Live, baby, live
Now that the day is over
I gotta new sensation
In perfect moments
Impossible to refuse

Sleep, baby, sleep
Now that the night is over
And the sun comes
Like a god into our room
All perfect light and promises

Gotta hold on you
A new sensation, a new sensation
Right now gonna take you over
A new sensation, a new sensation

Dream, baby, dream
Of all that's come and going
And you will find out in the end
There really is
There really is no difference

Cry, baby, cry
When you got to get it out
I'll be your shoulder
You can tell me all
Don't keep it in ya

Well that's the reason why I'm here
Hey hey
Are you ready for a new sensation, new sensation
Right now?
Gonna take you on a new sensation, new sensation
(New sensation, news sensation)
(A new sensation)

Hate, baby, hate
When there's nothing left for you
You're only human what can you do
It'll soon be over
Don't let your pain take over you

Love, baby, love
It's written all over your face
There's nothing better we could do
Than live forever
Well that's all we've got to do
Hey now I'm gonna take a new sensation, new sensation
Right now
Gotta hold on you
A new sensation, new sensation
A new sensation, a new sensation
A new sensation

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.
