I remember in 1990,me at the age of 10 then, Suicide Blonde being on MTV every hour,my mother would yell at me because I would leave the TV on (but muted) for hours waiting for the song's video to come on again so I could dance to it. Needless to say what happened when MTV had dedicated INXS weekends...
I bought all the INXS tapes beginning with X. My dad was a water polo team coach so every second weekend on the away games he would drive us to some other part of Greece and I obsessively listened to INXS on my walkman while on the car and reading the lyrics at the same time. Everytime we got back home I would look up words and phrasal verbs from INXS lyrics in the dictionary...
In a way I learned English from Michael.
In 1997 I went to university in England and even though by that time I was listening to other stuff I was thrilled by the potential of seing INXS live.
The day I heard the news I refused to believe it. Still to this day I cannot believe it. Everytime INXS comes on the radio I feel like I am about to say to myself “I wonder what these guys are up to” as if Michael is still here. It just doesn't make any sense.
Michael Hutchence was a genuine and charismatic performer. He was a poet,a singer, a dancer,a charmer,indeed he was “heaven sent”.
Michael you will eternally live in our hearts.
