To Kell and fans,
There is no doubt that Michael had no intention to take his own life. I believe this was simply a tradgedy that could have been avoided. I base these comments on my experiences with the anti-depressant zoloft. This is basically the Coke to Prozac. If you go unmonitored you can be in a world of hurt. Mix this with Alcohol and recreational use of other drugs and this is a bomb waiting to go off. If any fans out there have to take anti-depressants, please do not mix and stay in touch with your doctor. Remember the doctors really don't know what causes depression and they really don't know how the drugs actually work in the brain! That's why they tell you to avoid alcohol.
I think if Michael was reading this he would agree with me 100%. May he rest in peace and his memory live for every.
God Bless

“Till death do us part” (For Michael and Paula)- and others...
Best wishes for Tiger
In my thoughts and prayers as always. I haven't visited the site in a while but I am generally drawn back for whatever reason.
It is such a calming website. I suppose it makes me reflect on loss and suffering..but there is also the joy of contemplating Michael's talent. May he and Paula rest in peace.
It really is hard to believe that a couple as vibrant as Paula and Michael are dead.

How do you express sadness & joy simultaneously? This is how I feel. Immense sadness at the loss of such a talented and caring person (though I never met him, it is obvious from the writings of those who did, what a special character he was). Then at the same time all I need to do is put on my favourite INXS CD and soar with the music; feel the spirit he breathed into the music that he created with Andrew and the other guys of INXS. It is a joy.
I often wonder why Michael left us, as I am sure many fans do. I catch myself sometimes being annoyed at Michael for leaving, especially Tiger-Lily, as I have a son the same age; but then I realise I am in a different world & perspective to what he was then. I have to let go & just accept this, albeit with so much regret.
I would implore people to stop buying trashy “women's” magazines as a protest against the paparrazi, whos vulture-like mentality and unrelenting pursuit of a “scoop” have contributed to people's unhappiness and death. (include Lady Di here too). I also hope that Tiger-Lily is kept well out of the spotlight as she grows up in the love of her family. The last thing she needs is the media chasing her around reporting on every aspect of her life. Boycott these mags if you see her picture please, unless it is an official story that has been sanctioned by her family.
Well, that's my rant for tonight - thanks for reading if you're still with me.
I pray for the souls of Michael and Paula.
Love & Peace be with you all.

I was deeply moved by the photos and personal effects of this family-created website. I still get chills when I hear any songs sung by Michael. Our Wedding song was “Never Tear Us Apart” and will always be a part of our lives. I know that the emptiness I feel from not having the joy of hearing new music from Michael and INXS is nothing compared to the loss his family must feel. He truly was a gift given to the world for a little while who will be missed for years to come. I hope his memory will live on and this website is on the right track. God Bless.
I challenge anyone to visit this site without feeling the stinging of tears in there eyes, thank you Kell for sharing your experiences with those of us not fortunate enough to have known Michael. But Michael had that gift of being able touch millions of people through his music/lyrics, I wish i could have given something back to him.I'm sure he realised how much he helped people in what he and InXS have achieved. I can't sum it up in words, just thanks for being there when i needed something to keep me going. I will think of you, Michael everyday and will enjoy life to the full the way you would be if you were here now. See you in Heaven, Hutch.Love to beautiful Tiger,who is the the safe hands of a true Saint - Bob Geldof- you'll always have a friend in me. Thanks again Kell, you've blessed millions with this site.

I haven't visited this wonderful site for a little while now and I cannot believe how michael still touches so many lives, what a very special person he must of been. Think of you often Michael, will always be sadly missed.

Like the stars that shine so bright
Will soon hide in the dark
Like the heaven behind the Moon
I'll see you soon
Like the sea crashes in the shore
I feel your voice knockin' at my door
Like a mountain reaching for the Moon
I'll see you soon
And in time to come we'll meet again
But till then...
I'll miss you my friend

It was the extended club mix version of “New Sensation”, the very first record I'd ever spun in a nightclub...I was eighteen years old.
I was the first DJ to debut it at that club and that moment of MY first song debut as a DJ is forever a moment I will cherish.
Since “The One Thing” I've consumed the music of Michael and INXS. After seeing Michael's mystical on-camera performances in videos like “Need You Tonight” and “Never Tear Us Apart”, I wanted to BE Michael Hutchence.
After the masses had ventured on to new groups and grunge was rearing its ugly head, I happily felt like I'd become a member of a more exclusive club as a true fan of the group, continuing to follow Michael and the guys through every journey they decided to embark on with each new album release.
I was fortunate to be granted an interview with Gary (GREAT guy, thanks again Gary) on their “Full Moon, Dirty Hearts” tour. During that show I was able to photograph the band (especially Michael) up close. I will never forget that experience.
On July 22nd, 1997 I was the only authorized photographer at the INXS show at the Paramount Theater in Denver Colorado. It was the last show of their “Elegantly Wasted” U.S. tour. I was lucky enough to capture Michael in black & white and color. The only shots of Michael's last U.S. performance are now framed in my home.
I remember where I was when I heard it...it came over the radio as breaking news on Alice 106FM in Denver on a snowy November night. I was driving and had to pull over when it finally hit me. “God no...please God no” were the only words I could utter through tears. The man whose words and voice could put me in a better mood, no matter how bad life was; the man who I could sing with and sound almost exactly alike; my idol... my “Elvis” and the first superstar I'd ever photographed ...was gone.
Every 22nd of November is a tough day for me. I listen to INXS - “Live Baby Live” (live album) for most of the day and flip through my photos of him and the band...and I miss him.
Thank you Michael for your gift to me and the rest of the world. You will always be my Elvis...Elegant - but not wasted, for your voice lives forever.

