Dear Michael, I will never forget the first time I seen you on MTV in the music video "The One Thing " , I was truly mesmerized by you. I loved you the first time I seen you and fell in love each time a new video came out. You were a true inspiration and the greatest frontman of all time. I was so very lucky to have seen you with Inxs X factor tour on February 14,1991. Best concert ever !!! Thank you for giving us the Gift of your music !!! You are truly missed and loved. Such a beautiful man and beautiful soul.

Saw INXS twice during my high school days in the 80’s. It was during this time I fell in love with the band and the voice and soul of Michael Hutchence. It’s January 2021 and I am here wishing Michael Happy Birthday, (turning 50 on the 28th myself!) and reliving my sadness for losing him all those years ago. I listen to them often and I am taken aback at how current and timeless their sound and lyrics remain.
Michael’s voice was unbelievably sensitive, sultry, and powerful. He moved with a rebellious abandon that reminds me of my younger soul and how free and open I was to possibility. Thank you INXS for all the years of music! Thank you Michael for
sharing your spirit with us as long as you did.

Dear Michael,
a long, long time ago…
one day the intoxicating aroma of roses filled my room and each time the summer breeze gently stroked the trees in the garden, the open door let in the heavy scent of lilac... From the corner of the sofa, through the chink of golden light, in the middle of the room, on an abnormally big screen, I saw you. The beautiful figure of the musician with parted lips and intensively bright eyes. I was overcome by a strange feeling of anxiety. I knew that I was standing before a man whose very personality was so fascinating that it was bound to swallow my whole being, all of my soul, and start to fill me up with a completely new kind of life. Life that I would start to experience in a way unknown to me. I knew that your personality and music would give my mundane activities the charm that I had struggled to find and failed.
Michael I wish I had been to your concert - I was too young.
To this alternate reality in which you exist now, I send kisses on your birthday and every day. ❤

Happy birthday mate!
You lived your life the way you wanted and were an inspiration to many.
Hope to see you again when the stars fall from the sky.
Till then, take care.

Dear Michael,
I keep thinking about you and I feel you deep in my heart. I see you while staring at the sky, the trees and the sun: for me you are everywhere and your music is the perfect soundtrack of my life. No pain today but so much joy, the same joy you brought to the entire world with your voice. An angels' chour in heaven is singing your songs, I wish I was there with you to hug you and thank you. Love, Cristina.

Happy Solar Return, Hutch!

I am soaking in the ambiance of the Northern Suburbs Crematorium as I write this, your face, through the plaque on your memorial, gracing my presence.

Needless to say, we all miss you like crazy. Sorry to hear of the passing of INXS manager Chris Murphy. Thank you guys for creating the good times.

With love,

I am stopping by to say hello. A long time fan of Michael Hutchence and INXS . Just wanted to send love to the friends and family who knew him best. Stay strong and know that we miss him and remember his beautiful words and voice. He was one of the best performers I have had the privilege to see live. May he Rest In Peace and the music play on.

61st Birthday and something more

Hello and greetings from Poland,

Due to lockdown I was watching more  youtube videos than usual  - mostly music of my youth-the  80ties. For many on this planet it' s the best music ever- many talented young men composed hits just like on a production line.
INXS is always on my " to listen list".
A few days ago I was wondering how Michael Hutchens-sexiest rockstar of the 80ties- could look like today -as a middle age man. After short "googling"  I learned that he d' died in 1997.
I cannot remember that I've heard about it.
In 1997 I was living between  Germany and my homeland Poland , and we had no this kind of western "gossip press " . I knew nothing about Michael's privat life- for me he was just a superb front man, singer of INXS. 
I remember in 1991 I was hearing an audio cassette "Graetest hits "on my 20 hours holiday bus travell to Spain   - I' ve bought the cassette on a black market in  post communist Poland. "By my side " was my favorite, and I was hearing this song again and again.
Anyway owing to internet I' ve learned something about Michael' s life, his famous girl friends, family, and  last years as  father . It inspired me to write something , a kind of poem -maybe someone like it.

For Michael
I cry bitter tears, didn' t know you 're gone
You spent not enough time here...
Remember you singing „ Need you tonight”...
That night in November, no one at your side
at the point of no return...?
The final numbers 524 -new and last sensation,
mystified for ever...
Wherever your spirit might be now,
don' t miss to taste and smell -
a glass of bordeaux wine , a ripe olive
and a beautiful girl-in a lavender field
telling you -„Never tear us apart” .
The time slips away, elegantly wasted
by many , but not you-
-you lived your life in excess ,with passion
giving love to family and friends ,
sharing your music with us.
I would like to disappear for a while
and occur in your perfect universe
just to thank you for being here ...

You were Heaven Sent. But had a little of the Devil Inside also . Hearing you sing gave me a New Sensation and made my troubles Disappear. But no more Bitter Tears will be shed and you will always Stay Young. So I Send A Message that even though you are no longer here with us you are truly The Loved One and nothing will stop the After Glow of The Gift you gave us. There's Not Enough Time in the world to say What You Need to say to somebody who was such a big part of my life emotionally and still is. I have been Searching for those words and hope they reach you. So today I will play your music so all can Hear The Sound like Guns In The Sky and I will Learn To Smile again. Death can Never Tear Us Apart from those who are loved. Sorry for being a it Wishy Washy. Happy Birthday Michael and Shine Like It Does

Dear Michael,

Wishing you lots of Love and Happiness on this special day of yours.
For me...it all started with "What You Need" back in 1984 at a
staff Christmas party. Today, "I" celebrate you for giving us so much of your precious time. Baby Don't Cry. I'm wishing you well today.

Happy Birthday Michael.
Sending you virtual hugs to keep you warm....

Hi I just wanted to say how great of a rockstar Michael is. I have never heard of INXS before but I stumbled upon one of their songs called Got To let You Know & that just got me dancing. What got my attention in Michael is his sense of style & beauty. Its nice to know that he has millions of fans that would definitely miss his talent. He is one of a kind! My prayers are with his family & friends, I really can't imagine the pain they are going through although it's been over 20 years since his passing .
