our thoughts are with Tiger and all of michaels family, he will always be missed but we have his music to always remember him by,we are one of the lucky fans who got to meet him in the early days when inxs was starting out and he was going out with the lovely michelle bennett and we became friends many times if we were going to a gig and could'nt get tickets michael always saved the day and would put us on his guest list. He was the so kind and we will never forget him.
a very talented artist will be missed by his many fans thank you for a great website to his memory..
Michael had a profound effect on my life, at the age of 9 i found the self titled inxs tape at a local shop and picked it up, i was engulfed by his voice...it carried me away, into a place only he could take me.
for years i listened and obsessed, by the age of 13 my hair was much like michaels and i would practice dancing like him and copying his movements for horrible homeade music videos, i dreamt of meeting hiom and the band.
in 1993 inxs plaed a concert in West Palm Beach, Florida and this was going to be my chance to see them perform, and to be in the same room as Michael.
I squeezed and and got to the front row, and ended up positioned directly in front of Kirk. Weeks before i had gotten a tatoo to remind me of this upcoming momentous occasion (and it payed off) it was the small behind view drawing of Jon from the “What you need” video, i got it from the 7″ record cover i had, and had it placed between my shoulder blades.
as the concert was getting to an end the kind people around me brought it to Michaels attention (the tatoo) by picking me up and spinning me round so the lights would hit it. He saw it and gve me the hand signal of being hot (shaking his hand and smilinig at me) in my weakness of knees the only thing that could possibly come out was a very meaningful “i love you” and he replied with “i love you too, babe” and i will never forget it.
Tim ended up getting a good look at the tatoo and after asking if it was real proceeded to give me the gutair pick he was using, but it was secondary to the i love you.
Then years later, and with no mtv or radio i had a dream about Michael. We were sitting on the edge of the bed in the room i had when i first fell for the man, and he flopped back putting his hands over his face, i leaned back on my arms...“do you know the effect you have on so many people? Do you have any idea how important you are to some of us??” his only reply was a muffled,“ you have no idea how hard it is....”
the next evening i found out he passed the day before, and i wonder if that night he visited all of us in his own way to say thank you and to help us understand why...i never will.

My thoughts are with Kelland and Suzie Hutchence and brother Rhett as Michaels anniversary draws near. A special mention must also be made of Paula who was two months death just a few days ago.
May flights of angels bring thee to thy rest.

A lot has been going on in my life lately. I recently caught VH-1's Behind the Music on Michael and taken immediately. “Slide Away” is one of the most powerful songs I've ever heard.
Michael was truly an amazing person, but still human. Worse(?!?), he opened himself, loved intensely, and became extremely vulnerable - even to himself. I am of the same spirit - and people think us weak. To them, we are more - much more - than our physical containers. Open up.
To Kelland: you have a beautiful, gifted son - always will you have him if you look in the right places.

This is such a wonderful site. I didn't get a chance to attend any of Michael's concerts. Although, I did by chance get to see many of them on TV. Michael was a very talented singer. He knew how to express his lyrics with such power. I grew up listening to everything he ever did. I've seen many musicians trying to get to what Michael achieved but, no one can be like him. He was simply the best...simply the best. He will be truly missed.
THIS WEBSITE IS FANTASTIC,JUST LIKE MICHAEL. I ONLY GOT TO SEE HIM IN CONCERT JUST THE ONCE IN 91 AT WEMBLEY AND IT WAS A DAY I WILL NEVER FORGET. IT IS JUST SO SAD THAT YOU ARE NO LONGER HERE, I DO HOPE THAT YOU AND PAULA HAVE FOUND EACH OTHER AND ALL IS WELL WITH TIGER R.I.P. SHELLY XXXX
“I know.”
Michael, you are always in my heart and soul.
Michael, you are always in my heart and soul.
As the third annivesary of your death is nearly hear, I cant stop thinking of you. I miss you so much,words can not express.xxxxx
Michael was a very talented man, who will be missed more than you would know. I dont think he realised how much we loved him in England and still do.
I saw INXS in concert only once, but I will always remember it.
It was magical, Michael was magical.
It was magical, Michael was magical.

