INXS

INXS (pronounced "in excess", In-XS) were an Australian rock band, formed as The Farriss Brothers in 1977 in Sydney, New South Wales. Mainstays were Garry Gary Beers on bass guitar, Andrew Farriss on guitar and keyboards, Jon Farriss on drums, Tim Farriss on lead guitar and Kirk Pengilly on guitar and saxophone. For 20 years, INXS were fronted by Michael Hutchence on lead vocals, whose "sultry good looks" and magnetic stage presence made him the focal point of the band. Initially known for their New Wave/ska/pop style, they later developed a harder pub rock style, including funk and dance elements. more »

Venetian blinds are crackling 
I like the noise 
It's got texture 
Hit it again when I'm mad 
Close it again when I'm sad 
With the door closed I'm a king 
No questions 
No answers 
Don't like talking without reason 
What's the use if you stop feeling 

All alone I'm cynical to the TV 
Newsman's making passes to newslady 
Camera stops 
Newsreel babies 

I like to close all the doors 
Make it dark 
Make it cool 
Come in and talk 
Whatever you like 
I don't mind if it's something new
