Rockstar INXS Full Episode 24 Elimination

[@peggyjenkinson4514]

I believe Ty is probably a bigger success without INXS. He travels the world; sings with top stars, he came into his own...Vintage Trouble. He is an inspiration.

[@crimsonking8746]

Never heard of it...

[@DigitalMediaPatriots]

Yes, Ty is great in his own way. He is a soul star original!!!!!

[@Juncti]

Thanks for posting all of these. Loved this show back when it aired. Went through Katrina which was mentioned on this episode, so I didn't ever get to see this week or the next few weeks as I was dealing with the aftermath. Looking forward to seeing what happened in those missing weeks, although I did see the finale so I know how it all panned out. Thanks again

[@tezzhaC]

although i love Mig...but Marty capture me with his humble attitude and the way he deliver every songs he sang...back many years ago.

[@W81Researcher]

Marty's performance of Wish You Were Here was what had me hooked on him and wanting him to win after Jordis left. But I must say, looking at this from the beginning, I caught Jordis at the right time when she sang Layla. Marty was amazing from the get go. Absolutely phenomenal. He and Dilana were both in very similar circumstances, runner-ups, encore for Lithium, singing for LA Guns, etc. I would have been a Marty fan looking back now.

[@alaizabelcray9744]

Mig is the only contestant who didn't sing any new songs in this episode

[@daz_gibowski348]

For all the JD haters......!! It was not a personality competition.!! Grab yourselves a box of tissues and enjoy the rest of the show..!!

[@paulcarr5918]

@James H They wouldn't have needed the show if Michael was around, now would they have? The band was looking for a replacement, not a new direction, and JD was the only one who recognized that. They didn't wan't to become theatrical, they didn't want to become The Killers, they wanted to remain INXS and they focused on the guy that showed he might make that happen. He wrote the song that sounded most INXS like with Pretty Vegas which ended up being their last hit, and if you listen to the album (which they were already laying down before they picked a singer) there were song like Devil's Party on which he sounded like a Hutchence clone. The fact that 15 years later people still don't get that is exactly what they were looking for, not the nicest person or even the "best" singer, is pretty pathetic

Hey, not a problem. I loved this show too, but because I'm in the UK I don't know anyone else who has seen it, haha. I'm sorry to hear about that. I can't believe how long ago that was now. I hope you enjoy the rest of the show :)

[@SXI96]

I'm a huge Ty fan, but he was not right for INXS, he sounded ridiculous singing The One Thing imo, Thank God he created Vintage Trouble, the man truly rocks in that band!! Their Letterman performance is mind blowing

[@bigsosa426]

SXI96 it wasn’t good 🤦🏽‍♀️

[@paulcarr5918]

Exactly. It's so odd how many people still don't understand that 15 years later.

[@helixmoore7636]

He sounded fly

[@helixmoore7636]

​@bigsosa426 Huh? I know I'm late but did we listen to the same flipping singer. He rocked it. He was amazing

[@helixmoore7636]

Ty. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@dinozzo97]

Ive got three words for you….. Marty Fucking Casey!!! Notice how the audience chanted his name when Dave asked Suzie who should be the opening encore before her. The audience obviously loved him the most out of everyone. I alway loved Marty for 16yrs ive adored him.

[@m00k1e1]

One thing that always bothered me about this show, was the incorrect interpretation of its goal that most people had, including the contestants. It wasn't a popularity contest. It wasn't a competition to find the best singer. It was an audition to be the singer for a specific band, with a specific style, and a specific sound. Many bands audition new members and turn away people who are technically better musicians/singers, but don't truly fit the sound or vibe. This show started off with 15 amazingly talented singers, and 14 of them left because they weren't a good fit for that band. To imply there was any other reason is to be a poor sport.

[@misstimountaincop95b]

I watched this when it first came out, and I was in my twenties. I thought JD was a crybaby who was CLEARLY an "addict", which future years proved to be true. He probably lived out of his car because his family couldnt tolerate his manipulating crybaby fit throwing addict self, and gave him some tough love. Marty Casey should have won this competition. He is focused, knew what was, and is, current, put extra time into learning INXS' new song, was prepared for each thing thrown at him by the band, had a clear head, and INXS would be just as big as they were in the 80-90s if they would have taken JD to an addiction clinic to get the help he clearly needed, and hired Marty to take them into the future. Its sad to see them fall so far because "change" wasnt something they were or are ready to do. So sad, because they were such a great band, and Marty is killing it on the music circuit with his own band now.

[@yasminhussain7042]

NO 👎, JD WAS THE RIGHT PERSON TO WIN THIS COMPETITION, HE HAS TALENT AND LOOKS GREAT AND HAS A MICHEAL HUTCHENCE VIBE

[@alaizabelcray9744]

This show came out when I was 12 and I remember being madly in love with JD. Looking back, I seriously wonder what on earth was wrong with me. Marty was leaps and bounds better

[@rickchyczewski576]

he really isnt. Marty, of all the top ten singers on the show, was the worst vocalist.He cant sing that well. He has a good act, I will give him that.

[@michellericker8608]

I still luv JD

[@HaveButOneLife]

@@rickchyczewski576 JD couldn't sing for shit at the time. Marty would've brought this band into the modern era, and I guarantee you that INXS regretted picking JD above Marty.

[@sab-ali]

I was 20 and i was mad for jd.i liked marty too. But now i really can't understand why i liked jd at all. Marty was definitely bettet as a personality too.

[@info62]

I liked Ty the first performance but after that I got sick of him. He overdid it a lot and it stopped sounding good very fast. Also I thought he was the weakest performance last episode. Which isn't really an insult because I didn't think anybody was actually bad.

