I search for these episodes for years never did youtube bring me to your posts. So glad I found them I miss Michael. I send a message was my intro to INXS just mind blowing a fan for life❤❤❤❤
I love youtube. Makes me see things I would never see in my life, I live in a little country, Uruguay and we miss a lot of things I would like so much to see. I was young in the 80s and I loved INXS but I never knew who the members were because that wasn't said in my country, we just listened to the radio and danced in the pubs. So thanks youtube for letting me see this jewel.
Her version of The Man Who Sold The World was chilling. It's a shame that when she got her second chance on The Voice years later that she didn't bring the same level of excellence that she did in 2005 to Rockstar. One of the best female voices I've ever heard.
Watch the second lot of this series with ‘Supernova’ …..Tommy Lee etc it’s superb. Some of the best music I’ve ever heard on a TV show…and some of the singers are pretty good too….and yet….looking them up now… But the band….brilliant.
I remember watching this show as a younger teenager, it’s how I discovered INXS. They’re one of my all-time favorite bands to this day. Thank you for uploading these episodes!!!
I didn’t miss a minute of this show when it came out and I still follow Jordis today. I recently asked my husband if he had ever seen it and I was crushed when he hadn’t even HEARD of it lol. And then I started searching and couldn’t find it anywhere and thought it would only exist in my memories. He suggested I look here and…well, I cried happy tears. Thank you for giving me the chance to revisit this time in my life and also share it with my husband. You rock 🤘
And it’s been up for years, BTW. I have a whole playlist of all the eps. Supernova is on here as well if you watched it. Hands down one of my fav channels.
I loved this show. It was leaps and bounds above the "Idols" and all the other pop crap. Real rock songs, a real rock band (including the awesome stage band), and rock performers. Thanks to whoever uploaded these shows. Rock Star was to university as American Idol was (is) to elementary school. I just wish they could produce another one...
Loved everything about this show! I remember watching it as a kid with my family. Definitely got me hooked on the music, changed my life in fact! Such amazing talent! THANK YOU IMMENSELY FOR POSTING EVERY EPISODE! 🖤
I was such a HUGE fan of this show and Jordis and Mig and Ty Taylor. Imagine my surprise when I found the entire series! My house has been rocking all morning lol thank you so so much!
the backing band through the whole series was brilliant...you could really feel the beat...idol shows backing is seriously second rate compared to this...agree drummer is awesome.
@@bmac63 Agreed, the backing band was so tight, they were really great! So professional and perfect every performance, as good as the singers were, that band deserves much more credit, everything from the arrangements, orchestra, choir singers, backing band, and sound engineer were top notch, a pleasure to listen to
INXS is still one of my alltime favorite bands, thanks Nikki for posting these fab episodes. I worked nights when they originally aired and never got a chance to see the series. H&K's xoxo
He didn't resemble Corey from Living Colour for no reason. His whole shtick was just that. He probably sang that song with his previous bands a million times. He did have a good voice, though. I initially thought he would have made it further than he did.
Thank you! Loved this series. Wish they had done it for more than 2 seasons. SOOO much better than Idol! And it led me to my favorite band, Lovehammers (Marty Casey's band). They have a great new CD out called Set Fire - their best music so far!
I would've loved this show as a kid, wanting to be a rock star and all. Plus all the friends you make at that kickass mansion, it looks like a family! Also Dave Navarro is a DISH!
the problem with this series opposed to Supernova is this group was replacing a beloved Singer Supernova was a totally new thing those guys did not have a shadow over them like these guys did. Michael is not replaceable
Supernova was going to be the same thing to the last minute......It was supposed to be for Van Halen, they bailed. It was also talked about that maybe Queen would do. So at the last minute they had to change it to what it was. For better or worse.
i love how they were still hanging out, singing and having fun together, setting aside the fact that they compete with each other. If these were rappers...
I agree with HYlynM this show was a whole lot better than idol. Also in my view I found these judges were more patient with their contestants than those idol judges.
10 years ago! And I’m still watching. I bet I watch once a year. CBS really missed an opportunity here with the house band - there should’ve definitely been more than just 2 seasons.
