I am only 14 years old and never really knew much about INXS or Michael until i while ago. I switched on the TV and there was a INXS concert on. I later found out that there were 70,000 people in the audience. The moment i saw Michael i could tell how very special he was. The moment he started in sing i fell in love! The very next day i went out and bought their Live Baby Live album that had many of their classics on it. I listen to it everyday and absolutely adore it. It is one of my most treasured possesions. Most of the songs on the album were written by Michael and his good friend Andrew Farris. To me, this shows how timeless Michael's music really is. Even now millions of people all over the world listen and love his wonderful voice and music. Michaels tragic death brings a tear to my eye everytime i here about it. But i have found that michael will never be really gone. He is alive in his music and always will be. He was such a handsome guy and his smile melted my heart. And so even though i never knew him, Michael will always be a friend to me. Because of his ability to make me happy with his superb voice, his wonderful music and his heart warming smile.
Rest In Peace Michael. You were such a beautiful man.
With much love,
Jess

it's so strange how our mood can change from water to wine...
just a few minutes earlier I was laughting with my two cousins on the phone and now i'm just in tears reading another story about someone who met Michael.
Sounds freaky or crazy but it's still unbelievable for me until I read or see something that confirms Michael's not here anymore.

Mike,
It doesn't matter how many years it will pass or how many things will happen in my life... nothing will erase you from my heart and mind.
I can't help looking at the sky and not think about you...look at all the pictures in my wall and not miss you.

Rest in peace, be ok..wherever you are. love you :'(

I just bought my first INXS album after loving them all these years. Michael and the bands work was truly genius, and will always be adored by the world. Although INXS will never be the same without Michael, I will still continue to appreciate thier music. It was such a treat to watch Michael on MTV. He was so energetic, yet mysterious, and has the coolest voice. I am so happy that this site exists so that he can be remembered forever!!!

I know my wife left a tremedous message before but I would like to add a fewof my own thoughts, and say a proper good-bye to Michael. I am a product of the 80's and INXS'music is part of my life and my soul. I wanted to tell his father how lucky a man he was to have such a wonderful son! I was shocked to hear of Michael's death and it has taken me a long time to get over it. I love the way he lived and sang an his spirit lives on with me, everytime I play a CD or see his face. I think I have a large amount of his work as well as every INXS CD I could get my hands on. His voice his self expression filled me with a feeling of joy, its hard to put into words what his music has done to me, and done for me. I will always miss you Michael, and love you. Michael's memorial here made me cry, to look at the pictures and read as I wept. The music industry lost a marvelous talent that day back in 1997. I would like to say my good-bye's to Michael and Kelland Hutchence, and rest well you awesome souls! I will never forget you Michael nor your music and am honored to see your last performance in that little Coca_Cola Ampa Theater on the outskirts of Pittsburg PA. Your music lives on inside me and where ever I go. I will never tire of it.
God Bless you Michael and Kelland
Love Michael S.

Michael, thank you.

You gave so much to so many, and continue to do so.
To quote my grandma, “Another brilliant man has left the planet.”
Gone but not forgotten.
Love to you forever.

Thank you.

Michael what a great talent, that changed music today, from what Inxs did from the early 80's.
Michael will always be forever NOT forgotten. I can only hope his family finds peace in his eternal peace. Please let everyone remember that life must go on for the living, and Inxs should always honor Michael's memory by playing the music they created. I am sure Michael will be looking down with much pride that Inxs did not die with him. Rock on Michael and Inxs.

It took me a long time to come to terms with what happend. To be able to listen to michael's beautiful voice without feeling weepy. I still feel sad. Such a talent gone from us. They say 'the good die young', but I think it's crappy for the rest of us, who miss the REAL music. I won't be able to go to an inxs show, and hear the music, familiar beautiful songs not sang by the man who co-wrote most of them. I miss you michael 🙁 I feel sad I never got to meet you in person, I have such appreciation and love for the music you created. I cried when I found out you died. I have the greatest hits on rotation always. It's not uncommon to hear me singing along. Your voice is and will always be one of the best I've ever heard. If you could click on my myspace page, you'd see 'never tear us apart' playing on video. 🙂 Love to you always, and thank you again, for all you did to bring beautiful music to the world.

Just listening to Baby Don't Cry...one of my favourites. Will always miss you, one of the greatest rock stars who ever lived. P.S. Don't try to replace him...

It is with great respect and honor to be able to sign this guest book. I have long been an INXS fan. My husband is also a huge fan. So it simple to say that we were devestated over the death of Michae. There seems to be such a void in the music world today without his charm and presence on stage.We both had the extreme fortune to have attended two of INXS's last concerts the fall of 1997. We attended the Sept concert that year at the BEACON THEATER in NY. The concert was absolutely breath taking. Michael's presence on stage was outstanding. I can rememeger him like it was yesterday. It was the ELEGANTLY WASTED TOUR. The band was promoting the Elegantly Wasted Cd which of course was outstanding. I remember Michael coming out on stage in his black suit and red shirt and sunglasses. What a huge presence he was. Michael and the band brought the house down. He sang for what seemed like an eternity and no one wanted it to end. but sadly as all concert must it came to a close. But I will never forget that night at the Beacon Theater. But our pleasure did not end there. My oldest daughter is also an INXS fan but could not get to go that night. So we did the next best thing. We purchased tickets for their final performance of their tour in the Coca Cola theater in Pennsylvania. We drove all day to get there the day of the concert. I was so exciting to be seeing Michael with INXS again two weeks later after out experience at the Beacon Theater in NY.It was an outdoor theater and the night was clear and cool. Michael appeared on stage after the band memebers had taken their places. Michael rocked and sang for what seemed like an eternity. I didn't care. Michael could sign all night long. It was magical. I guess since this was the last concert date for the American tour Michael and the band didn't care how long they performed. Did Michael have a premontion that he would never be back. I don't know but the night was the best concert ever. I will never forget those two concerts. My daughter was able to purchase the soundtrack from that concert. I don't know where she got it but my husband and I play that cd and all the INXS cds all the time. I know that time heals all things but when we play INXS and hear Michael we know that no one will take his place. We know and respect that INXS needs to move on and make music again but there choice of a singer appears to be someone who is trying to be Michael and that will never happen. We will always have Michael in our hearts and his songs and music will always be playing somewhere in our lives.

We love and miss you MICHAEL

I hope you have found peace.

Carol and Michael Shakarian

Michael,
You were a bright and shining star that burned out all too soon.
The world of music misses you dearly. Rest in peace brother.

INXS is one of the top bands from my 80's era. Granted they were not metal, they werent't quite dance, they were their own identity. If you heard an INXS song on the radio you knew right away it was INXS. A large part of that identity was Michael. His vocals were smooth as butter and he was just a natural for this band. Live he was simply amazing! I cried the day I heard he passed on and still don't understand why we lost such a loved and dearly talented man. He will never be forgotten,

I was a teenager when INXS hit the charts, and my strongest memory is of Michaels face on the video clip of “Need you tonight”. He took my breath away.
His voice will sing forever on disc, and in our hearts...

I rembember working for an airline american eagle 18 seats max and the passengers had to board from the outside, What a surprise I had when I was told inxs chartered one of our plaens,how nervous I was a ramp agent at the time greeting the passengers and loading the nose of the aircraft with carryon bags, and then wow here is the band ,I mean the whole band and were they nice or what! very very nice and it was a cold day and I had a pink scarf on covering my head and was told “how cute I looked” I was just in awe and more so on how very very nice the whole band was, Ive carried this great memorie for the past 15 years and just needed to let anyone out there know that I treasure that meeting daily, and may michael be blessed by all.
