A new year means a refreshed focus to bring you vital and valuable updates to the INXS community, and Bee and I are grateful to have this forum to map our individual and, collectively, our Top 7 INXS wishlists for 2026. With the band's touring and recording days behind them, INXS has maintained itself as a vital entity globally with a catalogue, mystique and legacy that still stands the test of time. That being said, there is a set of initiatives, projects and possibilities that INXS and management could explore that may increase their relevance and provide the impetus to a Rock Hall of Fame Induction. Interestingly, Bee and I have little crossover with our respective lists and very much hope some of these suggestions can eventuate and inspire new and existing fans globally. With our first news update section of the year and our Australia Day weekend INXS get together pending, do yourself a favour and tune into the latest episode of INXS: Access all Areas. Can't wait to hear your wishlists too!! Love and peace   https://www.inxsaccessallareas.com/  

January 16, 2026 Today we look at the top songs debuting on the Billboard chart this week back in 1986, 1996, 2006, & 2016. Dustin, Jason, & Tyler welcome NO ONE; it's a hosts-only romp thru the Hot 100. We discuss 13 songs from this week in music history, including 5 Top 10s & 2 #1s! We have new songs from 2 Chainz, INXS, Tori Amos, Kelly Clarkson, and more. Want to be cool like us and watch the music videos for all the songs? Then here's a convenient playlist that has them all in order of discussion.

The boys read rhyming cue cards, sweat through minimalist flirty funk, and use the scientific method to conduct an autopsy on the corpse of INXS' 1987 seductive single, “Need You Tonight/Mediate.” News items and digressions include Alex Van Halen and Steve Lukather spelunking through Eddie's archives in search of new tunes.

Happy 2026 New Year cheer to everyone in the INXS community, and welcome to our 6th year of unique INXS Podcast content. We kick off the year with the wonderful Lucinda Clutterbuck, famed Australian animator and film clip maker for INXS' 1993 “Please, you got that need”. A video that formed part of the Full Moon Dirty Hearts Album Visual project helmed by Richard Lowenstein. Having forged her way in the artistic community working with The Machinations, Midnight Oil and The Black Sorrows, Lucinda's creativity shifted between animation, documentaries, TV, public art and film. Traversing her skills globally, particularly in France and Costa Rica, many of Lucinda's key projects were met with much success during her time in Sydney and Melbourne, collaborating with many iconic Australian creatives. Her husband, Ray Argall, Directed 1990's, AACTA Film of the Year (formerly the AFI Awards) “Return Home” co-starring up-and-coming Australian actor Ben Mendelsohn, who similarly featured in the Full Moon Dirty Hearts film clip and later starred in The Dark Knight Rises. So sit back and ease your way into 2026 with a fascinating deep dive with the wonderful Lucinda Clutterbuck. Love and Peace https://www.inxsaccessallareas.com/

Kick 2017 Video with Director Steve Hanft “Watch the world argue, argue with itself, who's going to teach me peace and happiness” (Dancing on the Jetty 1983)... Never have these words and lyrics been more appropriate as all Australians try to make sense of the abhorrent terrorism at Sydney's iconic Bondi Beach. A beach with so many INXS connections that we discuss on this episode. That aside, we dedicate this episode to every person affected by this horrible crime.   We are thrilled to have Steve Hanft, the famed Californian film clip Director and early YouTube content creator, join the INXS podcast family and talk about his iconic 2017 promotional video for the song Kick, the eponymous title track commemorating the 30th anniversary of this juggernaut album's release. Having grown up with and worked on Beck's 1994 Video of the Year track “Loser”, Steve has been a mainstay in the underground and alternative music scene, producing clips for The Cure, Primal Scream and Elliot Smith. Additionally, Steve was at the forefront of YouTube with his award-winning “Sunglasses Catch", which has been named one of “The 10 Most Important YouTube Videos” according to Business Insider.   With a video shot on the beaches and boardwalks of Los Angeles, Steve shares some fascinating insights into the production, cast, Garry Gary Beers cameo and the vision behind the first-ever film clip for this fantastic song, and the influence Chris Murphy had. As we close out 2025, a big shout-out to our very important patrons who keep this podcast alive, to all our listeners, our amazing support team behind the scenes and every guest who has given up their time. We thank you so much. Love and peace, and have a great Christmas and New Year's break  We look forward to catching up with some of you soon at our next event on Saturday, 24th January, to celebrate Michael Hutchence's life https://www.inxsaccessallareas.com/new-notable Love Haydn and Bee