Ty got high ranks in my book. He bitch slapped African American musical stereotypes. Ty was not an R and B Michael Jackson, Prince or Motown clone. Ty performed to a far different audience then his expected demographic. He not only did it, he did the job with style. I gotta respect that. True guts.
David Huber Ty was an identical clone of Corey Glover from Living Colour who was one of the first to bitch slap African American male stereotypes, that's why Ty sang cult of personality, Living Colour trail blazed the way for African American rock performers like the singers of Sevendust and The Urge
Leave it to a TV jagoff to turn Mike's death commercial. He was on the same level as John Bonham and the Faris brothers should have just brought INXS to a close. Change the name and begin again. Am I right?
There is just no replacing him. Plain and simple. Hence the collapse eventually after they picked JD. I feel like they could have found a new singer without making a reality show about it. Feels like a joke and cheap.
Loved this show - thanks for uploading the episodes. If Mig had of won - i truly believe this band would have become the biggest again and would still be going!
Thank you for uploading the entire series! I loved this show when it aired. I watched it with my husband and best friend. I couldn't miss an episode. I waited for the next week to see what happens. It made a huge impact on my life.
I love how Dave is acting like his "audition" for RHCP was so stressful. He had just come from playing in a huge and recently broken band(Jane's Addiction) and I'm sure he had an idea that he wouldn't be jobless for long, whether he got that gig or not. His experience is a far cry from these people who are for better or worse, relatively unknown, at that moment...😆🤔
I know they wanted a level playing field and what not for these shows, but why did they bother having Women on them trying to lead INXS or Supernova? Anyone with a brain in their head knew there was no chance on earth a Woman was gonna be picked to win lol. And I think realistically, Marty Casey should've won this thing. But JD was very good too. Overall though, I enjoyed Supernova more than INXS version of the show. But I am gonna begin rewatching this INXS version for the first time in 11 years... Here we go!. Thanks for uploading these.
All of us women who know the least about this rock industry already knew there was no chance that a woman would win, but don't forget this is a TV show on an international network, and they needed to draw the attention of female viewers. It is a mathematical FACT (I know because I worked on TV) these type of singing reality shows are watched mostly by women, that admire the male rockers, cheer for the female singers they like and bitch about the ones they're envious of. If you analyze all singing TV shows, hot females are always kicked out. Why? Because like I said, women represent the majority of the target audience. So from the perspective of the producers, for the sake of the commercial appeal of the show, they HAD to include women even if they were never going to win.
I would love to have the HD versions of this... had them but PC crashed. I don't know if JD was the choice (winner) before they even started but he is sure skilled at manipulating people. Marty would have been a better choice but trying to "fit in" to INXS's ideas of what they wanted for a lead singer made him change who he was and his performance style (not for the better). Ty Taylor has a KILLER voice! My favorite was always Suzie McNeil! She is amazing, with a great voice and personality. See what she is doing now! As far as Rock Star Supernova??? That was just BS from the start. A few good singers but the premise was wrong. 3 musicians who had never played together as a band, being billed as the Greatest New Rock Band (or some such sh1t), playing boring a$$ old style rock and roll that would NEVER appeal to a new and younger crowd. Not surprised this venture Crashed and Burned before it ever got started. And Lukas was just a joke. In fact there were more crap singers in Supernova than in INXS.
I miss this show and I wonder where most of the artist are from it?Except JD always thought his voice wasn't that great and never understood why they picked him.
I always felt it was a bit tacky getting a new singer this way but I can see the upside as well eg it gave them a publicity boost and because people voted for the new singer it gave a lot of people a sense of buy in with the new singer. Plus they had tried with Jon Stevens who is a great singer but the crowds they were looking for just didn't come. Whatever they did it was always going to be hard replacing Michael. Not that he could really be replaced.
