“As a young boy I grew up listening to the magic that was INXS and was immediately inspired by frontman Michael Hutchence. Right from the beginning, it was clear to me that he wasn't just another rock star...because to me he was truly brilliant. He possessed a pied-piper effect where millions of people were captivated by him and his presence on stage was simply magnetic. Not only for his charisma and charm, but also for his love of what he was doing. He was someone who was never famous by “chance.” He deserved to be there and was meant to be as great as he will always be.
I could go on and say that the world has lost someone great and how he will be missed and all of that would be true. However I believe that the world never truly loses someone like Michael Hutchence. Yes he will be missed, yet it is important to remember that he will never be lost, replaced or forgotten. Everytime an INXS song is played, it's his brilliance that captivates us, makes us turn up the volume and that which also compells us to dance. His brilliance will live on forever and we should all be grateful that we lived in a time to appreciate such an original and truly great performer.
So when we think of INXS and feel the wonder of their music, we can be sure that Michael Hutchence will never truly be gone. For nothing good like him ever truly dies. Michael Hutchence will live forever, INXS will live forever today, tomorrow and long after we all have departed this earth.”
