The new InXs compilation is amazing. “InXs - The Deluxe Years, 1979-1982” features the first two albums, including the immortal singles “Stay Young”, “Just Keep Walking” and many others, and a detailed booklet with early group photos.
Even as an 18-year-old, Michael had unbelievable presence and vocal energy...
It was interesting Demetrio from the U.S. mentioned he liked ska music, because InXs in the early days were influenced by ska.
Can I also recommend a particular track, Andrew Farriss' instrumental synth version of “Stay Young” called “Lacoval”.
He and Michael were musical prodigies.
The double album also features a new unreleased version of “Stay Young” the group recorded on the isle of Capri in 1992.
It has a live, demo feel and is amazing.

First and foremost, I've known and heard of Michael Hutchence's name through a colleague in the hotel where I presently work. He said he was Michael's schoolmate in Hong Kong way back primary days. As I hear his story about Michael, I searched the website for this INXS band and this guy Michael. I can't help but feel sad. How can such talented man die a tragic death. My heart goes for his family and friends who have lost such a wonderful man. I did not have a chance to see his concert (I don't even own one CD of INXS) but through this website I have learned a big lesson in life from Michael. May he rest in peace. I also care deeply for his daughter, Tiger Lily, may she grow to be a lovely lady and may she also know God as her creator.
Thanks to those who have made this website. May other people be blessed by Michael's life through this powerful medium. God bless you richly!

fue una buena epoca cuando estaba Michael en INXS fue una hombre muy guapo y sexy
I just love coming here daily! so many new & lovely thoughts of Michael...
Julies message made me a bit sad though, Jon is trying to fill a space that is impossible to fill as Michael was larger than life, but, as much as I have been avoiding facing INXS with out Michael it (is not out of disgust), Julies note made me see how selfish that is... INXS need to go on, Michaels lyrics & music must be passed on to the next generation, if we all stopped going to see them, then how can we tell kids how fantastic they are see the way Michael can touch them through his music. Michaels images are on a big screen, his fans have him in their hearts & minds his presence IS at the concerts! I will be going to the next gig I will support the WHOLE band & I know I will shed tears when I see & feel Michaels presence!I will have a good time & I will hope that a lot of young people are there to hear how truely talented Michael still is & the older crowd will remember.
I hope that all is well with Nadia Aidan Sonali Alice & the regulars they all leave such beautiful messages & a mention to Celtflame yours was a sad story I hope you have peace!
Love to the Family, Friends & Fans Of the most beautiful Michael!
Sweet dreams Tiger.

Hi,
I just wanted to confess that about a year ago I had an opportunity to see INXS at a local summer festival, so I went just to see what it would be like. I have to admitt I was not pleased. Mainly because Michael was not singing (of course). I thought I would be able to handle hearing someone else sing those songs but to me it was just some guy doing a poor imitation of Michael. To top it off it disgusted me to to see the audience enjoying it, so I left in anger. Don't get me wrong I love INXS and have ever since my Mom took me to see them when I was 11 years old. I thought I would be excited to see them again. However it was too hard for me to see them without Michael. After thinking about it now I guess it's because I felt some weird loyalty to Michael and still do. As much as I hope for nothing but the best for the remaining members of INXS it's to hard to see them without Michael and would never want to. I'm so grateful I got to experience INXS live (with Michael). He was such an amazingly gifted person and it's just so hard to live without him.
Love you Michael!!

All those who got the chance to see Inxs perform are so lucky!
I would give anyhting to have had such a chance!!!
God, you don't know how blessed you all are!So remember with every fibre in your heart such a superb moment and share it with everybody else who can see a concert only in their dreams! Love & peace(as Michael would have said) to all the fans in the whole world!

I am absolutely overwhelmed by this site. Thank you to those who created this site so that those of us who adored him from afar could have peace in our grief. I first discovered INXS when I was eleven years old and was immediately smitten with Micheal. In an unstable home enviornment I took solace in the beautiful distraction of their music. I was devastated on the day when I heard of his death as I woke up to DJs discussing it on my radio. I don't think I fully understood what he, though I never even saw him perform live, meant to me. I finally feel a sense of peace after spending hours soaking in the images and words on this site. Thank you.
To Tiger, you were and have the fire in his eyes. May you always know that he lit up many, many lives, including mine. You will always be in my prayers.

Hey everyone! Thanks, Ian, for your wonderful message! I especially found what you said about depression to be very significant...Thank you to all my friends here who've made me feel so much better about Mike...I'll never stop loving him and missing him, of course!!!! God bless you all, and I love you, Mike!!!
I of course, was devestated when Michael passed. I think of Michael often, but this is the first time I've ever taken the time to look through this site entirely. It's beautiful, and it brings back all those feelings, good and bad, of Michael.
Looking at pictures of him makes me so sad...but then I REALLY look at them (esp. live pics) and the feelings turn to happiness and excitement of when I first saw INXS live! Nothing made me happier!
I can't remember who's tribute said it...but this statement really made me want to cry.
“I pray Michael is at peace...I pray everyday for it”...or something to that effect.
I pray Michael is at peace...and I pray for his family, Tiger, and friends. May you too, be at peace.
I'll never forget.

Dear Michael,
If I could e-mail you a letter to you in cyberspace, or float on a cloud to speak to you in heaven, even if I don't belong there, I would. And I'd tell you how much everyone loves and misses you. If you could, I know you'd be here in a twinkling of an eye. Seeing your daughter would make your spirit soar! But all I or anyone can offer you is sweet prayers, which somehow I truly beleive that they are relayed to you in some special way by a power higher than imagineable.

