"Bitter Tears" was a single by INXS, the third Australian and fourth UK single taken from their album X. It peaked at #30 on the UK Singles Chart improving on the disappointing performance of the previous single, "By My Side". The single was released to coincide with the band headlining the SummerXS concert at Wembley Stadium in July 1991, as documented in the Live Baby Live DVD.
The song was written by Andrew Farriss and Michael Hutchence as part of the sessions for the X album.
The B-sides are a live version of "Faith In Each Other" from the X album, "The Other Side", written and performed by guitarist & saxophonist Kirk Pengilly and "Soothe Me" written and performed by guitarist & keyboard player Andrew Farriss.
