Hallucinate, desegregate Mediate, alleviate Try not to hate, love your mate Don't suffocate on your own hate Designate your love as fate

Lyrics:

Come over here

All you've got is this moment

Twenty-first century's yesterday

You can care all you want

Everybody does, yeah, that's okay

So slide over here and give me a moment

Your moves are so raw, I've got to let you know

I've got to let you know

You're one of my kind

I need you tonight

'Cause I'm not sleepin'

There's somethin' about you, girl

That makes me sweat

How do you feel? I'm lonely

What do you think? Can't think at all

What you gonna do? Gonna live my life

So slide over here and give me a moment

Your moves are so raw, I've got to let you know

I've got to let you know

You're one of my kind

I need you tonight

'Cause I'm not sleepin'

There's somethin' about you, girl

That makes me sweat

So how do you feel? I'm lonely

What do you think? Can't think at all

What you gonna do? Gonna live my life

How do you feel? I'm lonely

What do you think? Can't think at all

What you gonna do? Gonna live my life

Songwriter:

So slide over here and give me a moment

Your moves are so raw, I've got to let you know

I've got to let you know

So slide over here and give me a moment

I've got to let you know, I've got to let you know

You're one of my kind

SongFacts:

'Need You Tonight' is a 1987 INXS song written by Michael Hutchence and Andrew Farriss. It appeared on the album 'Kick'.

In the band's official autobiography, INXS, Andrew Farriss said that he had the song's guitar riff in his head as he waited for a taxi to take him to the airport. Upon arrival, Farris asked him to wait a few minutes to get something from the motel. Farris taped the song and made the cab driver wait an hour. Michael Hutchence later wrote the lyrics for the song.

The sounds of the song are reminiscent of electronic music. Sequencers are combined with drum machines and funk-oriented guitar riffs. Directed by Richard Lowenstein, the music video for Need You Tonight won five MTV Video Music Awards in 1988, including Video of The Year.
