It is nearly 5 years since Michael left this planet for a better place, (we hope) and this is the first time I have sat down to read this website. I have known it existed since it was born, only I havn't been able to put myself through the pain of admitting that he really is gone, (from us at least.) When I was 8 years old (I am now 31) I told my sister that I was going to be the one to marry Michael! Unfortunately for me that didn't happen, and much to my delight nobody else got the chance either!!
My sister and I saw all of INXS' shows when they came to our locality, and each time we would both joke about which one of us would be taking Michael home afterwards!
The closest I ever came to it was at a concert in 1984/5 when I swear he looked directly at me from up on stage!! I was to find out later that Michael was severly short sighted and probably didn't even see me!! My fantasy was shattered.
When I heard the news of the tragic passing of 'My Rock God' I turned the television off and went into denial.
I have purchased all of INXS' albums and also Michael's solo album, and I listen to them frequently with the volume up just high enough so I don't blow my speakers, in an attempt to let Michael hear it too.(Are there stereos in heaven?)
So for the first time in almost 5 years, today I have read through this site and finally admitted to myself that Michael has left this life, and cried and cried and cried.
I'm not sure if I feel better just yet, I'm still feeling pain, but I know from past experience that the pain will give way to all of the memories I have of Michael and he will stay with me, and yes with you forever.
Thankyou to Kell' and Patricia for bringing a beautiful star into our world, my wish is for your pain to lessen each day, and for you to know that Michael IS with you, for he would not leave those whom he loves so dearly alone in this life entirely.
As for INXS' decision to recruit Jon Stevens, I can only hope that it is not detrimental to their music (post Michael)I am not sure that I am ready to listen to someone else try to bring Michael's charisma and style back to the lyrics he and Andrew wrote, but if anyone can do it then Jon can. For those of you that don't know or remember Jon from Noiseworks, you are in for a treat, I guess one day I will be able to watch him do his best, although it still hurts when I see him on stage with the guys instead of 'My Hutch!'

PEACE. XX

Michael's death however tragic inpires me as did his life. I am certain that we have been chased by many of the same demons - only buy some twist of fate have I managed to make it. There are those of us who still truly adore and admire his talent and spirit.

To the family & loved ones,
Please forgive me because I don't know where to begin. In the 1980's, I first heard INXS, and enjoyed thier music to no end. I was an impressionable teenager, and pretty shy.The music of INXS, and Michael Hutchence helped free me from my adolesent shell, and touched my heart, and spirit. Kids are like sponges when the find something that moves them, and I was moved. I would ride the bus to and from school, listening to INXS on my walkman, or in class when I could get away with it. And, yes I daydreamed about meeting them, or seeing a show( which to my deepest regret I have never seen them live in concert). I had all the childhood fantasies, like so many. But, eventually over the years I grew up. Childhood fantasies fade. But, I have always, and will always love the music. The words, the sounds.I never had the pleasure of meeting Michael or any of INXS, as I would have liked to, but his voice is always in my head. He definately had a voice like no other. SO here I am grown up, and when I hear of his death, years later in 1997, no longer the swooning teenager, an adult, I cried. See I was in the process of watching my own Mother die ( Dec. 1997), and had little else on my mind. But, the loss of this man,this voice who had made such an impact on my life, truly saddened me. And, until I found this Memorial, has in small ways kept haunting me. I felt guilty because I wasnt a more devoted fan, or never saw a concert. Anyways, a few days ago,I hear an INXS song on the radio, nothing out of the ordinary there, but it stopped me. It's almost been five years, and I still wonder about why, truly why in the world, did we have to loose him. As, Im sure many do still wonder. But, i felt compelled to look around on the web a bit, and see what I could find, and I found this moving, love filled site. I have read every bit of it, and I have found closure. He was a truly remarkable human being, I wish so much I had the chance to know, but his family, this web site has given me a small glimpse, and I can say, yes he was as wonderful, as I as a child had always thought he was. And, Im so glad He was there in my chilhood, and still today. I have children of my own now, and send all my prayers, and hopes for his child, to find her way in the world. I recently lost my father, my best friend, and I know the road she has ahead is hard. But, it sounds like she has so much love around her. She will be alright. I beg your pardon for using up so much space. All the best to you all,
Sincerely, Joan B.

Oh God! It happened again - on our MTV in news-block they talk about new
INXS album released.They showed pieces of different videos: “Elegantly wasted”,
“New sensation”, “Taste it”(first version!) and some others, and some concert
fragments -all with Mike..
Oh,..he was really gorgeous in his black & white close-fitting trousers,tight
shirt...mooving SO cool,easy and sexy..And his magic voice in some not-released
before song.
They showed Andrew and Kirk..Kirk said something like:“Michael would be proud,
he would be happy if we'll continue with new guy”...
..But..Michael was INXS.Now it's only composers band.Nobody can be substitute for
him.
Now it's lack of charisma,lack of good energy,lack of sexuality..
Sweet baby,you were so harmonious person-beautiful,perfect body,
with beautiful perfect soul.
Love you more than everything.

Thank you for having this site available, It was so very sad to see one so talented pass so young.
I know that you must miss him dearly, as do people that also loved his music and carisma.
Bless you all.

I keep listening to “The Stairs” (live) and hearing Michael talking to the crowd, close your eyes, its like he is with us. Missing you...

Today I bought “Best of INXS” and as I lay back and listen my heart aches. I saw INXS this past summer with Jon Stevens, and they were amazing, and the entire time, Michael was in my mind. I felt him there. He still will remain one of the biggest parts of INXS. I miss him greatly, and I am glad the band misses him very much too!! The video tributeto Michael was a tear-jerker!!!!
I love you Michael, and Miss you!!

Just once again thinking of you, and where you are now. I know you're watching over everyone who cares about you. And that you miss us as we miss you. But we shall be together again.
Michael, not a day goes by that you're not thought of. You forever have my love.

Michael,

I had the opportunity to stay in your country specially the city of Sydney on the past year 2000. And I had my best thoughs and feelings in you, during my trip along the Sydney Bay and Harbour Bridge in a ferry.

All my blesses and my best wishes to you, family and the little Tiger Lily.

I know that you are fine and continuing singing, dancing and of course being so sexy.

Love,
Veronica

Schade, dass solche Menschen wie er nicht lange leben. Er war ein cooler Rockstar. Seine Musik, vor allem sein Solo-Album, haben mir geholfen und tuen es noch immer in so manch schwerer Zeit.

Miss you always Michael.

Time has gone by so quickly, it's hard to believe Michaels been gone from our lives almost 5 years now.
I have just bought the new INXS CD and shed a few tears whilst listening to it. God Bless you Michael, we miss and love you loads. xxxxxx

If I hear Kylie Minogue on the radio I think of Michael. If I hear U2 on the radio I think of Michael. It's so weird. I wish they played more of INXS on the radio around where I live. I remember the 1980's and they played INXS all the time. We need some more of that music back on the air. To remember happier times.

Dear Mr. Hutchence,it's hard to put into words, how I'm thankful
to you for everything--for this site,for your words.
It all means so much for us-Mike's fans.
Every time I see his pictures or read someone's comment-I'm thinking:
“What a wonderful thing,what a miracle was his existence among us!
We had possibility to touch his great talent, to see his God like appearance
and to listen his magic voice”.
I promice, I (and for sure all other visitors of this site) will remember
your son till my last day (most probably even after it).
God Bless all your friends and family,
All our love for charming Tiger Lily.
