The winner of the INXS singles rate was Need You Tonight.

Time for us to say goodbye to the INXS rate with the Top 2 incoming, now this track was very close to winning in fact it was until the last couple of results came in, and it would have won had I not changed my 12, as Baby Don't Cry was always my 11, it was between this and Way Of The World with...

I suppose the main question left, Is it a Kick lockout for the top 2 positions well the answer to that will follow..... NO This is a truly superb ballad, that draws you in from the start. It is all I have to say about the track that starts our Top 3 No3 Never Tear Us Apart Score 93.00...

So that leaves us a Top 3 of Need You Tonight, Never Tear Us Apart and Original Sin, but in what order?

Lead single from X is on the way next, yes I do love myself some harmonica, and this starts brilliantly. No4 Suicide Blonde Score 86.10 Average 9.56 Highest Score 11 (Remorque) Lowest Score 8 (Blaahh) Comments Include "Good come back single after over a year away and the bass is to the...

Up next a track I enjoyed more at time of release than I do now, but having said that it is a brilliant piece of rock/pop N05 New Sensation Score 84.50 Average 9.38 Highest Score 10 (Hairycub1969, Epic Chocolat, Remorque, Eric Generic, LetUInMyBackDoor Untouchable Ace) Lowest Score 8...

Last but not least for today this is one of those songs that is a little sneaky, you start with well it's not bad, then every time you hear it, the song goes up in your estimation every time. Not many songs do that, this is one of them No8 Kiss The Dirt (Falling Down The Mountain) Score 82.60...

Very hard for me to pick the weakest track single wise from this album but this would be the one at the lower end and that is no slight on the song, great rock pick me up track, Goodbye to another 12. No9 What You Need Score 82.40 Average 9.15 Highest Score 12 (Eric Generic) Lowest Score...

Into the Top 10 we go, normally I would just do 2 tracks but today we do 3 for a reason which will become apparent as we go through the tracks. This was the first track I bought from the band but once it had been reduced saw it for I think 30p and decided to give it a go. Glad I did taken from...

So that leaves your Top 10 Need You Tonight, Listen Like Thieves, Never Tear Us Apart, Original Sin, Kiss The Dirt, New Sensation, Disappear Devil Inside, What You Need and Suicide Blonde.