I truely love this Memorial website. I miss Michael; as I know everyone else does. My heart goes out to his family and fans around the world. '97 was a sucky year for me; miscarried a baby; lost my dad 2 months later and then my favorite singer.

I just wanted to say hello to the Family, Friends & Fans of the loved one! Being able to do this every few days makes me feel so much better. knowing that other fans care how I feel, because they miss him just as much as I do!
Much love to all the regulars. I agree with you Nadia, the happiness that Kell felt reading these messages is very heart warming & Tiger will feel it also when she reads how much her Daddy is loved & will NEVER be forgotten!
Love Shell X.

Hope one day Tiger'll read some messages & memories.// All my love & best wishes to everyone connected with this site, to all Michael's friends, fans & family.
I wanted to add one other thought if I may. Depression is such a lethal thing if you avoid dealing with it in yourself or ignore the signs in others near to you. People just need the answer which is often discovered when they realize the preciouness of their personhood. Sometimes we realise our significance by being loved by others and by loving others in return. Sometimes it is a spritual realization that we are created precious and unique.
Do you know who wrote the following?
“Should I believe... the shadow of light in the shadow of death?...
I lose myself like anybody else
But I'm not so strong to make it in the end
I need some answers when
The day comes crashing
But it is all over when
There's no one to be found”.
sadly it was Michael...“Biting Bullets” off “Listen Like Thieves”
but the also wrote this SO make a...
“Resolution of happiness
Things have been dark
For too long”
(Don't Change)

So great to hear how you all love this site. Kell loved this site too and would drop in almost everyday. Sometimes it would be too much for him, so he would ask me to email him the special messages. He would then drop them a line personally or have me do it on his behalf. Kell was so proud of this site and it was one of the few things that brought him joy after losing his son. It was one of his request to me on his death bed to make sure this site remained up.
It is the support of all you guys that keep coming back here and Mario and Jackie Ferrari for the generosity of their time and resources in maintaining this site that we remain indebt to. Susie and Rhett are also 100% behind this site and greatly appreciate all your love and well-wishes.
When I first approached Mario to help me put together a special site with Kell (it was to help Kell in his grieving), it was on the basis that I knew both Mario and Jackie loved and respected Michael. They have been such an inspiration and encouragement to Kell and Susie on their all too few trips to Sydney.
So thanks Mario and Jackie again and again for helping me help Kell and all of Michael's fans.
In the time after Michael's death I got to hear so much more about him through his Dad but also his friends and fans. These message pages became an important chronical of Michael's movements throughout the world as literally thousands of people re-told their story of meeting him. Funny, in all the years since this Guestbook has been open, Mario and I can honestly say we cannot recall one message that every was negative about Michael. Nowhere have I read that he was an arrogant, heartless, cold person who couldn't sing or write. He may have often lived life on the wild side, but even that side of him Michael knew was blown out of all proportions by the press. A real test of a man's heart is to see the esteem he is still held in by his former friends or partners. People such as Bono, Kylie, Michele, Geg Perano, Helena, Martha Troup, Andy Gill, Jimmy Barnes, Richard Lowenstein, and so the list goes on, all to this day remember and honour Michael with the fondest, warmest of memories. Such sentiment in the rock and roll world is very, very rare.
God bless you all Michael and INXS fans and I hope you are living this precious day in hope, love and peace wherever you are in this world.
Love and peace,
Ian Patterson
PS: You may have noticed last week Rhett dropped by to ask Mario for a copy of all your messages for Tiger...did you know the Australian National Library in our capital, Canberra, discovered this site and recognized it as a “significant national treasure”. They requested permission to archive the entire site into their library for perpetual preservation.
So even your messages, as heartfelt as they are, will be preserved and go down in the pages of Australian cultural history! Pretty cool uh?

To Mr Hutchence and all those associated with this memorial to Michael i just want to congratulate you on a wonderful site. I happened to come across it from the inxs site. I am an inxs fan from the 80s, and i was lucky enough to have met Michael a few times during the 80s. I have fond memories of those times, and i cherish my albums that were signed, unfortunately i didnt get a photo with michael as he always was being rushed off somewhere, but im thankful i met him. He will live on forever in his music and i thank him for that also.
Long live michaels music!

I think that Michael had such incredible stage presence that's unsurpassed! An extremely gorgeous person with that perfect voice. Too many adjectives? There's just not enough to describe him. I love his voice to this day. May you always rest in peace knowing the influence you had on the world. As you would say, Love and Peace.
Kathleen, what a beautiful message you wrote! It went streight to my heart!! See, that's what I was talking about in my message above!
The very first time I came on this site and left a message I could barely see the letters on the key board while writing my message. It was smth. so powerful, so special that words cannot even be found to describe the feeling. I tried to stay aside for a while as it was too painful. But something(beside my love for Michael)kept on calling me back here and now I know for sure what it is. All these messages I read here, all the friends I can say I found in such a special place determines me to come here almost every day! So thank you all for your beautiful thoughts and let's stay like this as Michael is sure enjoying this ! All the best to everyone and a special Hello to Nadia, Aidan, Sonali !!
Hi! I just spent 3 hours reading this page... it's really great. I was a big fan of INXS when I was 16, still love the music and I was so happy to see them in Geneva at a concert. All the best to the whole family and especially to Michal's little girl - your Daddy was wonderful!