Shall we begin like David Copperfield? "I am born…I grew up?" Or shall we begin about 120 years after Anne Rice's novel Interview with the Vampire took place, with AMC's brilliant TV adaptation shifting the story from Louis de Pointe du Lac as a wealthy white plantation owner in the 1790s to one where Louis is a Black man in the 1910s working the red light district to keep his family fed? That's one of the many brilliant changes Rolin Jones and his writers have made to Rice's beloved book, and Paul, Arlo, and Eric couldn't be happier. The gang discusses why these changes fit so well in a series driven by its characters' perceptions of reality; the beautiful work by a cast including Jacob Anderson, Sam Reid, Eric Bogosian, Bailey Bass, Delainey Hayles, and Assad Zaman; and why, yes, this Interview is just better than the book.   NEXT: it's been a while since we've had a Four-Color Flashback, eh? Let's take back the night with J. Michael Straczynski and Gary Frank's Midnight Nation.

As we enter that festive time of year, there has been so much going on in the INXS world and broader rock music community with numerous tours, anniversary dates and industry events. As such, Bee and I thought it was appropriate to take stock and simply chat about all of these in a unique deep dive with an obvious INXS slant. There are at least 10 significant anniversary dates about past INXS releases, celebrating another yearly milestone. With Thanksgiving being recently enjoyed, Bee and I share our top 5 “most thankful” INXS moments of personal fan gratitude, and as always, we are miles apart with our lists. Operating in reverse order, we round out a bumper news section highlighting one global band's take on an INXS classic that shall confound you all! Oh yeah, it's been two years overdue, but we have a much-needed return of “The Rant” with one Australian journalist firmly in my firing line! So sit back, relax, pour a beer, wine, soda or coffee and enjoy a jam-packed episode of INXS: Access all Areas! Love and peace https://www.inxsaccessallareas.com/

This week on The Metro, Rev Jeff Ivins brings you more music for your weekly time warp with: INXS, Soft Cell, Rod Stewart, Midnight Oil, Eurythmics, Beat, 1927, Ministry, Limahl, Huey Lewis & The News, Nu Shooz, Murray Head, Midge Ure, The Go-Go’s, and finishes off with Tom Tom Club.

The months of October and November are anniversary periods of many INXS albums, and as such, we pay tribute to both Listen Like Thieves and Full Moon Dirty Hearts in a unique but fitting way. Released in 1985, Listen Like Thieves was a guitar-crunching, live-sounding and Chris Thomas-produced tour de force that broke the band in America and set the template for the juggernaut of Kick, only two years later. Full Moon Dirty Hearts, released in 1993, was an overlooked gem, coming hot on the heels of the critically acclaimed Welcome to Wherever You Are, which had been released only 14 months earlier. This was an experimental and hook-laden musical soundscape that was sadly overlooked in the marketplace as the grunge movement took over the planet. So Bee and I stack these two albums up track by track in an album “face off” where we compare, rank and rate 1-12 each song against one another with a collective lens on how these two fine albums connect with our ears, hearts and minds in 2025. And before you INXS nerds (like me) share the fact that Listen Like Thieves only has 11 songs, not 12 as FMDH does, we add a red herring to balance out the contest! With a bumper news section and a unique tribute track, it's time to forget about the problems in your life and enjoy the gift that is INXS: Access all Areas! Love and peace https://www.inxsaccessallareas.com/

It's that time of the year again when the wider musical industry, ardent INXS fans and friends/family give pause to the unfortunate loss of Michael Hutchence 28 years ago.   As a podcast in its 6th year, Bee and I have acknowledged November 22 nd, in a variety of ways. Some episodes have been heartfelt and mixed with solemnity. Some have acknowledged Michael's legacy with joy and unbridled pride.   In 2025, we thought it was appropriate to revisit an iconic episode with the Herald Sun Newspaper's leading journalist, Nui Te Koha, the last person ever to interview Michael, some 5 days before his untimely passing.   If you're new to INXS: Access All Areas, you're in for a special episode that pays due homage to Michael. If you've heard it before, experience it again under the lens of this heartfelt anniversary when the world lost one of its greatest frontmen. RIP Michael, from all who miss you. You'll always be one of our kind! Love and peace   https://www.inxsaccessallareas.com/

On November 8th, 2025, in America, we will witness the latest induction of musical acts into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, with Cindy Lauper, The White Stripes, Soundgarden, Bad Company, OutKast, and Chubby Checker as the recipients of this career-defining accolade. Obviously, the INXS fan community are disappointed with their continued omission; however, Bee and I get to dive deep with the USA Podcast team of “Who Cares about the Rock Hall of Fame” namely Host Joe Kwaczala, courtesy of valued patrons Jon Jamen and Dr Jim, who attended last year's ceremony. An experienced voice behind the machinations of the Rock Hall Committee, Joe shares some interesting insights, opinions, anecdotes and theories behind both the decision-making process and INXS' likely induction prospects in the years to come. INXS: Access All Areas' mission statement is to encourage, showcase, chronicle, rejoice in, and retrospectively highlight the amazing catalogue and contributions INXS have made to music and listeners across the globe. However, we've wanted our Podcast to expedite its ascent to the Rock Hall of Fame. Hopefully, this episode alerts important voters on the Committee to nominate them for 2026!!! Love and peace https://www.inductinxs.com/ https://www.inxsaccessallareas.com/

