KYLIE Minogue is covering INXS’s sultry Need You Tonight in her new tour, which has debuted in the UK overnight.
The touching musical homage — performed in head-to-toe PVC — continues Minogue’s year of paying tribute to ex-boyfriend Michael Hutchence.
Their relationship was documented in the INXS telemovie Never Tear Us Apart earlier this year.
Minogue’s version of Need You Tonight is delivered with a sexually charged vocal in keeping with the original.
The 46-year-old Australian kicked off the Kiss Me Once world tour in Liverpool today, and these first sensational pictures from the gig prove the Erinsborough expat has still got it.

Australian fans of the pint-sized chanteuse will have to wait until March for the tour to arrive on our shores.
But these early photos suggest it will be worth the wait.

Earlier this year Minogue said she still loved Hutchence.
“A guy with that much charisma, it doesn’t just switch off, you don’t just forget about that person. I don’t know what it was like for other women in his life but my love for him remains.”

Molly Meldrum’s autobiography also touches on Minogue and Hutchence meeting at a party for the final Countdown episode in 1987.
Fans heading to the tour can expect a medley of Stock Aitken Waterman hits including Got to Be Certain, Enjoy Yourself, Hand on Your Heart and Never Too Late, as well as early hits I Should Be So Lucky and Especially For You.
She performs I Should Be So Lucky in a bath, in homage to the song’s iconic video.
The Australian leg of the tour starts in Perth in March next year.
Minogue released four unheard new songs, written with Lady Gaga collaborator Fernando Garibay as free downloads yesterday — Glow, Wait, Chasing Ghosts and Break This Heartbreak.
Kylie’s doing ‘Need You Tonight’ by INXS (as a tribute to Hutchence I assume)? V faithful to the original version. It’s great.
