How did the rest of the guys in INXS know when Michael was singing off key? His lips were moving. Submitted by: Donna W
| How could the other five members of INXS tell when Michael was singing out of tune? His lips were moving. I should add a disclaimer to this one. I am a very big fan of INXS, and Michael in particular. He was really truly a great singer, and I hope his ghost does not come around and haunt me for skewering him. Still, I couldn't resist.

"Old World, New World"
The Funny Lyrics: Mount Kalais to Mount Everest
Then down to River Ganges Why They're Funny: How can they misspell the right word 'Mt. Kailas'? Two words in each sentence sometimes don't mix up like 'River Ganges,' instead of 'Ganges River' (ie, it was transposed).

"Original Sin"
The Repetitive Lyrics: Dream on black boys
dream on white girls and wake up to a brand new day to find your dreams have washed away. Dream on black girls dream on white boys and wake up to a brand new day to find your dreams have washed away. Why They're Repetitive: I went to a lyric site and I actually counted how many xs he repeated 'dream on black boys, dream on white girls' and 'dream on white boys, dream on black girls.' 8 xs Michael repeated this! The more he repeated this the more I started to wonder about him?

"Never Tear Us Apart"
The Nonsensical Lyrics: But if I hurt you, I'd make wine from your tears
Why They're Nonsensical: Almost as strange and inexplicable as Billy Idol's "Someone's built a candy brain and filled it in".
Submitted by: Amanda
| "Hear That Sound"
The Nonsensical Lyrics: Use your imagination and start a fire
Why They're Nonsensical: Perhaps Mike Hutchence means the "start a fire" part figuratively, but some people listening to this might take it literally and burn things for whatever reason. Not recommended!

"What You Need"
The Insincere Lyrics: I'll take you where you really need to be, whoa oh
Why They're Insincere: The lyrical line refers to living at group homes, staying at mental hospitals, going to grade schools, staying in prisons, staying in jails, living in residential schools, moving to different homes that's 1000 miles away from parents' homes, and any place where anyone is being held-captive by kidnappers

"Taste It"
The Inappropriate Lyrics: Sweet, sweet, sweet, could you taste it?
Why They're Inappropriate: The rest of the song isn't sexual at all. This come-on feels random and gratuitous, unless it was to enhance that NSFW video. (Hoping Michael's ghost doesn't haunt me AGAIN)
