ON THIS DATE IN 1988, THE AUSSIE BAND THAT FORMED IN 1977, INXS, WHO’S FRONTMAN MICHAEL HUTCHENCE HAD ALL THE CHARISMA, STAGE PRESENCE AND SEDUCTIVE VOCALS FINALLY LANDED AT #1 ON THE U.S CHARTS. THAT #1 SINGLE WOULD BECOME THE BAND’S SIGNATURE SONG AND WAS THE FIRST SINGLE FROM THEIR 1987 ALBUM, KICK…BUT FUNNY ENOUGH, IT WAS THE LAST SONG RECORDED FOR THAT NOW LEGENDARY ALBUM. “NEED YOU TONIGHT” DUDE…THAT WAS MY JAM BACK IN THE DAY…I REALLY THOUGHT IT WAS SOOOO ROMANTIC BUT NOW…36 YEARS LATER I GET THAT IT WAS A BOOTY CALL SONG! LMAO…BUT THIS GIRL DOESN’T CARE…IT STILL ROCKS…”NEED YOU TONIGHT” IT’S TODAY’S ROXY’S ROCK REWIND ON 105.7 THE X
CHECK OUT THE VIDEO …DO IT! ~RoXy
