Hard to believe it's been nine years. I remember hearing the news like it was yesterday.

You are deeply missed Michael, firstly and foremostly by the people that knew and loved you best and also by all your fans across the world.

We will never forget you - or the amazing legacy you left behind for us to remember, admire, respecy, embrace and enjoy for ever more.

Hope you are happy, where-ever you may be.

Love Claire xo

On the eve of the anniversary of Michael Hutchence's death, I am listening to “Not enough time”if only we all knew how prophetic Michael's lyrics would be.I never met him, never had the opportunity to see him in concert even. But the effect his music has had on my life is still enormous. I have been a fan since 1983 when I first saw the video for “Original Sin” I live in a small town in Nova Scotia Canada(not far from where JD Fortune was raised)so it was hard to obtain information and keep up with the career of INXS over the years, beyond music videos.Then with the release of “Elegantly Wasted” press coverage (in Canada) picked up again.The day press reported that Michael Hutchence had died the shock was surely felt world wide.Not having the internet until a few months ago,I didn't know much about his personal life and I am in no position to comment on his relationship with Paula.As for the Rockstar INXS reality show I thought well maybe I'll watch, because they will surely mention or even show clips of Michael (unfortunately not) I do not begrudge the band moving on with their lives and careers, and Switch is a great cd (after all I am Canadian JD)But more importantly it has renewed interest in Michael's legacy,brought new fans to hear his music and a movie about his life is now in the works.Michael's daughter Tigerlily, she looks so much like him. My eyes fill with tears when I think of all she has lost, God give her the strength she will need in this cruel world. I don't think Michael knew how he touched people worldwide and how much his talent would be missed. I miss his soulful voice,touching heartfelt lyrics and graceful movements. I will always love and respect your legacy Michael.God bless you, I guess we all forgot you were “Just A Man” after all. R.I.P.

**Dearest sweetest Michael**

My love for you continues to grow stronger with every passing year.
You are constantly in my heart and thoughts.

Hard to believe you've been gone nine years
Memories of you bring much joy and lots of tears
You will always be our loved one
My heart you have forever won
Some want to forget you, so sad I feel
I know you were so true, the real deal
You had such a rare capability
Your character wore an inbuilt humility
Shy, charismatic, compassionate and endearing
unpretentious, intelligent, soulful and understanding
Of all the lasting lovely treasures
You have given such beautiful pleasure
You had such a kindness giving to all
I will never let your memory fall
Cheered by even your simplest words and sunny smile
For you I'll always walk that extra mile

Michael your uniqueness will never be surpassed
You will always be the brightest shining star

Thank you for your special words, beautiful voice and the soulful spirit that you were and always will be....Michael Kelland Hutchence the poet of our generation

Loving you unconditionally
Missing you wholeheartedly

I raise my glass to you as always and wish you were still here, hoping you know how much you are loved and missed from people all over the world whose lives you have touched so deeply.
Max Q and your solo album will be on number 11 all day with your candle burning brightly sweet sweet Michael..

Love and Peace,
Judy xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

WOW! That was beautiful Ian, what a wonderful fitting tribute to Michael and what poignant words. How I wish that every word written could be possible. Your tribute this year was also to every human being on this earth. Thank you for lifting my heart and confirming there are many many others who wish for the same things........

On this sad Anniversary my heart and thoughts go out to Patricia, Tina, Rhett, Susie, all the Hutchence family, friends and fans but most especially my heart and thoughts go out to sweet adorable Tiger.

Warmest thoughts to everyone whose life Michael had touched and a special thank you to Ian, Mario and Jacqui for their continued dedication to Michael's sacred site and for keeping Kell's wishes for his site alive....

With much appreciaton for this wonderful place that is the spirit of Michael in my eyes.

Michael you are so sorely missed and loved.

Love and Peace to all with best wishes.

“The call of death is a call of love. Death can be sweet if we answer it in the affirmative, if we accept it as one of the great eternal forms of life and transformation.”- Hermann Hesse
This quote reflects that Hutch has not died but continues to live in the hearts of many for eternity. We look at his incredible talents of performing and song writing and continue to be amazed by them.
Hutch you will continue to live on and we will always be thinking of you.

I just read Ian's beautiful article that commemorates these 9 years that have gone by..so quickly since Michael passed away!
It made me cry, not only because I'm always extremely sensitive this time of year due to the immense loss of such an artist and human being, but also because Ian's words touched my heart..as they spoke the truth!
And probably what most impressed me was to read the news about “Never tear us apart” and connect this with the fact that this morning when i woke up and my fiancé switched on the TV, on VH-1 Classic was “Never tear us apart”!!
Nov. 21st(European date and time) is a day that I won't be able to forget..even if I'd try as it was so so sad! Michael has entered my heart from that day and he has never left my being ever since! I will love him and cherish his music til my last day on Earth!
I pray to God that somehow..you know how much you are missed and loved, dear Michael!!

It's hard to explain , the feeling that I personally feel , cos the day of his death it's the same day of my birthday.It's a terrible and confuse day to spend for me, but I try not to cry , I organise myself remember him , listening and whathing his music and videos.
For me to see his smile in that particulary day , make me feel ok , that it's alright.
wherever you are Michael , keep shining,JUST SHINE!!!

Words to Michael
Why did you leave?
Don't you know about life, about living?
the grace that was all around you , wasn't with you?
answers to be found , go away
stars built for their own , a heart where you lay.
I'm crying for you in the night , laughing in the noon, walking on the line , I heart about you
strapped in a box, you were singing a dance
get myself stuck, cos it wasn't another time.
time let me know , about your sound , your song; you sing as a poet, lost in his love
I look for a hope , not to lost
see you , someday on the way
God knew about your war, and maybe he called for your soul, but it wasn't your time , to run away, feelings and thoughts left you in a sad way.

Michael, as I am writing this I am thinking of you as your day is coming up and this year will be the 9th year that you haven't been with us... I was only 7 when you died... and have grown to love your music, I recieved one of your albums for Christmas one year and I fell in love with you and the band... I just wish that you were still here with us, to share your wonderful talent with the rest of the world... RIP Michael Hutchence, you are sadly missed by all of us... xoxo

I thought that his voice was the best. I loved to listen to him sing. I hope that it was over for him fast. I hate to think of him suffering. I wish we had not been cheated of having him in this world. Peace to you Michael whereever you are. You are missed.

November is my birthday's time, just three days before your anniversary .. but I can't afford it anymore, november is a very very sad period for me.
But this year I'll try to be not so sad ... I know you are around, I always find you when I want it. In december I'll go to London, two years ago I found you there and it's been a magic moment for me .. this year I'll do the same.
Live, Michael, live ...

I didn't hear about his death til a couple of years later. I remember I had wondered what had happened to INXS. When I found out on the “Behind the Music” show what happened I was shocked and saddened. I couldn't believe someone as honest and sincere as he was could be gone so soon!
I was so dissapointed that I wasn't able to see or hear him again until I bought the two videotaptes that were out previously, at a resale shop near where I live. That was about four years ago now.

Then two Christmasses ago I received the reissue of KICK as a gift. I listened to it and felt sad because I realized I hadn't really appreciated his music before his untimely death.

I have since purchased several of their albums and with each listen I hear someting dfferent in them each time.

They were and are a great treasure to me and always will be! Thank you Michael for being you!
Love,Ann
