Is this the INEX version?
From the appearance of the video, I cannot tell, as I wear glasses and linked videos are something I steer clear of, unless I know what I am supposed to watch.
Actually, I really wish that people would tag the videos they link, so that it is clear that one is listening to the original artist, or a cover version, or somethng else; a video by itself does not make this clear.
Right now, I'm listening to pretty much anything from Keith Urban and Little Big Town – a pretty far stretch from my normal Motley Crue, Van Halen, Def Leppard playlists. I don't know how I got on this country music kick, but I'm enjoying it.
Here's a great video of Little Big Town performing Fleetwood Mac's The Chain at the 2013 CMT Music Awards. Check out the guitar solo by Keith Urban at the 2:20 mark.

It is INXS. That is the Elegantly Wasted original art album cover, and it says INXS on it. I do sometimes tag who it is, but when it is visually and audibly blatantly obvious who it is, I don't always feel the need to. I wear glasses(tri-focal) also. I don’t get the significance.

The significance of it, is simply that, if I cannot read the link, - and, as a consequence do not recognise the artist - I am not about to click on it. Instead, I will choose to pass over the post (and the link), bespectacled eyes averted.
A single sentence informing the people who read these posts what the link is - and thus, whose music you are listening to - would be very helpful; then, the people reading these posts might wish to listen to the piece of music (and the artist) by clicking on the link in question.
Most of the YouTube video links not only have the album art but the artist name, and the title of the song. If it is not apparent, I will add a line and maybe even a little story for identification. I have been going back through the pages of this thread, and a good deal of people do not do anything but post the YouTube video because, either they don't feel the need, or the link already identifies itself if you look. Some even just post an unlinked picture of the album art without any explanation. If you feel inclined to pass my music posts, you are entitled to do so and it won't hurt my feelings. Thanks, and have a good day.
FYI: You can watch the video right in the post. You do not have to click the link that takes you to YouTube.
Example of info in video...No need for tag line.

Right Down The Line by Gerry Rafferty is a terrific song, and - to my mind - is even better than Baker Street.
I'm going old school from the early 80's:

Someone sent this to me a few weeks ago, it's great!! Boy, I really wish I could have lived back in the 60s and 70s when all this was big!
If you like this (and I do), - and thanks for the link, excellent choice - you will also probably like the music (same culture, time and place) of the (excellent) group Os Mutantes.
Some of the modern Brazilian music of this era is considered to be (or is described as) "Tropicália" music.
