------------------------
\"Mystify\" is a song by Australian rock band INXS, and is the fifth (and last) single from their 1987 album Kick.
The song was written by Andrew Farriss and Michael Hutchence as part of the first sessions for Kick.
It was first previewed to Australian audiences on the Australian Made tour in January 1987.
B-sides
The B-sides include remixes and LP versions of previous INXS songs, that following the trend of previous Kick releases, showcase the band's previous work.
The German edition of the CD single included the 12\" vinyl versions of \"Shine Like It Does\" and \"Never Tear Us Apart\" from the 1988 US Tour.
Music video
The video is a performance-style video shot in black and white, showing the writers of the song, Hutchence and Farriss, seemingly \"composing\" the song in the studio on a piano.
The video then cuts to the band recording and then performing the track to a live audience.
It was produced by Hamish \"Hulk\" Cameron.
Cover versions
German DJ Mellow Trax released a remixed version of \"Mystify\" across Europe in 2003.
His version peaked at no. 74 in Germany.
A French-language version of \"Mystify\" was released in 2010 on the album Original Sin, featuring John Mayer and Loane.
