In 1990, INXS released their 7th album, X, and this song, Suicide Blonde, was the first single off the album. It reached the top 10 in the U.S. The song was actually written about Michael Hutchense’s girlfriend at the time, Kylie Minogue. She was required to dye her hair platinum blonde for a role in the movie, The Delinquents, and was quoted by Hutchence in an interview in ’89 as saying “I’m going suicide blonde today”.
