  • day 62: Never Tear Us Apart

    Never Tear Us Apart, by INXS.

    If you are somewhere close to my age, and were a romantic elementary/middle school kid in just the right years, INXS KICK played a part in your puberty, probably.

    Need You Tonight was the pinnacle of that breathy unknown, of course, but this song is the strings-and-saxophone power ballad you might’ve imagined slow dancing to with some dramatically won sweetheart.

    No? Just me? Also, it’s OK for karaoke if you can hit the note that I miss in that one part.

    Afternoon project on a day off, so you get electric guitar and the finest “epic synth strings” that Garageband has to offer, among other things.
