to bottom.

[@dauchande]

It is, but Shabooh Shoobah and Listen Like Thieves I think are better

[@bettaricksaberhagen]

Inxs forever

[@paulashanks3129]

57 year old here, loving it ❤️ 😊

[@brandonrimes7712]

Love this song by michael and INXS🌹

[@itscrazyal]

This one was right up there with the best "make out" songs. Just find the right area to park, and put this on, and let Michael Hutchence do the rest LOL. He was another one on the too soon list (like Ian Curtis of Joy Division)

[@kenburke3045]

Awesome song!! INXS is a great band!!

[@midnajanedoe]

bittersweet...the cemetary view with the saxophone says it all.. oh by te way it was filmed in Prague.

[@gsadventures678]

I love you so much Cat! I wish you would do more videos!

[@Paris.mcdonough]

It was filmed in Prague, same as new sensation

[@philhartley678]

My favourite radio station in Brisbane Australia had listeners vote for Australia's greatest band, it was Inxs, AC/DC came 3rd. Queen won the rest of the world.

[@catsarai-genxrewind5271]

Wow!

[@PjRjHj]

Where did Brisbane giants The Go-Betweens and The Saints fit in the pecking order?

[@bobkennedy5585]

Prague. Beautiful was there last summer!

[@bradleyhutchinson2055]

GO THE CROWS!!

[@PjRjHj]

hehehe "Never tear up our tarps"

[@josebernardoafonsoperez2547]

Es espectacular. Magnifico. Que buen tema.

[@zindi1138]

A staple of 80s for me is shriekback song actung....

[@joearrigoni6426]

It was always my plan to get married and play this at my wedding, but i never got there, lol.

[@glastonbury4304]

Looks definitely like Prague , great place for Stag nights 🤣🤣, well before Covid it was 😉

[@PjRjHj]

I bet the locals love that 🙄😜

[@glastonbury4304]

@@PjRjHj not many locals in the centre of Prague but plenty of bars, clubs and hotels and the ones that are love the buzz...much like Amsterdam or central London or any city centre really 🤷😃

[@goldboy150]

Kirk Pengilly is a boss. Plus he’s from melbourne...so, you know, brothers. RIP Michael.

[@broadband01]

this a great song cat great pick cat

[@markdavidson9100]

New sensation and guns in the sky video also filmed in Prague

[@venturefar2851]

They are an Australian group but the video was filmed in Prague, Czech Republic in 1988.

[@geoffreyburdon5191]

did you notice all band members were in the video

[@denisbryce8746]

This was filmed in The Czech republic, in Prague.

[@hahatoldyouso]

They and Depeche Mode are my top 2 favourite!

[@catsarai-genxrewind5271]

Yes!!!!

[@stopbunsen]

Michael was actually set on doing more acting, something I think he would have been good at. He had the temperament to do it

[@rubenreyes3327]

Hello Cat..UR STILL D GROOVIEST CHICK REACTER OUT THERE! Thanks for ur input.🇨🇱⚘

[@haroldlipschitz9301]

INXS were incredible and had a sound all their own. I remember the girls in my class being absolutely nuts for Michael...but it was just based on appearance and atmosphere. Unfortunately the real Michael was a pretty hard dude to be around with his sex and drug addictions.

[@juancarlosgarciagomez2647]

👌

[@edwardpiously140]

Mind if I react to your question abou what he could've brought had he not died? I genuinely believe it was kinda over, not that he wasn't good enough or anything anymore, but after the taxi driver incident Michael struggled with keeping an severe brain damage secret. You, at least I think to, notice a darker mood in his lyrics songs he has written after the incident. And it was his free spirited and boyish character that enabled him to write these great songs. Again, this is how I feel and think about it, I could be wrong, probably am and nobody has to agree with me, but just wanted to comment my opinion.

[@xanajak]

Grabs you by the cojones and never lets go.

[@MF-hs6fx]

It was recorded in France in winter, God bless Michael

[@Lisammifsud]

I rang my mama in Australia from the bridge where this was filmed in Prague...

[@catsarai-genxrewind5271]

Amazing!!

[@k.t.5405]

Prague was "the" party city in 89-90...right on the cutting edge of glasnost.

[@wadesnider5218]

Was filmed in Prague

At around 37sec i could tell that you had just watched the clip and were still a bit raw. Phew. I know, right?

It was winter 1988/9 - just before the Velvet revolution - they rented the Minucipal House (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Municipal_House) for a week and made there 3 videos - Never tear us apart, new sensation (on the balcony of the house) kzbin.info/www/bejne/l6vJeGh-YtV2jMk and Guns in the sky (in coridors) kzbin.info/www/bejne/fHPNlpJplreXnck
