INXS - Afterglow
Lately, I don’t think I’ve ever been addicted to such a fabulous song as in the case with Afterglow, INXS’s second single from their 2005 comeback album, Switch.
I’ve never been a fan of INXS’s punk act during the days of their late frontman Michael Hutchence. That’s why I stopped following their music. However, I recently heard an amazing song on the popular weekly radio show, A State of Trance, that was a progressive trance remix of Afterglow by Randy Boyer. The song immediately caught my attention that I had to hear the original version.
This song is perfect in many ways. First of all, INXS’s new frontman, J.D. Fortune, does a fantastic job portraying the emotions in this song with his talented and beautiful voice. The song itself speaks about a person’s respect for death and need to move on from the sorrow of loss. The lyrics are very touching and the music really drives the mood of the song as close as possible to the listener’s heart. If you’ve ever lost someone, then this song will definitely take its toll on you.
For now, I think I’ll keep playing the song for a long time to come!
