Tiny Daggers is the final track of the band’s 1987 Kick album. The record has sold well over 20 million copies and spawned 4 top 10 singles. Not bad for an album their label hated at first.
“He put his feet up on the desk and closed his eyes from the minute the record went on to the minute it finished,” Murphy said in INXS KICK: the Words, a book that accompanied the anniversary reissue of the album. “When it stopped, he said, ‘I’ll give you a million dollars to go and record another album. This is not happening, this is shit.'”

I love INXS but I haven't been listening to them for a long time. Recently the new "Euphoria" season reminded me of many great INXS's songs - "Never Tear Us Apart", "Devil Inside", "New Sensation" and my favorite "Mystify" 🔥 The one you picked - "Tiny Daggers" is new to me and it's greeeaaat! It may become my new fave, so thanks.