I HAVE THE DVD haha, its not too bad actually its got unseen footage. But they don't have that many performances, and the ones they do are from the top 6, and I like deannas stuff, so I weren't too happy about that. Anyway your welcome lol
Man.. I dunno about this series. It's just way too polished. When 'Kick' broke I was 13yo.. it was such a special & unique vibe given the glam rock going at the time. I'm not sure rock has much more to give and maybe it's time to leave it in the past. Enjoy and appreciates it obviously but let's not try to replicate it. There's so much interesting stuff happening these days. I'm astonished sometimes how good present day sounds are.
![16x9 | J.D. Fortune: From rock star to homeless [Part 1]](/img/n.gif)
Watching this back, I still think this is better than the current American Idol.
Def and the show should be brought back!
Best show EVER!!!!🔥🔥🔥

Greeting s from Australia 🌞 I loved this show aswell . Lovely to hear from someone so far away . Now the you are in the INXS fan club 💐
Aquí en Uruguay lo pasaban por Much music o MTV no recuerdo bien...pero era fantástico este programa...lástima que no podamos tenerlo en mejor calidad
Hola! Soy de Argentina, se acuerdan dónde pasaban este programa? Aquí conocí Inxs y me enamoré
Hola, soy Ricardo Pastrana Uruguayo ,soy INXS DEPENDIENTE. Donde estas!!!!!!!??????!!!

It's late 2019 and I remember Jordis like it was yesterday. She's phenomenal.
She’s the one that I always remembered too.
Her version of The Man Who Sold The World was chilling. It's a shame that when she got her second chance on The Voice years later that she didn't bring the same level of excellence that she did in 2005 to Rockstar. One of the best female voices I've ever heard.
Dilana from Rockstar Supernova always stands out in my mind.
The house band MADE this show
They have been The Voice houseband since it started.
They ROCK
Watch the second lot of this series with ‘Supernova’ …..Tommy Lee etc it’s superb.
Some of the best music I’ve ever heard on a TV show…and some of the singers are pretty good too….and yet….looking them up now…
But the band….brilliant.
No one can replace Michael Hutchence. He was INXS. RIP MICHAEL 💖
My thoughts exactly. INXS were crazy for doing this…
Agreed 100% but the band was not just Michael. And they are all super talented and deserved to try to move forward. But Michael was something else....
I remember watching this show as a younger teenager, it’s how I discovered INXS. They’re one of my all-time favorite bands to this day. Thank you for uploading these episodes!!!
Remember coming home after work and looking forward to watching this show. Like a mini concert each time. Good times.
I didn’t miss a minute of this show when it came out and I still follow Jordis today. I recently asked my husband if he had ever seen it and I was crushed when he hadn’t even HEARD of it lol. And then I started searching and couldn’t find it anywhere and thought it would only exist in my memories. He suggested I look here and…well, I cried happy tears.

I agree!!!
They did, with "Rock Star: Supernova" in 2006.
Loved everything about this show! I remember watching it as a kid with my family. Definitely got me hooked on the music, changed my life in fact! Such amazing talent! THANK YOU IMMENSELY FOR POSTING EVERY EPISODE! 🖤
What a treat watching this again. Everything about this show was great. Especially the house band. Awesome!
THE BEST reality show ever 👍👍
I was such a HUGE fan of this show and Jordis and Mig and Ty Taylor. Imagine my surprise when I found the entire series! My house has been rocking all morning lol thank you so so much!
Just discovered these episodes today. I'm one super duper happy camper!
I remember being a kid watching this show. Glad to revisit this
LOVED everything about that show, my husband and | didn't miss a single episode.
I forgot how awesome the house drummer was for this show. He was just so fun to watch and listen to
Nate Morton i believe.
the backing band through the whole series was brilliant...you could really feel the beat...idol shows backing is seriously second rate compared to this...agree drummer is awesome.
@@bmac63 Agreed, the backing band was so tight, they were really great!

On another note, Jordis auditioned for the Voice a couple years ago!
INXS is still one of my alltime favorite bands, thanks Nikki for posting these fab episodes. I worked nights when they originally aired and never got a chance to see the series. H&K's xoxo
Holy sweet bejezus. You rock so hard for uploading these it's ridiculous.