I am really sorry, I had never chance to see and listen to Michael in live but I will always remember to my favourite voice and singer.
Thanx Mr Kelland Hutchence for making this beautiful website. I still can't believe Michael is gone, but this is a soothing way to pay tribute to him.
I love ya always Michael!
I love ya always Michael!
I am bewildered by the fact that I still experience the loss of Michael like it was yesterday I heard the terrible news. I still can't even listen to the old records. But it is a great consolation that there is a virtual monument to his life where I can say a little prayer and leave some of my sadness behind.
Many thanks to Kelland and also to whoever it was that arranged the moment of silence (on the day of Michael's funeral I believe it was) for the benifit of Michael's fans - as far as I know, no one has ever gone to such lengths to console people who they not only do not know, but who did not even know the deceased personally. The constant updates of the first memorial site also helped me (and many others, I am sure) to get over the initial shock by allowing me to partake in Michael's funeral, in a sense.
Michael's music touched me in a very personal way, though. Ridiculous as it seems to still be able to cry over a stranger three years after his death, here I am. But perhaps the fact is simply that Michael was so good at expressing many of my emotions that the loss of him was also a loss of myself. I mean I can't claim to have known him the least, I never even made it to a concert or put his picture on the wall. But I interpreted his lyrics and his voice in a manner that gave me both solace and joy. From “Don't Change” to “Disappear”, he always had a way of saying what I couldn't. And it was always as if he was telling me that “life can be terrible, but it is enurable”. Who will speak for me now? Three years later the void has not been filled.

After all this time I still can't believe he's gone. And now, with Paula at his side, I hope that he hass truly found peace with the world.His voice will live with us forever and so will his memory.Lots of love forever and always!!
A wonderful,sexy rock god. i still can't beleive you're gone.To the greatest, sexiest kick-ass rock star that ever lived. Wherever you are, I hope your'e knocking them for six.

Kell,i'm sending this after seeing the Laws interview.I for one will not be wasting my money on that book.i applaud the way you handle this terrible situation, and just want to say those who care can see through the pretenders, and agree with you on the matter of Tiger staying with her sisters would be the best thing allround. I wish you well.
Firstly, I would like to thank Mr. Kelland Hutchence and family for creating this wonderful tribute for Michael. From beginning to end, this site touched me deeply. Know that Michael is sorely missed by many and that my heart and soul goes out to you and especially to Tiger. Love you
Michael, and thank you for your legacy. You will never be forgotten!

It wasnt until Michael Hutchence passed away that i realized how much i respected and admired him.It is a sad part of todays society that we dont realize what we have or is there until something is gone.I first heard the music of INXS as a 15 year old and was an instant fan,but more than that i was intruiged by the lead singer.An obvious great talent and born preformer he had so much magnetism and i found it hard not to become a fan.If someone had asked me prior to november 1997 who is the person i would like to meet most in the world i would have said Michael Hutchence and the same reply would be given today if it was possible and probably until the day i die.There sre a lot of wannabe's out there but Michael was cool and had so much charisma because he never tried to be cool.When you try to be is when you are not.I watched his life through the tabloids like many of us did,dating supermodels,travelling the world and a seemingly endless parties but all was not as it seemed.I am glad to say i got to see Michael in concert on a number of occasions and always walked out feeling charged,almost like you absorbed some of his energy,amazing.I am currently reading Patricia glassop and Tina Hutchences book and am finding it thoroughly enthralling to hear about his life before he came into the spotlight and the lives of people he touched.I cant imagine the horror for all the family when Michael passed on but i know how i felt when i heard of his passing and i had never met the man.That in itself should be a tribute to a man who touched many lives of people he called family and friends and the millions of fans he never met.The book by his mother and sister is called Michael Hutchence,Just a Man,but i am sure to many of us he is much more and always will be.Rest In Peace Michael.
Yes I think it such a loss that Michael is gone,his music was the best,it made u want to sing,and he had such a great voice,I listen to him everyday,I just wish I could have gone to one of his concerts,Well Thanks for the great music and memories,We love you Michael
