Even though it's doing really well in downloads, that can be greatly attributed to it's television exposure. Unless this ends up blowing up at Hot AC too, I don't see it coming anywhere near the CHR/Pop chart.

You are probably right but I think pop will give this a chance ... rocky-sh but fun and catchy tune. By the way, their new singer sounds so much like Michael! #7 on itunes now ... this might become the first INXS Hot100 song after a long time! Anyone knows what was their last Hot100 & Pop100 hit? biz.yahoo.com/prnews/051004/nytu070.html?.v=24INXS to Launch 2006 World Tour in North America Tuesday October 4, 10:00 am ET NEW YORK, Oct. 4 /PRNewswire/ -- Multi-platinum rock band INXS will be introducing new lead singer J.D. Fortune to the world's concert stages when they embark on the first leg of their world tour in early 2006. The INXS "Switched On" tour, produced nationally by Metropolitan Talent Presents, kicks off January 18th in Vancouver, BC. The North American leg will extend to more than 20 U.S. cities and two stops in Canada. Tickets are scheduled to go on sale the weekend of October 15. Up-to-date tour information will be posted at www.INXS.com. "The TV show 'Rock Star: INXS' generated millions of new INXS fans across North America and there is a great deal of excitement to see the band perform live once again," says John Scher, Co-CEO of Metropolitan Talent Presents. "Years of touring have earned INXS a massive reputation as a great live band. I have no doubt that this will be a memorable tour." INXS recently released the hot new single "Pretty Vegas" and are currently working on their Epic Records debut with producer Guy Chambers. The album, entitled SWITCH, is due in stores November 29th. Over the course of their 25-year-career, INXS has sold more than 30 million albums worldwide and performed over 4,000 live shows for more than 25 million people in almost 50 countries.

Anyone knows what was their last Hot100 & Pop100 hit? Last Hot 100 hit was "Beautiful Girl" (#46 in 1993). They didn't release a single for 1997's "Elegantly Wasted", which hit #27 on Hot 100 Airplay and #19 on R&R's CHR/Pop chart.

That's my second favorite song MuscleClub :) You rock man! ;) That song was my introduction to INXS a couple of years ago ... I saw the clip in a bar and I bought the "Kick" album the very next day ... Rock/pop music just can't get much better than that!

I like this song! This could do moderately well with the downloads on the Billboard charts.
In terms of CHR/Pop, it will do okay. I think more stations will pick up on this as time goes on.

"Elegantly Wasted" I believe hit #19 in 1997 on the R & R Pop chart.

OC, thanks for the review. I don't usually trust reviews but if I had to read somebody's opinion, Chuck Taylors reviews would be my last choice! The guy just like to trash almost everything! This song is not bad! ... Thumbs Way Down for Mr Taylor and his reviews!- :)

Nice, it would be nice to see more than 75 spins, but it's a start!
I'm so glad that this song is getting support, it's great to see some VERY local talent (go J.D.) having success.

Fortune is certainly no Michael Hutchence, but this song is actually really good.[/font]

I knew that on the way more and more people would like this song. It is a 'little bit' on the rock side and it takes a while to grow on you. JD is not Michael but he did a good job with the vocal. I enjoy listening to the song a lot!

I wanted that dude to win simply because I liked this song so much. That review sucks, of course they want someone that can sound like Hutchence, after all their main revenue is going to be touring and playing the hits. I hope this song does really well, but I'm realisitic enough to know that it will be a major surprise if it cracks the top40. Hope it does though.

I really like this too, the chorus is so catchy and JD sounds good on it
I dont really care much for the whole 'Canadian pride' thing, but anyways...
I think I remember him singing this on the TV show...I wasnt paying attention, but were the Final 2 or Final 3 ALL required to sing this song? Sort of like on American Idol when both members of the Final 2 sing the song that will be released by the winner?
Or was Pretty Vegas JD's song specifically?
