Then and Now: Episode 31 Slide Over Here and Give Me a Moment

One time, I had tickets to an INXS concert, with my friends, and I came down with strep throat. I was sick as a dog, fever and everything, and didn't want to go. My friends thought I was crazy, Michael Hutchins was worth the pain, they said. I didn't go, and they talked up the concert in front of me constantly. It was, it seemed, orgasmic to watch Michael on stage. Years later, when I did see them, I have to say I was disappointed. It was a good show and I enjoyed it, but in no way was it a sexual experience. I was expecting something more impossibly visceral, based on the stories I had heard. Maybe Michael just didn't feel like putting out that night. Nonetheless, I've always liked this song.

I like your Then and Now posts. My roommate and I had a door-sized poster of INXS back in the 90s. This is a great cover. Thanks for finding and sharing it.

Diggin' it! Like all yer tunes. Thanks, Jodi! ‡)
