Deepest sympathy to Jacqui and Mario.

Ian, Thanks for all that you have done and all that you continue to do to keep Michael's memory strong and vibrant as it should always be. It's like you were heaven sent to continue doing what is needed and richly deserves to be done. Especially when it also helps to fulfill Kell's wishes. Also thanks for sharing your little stories regarding Kell, they are touching and helps to put a smile on the face with a warm feeling inside. I wish there was something us fans could do to help in making it easier for you to make some of Kell's dreams come to fruition!!
Michael was too special to ever be forgotten.
He will always hold a special place in people's hearts that come here but he deserves a much wider area of appreciation by many who do not realise the true depth of character and artistic accomplishments, that was just one small part of Michael Kelland Hutchence.

All the hard work and dedication that has been done here on this special sacred site, no words could truly describe the true appreciation for it...

Love and peace,

Judy and Barry xoxox

Hello one and all!!
Sorry I haven't been on here for a few days...my apologies..I miss you all though!!
My heart goes out to Mario and Jackie. You'll need only eachother to get through this difficult time. I feel for you and am thinking of you during this awful time in your lives.
Ian, once again, thank you for maintaining this beautiful site. Not only has it helped me come to SOME closure with Michael, but helped me remember him in ways I never thought possible.Also, I've met the NICEST, most loving people on here, whom I always look forward to coming here and reading posts, to my friends Sonali, Alice, Michelle and Nadia, just a gesture of appreciation for all the love and support you've given me and others. You're forever in my hearts. I've said it before and I'll say it again, Michael would be thrilled knowing that his spirit has united friendships world wide!
Also Ian, making a movie about Michael is a fantastic idea!! So many other artists have been honoured that way. It could be for instance a 2-part movie, following Michael from childhood, INXS, Fatherhood and unfortunetly death, and how his passing has affected the music world and INXS fans. That's an idea, which I think we can all appreciate.
But I just thought I'd say hello, and let everyone know I am thinking of them!!
To my Prince in the Sky, I love you!!! XOOXOX

My Deepest sympathy to Mario and Jackie.
Not wanting to in any way to sound cold and callous; Would it be Honorable to do a film documentary on Michael or INXS? In a loving way only, Would we ever see the Michael Hutchence Story? Or the tremendous success of INXS? The complete story? Michael is a true Legend of rock and roll- never to be forgotten.

I'm also among the ones that read Ian's message and couldn't help getting all emotional.
Thank you so much for your dedication to Michael and his dad and for the sake of all of us who love Michael so so much, please don't get discouraged by what other people think to “know” best! Michael will forever be loved, missed and his music will continue to fill our hearts with joy, mesmerize us all and even get the interest of those who happened not to have discovered them sooner! So no matter what some might say 'cause it's a cruel and unfair world, please continue all your projects about Michael! God, how happy I would be if that book that Michael's father was working on gets published ! And I know for sure that many other loving fans would agree on this one! I've been thinking these days of re-reading the book wrote by Michael's sister and mom, but I'm so afraid of reliving all those dreadful moments. The beginning and the end were so so devastating to me in spite of all those beautiful memories that Mrs. Tina Hutchence and Michael's mom were so kind to share with us all! God bless you all and keep loving Michael with every breath that you got 'cause that's what what I'm doing ! Now and forever!

Thank you for your message, Ian, I always look forward to your posts!! Mario and Jackie, my thoughts and prayers are always with you. Also a big hello to my friends Michelle, Aidan (where are you?), Nadia, Alice, Shell...Hope you all are okay...today I was suddenly overcome by Michael's passing once again...and I keep asking myself why it had to be him...I guess that's one question I'm going to wonder about forever!!!God bless you all...

am re-reading the biography of michael by his mum and sister...
can I just say, my 2 fav inXs albums of all time, the swing & listen like thieves, were released in consecutive years, with 6 or 7 great tracks on each album...
no one, not lennon (bless his soul), nor mccartney, nor the stones, achieved this brilliance...what made inXs great was the group, team ethic, which the other groups did not have, lennon hated mccartney. and jagger vs. richards, they hated each other's guts...

I was passing by, thought I'd say hi. You're no longer here, but you're rocking it up in heaven watching us all. As long as theres people who still love you you're never gone. Stay cool Mick. Missing you, Mod.

I watched some videos of Michael and INXS tonight, Mystify, Never Tear Us Apart, Need You Tonight.... it stirred up my heart all over. Sometimes it's so hard to not feel very, very sad about it all...

When I last spoke to Kell he was excited that I was going to London to work. Normally he wouldn't have been. He wanted me to be close by so we could do lunch or just sit on his balcony drinking in the gorgoeus view while we sipped on tea, joked, laughed or had quiet moments of reflection about Michael. But Kell didn't complain this time about me moving further away, because he knew he didn't have very long left. Infact he left us four days later. When we last spoke, he wanted me to continue our “Michael Projects”, and perhaps he thought London might be a more central place for me to do that. I could not even contemplate what it would be like not to get his almost daily telephone calls or to come home to his cheerful messages which most often finished with an “...anyway Matey, give us a call”.
He and Michael are so dearly missed, not to mention the sorrow of Paula's passing.

What were Kell's aspirations in the days after Michael died? He just wanted Michael to be remembered and honoured and for his musical genious to be acknowledge and celebrated. In recent years we worked at getting Michael's solo album re-packaged and released with at least one or two previously unreleased songs. We worked at getting interest in a Tribute Concert, a film, a Michael musical. Kell also worked hard at trying to get his “coffee table picture book” of Michael's life published. We came up against a lot of brick walls in recent years yet we were determined not to give up.

Publishers lost interest in his book, promoters became preoccupied in other pursuits, perhaps the INXS boys were not sure whether Michael Projects might seem exploitational or perhaps not in the best interest for the future success of INXS. Michael's estate including his publishing rights of course were so thoughtfully taken over by one of his old trusted legal friends...so in the end we seemed to bang our heads against a wall. But Kell asked me not to give up and I am not going to. He certainly wouldn't have if he was still alive. I have been plodding away at several projects and I know that sometime in the future it will be the right time for people once again to re-discover (or perhaps discover for the first time) the charisma of Michael Kelland Hutchence.

In the meantime, in ten days it will be Kell's birthday, in eleven it will be Tiger's, so watch www.michaelhutchence.org for something special.
Love and Peace,
Ian

Our love and best wishes go out to Mario and Jackie who are grieving the lost of Mario's Mom. May you both be lifted and sustained at this time. May the many happy memories of her continue to sprout and bloom in the peaceful garden of your hearts.

Today on the radio I heard “Never Tear Us Apart” and I was moved to tears at the tragic loss of this lovely man. Time doesn't heal the wounds of loss it just makes them easier to bear. Thank you so much for this beautiful tribute to someone so dear.

This is a WONDERFUL tribute to a WONDERFUL father, singer, songwriter, and entertainer.

Thank you for creating something so beautiful.

Yeah Aidan, Alice, I wonder the same thing all the time...I always wonder what Michael would be like if he was still here. I'm sure he would be just as fantastic as ever!!! I keep thinking, “If only he'd had someone to talk to that night...” and things like that and feel terrible, but I guess life's all about accepting tragedy and moving on without questioning the past...but Michael's spirit is still alive, and that's proven by our friendship!!! To think that people of all ages, all races all over the world are connecting at such a level is incredible, and its all thanks to Mike!!!! Love to Aidan, Alice, Nadia, Michelle, Shell and of course, to Michael!!! God bless!!! Waiting to hear from you all!!
