While Mr. Hutchence will obviously always be the voice on INXS, this song comes so close to being a perfect INXS song. There’s no denying how great it is.
This particular song is one of the most underappreciated songs I know. Could even be Number One on the Underappreciated List. That it came out of some silly TV show, which by the way I watched in real-time, makes it all the more jaw-dropping. I love the INXS studio version, but this Navarro-fueled live version (the whole band is freakin' incredible) is just about as good as it gets. Period.
I was gonna leave a comment pretty much saying the same thing but you stole it!!!! hahahahaha ! This dude fuckin rocks! I wish INXS WOULD ASK J.D BACK TO SING FOR THEM NOW THAT HE IS SOBER BUT I AM SURE THAT AINT GONNA HAPPEN!!!! IS IT GUY'S???? LOVE TO ALL
I agree, I remember watching this with my big brother(rip) and it was really fun. Yeah, a lot of that show was kinda lame but there was a ton of talent on the show and a lot of great performances!! Watching this takes me back to that time.
years later i'll still come back and say I'm happy I voted for JD. I'm a diehard INXS fan...since 1988. So...I understand losing Hutch and all..but this was great. I was so happy to see a reality show starring INXS...WHo would ever have thought that would happen!!?!?! SERIOUSLY.
JD Fortune and Dave Navarro are great... but let's not forget, THE DRUMMER ! This guy is solid and took a "top 40" sound and saved it with hard rock and roll
I remember watching this on tv years ago now along with Rockstar supernova. I still come back to this on youtube it was such a good show. Why do we have American Idol and The voice and not rock competitions like this anymore... I'm part of generation X and Miss rock and roll!
This is actually really great! I never saw the show but heard JD was awesome. I see A LOT of Scott Weiland in JD...not just with the megaphone either, but his on-stage presence and vocal style. Good Job!
this is just the best "get ya in the mood ",track going,and how's the drummer,reminds me of "animal"from sesame Street, awesome thanks JD , cheers 🍻 Robbie Renalson
When I saw this originally I cried a little, because I felt for a moment like J.D. was almost channelling the spirit of Michael Hutchence. Pity how it turned out.
I loved this dude What the hell has he gone? A shame it didn’t work out I saw them live with jd and he was really great. I mean no one could replace Michael but he did great work
From what it sounded like he was young and partying.....Not at the same speed as the rest of the guys...Sadly. I'm thinking if they were at the same level they'd have gone so much further.
JD was cocky but he deserved it. This show was so awesome because the talent was huge and the competition was healthy. They would give one another advice and tips on how to do better and they all supported each other. Marty was so good he ended up opening for INXS on their world tour!
I ask, looking at this video if JD fortune knew the future and what happened with INXS and him. I wonder if he would have realized he is such a star in his own right that he didn't need them. I think instead of the six years in INXS, those years could have been used to build his career and not sustain INXS.
2 sides to a story.. JD thought he could jump into Mikes lifestyle...too stoned to perform sadly, and deep seated issues he needed to work on... Inxs grew up together, worked all hours... Jd stepped in, then got stepped out... Shame...he has a good voice, but i still think Rockstar would have done well with Jordis as a frontwoman... that really would have tickled Mikes sense of humour... 💞✌🙏
Personally I think it was that kiss he gave Dave.That and Tim Farris, (Lead guitarist with INXS) was headbanging soon as the chorus began! He really rocked this version though!! Blew the doors off all the competition in just under 3 minutes.
@@macd90405 There is a moment where Navarro looks over to watch JD that lets you know that Fortune is leading the band. Even Dave couldn’t keep his eyes off of the show
@@macd90405 The chorus is key. The lift in energy was mega and totally in line with the INXS vibe. It's not easy to write a song like this especially on a TV show.
JD Fortune made INXS relevant again, back in 2005. He was the ONLY guy who could step in for Hutch. Then INXS f@cked him over. I miss seeing them live. If INXS tours again? I hope it's with JD...
Where the hell is JD Fortune? In 2005, when he won Rock Star INXS, he was the best lead singer, performer since Michael Hutchence (RIP) with INXS. Where is he now? With this enormous talent, he deserves to be in the A list of singers and performers! JD was, and is, amazing! JD, wherever you are, please come back, we miss you!
***** Agree so much. JD HAS the voice. No disputing that. He was likely on drugs but hey Hutchence was too. He was suddenly put into place as the hot lead singer filling the shoes of the original dead hot lead singer of a huge & well respected band. Personally I think these guys used JD. He has all the talent - they resented his hotness and I am sure his youngness played a factor in how they all 15 years his senior treated him. He probably did drugs to cope. Hope he is clean and I wish the super talented JD all the best. Don't waste it dude!!!
Sandra Montisci JD was a rat on the show, he was cocky, and desperate to become a famous, yet he was nothing near Michael Hutchence in terms of talent, he was a temporary fill in and got what was coming to him in the end imho
With the house band it sounds much better - harder more energy. INXS just played it way to layed back. The Drummer in the house band hits a ton and drives the song.
I wish they would bring this show back. Unfortunately, Tommy Lee's project of Supernova was just a flavor of the month type of deal that it never picked up, though I feel the winner that season should have been Ryan Star instead of Lucas Rossi. I could see Supernova excelling under Ryan's voice, but not with Rossi's.
This show actually was pretty cool and good idea good performances good musicianship everything about this was really cool. Too bad it never materialized into anything after this tho…
inxs did not ruin anyone, JD is the vocalist and should be in there song writing lyrically and musically. So If anyone has the blame on it its JD, very talented vocalist though
man I remember watching this when I was younger and me and my parents thought he was a huge dick lol I was disappointed when he won. Though he's got like 231 followers on twitter and Marty Casey's got like over 2000, so I suppose my favorite did sort of win in the end. heh.

