In February 2014, after the Channel 7 screening of the INXS: Never Tear Us Apart mini-series, "Need You Tonight" charted again in Australia via download sales.

[4] In January 2018, as part of Triple M's "Ozzest 100", the 'most Australian' songs of all time, "Need You Tonight" was ranked number 69.

Directed by Richard Lowenstein, the video was actually "Need You Tonight / Mediate", as it combined two songs from the album.

Lowenstein claimed that the particular visual effects in "Need You Tonight" were created by cutting up 35mm film and photocopying the individual frames, before re-layering those images over the original footage.

Rogue Traders covered and remixed "Need You Tonight" and released it as a single in Australia.

[citation needed] The music video is set in a dance party where the lizard on the single cover wanders around looking for a girl of his kind.