Ty Taylors rendition of Cult of Personality was class
Absolutely brilliant, he just nailed that song and his voice is incredible too!
He didn't resemble Corey from Living Colour for no reason. His whole shtick was just that. He probably sang that song with his previous bands a million times.
He did have a good voice, though. I initially thought he would have made it further than he did.
Thank you! Loved this series. Wish they had done it for more than 2 seasons. SOOO much better than Idol! And it led me to my favorite band, Lovehammers (Marty Casey's band). They have a great new CD out called Set Fire - their best music so far!
I loved this show!!!
I still watch this, they're all awesome!
Not a problem, this series got me into INXS, I can always re watch them :)
I would've loved this show as a kid, wanting to be a rock star and all. Plus all the friends you make at that kickass mansion, it looks like a family! Also Dave Navarro is a DISH!
Thanks for posting all the episodes. I loved this show !!!!
One of the best comedy shows ever released!
It reminds me of The Joe Schmoe Show! :-D
I thought I should return here a day later and say that I'm really enjoying it! Really like TY.....he's the real deal! Freddie Mercury on steroids!
😂😂 I agree with you..
Awesome video, this show is one of my motivation to became a rockstar
A great series. Loved it
I just can't imagine, Michael liking this..I see him laughing from above😆
Finally, someone said it!!!!
Thank you so mush for posting all of the entire episodes.. I have been dying to watch this show again!! I love you!! Muahhhhh!
can I have a Kiss to, please!
MUAHHHH!!
Thank you, for the kiss
I was JUST about to buy the DVD, this is soooo much better, Thanks you!!
I turned 12 in 1983 when I first heard INXS. When this show aired, I was in disbelief but watched it just to see what would happen.
I’m so happy this has Dave Navarro
Thanks so much for this! You're my new best friend!
Aerials old guitarist here. She rocks! Hope everyone on here is well and still rockin
the problem with this series opposed to Supernova is this group was replacing a beloved Singer Supernova was a totally new thing those guys did not have a shadow over them like these guys did. Michael is not replaceable
Supernova was intended to a vanity project for certain members of the band and when it did not come off well they did not care.
Supernova was going to be the same thing to the last minute......It was supposed to be for Van Halen, they bailed. It was also talked about that maybe Queen would do. So at the last minute they had to change it to what it was. For better or worse.
Love this show
@@SXI96 good he needs too. Special girls deserve it
AWESOME to see this again!! Thanks!!
I love you for publishing this :)
I'd forgotten how funny JD was in this first performance, lol. He went a bit "over the top" --
i love how they were still hanging out, singing and having fun together, setting aside the fact that they compete with each other.
If these were rappers...
Kinda like church ⛪...
but with alcohol, LOL. 🍷🍹🍻
I agree with HYlynM this show was a whole lot better than idol. Also in my view I found these judges were more patient with their contestants than those idol judges.
So bloody sad that this amazing band lost Michael. They kick arse! So sad the first time I was gonna see them was after Michael died😢.
Too many people told Neal he was cute growing up
lilnikki457 I think I love you...no, I know I do. You have every single one! Thank you!!
10 years ago! And I’m still watching. I bet I watch once a year. CBS really missed an opportunity here with the house band - there should’ve definitely been more than just 2 seasons.
Thank you so much for this!
JD....The voice!!!
i agree, those killer vocals
Ty got high ranks in my book. He bitch slapped African American musical stereotypes. Ty was not an R and B Michael Jackson, Prince or Motown clone. Ty performed to a far different audience then his expected demographic. He not only did it, he did the job with style. I gotta respect that. True guts.
David Huber Check out Vintage Trouble his new group
David Huber Ty was an identical clone of Corey Glover from Living Colour who was one of the first to bitch slap African American male stereotypes, that's why Ty sang cult of personality, Living Colour trail blazed the way for African American rock performers like the singers of Sevendust and The Urge
If you listen closely, you can hear Michael Hutchence spinning in his grave.
RedLightMax 🤣😂😂😂🤣
Nope, don't hear it.
