When I was a kid, I passively listened to INXS some, by that I mean that my father played them a lot in the car, and I sort of semi-listened. But it was just a few years ago that I re-discovered them, and they quickly became one of my favorite bands even though their style is a bit different from most of the bands that I love.
​
If you want to listen to more than these ten songs, check out my MV Playlists, you find all my INXS songs on Playlist 7. For this Top List, I have a short description of why I like each song, but I primarily figure the songs will speak for themselves!
I hope you enjoy my top 10 favorite INXS songs!

#10 Original Sin
Original Sin is in many ways a standard INXS song with all the glory that it includes. I found this one fairly late so it might climb this list in the future. One thing that sticks out a little is also the Music Video, as I really like motorcycles.
#9 DEVIL INSIDE
This one has a very cool vibe to it, almost sexy. I especially like the lyrics in this one, even though pretty much everything else is great about it as well. Just like the previous entry, this one can also likely climb the list in the future.
#8 KISS THE DIRT
Sometimes when you hear a song, you don't appreciate it until much later and this is the case with this one. First, I thought it was mediocre to be fully honest, but after hearing it dozens of times I see the greatness in this wonderful song!
#7 NEVER TEAR US APART
It's one of their "calmer" songs and their best "calm song" INXS song so to speak. It's really powerful and has left a big impact on me. The best part has to be that they include a lot of string instruments, which work really well.
#6 PRETTY VEGAS
This is the song on this list that was recorded the most recently and the only song on this list with singer J.D. Fortune. Even though he can't match the talent of Michael Hutchence, he does a good job, and this song is still really good!
#5 KICK
Kick is the song that re-introduced me to INXS. I had heard them when I was younger but sort of forgot them, but hearing Kick a few years ago made me re-discover INXS and I will always love this song because of that!
#4 NEED YOU TONIGHT
When I speak with friends about INXS, this is often the song they know the best. And I understand why, it's a very solid song that has gained the band a lot of fans. It's certainly a candidate to reach my top three in the future!
#3 GOOD TIMES
Good Times was briefly my favorite INXS song, but the number one and two songs eventually passed it. This is nearly flawless and has a nice tempo and stomp that I just love. The other singer, Jimmy Barnes, does a great vocal job too!
#2 DISAPPEAR
Picking between this and the number one was some of the hardest choice I ever made in any of my playlists. They are both from their, by far, best album named "X". I have to consider it a tie between this and the "number one" song.
#1 SUICIDE BLONDE
Like I said in the previous entry, I consider this a tie with Disappear. They are both phenomenal, but hey, some song has to be put in each entry. Listen to both if you haven't already and decide for yourself which you enjoy the most!
