Happy 47th birthday, Michael. I raised a glass in honor of you today. My thoughts and prayers have been with you, your family, friends, bandmates, and precious Tiger Lily. I hope that she will come to know how much you loved her, and what a sweet, generous, sensitive soul you were. I hope she finds this website and reads how much her father was loved and how you touched the lives of millions of people around the world. You were a gifted and talented man. Your music has given me such joy with its positive, philosophical lyrics and upbeat melody. I have been a devoted fan since the eighties, and an even bigger fan in the last year and a half. For over a year now, I only listen to INXS on my CD player (I never listen to the radio), and I barely watch any tv. The only time I turn tv on is to watch an INXS DVD-usually Live Baby Live. Live Baby Live is always on in my car, as well. It's a fun way to drive around town-jamming to that energetic concert. I know that you are looking down on us and realizing how much you are still loved and what a wonderful impact you have made on the world. If you see my Dad, tell him that I said, “Hello, and I miss him”. He passed away two and a half weeks ago.
Someday, my wish is to go to Australia in time for one of your birthday celebrations.
Until then, love and peace, Michael.
