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

Truly you have Angels looking out for you and Tigerlily. Your mom and sister. All over the world you are loved and missed. Everday.
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.
Thank a lot for a built this Site!
Michael will living in my memory forever!
Michael will living in my memory forever!
I imagine if he were here he'd have lots to say. Lots to Say and write about. With INXS and as a solo artist. Oh yeah, he'd have a lot to say!
Wherever you are, near and far, God bless you Michael. To the fans, always think healthy thoughts of him. Remember him in his songs. Joyful and Inspirational. His voice a special gift.
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!!
Hi everyone!
I have many relatives I want to visit this summer, so I'll have few time for visit this site. But like Michelle I'm sure there'll be many great new messages to read(like Aidan's & Alice's last postings).Michael taught me to Love my family..
And tonight I saw him in my nightdream once again-
he was young, beautiful & happy..And his jokes were splendid! I woke up laughing. And sure was in tears 2 minutes later//
Sending all my love to Aidan,Michelle,Alice,
Sonali & all other
Mike's fans,who leaves such beautiful messages here,to all his friends and family.
God Bless sweet little Tiger Lily.

Grazie, Michael, continuerai a farmi sognare...per sempre.
Yeah, Aidan! I also have these kind of thoughts, wonder how it would have been if Michael had not left us;he would have been as beautiful, sexy and dazaling as he has always been(I'm sure) and another thing:he would have continued to amaze us with his talent and beautiful voice(if think “beautiful” is a word not enough to describe his voice,I think even more powerful words should be found or invented). But I also think a lot about the past, I cannot help it! When I read smth. about Michael or I see a video I try to remember what I was doing when Michael was doing that, how was my life at that time and so on. For instance today I saw on VH-1 “Need you tonight” and then in the afternoon on Mtv “Elegantly wasted”. I was so happy as I remembered the first video that made me fall in love with his voice and his amazing good looks! I don't think there's a video where he doesn't look great!
He will be my number one till the end of (my)time and always fill my heart with joy even that all we have left are the videos and not him! But thank to God for all these precious gifts and thank you Michael for all you brought into my life!

Hello all you beautiful fans!!
Something happened today and it hit me and I had to share it with all of u. Today at work, a song on the radio came on, and it had *i can't really explain it* one of those sounds..like and INXS or U2 sounds and I loved it. It had a very Michael sound. Just then by listening to it, it hit me, “I wonder what kind of music Michael would have been making if he were still here??” I mean, I am forever grateful of what he left us, but my heart felt empty when that thought crossed my mind. My eyes filled with tears. I started wondering how he'd look, or what would be happening right now in his life?? Do you guys ever feel that way? For some reason, when I am not on here, I miss you guys!! I am so grateful I have you. And it's all because of that beautiful angel up above. Sonali, thank-you for always giving me kind words!! It warms my heart, and thank you also to Michelle, Alice and Nadia. Your words and responses mean the world to me. Like I said, we are the only ones who know what we're feeling and still going through. Can't wait to hear from you and keep smiling!! Hope to talk to u all soon:) Listen to INXS and dance like no one is watching!!! XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOOXOXOXOXo

I have such an amazing feeling whenever I come here as this place is all filled with love and this is all because of our dear Michael! His voice will live forever and ever remain in our hearts and all these lovely messages are a living proof that we love you, Michael with all our beings! I'm speaking in plural, smth I've never done but I feel that all of you who come here as much as I do share my feelings! Sonali, I'm glad you liked my e-card and I hope we'll “talk” again soon 'cause whenever you think and talk about Michael Hutchence, one can never stop! He's so amazing! All my love to you, Mike and as usual you're in my thoughts and prayers like nobody else!
Still love you, still miss you.....
A big hello to all my friends-...even though I've never met any of you, I feel like I've known you forever!!! Shell and Alice, thank you both SO much for yor email and card respectively. I was really touched! Well, the my Uncle's wedding went off really well (excpet this one moment when everyone was all quiet and solemn and my Uncle's cell phone started ringing and we all jumped!!!) and my Aunt is a lovely person, she's making a huge effort to get along with my little cousin. I miss Mike so much...well, thats getting a little repititive, but that doesn't matter!! I'm not crying about him as much as I used to, though the pain is still just as fresh as it was...Aidan, I can imagine how you must've felt about the U2 concert-thing...but you really shouldn't blame yourself...Mike wouldn't want that!!! God bless you all!!! Love you!!!
I am so grateful that Michael shared his gifts and talents with the rest of us, even for the brief time he was with us. His spirit lives on through his music...
eres el mejor cantante de los últimos 25 años,.... te extraño mucho,te quiero
The Love song never stops...........
The lengh of the friendship no measure of it's strengh.
Love me and I burn for you......
In loving memory of Leah

I never knew Michael, but I know his soul through his song. And I pray for his family and friends. It is hard to let a great man go.
I enjoyed INXS Music and recoginize Michael Hutchence as a talented vocalist. I hope he's in a better place.
Hi, Like everyone else who comes to this site, I love Michael and INXS and always will.. to me INXS is #1 of all time. Oh how I miss Michael, even though I never knew him personally.. I did know him as his songs echo'd my heart and soul, when he died I lost a brother, a kindred soul. I must admit that Michaels songs, his soothing voice, everything about him and INXS saved my live and sanity many times over...and when I heard he had died... a part of me died with him... but ya know. Love is the answer, Loving him spiritually and listening to their music now helps ease the pain of the world.
Hugs and love to all of you. Mary

God Bless Michael!
I been a BIG INXS fan since 1981. I will always remember 1997, that was the year that my brother and I saw INXS in concert twice (Phoenix and Atlanta)and the death of Michael.
Thanks for all the great music and memories!
A FAN FOR LIFE!