[@GemGoddess1]

Agreed -- he could put on a fun set, but he didn't actually show much versatility throughout this competition. He's got a heck of a voice, crazy well-suited to gospel, bluesy-rock, and other similar genres, but I couldn't listen to an entire concert with him. The constant vibrato would wear me out. Also, he had serious "resting b!tch face." lol

[@helixmoore7636]

He was by far one of the best

[@rickchyczewski576]

Ty went home because of stop go. terrible song.

[@CaperCountry]

ty went home because he didn't fit the sound of INXS , Actually don t think I could watch a full concert of Ty , he does have One hell of a voice

[@nickveekens]

@@CaperCountry Go see Vintage Trouble when you get the chance!

[@paulcarr5918]

@@CaperCountry Exactly. Ty was and still is an excellent singer. Not for that band though. I think it's a shame how people still don't understand all these years later that this show was not The Voice or American Idol, they weren't looking for the "best singer". They were looking for the singer that best filled the role that would allow them to remain INXS, not become something new.

[@cristianriveros1972]

The best part of been in the bottom three, is huging Brooke like that! LOL

[@jasonlau2533]

She was so incredibly hot during all these shows it was ridiculous

[@416mcp]

I watched this when it first aired. Watching it now, I think Jordis wasn't as good as I remembered. JD was a jerk but I think they picked him to win way before the end. He didn't deserve to win and should have been eliminated way before this. Marty will always be my favorite.

[@kskisser]

It's actually true. As a former radio host, I interviewed Suzy after the finale and she had heard that INXS had actually selected JD in the very early stages. Although they didn't know it at the time until after the show had completed. I always knew that JD would not last long in the band because of his inability to play well with others and that, Ultimately, would spell his demise within the group.

[@HaveButOneLife]

@@kskisser I think that if they chose Marty or Mig, the band wouldn't have gone into early retirement. They'd still be touring today.

[@ofcatsandcrepes2080]

@@kskisser I KNEW it was rigged! JD is such an arrogant twatwaffle and manipulator. Decent singer, but he acts entitled because he "knows" INXS and starts shit. His ATTITUDE is in excess (horrid pun I know).

[@luisanatoli3707]

Let’s face it. None of the contestants know the INXS back catalogue, by their own admission! Some never heard of INXS before they got into this “comp”. When they need to sing INXS they are forewarned so they can rehearse and learn an unfamiliar song! 😂 LOL !

[@Blake101247]

I think they should have kicked JD here instead of Ty. Although with Tys sorrowful rant at the end I think they made the right decision, it wasn't right to do that on stage, especially at this moment during elimination.

[@rubygirl214]

No such thing as a black rocker?? What the hell do you call Jimi Hendrix?? And he was a rick star in the 60's...when segregation was a reality in some states still!!

[@highonimmi]

lead singer of seven dust is one of my fave rock singers...LAJON WITHERSPOON....one of my fave bands evah!

[@missyb9438]

Think they mean in current times. All the blacks are too interested in rap crap

[@afaceinthecrowd1983]

Elvis Presley broke that door down for everyone. They threatened him with jail time, said awful things, but he took it for team for all singers and genres. As he said: I don’t sound like nobody.” And so true, he was unlike anything or anyone , still to this day. His humanity and giving back more than he kept for himself is remarkable.

[@seanmoloney7797]

Living Colour

[@kskisser]

As far as her singing goes I thought Suzy did much better on the encore performance of Bohemian Rhapsody.

[@spectryl6681]

The African-American people pretty much invented rock n' roll! Or , at least, they were powerful progenitors of it.

[@peggyjenkinson4514]

I believe Ty feels the prejudice. I live where he is from. You can tell he has intelligence with the words he uses. In Southern California, we are less prejudice. We go to school with everyone. Only 12-19 % in Southern CA have blue eyes-depending on the city We are a mix and we're proud of it.

[@williamoost4564]

So what? Are you suggesting that Ty should have been chosen because he’s black?

[@afaceinthecrowd1983]

He can sing just like the rest, and like the rest they all needed their own bands for their unique style and sound. Just wasn’t a fit for INXS. So SICK of the division. RnR and where ALL ppl come together, and for the record RNR originated from Southern Gospel where ppl really feel it and sing it with soul. Combined with blues and Rockabilly, and then there’s Southern Rock. You should hear the tambourines and God’s ppl singing while the spirit moves. It runs from your head down to your feet. Like Little David played on his harp and danced before the Lord. Then there’s what we call “shouting.” Full of humble joy and like Elvis Presley, filling it run through him, couldn’t settle down. Fun fact: Elvis wanted to be a Gospel Singer and sang that every morning and when friends were over. Mama Cass sang Amazing Grace with him. God used him through the back door for witnessing power. Also Michael Hutchence and some started to be a Christian Rock band. Michael had a beautiful Christian traditional funeral. They also have a beautiful service for Malcom Young and hymnals sang.

[@melissap1575]

JD is a cry baby. Even now that he isn't in INXS anymore he still makes it everyone's fault but his including INXS.

[@christinagordon9879]

O

[@kskisser]

@@christinagordon9879 Probably why he has never been successful on his own. He just doesn't play well with others and his solo music isn't good enough to make it in this business

Ty gets eliminated and immediately goes to (old faithful & predictable)race card. You know when you keep getting the bottom 3 you are getting eliminated.

i 💯 get why jd is upset with susie , he has had susie back , helped her when she was at the bottom , has also mentored her , helped to get through this competition and given excellent advice aswell , jd clearly is a good friend and feels like susie is just using him and his friendship , she's a manipulator