This song won him the competition.
This version was badass, especially with Dave Navarro.

Completely agree.
This won him the competition. I love the studio version, but with the house band and Dave Navarro, it just sounds so f**king badass.

Oh thanks and how long have you been a fan of mine@@Thediamondduck11
I watched the season as well, and saw the tour that followed. I loved this guy and Jordis Unga

Such a great time back watching this show life was great
I gotta come back here every once in awhile. He blew this shit up with Navarro !!
JD Fortune and Dave Navarro are great... but let's not forget, THE DRUMMER ! This guy is solid and took a "top 40" sound and saved it with hard rock and roll
That’s Nate Morton. He’s the drummer of the house band on The Voice. The guy is a BEAST!
underated Stick man
The house band made this show, just amazing
and i'm not sure, save ur tears & laughter :)
Almost 20 years ago! Back in 2005 I never thought I’d be here in nearly 2024 rewatching all these old Rockstar vids. Best show!
Crackin Track
Me either, but here I am. 😊
I know, same here. Boy, its hard to believe its been damn near 20 yrs ago now....where has the time flown??
This version rocks way harder than the studio version. Inxs ripped its balls off
I remember watching this on tv years ago now along with Rockstar supernova.
I still come back to this on youtube it was such a good show.
Why do we have American Idol and The voice and not rock competitions like this anymore... I'm part of generation X and Miss rock and roll!
31/12/2023 and I remember this song ..badass drummer and JD was the best singer!
All these years later I love this guy and his other great song is "Afterglow"...find it , enjoy it , love it....love this guy!
This is actually really great! I never saw the show but heard JD was awesome. I see A LOT of Scott Weiland in JD...not just with the megaphone either, but his on-stage presence and vocal style. Good Job!
this is just the best "get ya in the mood ",track going,and how's the drummer,reminds me of "animal"from sesame Street, awesome thanks JD , cheers 🍻 Robbie Renalson
This song kicks so much ass still.. would love to hear Michael sing it, but JD was the man for the job at that time and place
The attention to detail
utilizing the megaphone 📢 fantastic
He was a worthy winner here and Inxs should have persevered with one more album at least after "switch" with J D.
When I saw this originally I cried a little, because I felt for a moment like J.D. was almost channelling the spirit of Michael Hutchence. Pity how it turned out.
And a bit of Elvis
This show is pure nostalgia! ❤
I loved this dude What the hell has he gone? A shame it didn’t work out I saw them live with jd and he was really great. I mean no one could replace Michael but he did great work
He's on Twitter, Instagram, Patreon. He's recording, and always writing.
From what it sounded like he was young and partying.....Not at the same speed as the rest of the guys...Sadly. I'm thinking if they were at the same level they'd have gone so much further.
Great performance of amazing song
The drummer torn that up!!!
JD's just too good. Got the whole package. 🤩
This sealed the deal for him with the band.. Loved Rock Star INXS... Keep ROckin' JD this CD rocked and is a breath of fresh air..!! I love this CD.!!
I still like Strangest Party slightly better but this rocks
Ahh, 2005. Rockstar INXS. Cheesy as the concept was, I really really loved this show!! The second season was an absolute car crash though!
JD was cocky but he deserved it. This show was so awesome because the talent was huge and the competition was healthy. They would give one another advice and tips on how to do better and they all supported each other. Marty was so good he ended up opening for INXS on their world tour!

