INXS - The One Thing (Mercury)

Listening to this makes you realise how few new groups have any simple old fashioned energy. This is not the greatest song in the world but INXS go for it as if it were their one and only chance of making a record, selling it with enormous zest and lots of concise instrumental fills (there's even a guitar riff in there, but I wouldn't spread it about). "The One Thing" doesn't really sound like anyone else at all, which is recommendation enough these days. Single Of The Fortnight. (David Hepworth, Smash Hits, September 15, 1983)
