In the silence, I think of you
I send a message, and I hope it gets through
Think of the distance
Think of the miles
All of the valley's, could take a while

I miss the people
I miss the fun
You're my apparition
She's my only one

And I imagine you standing here
It's subliminal, so inspirational
Man of the world for all the good reasons
Take away the pain and drink the wine

I miss the people
I miss the fun
You're my apparition
She's my only one

In the silence, I think of you
I send a message and I hope it gets through
Think of the distance
Think of the miles
All of the valleys, could take a while

I miss the people
I miss the fun
You're my apparition
She's my only one

I miss the people
You miss the fun
You're my apparition
She's my only one

INXS

INXS was originally formed in 1977 in Sydney, Australia as the Farriss Brothers. The lineup included the three Farris brothers: Andrew

(songwriter/keyboards); Tim (guitar); and Jon (drums), along with Michael Hutchence (lead vocals/songwriter); Kirk Pengilly (guitar/saxophone) and Garry Gary Beers (bass). They began gaining popularity playing in pubs before moving on to support other local Australian bands, including Midnight Oil.

In 1979, they changed their name to INXS and released their first single “Simple Simon” in 1980. They went on to release their debut self-titled album INXS in 1980, closely followed by their second album, Underneath the Colours, in 1981. Neither album gained much attention outside of Australia, however, in July of 1982 INXS released their single “The One Thing” ahead of their next studio album. The song began to climb the U.S. and international charts, thanks in part to music video’s heavy rotation on MTV.
