INXS
"Kick" album band
INXS is an Australian rock band formed in 1977, known for hits like "Need You Tonight" and "Never Tear Us Apart." The name is a phonetic spelling of "in excess," suggesting indulgence or abundance.
Lead singer Michael Hutchence's death in 1997 marked the end of the band's commercial peak.
I've been listening to INXS all week.