Mid-October is an important anniversary in the INXS world. The band released six albums during this period, with Kick being the most notable. It's this iconic release, some 38 years ago, that we commemorate in this episode. With the world at their feet following the commercial breakthrough of Listen Like Thieves, particularly in the States, the band handed over full songwriting responsibilities to both Michael and Andrew, with the results soaring above and beyond all expectations. Rather than review the album (as done previously), Bee and I take a nostalgic walk down memory lane and reminisce about this 1987 release, our feelings, impressions and how its legacy stands tall 38 years later amongst fans, peers and critics. Additionally, Haydn dives deep into his Crown Casino concert experience with JD Fortune and the band in Melbourne with song setlist deep dives and after-show meet and greets with him. Combined with a chunky news section and an iconic tribute cover song at the end of the episode, make sure you tune, shut out the world and get your needed fix of INXS: Access all Areas.

The mysterious Tango returns to help us decode the 1994 release of INXS's Greatest Hits. This album had a unique release in the UK, but we are covering the US version on this episode. INXS was one of the greatest bands of the 1980's, surviving the malaise of 1980's techno-pop and new wave nonsense on the wings of great rock and roll guitar riffs, exceptional high hat percussions and a rangy lead singer in the mold of Jim Morrison and Robert Plant in Michael Hutchence. If you are interested in more about the greatest band ever to come from the Land Down Under, please refer to our sister podcast, Rock and Roll Heaven, which is smack dab in the middle of a multi-part series on the dynamic lead singer of this band. As always, please wait for the end of the episode to find out our infamous "Banger" of the podcast! #michaelhutchence #inxs #devilinside #theonething #Kick #paulayates #eightiesrock #rockandroll #rockandrollheaven #NickCave #JimMorrisonYUH Theme by David T and Mojo 3https://www.amazon.com/Insanity-Sobri...INXS Greatest Hits on Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/album/2uz3VOKnWeyeWbEggiuXlC?si=GKnYT0g3RmKNfszKcIBcrwThe Anti-Social Network on Youtubehttps://www.youtube.com/@ASN4LIFEYeah Uh Huh Social Stuff:Yeah Uh Huh on TikTokhttps://www.tiktok.com/@yeahuhhuhpodYeah Uh Huh on Facebookhttps://facebook.com/YeahUhHuhPodYeah Uh Huh on Twitterhttps://twitter.com/YeahUhHuhPodYeah Uh Huh on Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/7pS9l716ljEQLeMMxwihoS?si=27bd15fb26ed46aaYeah Uh Huh on Apple Podcastshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/yeah-uh-huh/id1565097611Yeah Uh Huh Website:https://yeah-uh-huh.wixsite.com/yeahuhhuhpod

Explosive pop rock duo Bound were formed on a fateful Saturday night on 14th of October, 2023! The lads aligned as founding members Harry Gold (singer) and Kriss (guitar) forged Bound in a frenzy of creative output with 3 songs and big ambitions. The Dublin duo have continued to write songs in a variety of styles and genres from bluesy rock, to 80's inspired pop, to feel good summer anthems, and have been wowing audiences with their dynamic live shows. Their first single with label Beardfire “Show Me Now” turned heads and pricked ears with it's potent mix of classic blues riffage and modern pop hooks! And now the enigmatic duo turn their hand to 80's style pop rock reminiscent of hit makers INXS! “Can't Get You Off of My Mind” is at once familiar and fresh, combining retro nostalgia with up to the minute production and style! “Can't Get You Off Of My Mind” is the second single from upcoming EP “Not Your Type”.

Another album, another tour, another country to call home, and another beautiful woman. In some ways, the early ‘90s were business as usual for Michael Hutchence. However, his relationship with his bandmates in INXS was changing, the musical landscape was changing, and some other changes, none for the good, were right on the horizon.

Two of the 1980"s most popular alt emo pop rock bands, INXS and Duran Duran, face off in this middleweight bout, one of our closest ones yet.

