When I turned 17 years old in 1983, I made a promise to myself that I would see INXS, U2 & Simple Minds every chance I had. Well, let me tell you, I have saved all of my concert stubs over the years and can say that I have seen INXS with Michael seven (7) times. Yes, of course I also saw U2 & Simple Minds! I have seeen INXS with J.D. who is, I must say a very good singer and does sound quite a bit like Michael, however, getting to the point, Michael had such a fantastic stage. Not just was he sexy in his own way, he moved exactly with the music. Every word had its own sway or a just fitting facial expression. I purchased the VHS tape of the band from the early 90's, check it out, great video!
Upon hearing trhe news of Michael's death, I was beyond saddened. I couldn't think of it without tearing. I can't imagine how the bandmates and family all felt. What a huge loss to the misuc world. Still, INXS is after all these years, my ultimate, rock on!

To a great musician who's time came far too soon for the world. You are missed and thought of fondly by many. Thank you for the impact you had on so many during your life. May you rest in peace.
If kisses were raindrops
I'd send you a shower,
if a hug was a second
I'd send you hours.
If smiles were water
I'd send you the sea,
and if love was a person
I'd send you me.
Happy Valentine's Day, Mick.
A prayer on my guitar, for you. You are such a muse to me and you inspire me to write. I do believe there is a gig in the sky and when I pass over, hopefuly I will see it. With regards to singing and songwriting, you are up there with John Lennon, Jim Morrison, Nick Drake and all the other amazing artists. But that goes without saying. Patricia.x

Always so grateful for the wonderful things you brought to this world and you continue to touch many hearts. Missing you this week as I think about how much inspiration you gave. Only wish I could have told you and only pray you knew how many people thought so fondly of you and cared for you as a person, not just you as a musician. Much love being sent out to you wherever you may be today and to all of your loved ones.
To all the dear people here at the Michael Hutchence memorial,your site is truly one of a kind and I enjoyed my first visit here today.You were very blessed to have such a talent in your family and I just wanted to let you know Hutch's music lives on across our huge universe and will always be close to my heart, missing him here in the Philadelphia,Pa. USA area.He truly is still missed 10 plus years. Hoping to hear more from this site in the future. I will never let his memory go. Cheers to the future. Gailxoxox Miss Ya Hutch, you are an angel.
Happy Birthday Michael. I became a fan just recently and will always regret not seeing you in person. Your beautiful music will be with me forever.
Much love!!!!!
Much love!!!!!
my tears are true and I find myself once again wishing for Michael to allow me to see him again, sing for me, laugh for me and share that special warmth he had with me and all his fans. It has taken me several years to bring myself to comeback to this place. My years of posting on the list faided when Michael died. I still have all the things I ever collected..I offered them all to Kell to give to Tiger but he said she would have everything of Michaels..I hope this happened..because she will one day seek out the father that was taken from her. Peace and Love to everyone who feels like I do...I cry for the sudden stop of him...
In the spring of 95', I think it was; I met Mike and his girlfriend at the time for the first and last time.
I was working in a boutique/specialty shop in the Westport district of Kansas City Missouri. INXS was on tour and slated to play that evening at the Starlight Theatre.
Mike walked in to the shop with his lady, and proceeded to quietly look around and check things out. I was in back working, and the front shop keeper person was out to lunch.
I knew exactly who he was, but I didn't want to get all 'fanboy' up in his face, because I'm a musician and I know when someone is enjoying quiet time. So I kept a respectful eye on him just in case he had a question or needed some help, and eventually he did that sort of “Is anybody home in here” rubberneck-thing, so I came out front and played it cool.
I said hello, he said hello, and we both knew the deal without having to go into the usual blah-blah-blah.
As my employers shop was a “Bakery For Dogs”( were NOT going there right now ), the owners Great Dane was hanging about and ruling the roost as she always did.
Mike asked what kind of dog she was, and I told him. He said “My girlfriend's Danish too”. So I had to jump right in and pacify the situation before Danish girlfriend got mad.
That's when I had to bring out fanboy and put everything in perspective again. But don't you think for one moment that I didn't do it cool.
I simply asked “How's the tour going”? And Mike jumped right in and got back into his groove. Everybody parted with smiles, and it really left a great impresion on me:
Mike was by far and away the coolest Rock Star and down to earth Human in that realm that I've EVER met, even to this day.
Rest in Bliss Brother; I think of You often.

Whenever I hear his songs and his suggestive voice I can not stop thinking what a waste life . . .
I'm shure he was a very special person and obviously a very sexy man.

Dear Michael~
Happy Belated birthday. I've returned to college after more than a decade away. I find myself thinking of you and listening to your music as inspiration when I feel I can't meet all the demands of being a wife and mother and student. I wish you were still here but you haven't really left, have you? We are still connected through the music as we were when I was a teen.

My brother used to go to school along Old Peak Road. My mom and I used to pick him up from school on some days and on others visit with friends that lived in the Mid Levels ( Bowen Road ). We, my brother and I knew of Michael and my brother especially loved his music. We are in our 40s now, and as one does reflect on 'the good days', at this age and older, I found myself thinking of the times we had back in HongKong ( 30 yrs ). Anyway, just wanted to wish you all the best, and pay respects to Michael, although we never really came face to face often enough. Happy Birthday Michael.
As “Never tear us apart” says:...I was standing, you were there, two worlds collided, and they could never tear us apart...that's the same way that you put this in to me and you conquered my heart.

I was a young and impressional girl who was deeply moved by the sound of INXS. I would play their music and escape to a world of rock and roll. I'm a normal everyday kind of gal, but INXS allowed me to pretend to be someone else. I'm all grown up now and I still put on the headphones and blare out all the moving, touching and romantic sounds of this band. I'm sorry I never got to meet Michael but I look forward to dancing with him in another life...where we are all rock stars!
Still missing all that you were and all that you are
me parece maravilloso que exista esta pagina para rendir tributo a mi artista favorito, y como un medio para acercarme un poquito mas a sus vivencias y a lo que fue su carrera artistica, se que la banda sigue adelante y estoy feliz de que asi sea, aunque también se que sin Michael, INXS no volverá a ser lo que fue.
Micheal You were the essence of rock&roll in the 80s and 90s, You will me missed.. Peace to Tiger Lily and your familly..RIP Micheal and Kelland....USA
You gave a special sense to this world!
I have been a fan since I saw INXS on a satellite link for Live Aid (1985-Wembley) on the tv. Nearly 23 yrs later and I am still a fan. 'New Sensation' is the ringtone on my phone - so they are never far away from my thoughts.
That's all I needed to say.
