new sensation...

i bow down to the world of reality television and all that is mark burnett; the man has done it once again... if you have not taken a moment to watch rock star INXS then you, my friends, are missing out... i've never really been one to adore the world of intrusive, scripted and often addictive reality tv, other than my slight obsession with america's next top model and the amazing race... after recently overcoming a frightening bout of american idol syndrome, i am now in full recovery mode with these new found musical strangers...
they are all gorgeous in their own alternative ways, each and every one has unbelievable vocal chords and instead of turning to the catalogues of lionel richie and edwin mccain they look toward the mamas and the papas, the eagles, CCR, pat benatar and other rock n' roll favs for song choices... it also doesn't hurt that dave navarro looks stunning in a sparkly scarf as one of the hosts and the ol' boys of INXS wiggle in their seats to each impeccable performance... my favs are:

neal - channeling mick jagger, performing without his shirt, somewhat of a richard ashcroft in looks, oozing dirty rock style... he's got the awkward rock wiggle while clutching a mic to a tee...
j.d fortune- gorgeous, blew away the crowd with his rendition of california dreamin', from oakville ontario... could use a few dance lessons though...
jordis - rockin' a beautiful dread-head, huge voice for a little girl, attitude and the ultimate rock star persona... those tats are epic!
mig - yummy... australian after my own heart... really i have no input on his vocals, this is strictly a heartthrob kind of thing...
ty- mohawk, ripped bod, great pipes both physically and vocally... he's like lenny kravitz and seal all wrapped up and ready to explode...

michael hutchence would be proud...