September 7th, 1988, marked the culmination of 11 years of toil and sweat, when a true “band of brothers” from down under became the biggest musical act on the planet by scooping the pool at the 1988 MTV Music Awards. Nominated for nine awards, INXS walked away with the top five major honors, edging out longtime rivals U2, along with music legends like George Harrison, Bruce Springsteen, and XTC, with their iconic Need You Tonight/Mediate song and groundbreaking video. By this time, the MTV Awards had already surpassed the Grammys as the preeminent music event, and INXS rightfully stood as the darlings of the international music industry. Having spent the previous decade tirelessly touring the globe and steadily building momentum, they reached a crescendo that placed them at the very center of the late-'80s musical zeitgeist. With fellow icons including Rod Stewart, Aerosmith, Depeche Mode, Guns N' Roses, Elton John, Cher, Bryan Ferry, Peter Gabriel, Cyndi Lauper, and The Bangles appearing or presenting, the night became both a peer-to-peer celebration and global recognition of INXS' remarkable achievements. Much of this impact was amplified through the vision of legendary TV producer Dick Clark, who ensured the event was broadcast around the world. So it's with great pleasure that Bee and I unpack this unforgettable night, explore the rise and history of the MTV Awards, and reflect on the lasting impact this achievement continues to hold within the INXS legacy. Love and peace ✌️ https://www.inxsaccessallareas.com/  

This week on The Metro, Rev. Jeff Ivins brings you the following artists for your weekly time warp back to the 1980s with: Bryan Ferry, Echo & The Bunnymen, Morrissey, Joy Division, Sheena Easton, Pet Shop Boys, INXS, A Flock Of Seagulls, Animotion, Big Country, Belinda Carlisle, George Michael, Magazine, Re-Flex, and finishing off with the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

With the gigantic success of “Kick”, Michael Hutchence had a chance to do a musical side project, he had the opportunity to star in movies, and he had more high-profile relationships with famous, beautiful women. He and INXS also had the unenviable task of trying to record a follow-up to that iconic album.

On this week's episode of Friends Talking Nerdy, Professor Aubrey and Tim the Nerd turn their ears toward one of the most expressive instruments in music history: the saxophone. From Bob Seger's hauntingly beautiful “Turn The Page” to the iconic smoothness of Wham's “Careless Whisper,” the duo digs into the way the saxophone can transform a song into something timeless. They groove through the Rolling Stones' laid-back “Waiting On A Friend,” dance with Bowie's “Modern Love,” feel the epic storytelling in Springsteen's “Jungleland,” and toast with the classic party anthem “Tequila” by The Champs. The journey continues with Aretha Franklin's powerhouse hit “Respect,” the soulful yearning of INXS' “Never Tear Us Apart,” the rock ‘n' roll roots of Bill Haley's “Shake, Rattle, and Roll,” and another Bowie gem, “Young Americans.”Check out the playlist on YouTube Music.In the second half of the show, Tim the Nerd reflects on the passing of professional wrestling icon Hulk Hogan. While acknowledging Hogan as the spark that first drew him into the world of wrestling, Tim candidly explores the complicated legacy Hogan leaves behind—both as a larger-than-life performer and as a deeply flawed man. He emphasizes the importance of being honest about public figures' lives, for better and worse, while also calling out the extremes of online criticism that turned into harassment of Hogan's loved ones.It's a thoughtful, music-filled episode blending appreciation for the power of the saxophone with a nuanced conversation about legacy, fandom, and the messy ways we talk about the people who shaped pop culture.As always, we wish to thank Christopher Lazarek for his wonderful theme song.

INXS fans are in for another treat with Part Two of our fascinating deep dive with the inimitable Gary Grant who joined the INXS family in 1981. His contribution was as large as any in ensuring INXS' business affairs, touring and promotional efforts were A grade in every way. A great storyteller, we get fascinating insights into the game-changing tour with Adam Ant in 1983, why Australian band Managers were so successful globally and numerous anecdotes about a time and place when music was front and centre in people's entertainment consciousness. Gary generously shares the remarkable relationship and teamwork with Chris Murphy followed by the unfortunate fallout that culminated in the Concert for Life at Centennial Park in March 1992 with Gary departing the INXS family. Not one to rest on his laurels, Gary was able to parlay his skills into venue management whereby he spearheaded Sydney's Luna Park's foray into concert hosting. A role that would last over a dozen years and coincidentally saw him hosting INXS' 2006 Sydney gigs with JD Fortune and the Switch Tour. We get Bee's counterpoint “Pleasure and Pain” list from 1981, a special news section with some famous September birthdays (hello) plus an iconic tribute song that celebrates its 40th anniversary. So do yourself a favour, forget about the problems in your life and tune into INXS: Access all Areas! Love and Peace https://www.inxsaccessallareas.com/ https://www.inxsaccessallareas.com/patrons
