"Black and White" is the tenth single by Australian rock group INXS,[2] [3] and the fourth and final one issued from their third studio album Shabooh Shoobah.[4] [5] The single was released in June 1983 by WEA. The song is a throwback to INXS's quicker-tempo new wave style; "Black and White" peaked at the 24th place in the ARIA Charts.[6]
The single also contains two songs: "Long in Tooth" written by Andrew Farriss and "Any Day but Sunday" written by Tim Farriss. Both tracks were recorded in Emerald City Studios. "Any Day but Sunday" appeared on the soundtrack for the 1984 film No Small Affair, starring Demi Moore and Jon Cryer.[7]
