I would like to share an experience I had last Thursday 12th December.
Since Michael's death, I have found it difficult to bring myself to listen to the music I loved so much - it was just too painful. I've been a fan since my first gig at the Adel Uni O'Ball in 1980. Its hard to believe that someone you have never met can have such an impact on your life. Anyway....for some reason on Thursday 12 December I was overwhelmed by a strong need to play the music - I was being compelled to do it. (I started with Underneath the Colours, then INXSive, then kept on going through the whole catalogue, including MaxQ and Michael's solo.) I knew Kell was gravely ill and was sending him my love and thoughts. As I went to the CD shelf a high frequency sound surrounded me and went through me - I thought then that Kell had probably left us. The news reports confirmed what I had suspected. At that point I felt reassured in the power of the universe, and knew that Michael and Kell were reunited. I know this may sound a little flaky, but its as it happened. Still… I can appreciate how difficult it is for Susie, Rhett, Tiger and the rest of the extended family at present - I have recently said goodbye to two precious souls from my own life and can only hope that my wishes find a place in your/their world to help you all mend. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Take care of each other. Jinnee xx

I just sent a lengthy Email with my condolences and heartfelt thoughts not only for Michael but now for Kelland as well.
I'm so sad today - and sad for you as well. Genuinely.
Since I just found this website today for the very first time, I wanted to share some of what's been pent up in me ever since I heard about this tragedy years ago, but had no way or means to convey my feelings & sympathies to you and his bandmembers.
Now I regret that I didn't find you in time to reach Kelland to share my love and concerns with him over his son. I had suffered from crippling suicidal depression at the same time Michael was going through his in 1997 (which I wasn't aware of at that time). But I would have loved to be able to share with Kelland about how depression affects your mind and emotions - how it happens and how it leads you as it progresses... and that those closest to you honestly have nothing to do with it and really can't change it (and hopefully don't take it personally); it's a process that has to be worked through yourself despite all the love you're given from family & friends.
After suffering from it for one year and understanding it, I have a deeper sympathy and love for Michael and what he may have been going through.
I am in tears after reading all the many entries and loving sentiments given for Michael. It's so beautiful and so very sad at the same time.
I love that this website was provided - it's extremely well presented, beautifully done and deeply touching and I'm grateful that you have provided it for us to celebrate and reflect on Michael's life. Keeping Him Close And Alive.
It's amazing that in being just a distant fan of Michael's/INXS' from the USA, (growing up with them on MTV and enjoying my “prime” in the more carefree 80's/90's) that I could be so heavily impacted by people I've never personally met. How they can play such a big part in your life without you even realizing it.
**I will never, ever forget the very first time their debut video aired on the ever popular MTV,“The One Thing” (when MTV used to be good *wink) - I KNEW right then that they were going to be huge here in the U.S. I was right! Not long after that, “Don't Change” aired and they cranked out one fantastic hit after another ever since.
The key to success on MTV back then was that even if a band couldn't carry a tune if they're lives depended on it, if just one of the band members was gorgeous, IT DIDN'T MATTER what they played - we wanted more *grin.
But Michael/INXS had the whole package: coolness, style, genuine God-given talent, intelligence and looks.
They were even able to sound great in concert which is very rare - I can only think of a handful of bands that can pull off sounding strong (not being winded, etc.) and staying in tune live - and Aerosmith is one of them.
They were in a league of their own! I also loved their range of instruments - which included the harmonica and saxophone. Amazing & awesome talents.
My friends and I fell in love with every song they created (and were extremely angry at unfair and falsely cruel media/press - God only knows the full damage the media creates to celebrities in it's hatefulness) and we'll never forget the great times we had during their brilliant career.
Very fond memories.
One of my favorite songs they ever made is “The Gift” - and they've sure given me a great gift through what they gave of themselves - by way of their time, hard work, perseverance and dedication.
I'd also like to say that I'm deeply indebted to you all for being thoughtful enough at the funeral service and throughout this website to include and acknowledge the deep love and heavy loss felt by Michael's fan base as well - those who loved everything about him and his beauty (both inside and out).
Thank you for including the people like me who weren't able to speak or be present in his life personally and who admired and respected him equally; in different aspects.
I truly wish that I was able to experience knowing him personally; he sounds like a wonderful, loving, polite, sensitive and thoughtful human being - I think anyone who knew him personally was blessed in this life. I would be thankful for that alone.
I at least have his forever powerful music that I continue to faithfully listen to and love and I'm grateful for that.
He truly did SHINE and I wish I could thank him personally for his influence.
There's just so much I feel and wish to express to you (and even his bandmembers if I could ever find an address for them) in more detail - but please know that you are all in my heart and prayers as another human being that cares and hurts when you hurt. Especially today as you give your loving respects to Kelland.
I pray that one day this world could be the place that Michael wished it was: full of true peace and love for one another.
May Michael and Kelland experience eternal peace together in each other's company.
Love and Peace to you all,
Nadiine