Since I'm the younger generation that never experienced INXS the time they were present the most I rarely found myself listening to INXS records. But recently I listened to “Beautiful Girl” and suddenly so many thoughts ran through my mind. I remembered the news, tellin' me Michael was dead and although I was never an INXS Fan it shocked me. Somehow he was a part of my life that was always present and suddenly this part got kind of ripped out of my, and million other lives. And the moment it's away you realize how much it has been present without ever been recognized intensively...
He had such a warm and special voice and somehow I regret that I never gave it that much attention as I do now.
This website helped me to get to know a little more about this wonderful guy who gave the world a wonderful music which's gonna remain in our ears for good...I hope my kids will appreciate his sounds as well as I do now...
My thoughts are with his family, esp. his gorgeous daugher, lil Tiger Lily, and I wish I could have a silent moment at his grave to remember Michael.
Since that's not possible to me, I'll remember him with every note he sings.
“Stay with me . . .”
Sincerely,
Jamie

what a talented man! i find this bizarre as i dont even know him but i honestly think about him often....he had the best voice i have ever heard and the way he entertained his fans was magical
Kelland, Susie, Patricia, The Late Paula Yates, Rhett, Jon Farriss, Tim Farriss, Andrew Farriss, Kirk Pengilly, Gary Beers and Tigerlily Hutchence and of course all the fans miss a genius of the twentieth century. I have paid homage to this legend (though knowing how human our “stars” are); by seeing the stone memorial at Northern Districts Crematorium at Chatswood, Sydney Australia. What a peaceful place it was and how the fans had visited to do the same as I had. When I was young I went to 3 INXS concerts at the Sydney Entertainment Centre over the years, every time they played. I still think that they are one of the best live acts to this day. Though I never met any of the members of INXS I respect the dignity and hushed voices to preserve Michael's memory.
Others have hounded Paula Yates and Michael over the years, particularly the paparazzi in London, when all that they neededed was peace.
Though no more lyrics shall be uttered by Michael, the legacy and the music lives on.
In spirit he does shine, till next time.

Amanda,
I just read your post and felt compelled to answer you. I completely understand about your “Michael moment”. I have had many myself. They usually occur when I am feeling upset or depressed. Some may call them coincidences, but I honestly don't believe that. I won't get into the details, but most are way too spiritual and eerie for them to just be coincidence. I truly believe that Michael is out there connecting with those of us who love, respect, and miss him. When the moments occur, they always bring a sense of peace that I really can't explain. Sounds crazy, I know, but I simply don't question it anymore. Michael, wherever you are, know that your star will always burn brightly in many of us. Peace!

I truly loved INXS and do to this day, Unfortunatly this type of news scatters by in today society. I first heard of his passing just a month ago and could not believe it. Well my thoughts and prayers go out to you, the Hutchence family, and especially Tiger Lily as I have a 3 year old son and work that 9 to 5 job so that I can come home to him every night. I truly adored Michael for is talent and have sung along with his lyrics. Peace and god be with you always.
Michael's music helped me get through many a trying time....If you have any problems in you life, listen to his solo album. it is a brilliant mix of emotion and experience.

Hi,
I just felt the need to share this...I'm in college,and i was walking to class the other morning, listening to Elegantly Wasted at the time. I was just walking along, completely engulfed in Michaels voice, and thinking about everything that's been going on since school started,and thinking about how much I miss my best friend, and suddenly I felt as though I wasn't alone, I felt as if Michael were walking right there next to me...this calm feeling came over me, and instead of pouting, I began to smile...It was nice... 🙂
Thank you Michael!

I don't know why I keep coming back here...it always makes me cry.
Michael, I still miss you but I have wonderful memories recorded on tape to watch you again and again in all your glory. I recently asked Simon LeBon about the song he wrote for you. I never expected him to even answer and when he did his answer made me sad. I know he misses you, too. We ALL miss you. They say time heals all but I don't think that's true. There are a lot of things about 11/22/97 I will never understand. But they can't take the memories of you away from me. I only wish you were here now so we could see what new music you might have given us. I thank you everyday for the music you did give us and left us with. Music is a great healer for me.
Whenever I look into the sky at night and see a shining star, I wonder if that is you looking down on us and smiling. I hope where ever you are you are happy. And at peace. And knowing that all of us you left behind still miss you. And love you.

So beautiful. This site is exactly what we have all needed, it is as elegantly beautiful as our Michael. I miss him. His talent will never be equaled. The sweet honey of his voice will be around for many years to come, and when we hear his music, we will hear his life. The essence of Heaven. I love you Michael! God bless to Kell, Tiger Lily and the entire family. Our hearts are still with you; in ALL parts of the world.
XOXO,
