Transcription

Music video

The video is a performance-style video shot in black and white, showing the writers of the song, Hutchence and Farriss, starting with part of a piano instrumental version of "Never Tear Us Apart" and seemingly "composing" the song in the studio on a piano. The video then cuts to the band recording and then performing the track to a live audience. It was directed by Richard Lowenstein and produced by Hamish "Hulk" Cameron.

B-sides

The B-sides include remixes and LP versions of previous INXS songs, that following the trend of previous Kick releases, showcase the band's previous work. The German edition of the CD single included the 12" vinyl versions of "Shine Like It Does" and "Never Tear Us Apart" from the 1988 US Tour.