I was so sad to hear of the passing of Michael's beloved Dad - Kell. I wish all the Hutchence family a time of peace and reflection in such a difficult time, a magnificent family with such spirit will always get you through. Shine like it does.
My tears never seem to stop flowing...just this weekend I felt an overwhelming desire to hear Michael's voice, so I played his songs during a roadtrip I took. Now this! May God bless Mr. Kelland Hutchence's family. My prayers are with you. Kell was a very sweet man who just months ago sent me an email regarding a note I put on the guestbook. My heart goes out to the Hutchence family and friends. I'm so sorry for your loss.
Love,

I love you to bits Kell. There will be a big gap in our live's now that you have gone. But I know you were feeling such peace and so ready to cross over. If there is a Dee Bee's in heaven, please order me my usual and save me a seat. One day I will see you there.
Some of the best memories I have of my high school and college days seem to be vividly framed by Michael's voice, encouraging me to “Live Baby, Live!” There were beautiful INXS concerts, and we would be so tired, but really alive at the end, smiling, ears ringing; Everything was possible. I was driving to a job I never really liked when I heard of his death; I pulled over and cried and cried, mourning the silence which was the quiet slipping away of youth.
It breaks my heart to hear of Kell's passing. I went with friends to Australia for my birthday in 2001 and was there for the 4th anniversary of Michael where I met Kell, Susie, and Rhett. They were all so generous with their time and so sincerely nice to all of the fans who showed up. My friends and I had the opportunity to sit and have tea with Kell and Rhett. The two things that stand out about that morning were the good-natured ribbing between a father and son and how when I began to cry - tears streaming down my face - talking about Michael, they both comforted me. Kell took my hand and held tight as I got through what I was telling them. I would never be able to thank them both enough for that. What a kind man.
All my thoughts and love to Susie and Rhett and all the family and friends.

I have only just found this sight and want to say:
“I miss you Michael” - thanks for the great vocals and talent to make INXS so unique.
The gig at MENA 08-12-2002, was not the same without you!
God bless.

I was shocked and saddened to hear Kell had passed away. My thoughts are with his family at this sad time.

Growing up with INXS. How many concerts I went to, I can not remmber now. Thankyou to Michael Hutchence for making the music that meant so much to my life and many thousands of others. Still today as the music or INXS still blasts from my stereo, I believe he is where he wants to be, with the woman he loved and now the father he adores. How lucky they are to be together. Tiger will be a beautiful little girl with her fathers looks, heart and soul. thank you to Micheal and INXS for the music. Cheers.
In the depth of your hopes and desires lies your silent knowledge of the beyond; and like seeds dreaming beneath the snow your heart dreams of Spring. Trust the dreams, for in them is the hidden gate to eternity.- Thank-you for allowing the public to share such a beautiful creatures life through stories and pictures. My thoughts and sympathies are with you all. Both men were and are legends in their own right! XXXXX God bless you Michael and Kell.
JUST A MESSAGE TO SAY HOW SAD I WAS TO HEAR OF KELLS PASSING. I KNOW NOW YOU ARE REUNITED WITH MICHAEL AND TOGETHER REST IN ETERNAL PEACE.
LOVE AND BEST WISHES TO ALL THE HUTCHENCE FAMILY AND THE REMAINING MEMBERS OF INXS

The sad news of Kell's passing brought newfound grief to my heart, sure I cried, numerous times.
Then I stopped myself and remembered that these things happen for a reason.
Hopefully it was because Michael called for him.
Now they are together again for an eternity.
Rest in peace Kell' with your beautiful son, we all thank you for the memories you have left us.
I hope that you have taken all our love with you to share with Michael.
SHINE ON YOU BEAUTIFUL ANGELS.
Peace.
