The band is INXS, a six piece band who became superstars but in this story they weren&#8217;t there yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"INXS - The Loved One\" width=\"1170\" height=\"878\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Z2qdXehmtvM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>So what does INXS got to do with The Loved Ones? The answer is &#8220;The Loved One&#8221; as INXS recorded the song and actually released it as a non-album single in 1981.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;The Loved One&#8221; was the band&#8217;s first Top Twenty single with the band achieving nineteen more Top Twenty singles between 1981 and 2005 though the count moves to twenty if you include &#8220;Never Tear Us Apart&#8221; reaching No. 11 in 2014.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The DVD version of Australia&#8217;s Ultimate Songs combined both The Loved Ones and INXS clips of &#8220;The Loved One&#8221; which there are plenty of differences from the singing style to the instructions used (INXS did not do the hand claps) but it is good if you want two versions for the price of one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The Loved One\" width=\"1170\" height=\"878\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/DxeeZbydY3g?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>INXS in 1987 released their acclaimed album &#8220;Kick&#8221; and Track 6 of that international hit album was &#8220;The Loved One&#8221; and this version is a different recording to the 1981 single and it fitted in nicely with the album&#8217;s hit tracks like &#8220;Never Tear Us Apart&#8221; and &#8220;Need You Tonight&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Gerry Humphreys  - The Loved One (live 1988 soundcheck)\" width=\"1170\" height=\"878\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/G0BO4M6GURM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Gerry Humphrys was at the Melbourne Music Festival a year later and his soundcheck was recorded and thankfully it was uploaded to YouTube for viewers to see Gerry give a new take on the iconic song.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Two bands, one song and both were successes and the success of the two has ensures that &#8220;The Loved One&#8221; will be played long into history.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today&#8217;s music story is a little different because we get to talk about not one band but two, two bands who had successful careers, reached iconic status and both had something else in common.
