INXS’s Breakthrough Album Kick
By: Scott Sjoberg
INXS’s Breakthrough Album Kick
A business owner and manager with a history in broadcast adverting sales, Scott Sjoberg currently
owns and operates a Right at Home franchise location with several partners. He also serves as a
partner with two golf-oriented marketing organizations. An avid music fan, Scott Sjoberg counts
INXS among his favorite bands.
INXS’s Breakthrough Album Kick
Although the hit single “What You Need” drove INXS’s 1985 release Listen Like Thieves to number
11 on the Billboard charts, the band’s next album, Kick, achieved a whole new level of popularity.
Not only did the album peak at number three on the Billboard charts, it generated four Top 10
singles: "Need You Tonight," "New Sensation," "Never Tear Us Apart," and "Devil Inside." “Need
You Tonight” became the only number one single in INXS’s career.
INXS’s Breakthrough Album Kick
Over the years, Kick has earned a reputation as a minor rock and roll classic. It has gone platinum
six times over in America, and has sold approximately 20 million copies around the world.
