Good night sweet Prince and may flights of angels bring thee to thy rest.

Perhaps this is not the place to say this. I suppose you should never believe what your read in the tabloids. But there does seem to be a lot of internal squabbling within the family and with Paula Yates since Michael died. (Again this is all just an impression I get from the media which may be completely inaccurate).

If that is the case..I urge you all to make amends. It will not be easy. Mr Kell Hutchence seems like a wonderful man who is completely devastated by his loss. But it is so important not to let any animosity creep in.

As a media watcher I have “known” Paula for years. Of course I do not really know her. I only know what I read about her. In her defence I will say that she is probably one of the most maligned women in Britain.

She and Michael were persecuted as a couple. Of course I cannot say that without admitting that at times Paula invited the press in to her life. She has a love/hate relationship with the press....a talented woman who has been overwhelmed by all the media attention she has received.

Michael was undoubtedly attracted to her quick wit...heaven help them both. It is one of the biggest ironies of their relationship that the english press hounded Paula for cheating on “Sir Bob Geldof.” (The English press doesn't give a damn about Bob...it just served as a saint/sinner analogy).

Everything is in black and white for the tabloids. Paula and Michael equals bad..Bob is elevated to sainthood. The whole situation was depicted in cartoon like terms with nobody really receiving a fair hearing.

Of course not that it was any of our business anyway.Nor is it really up to me to urge the family to make amends!!

The most important thing is that Michael will live on in our memory as a talented musician who had a short but fruitful life.

May all those who were blessed by his love gain solace in his memory. May Tiger grow up to respect her fathers legacy....and may Paula get back on her feet..write a best selling novel. Project her energy in to a worthwhile venture and make those tabloids eat humble pie!

Thank you for the site Mr K. Hutchence. I hope my comments will not anger anyone. I really hope to be a source of good in my own small....small way!

Best wishes to you and your family, and INXS

Warm greetings to you all... Mario, Jacky, Ange, Dennis, Mr Hutchence... (sorry if I left anyone out)

First I would just like to pass my congratulations onto the Hutchence family for the acheivements of late. That mural at the Hard Rock Cafe sounds breath-taking, and most certainly an honour well deserved for your beloved Michael. You must be very proud. I was in Sydney back in May for the Tim Rice/INXS shows and it was such a pity I had to go home before it was unveiled. Hopefully I'll get back soon to see it.

Secondly... great work on the site people. Thankyou to everyone involved for bringing us our own Michael Hutchence fan club... to do something as magnificent as this for us is a long-standing committment and expression of deep love and as a fan I am truly grateful. If you ever need any help let me know. It is the least I can do.

and now... here is a little something that was composed for Michael less than a hour ago. Through this wonderful technology of cyberspace a group of fans were talking about the new fan club when we decided to combine forces. This is the end result of a collaboration between myself, Nancy (Searching) and Marty (Lacavocal).

“Reminiscent of a Dream”
I watch you from afar
a distant figure up on stage
touched the lives of many
through the gift of your sweet sound

The music's got the rhythm
life pulsing through my blood
the lyrics got the soul
that will take me up above

Though you never knew it
you've held my heart in your hand
washed away this pain of mine
eventhough you were just a man

your words are an inspiration
they see me through my life
the sound, a new sensation
that fills my heart with pride

Now you are with the angels
watching us all from above
our faces misted with the dew of tears
for this star-crossed love