agreed
I miss this show
Me too. That entire album was stellar. He needs to make a comeback. Too bad inxs were pricks to him.
2 sides to a story..
JD thought he could jump into Mikes lifestyle...too stoned to perform sadly, and deep seated issues he needed to work on...
Inxs grew up together, worked all hours...
Jd stepped in, then got stepped out...
Shame...he has a good voice, but i still think Rockstar would have done well with Jordis as a frontwoman...
that really would have tickled Mikes sense of humour...
💞✌🙏
Canta bonito este canadiense ❤❤👏👏👏👏🇪🇦🇪🇦🇪🇦
This was so good 💕
I member when this first came out you know what I’m saying
i love you jd i watched this on tv and it is great
best version ever!
The best version, more powerful, more rock.
He's so hot!!!! I love you JD Fortune! Dave Navarro you rock!
I would have loved to have been their to see a legand like dave play with a great upcoming artist
this version is way better than the crummy INXS version
100%. They could have left it alone
Um no . The bridge in the INXS version and the slide guitar is the best ... INXS polished it up to get it on the charts ... Made it great.
Well when Dave Navarro is on guitar, things do tend to sound a little bit more electric
now i know why JD won. He got the charisma 😀😀😀
Personally I think it was that kiss he gave Dave.That and Tim Farris, (Lead guitarist with INXS) was headbanging soon as the chorus began! He really rocked this version though!! Blew the doors off all the competition in just under 3 minutes.

Yep he's the man. Like a jon bon Jovi charisma

loooooooooove this song
Was in highschool when this show blew up.
Voted for him then and will again anytime.

***** I saw him at Superstore a month or so ago ! He was buying pickles or something ? Anyhow hes in or was in New Glasgow Nova Scotia !

SXI96 the others in the show were no real competition and he fitted perfectly in the band as lead singer. He was by far the best choice.
Once Dave Joined him on Stage it was basically sealing the deal that JD would win.
JD where are you? Love this song!
He's on Twitter, Instagram & Patreon. He's writing, recording & still singing!
This version is the best!!!
he reminds me of scott weiland. this is the best version of the song, so much energy
Because of the megaphone?
Yea don’t ever compare him to a true rock god like weiland
God, please send a special blessing to JD Fortune! (in Jesus name).
that so rocked then. and today. thanks inxs. rip hutch
good singer
Dave Navarro married Carmen Electra....
With the house band it sounds much better - harder more energy. INXS just played it way to layed back. The Drummer in the house band hits a ton and drives the song.
shit-hot frontman...love-child of jerry lee lewis (?)...very exciting. this guy, in this mode, could incite a riot in a nunnery.
Far better than the studio version
JD!!!
The best Version
❤❤❤
Better than studio version
INXS was like, "This is it. This is the song."
The best performance of this song!... included better than version featuring INXS.
this guy damn good
He's on Twitter, Instagram, RUclips Channel & Patreon. He's writing & recording
Prettycool this
2019 🤘
AUSOME FUCKIN COMMENT JD WAS AUSOME.....JD WAS PURE MAGIC
Que plenon 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉full party😎🤠
who is the drummer?,is fantastic!
My choice from start of Rockstar INXS
JD! *sigh*
I wish they would bring this show back. Unfortunately, Tommy Lee's project of Supernova was just a flavor of the month type of deal that it never picked up, though I feel the winner that season should have been Ryan Star instead of Lucas Rossi. I could see Supernova excelling under Ryan's voice, but not with Rossi's.
JD would know.
I really like JD! it's the way he moves... dave is a total hottie too
why does dave get so much hate,can someone explain?
he is so hot.
The guy @1:13 looks ike the guy from the progressive commercials :)
This show actually was pretty cool and good idea good performances good musicianship everything about this was really cool. Too bad it never materialized into anything after this tho…
JD could of gone far if he left the drugs alone😢
13 years off that shit. x
inxs did not ruin anyone, JD is the vocalist and should be in there song writing lyrically and musically. So If anyone has the blame on it its JD, very talented vocalist though
fucking eh!!!!!
and he threw it all away
OMG dave is hot and jd has talent get off the powder
@girlsoftwo he's wearing one...
Hey it's lucifer morningstar
whats totaly sad is INXS ruined J.D. they havent even landed on the charts since then..J.D. could have done better.
because he makes people feel insecure about themselves
so...anyway.......!
REGINA BRANDNER VEGAS SUZUKI SALZBURG RING ROLAND RATZENBERGER IMOLA - RHZ
Because he is judging him by his looks.
INXS screwed Fortune.....tell people they are fired to their face...
I mean no disrespect to this guy, but imagine how much better Michael Hutchence would have done with this because it's not a bad song
Hutchey wouldn't do it any better
the only great song that they had
Then JG got sued by two “rock stars”
man I remember watching this when I was younger and me and my parents thought he was a huge dick lol
I was disappointed when he won. Though he's got like 231 followers on twitter and Marty Casey's got like over 2000, so I suppose my favorite did sort of win in the end. heh.
He's not on Twitter anymore.
Is he not? His twitter's still up. I found it from Marty Casey's twitter.
It's fake.
***** ok but why would Marty Casey be following it?
Check out jdfortune.com, he explains he went off Twitter, someone else took over that account afterwards.
I don't care for him and his style. He comes on too strong. You've got to pay your dues before you become a legend in your own mind.
Jd fortune is a con artist
Meh
This song sucks