Ty has his own successful band now called Vintage Trouble
Leave it to a TV jagoff to turn Mike's death commercial. He was on the same level as John Bonham and the Faris brothers should have just brought INXS to a close. Change the name and begin again. Am I right?
J.D crossed a line.....3 months later
Jd was so awesome when he spanked thaatttt aaaaaassssd
very nice
I think I heard Michael Hutchence laugh when this series was released. 🤦🏽♀️
There is just no replacing him. Plain and simple. Hence the collapse eventually after they picked JD. I feel like they could have found a new singer without making a reality show about it. Feels like a joke and cheap.
i love the show
Loved this show - thanks for uploading the episodes. If Mig had of won - i truly believe this band would have become the biggest again and would still be going!
lilnikki45 you are a god!! thanks for uploading!!
Thank you for uploading the entire series! I loved this show when it aired. I watched it with my husband and best friend. I couldn't miss an episode. I waited for the next week to see what happens. It made a huge impact on my life.
Tim is just as beautiful as he ever was! Jon is still hot! Andrew's talent is beyond amazing. He's a musical genius.
God, I miss this
haha, no worries :) Enjoy
Apparently Hutchens died of autoerotic asphyxiation (i.e., cutting off your own oxygen while having an orgasm.) Not suicide.
Love you all
I love how Dave is acting like his "audition" for RHCP was so stressful. He had just come from playing in a huge and recently broken band(Jane's Addiction) and I'm sure he had an idea that he wouldn't be jobless for long, whether he got that gig or not.

Participants of Season 1 seem to be more natural rockers compared to those in Season 2, with the exception of Dilana.
Just figured out that the shows CD, A Night at the Mayan Theatre, is basically just all these pre-op shows
She's having a 👶 baby. 22:50. ( cool movie by the way ) i was uncomfortable watching!
EXCELENTE
cool
Check out Marty's latest single with his band Lovehammers! A live video of Price I Pay from Set Fire cd. Just uploaded to TH-cam today.
donde puedo verlo subtitulado?? alguien sabe si hay web para verlo
not a problem :)

I enjoyed both shows when they aired, but looking back nowadays I think I enjoyed the performances on the INXS show much better. MUCH better!
Except for Zayra Alvarez! I thought she was pure awesome! LOL

JD was horrible. Then he started using drugs or something and they had to fire him. I never thought he should have won. I would have chosen Ty or Mig!
Mig---nice---and I DO mean nice GUNS.
it's like being at church, but with alcohol...
Thank u Man. Anyway you have the other Rockstar? i mean Supernova?
I miss this show and I wonder where most of the artist are from it?Except JD always thought his voice wasn't that great and never understood why they picked him.
Donde lo pasaban a este show?? Lo vi cuando era adolescente
I always felt it was a bit tacky getting a new singer this way but I can see the upside as well eg it gave them a publicity boost and because people voted for the new singer it gave a lot of people a sense of buy in with the new singer.

Yeahhh , you really got me a tissue ? To blow Mr nose ?
You didn't feel the lyrics, I didn't feel the facial expressions ?
:) No problem
Auditioning for inxs.. let’s all do classic rock and grunge karaoke 😂
Where is Storm Large? She was on this season.
Stormy was on rockstar supernova :)
I could swear she was on that season. But yes, upon looking it up, I see the error of my ways.
I love her song Ladylike... she was my favorite
At 30:35 I am like…we'll dude looks like you will be sleeping in your car a little longer…WOW…What the heck was that
22:50 was way worse... What's with that shirt anyway, looks like she's naked and she has really hairy tits.
when the people first arrive at the house they should just tell em ,"alright! yall ready to start the ass kissing!" whoop there it is.
There was no chance they would choose a women lol
Ohh. Wooeeee. Ohh yeaahhh. Oohhh yeaahhhhh. I DON'T THINK SO. !!! Jord ?
this is so unrock`n`roll….
girl i got you
Ty Taylor was robbed. He's an incredible performer and has an awesome voice.
sometimes the ones who dont win a reality show do better than the winners
Leslie J Oberg, Ty Taylor has his own band called Vintage Trouble. Check them out. They are great!!!!!!