Your soul is like a shooting star
that is shining oh so bright
the sun's sweet rays will come on down
and take away the night
~~~~~~
Thanks,

Love Danielle (and care of Nancy and Marty too, who send their love)

Dear Kelland, thanks for this wonderful site!!! You are trully a GREAT bloke and I hope you know and understand that things have away of working out (in the end) and that we (my brothers and GB + KP) are doing everything we can to honour and respect your beautiful, much loved and painfully missed son.

Much love Kell, to you and Suzie,
Tim Farriss.

I just wanted to say that the INXS music and especially his solo album helped me a lot when I was going through a really difficult time of my life and I'm really thankful for that. I spent the last 7 months traveling through Oz and I listend to his music a lot during my trip. Ofcourse when I was in Sydney I visited his memorial side, that ment a lot to me as well, so that I could kind of thak him aswell! I will keep listening a lot to his and their music and especially his songtexts are important to me!

Thank you for this website! And all the best in the future!

I have visited this site many times.

It is so good to know that so may other people around the globe still have Michael in their hearts.

THE FLAME STILL BURNS. LOVE YOU MAN.

They say that time heals but I still look up at the brightest, shining star at night and think of you and how the world is an emptier place because we have lost you...

I only met you but once and that was even a chance meeting - if truth be told, I never was a big Inxs fan but after meeting you, I came away thinking what a truly beautiful man...I don't mean beautiful in the physical sense but a truly beautiful soul!

I truly hope that you have now found some happiness and peace in what seemed to be a very troubled life towards the end...rest in peace always dear Michael, you were truly a gentleman and very much loved and treasured by everyone who had the absolute priveledge of knowing you...

Australia will always miss your contibution to the music scene here and I know that Inxs will go on but it'll never be the same again......

I come here every now and then, just to say hi... it's like visiting an old friend. The days of tears are gone, mostly, and visiting the site allows me to smile now as I revisit the past.

I wanted to say two things. The first is that ANGEL has an incredible way with words and expression of feelings; that's a talent to hold on to with both hands! You have managed to put a salve on the wounds of so many with simple words. What you wrote was beautiful.

Second: Kelland, your site is a true testament to a wonderful man. Michael is allowed to live on here through the pictures, stories, and memories of you, your family, and the fans. Thank you for providing such an outlet. Looking forward to the fan club...

Love,
Jeanine

I used to have very good sensations with Michael's song, i still have them. We could never forget him.

As a Program Director/Broadcaster who grew up with Mike and INXS, I wish to say “Thanks” for a great tribute site, I have pieced together my own radio tribute to him here in Peoria, and also have played the solo project...I miss his spirit, style, and of course, music....Thanks to everyone involved here, and Thanks to Mike...Miss ya!

I just saw a picture in the fans section, from 1997 show in Atlanta, Ga. It's the only concert I've ever been to. When purchasing the tickets I purposly didn't spend much(cheap). Now I'll never see Michael/INXS again. Live life to it's fullest, you'll never know when you'll get another chance.

I could never undeerstand why he took his own life. I've listened to nearly all his music, and it is the music of a happy person.

What can be said when all of these wonderful and devoted people have expressed so much kind thoughts and wishes to the family of Michael ?

All that has left to be said is that there will never be another devoted father I will hold as highly a regard as Michael Hutchence.. I have enjoyed every piece of music, every song and every lyric he has ever done. Shine like it does Michael, we will always be with you.

Angel I just read your poem as well, you have such a talent to write such touching words straight from the heart. I only wish I could put my thoughts into such lovely words

God bless you Angel I'm glad your feeling better now.

God bless all Michael's family.

I still miss Michael and his music after all this time and for the first time since his death, I can now listen to INXS music,and feel Happy. Michael is gone but he will never be forgotten, and I hope that the rest of the Band will carry on, because they are very talented musicians and I wish them all the Luck and Love in the world!!!

To Angel, from Philadelphia; I am so touched by your beautiful poem. It goes right to the heart and I asked my family to read it. You said the things that I sometimes think I hear from Michael. I have always believed he was in peace, as he was a good man, kind and gentle and loving and his last two years were filled with turmoil and chaos -he deserved better and I believe he now has the peace he so longed for. He will watch over Tiger for us. Tina

I have never been such a big fan of Michael and his music, though some songs I could listen to over and over again. But visiting this site made tears come up to my eyes. He was really great, a shining star, a ray of light. Now I feel how much strength his music gives me and I am happy that I am just beginning to know him and his music better. And to love them.

Re: Bryan O'Connor's message on 29.5.00

I too remember the comment from the

Gallagher brothers at the BRIT Awards and I remember thinking at the time 'how dare they'. Take heart my friend, I am sure Michael is up in heaven now laughing at the sales figures of latest album from Oasis.

Interesting, sad and probebly a good idea - strange that there is no mention of the woman he idolised and the mother of his child, Paula Yates.

wonder why?

Michael,

Thank you for all the great music that will keep you alive within us forever. We can watch as Tiger grows and develops reminding us of what a wonderful person you are.

God Bless You

THANK YOU Mr Hutchence for sharing all of your personal thoughts, feelings, photos and profoundly enlightening view on what could only be described as a remarkable, if short, life and time of your lovely son Michael. I too lost a son named Michael in 1992 - perhaps they are looking over us and saying “It's only a matter of time before we meet again”.

Good luck to you and your family for the future - you have much to be proud of.
