I thought JD FOrtune was great as their singer. Ah well...
Was he the one who won the reality tv auditions......I kinda liked the first release they had...and he was a good singer who fit their image well.....But, alas, he was no Michael Hutchence an so I guess the "fans" didn't tlae to him very well....
But they were NEVER going to BE INXS that people knew and love without him....regardless of their talent.....
They seem to be doing enough to keep going all these years since he died (15)...so maybe they were not interested in being in the spotlight of fame again....
In cases like this one it is probably better to change your name rather than try to carry on with the name that most people associate more with the guy who died!
I agree. I can understand them not changing it...I don't know much about INXS, but from what I've heard, they were pretty much a good bar band without Hutchence. He elevated them to stardom level.
Yeah, i get that the group wanted to continue playing...It's not their fault their singer killed himself.....but they probably would've had more success if the frontman hadn't been the one to go. Bands rarely swap out lead singers and continue to do well.

I thought they were okay when Hutchence was the singer. They did some good tracks. Once they hit that reality show business, yikes. Over.
Pretty much as soon as Hutchence died they were not INXS any more..
He was clearly the only one of them with a "rock star" personality....and the "vibe" of the band.....so when he checked out early, there was no personality left in the group to take over..
