Although appearing on international charts No.52 on United StatesBillboard200, and No.27 on the CanadianRPM100 Albums INXS wanted to improve their worldwide impact. After recording their last album in New York andOxfordshire, they returned to Sydney where they worked withChris Thomas(Sex Pistols,Pretenders,Roxy Music,Elton John) producing at Rhinoceros Studios. Listen Like Thieveswas recorded over a three-month period at the Rhinoceros studio inSydney,NSW,Australia. Many of the album's songs were written by the song writing duo of Hutchence and Andrew Farriss. As production came close to completion, Thomas told the band that the album was lacking a crucial hit single, so the band members left the studio having just a few days to come up with one last song. Chris Thomas told us there was still no 'hit'", Farriss later recalled. "We left the studio that night knowing we had one day left and we had to deliver a 'hit'. Talk about pressure." Both Hutchence and Farriss searched through the demos that Farriss had composed throughout the album's production. Out of the remaining demos, Thomas persuaded the duo to focus on one particular demo titled "Funk Song no 13". "It was great. I thought, 'I could listen to that groove for 10 minutes!' I said, 'Let's work with that groove'", said Thomas. INXS spent the next two days working on the demo track, which would eventually turn out to be the hit single "What You Need", giving the band their first top 5 hit in the U.S. Item has been cleaned and tested.
