When Inxs would complete their 1997 album, "Elegantly Wasted" no one would expect that this would be essentially the final studio album by the Australian Band.
While "Elegantly Wasted" is a good album, it unfortunately isn't the album that would be that super comeback album.
Elegantly Wasted is truly one of the best albums INXS put out, easily their best since Kick.

 Elegantly Wasted (INXS) Easter Egg : "Better Than Oasis"
When they took the stage, one of the Gallagher brothers went spouting off on a rant about how Oasis was the best band in the world, and that they were personally offended to have their award presented by such "has-beens" as INXS.
As a personal stab at the self-righteous egotists, the guys of INXS took turns altering the lyrics to the song "Elegantly Wasted".
If one listens closely during the chorus, it is possible to (occasionally) hear one of the seven of them sing "better than Oasis" instead of "elegantly wasted".

Elegantly Wasted is, in my opinion, almost worse than Full Moon, Dirty Hearts.
There are the gems Show Me (Cherry Baby) and Elegantly Wasted, the title track, but the album quickly runs out of gas, runs together, and seems uniformly tepid, like lukewarm water.
The music on Elegantly Wasted doesn't sound like the music they recorded for Kick, but the album is still unmistakably INXS.

 INXS' newest more than 'Elegantly' average
Their label move is an important one to note, as since joining up with Mercury, INXS has either suddenly had some major surges in their creativity or else they've been holding out on us for the past five years.
On the whole, Elegantly Wasted is the best thing the band has put out since Welcome to Wherever You Are, but considering since 1993, the band has only released one studio album, flaunting the fact that the best thing they've done in years really isn't that big of a deal.
INXS always evenly balances its albums with a nice blend of rocking tunes that are primed for a loud club, and the plodding ballad or two.

 Arts Music Bands and Artists I INXS Reviews Elegantly Wasted
AMG All Music Guide: Elegantly Wasted - Stephen Thomas Erlewine's review: "The band does dabble in contemporary dance on Elegantly Wasted, but it all comes out sounding like the lite funk-n-roll of Kick, only without the energy.
NME: Elegantly Wasted - Roger Morton's review: "a decent old-skool dance-rock record haunted by the covers-band culture of its country of origin..." Rating: 6/10.
Rolling Stone: Elegantly Wasted - Elysa Gardner's review: "10 years after "Need You Tonight" hit the top of the charts, the sinuous dance grooves and crackling bursts of guitar in new songs such as "Elegantly Wasted" and "Don't Lose Your Head" don't seem very fresh." 2 stars.

 LORD BYGON - "Elegantly Wasted"
Dovendo dare un titolo a 'sta roba, la prima cosa che mi venne in mente fu "Elegantly Wasted", e giuro che non avevo idea che un pezzo con questo titolo esistesse già (e per altro, a tutt'oggi non ho nemmeno mai sentito in vita mia l'altra "Elegantly Wasted"...).
I was travelling on a train, and since I didn't have any pen and paper, I was forced to hum this melody until I arrived home and I wrote down the whole score.
The first title I thought about was "Elegantly Wasted" - but I swear I didn't know that a famous song with the same title already existed (and to be truthful I've never heard it)!

 I Elegantly Wasted Albums, CDs, Vinyl Records and LPs
In contrast, Elegantly Wasted, the latest offering from those aging Aussie pinup boys in INXS, seems like an exercise in nostalgia.
INXS haven't lost their flair for making sexy, streamlined funk-rock confections, but 10 years after "Need You Tonight" hit the top of the charts, the sinuous dance grooves and crackling bursts of guitar in new songs such as "Elegantly Wasted" and "Don't Lose Your Head" don't seem very fresh.
Elsewhere, INXS dabble in neopsychedelic melodrama ("Thrown Together," "Give It Up (She Is Rising)"), only proving that '80s pop stars can be just as adept as their progeny at ripping off sounds from the pre-MTV era.

 ABC Arts Online - Out of Sight
This photograph of Michael Hutchence was taken by Harry Borden on the balcony of a suite at the Le Relais Carre d'Or in Paris in March 1997.
INXS were promoting the comeback album 'Elegantly Wasted' and Borden was sent by Observer Life magazine to spend a week with Hutchence and shoot the images for an article to be written about the band.
Borden recalls that Hutchence "worked hard at being a rock star from the beginning of the day at breakfast till the last hours at a night club - he always looked immaculate...

During that time, Hutchence was involved in several tabloid scandals, most notably his love affair with British TV personality Paula Yates (which brought an end to her marriage to Bob Geldof), and he hinted that he was recording a solo album.
That record didn't materialize, but INXS returned in the spring of 1997 with Elegantly Wasted.
Though Terence Trent D'Arby took the frontman role for an abbreviated set at the opening of Sydney's Stadium Australia in 1999, Jon Stephens filled the spot for occasional gigs that took place through the end of 2003.

 Elegantly Wasted | The Onion - America's Finest News Source   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
INXS is often likened to a poor man's U2—the Australian band has always sounded sort of like U2 might if it cared about sex and glamour rather than love and war—but INXS lacks U2's well-publicized ability to evolve as the times change.
Consequently, Elegantly Wasted sounds less like a comeback than an underwhelming nostalgia trip.

 Elegantly Wasted Or Such A Waste?
When I heard, in 1997, that the INXS new album was called Elegantly Wasted I was a bit miffed.
To me, that phrase was so deeply connected with Keith Richards I couldn’t forgive this upstart Australian band for using it.
When Michael Hutchence committed suicide in November of that year I started to think the term might apply to Michael as much as it did to Keith.

It all started in 1997 after seeing on MTV "Elegantly Wasted", a video that was on high-rotation at that time and which kept me glued to the TV every time it was played!!!
But it wasn't until after their Kick album that they really struck a chord within me. As the boys of the band are somewhat younger than I and of the same gender, I still cannot get enough of their magic sound of that special era.
