INXS (pronounced "In Excess") is an Australian rock group. The band formed in 1977 under the name The Farris Brothers. Original members included Australian Michael Hutchence(lead vocals), Andrew Farriss (guitar and keyboards), Tim Farriss (lead guitar), Jon Farriss (drums), Garry Beers (bass), and Kirk Pengilly (saxophone and guitar). The band changed their name to INXS just prior to the release of their self-titled début album in 1980. The band's second album, Underneath the Colours released in Australia in 1981, included the minor hit with "Stay Young." The success of this album helped the band gain momentum and notoriety for the world-wide release of their third album, Shabooh Shoobah in 1982.

Fair Weather Ahead Lyrics

INXS

Theres this place full of mountain heads
Living and chewing upon the fat
Built upon the hazy plan
Like foundations slipping through the sand
Long teeth and whiskers like a rat
Fearing only those present
They got zero emotion
And everybodys fed up with that
Warm outside but very cold within
Followed and praised for many years
They got all the promotions
Isnt that the way its always been
Historys written always red
Its pages are painful and clear
Its so full of devotion
Makes you wonder where it could have led
Put the lights out
Fair weather ahead
These strange new creatures
They wont be led
