"The Swing" is the 4th studio album by Australian rock band INXS, released in April 1984. It peaked at #1 on the Kent Music Report Albums Chart for five non-consecutive weeks from early April to mid-May 1984. The lead single "Original Sin" was recorded in New York City with Nile Rodgers and featured Daryl Hall on backing vocals. Overall, the album featured a slightly harder-edged sound than their previous releases. Beyond its local success, this album, as its predecessor, entered the US Top 75, reaching #52 on the Billboard 200. It also entered the Canadian Top 40, where it reached #27 on the RPM 100 Albums. In Europe, "The Swing" entered the Top 20 in France due to the big success of its single "Original Sin" which reached the French Top 5 during the summer of 1984 and the Top 40 in the Netherlands.

~Wikipedia

Consolidating the strengths of Shabooh Shoobah, The Swing is the first consistently impressive INXS album. With the Nile Rodgers-produced "Original Sin" acting as the centerpiece, The Swing retains the new wave pop sense and rock attack of their earlier albums, while adding a stronger emphasis on dance rhythms. At the same time, the group's songwriting had improved, with more than half of the album featuring memorable hooks.
