Dear Kell & Family,
My name is Dannielle and I'm a 16 year old fan of the late Michael Hutchence.I guess it's easiest to say how sorry I feel for your loss and Tigers' sad misfortune, but no matter what words are used to soothe the pain the wound never completely heals.I have never been so touched and fond of such a talented and beautiful person before. Michael is a huge motivater in my life.Whenever I think life is too much of a struggle, I go and listen to any one of my favourite INXS songs and feel like there's no need to feel so alone and downhearted.
I can still remember the exact moment when I heard the report on the radio about Michaels' death and felt like something had been taken away from inside of me.I still wish I could have met him or seen him perform. Although his music is still there it's nowhere near close to being the same feeling of awe and happiness combined when you meet someone like Michael.
I just wanted to share my feelings and thoughts so hopefully you'd know and understand. I guess that no matter how long someone lives for it's never long enough for you to apprieciate all that they are.
Sincerely
Dannielle, Melbourne.

Still missing you deeply,
Could you be the one that I love?
All the pain and pleasure gone....
Without you...............

My third stop here since October. As an artist, I wanted to reiterate these words from Mike (they soothe me whenever I'm feeling low)
..the navigation of desire in my heart
leads me, leads me, across the oceans before it
horizon...I can see your face now
so long, so long, I must say
good-bye now
..I see the horizon of your love
..I see the horizon of your love
(1981 INXS, 'Underneath the Colours')
Thanks Michael, missing you terribly.
Love to the Hutchence family

To this day,I still can't belive that Michael is gone,I can still remember driving in my car on a Saturday morning when I heard of Michael's death on the radio,I was stunned,why,how? Of all the people in the world he had
everything,talent,looks,fame,fortune,
but as I talked about him to a friend of mine,she said despite of everything he had,you never know what was going on in his mind. I would like to think Michael is in a happier place now and I know that his music will live on in my heart forever. I have his solo cd and “Slide Away” is one of the most touching songs I've heard in a long time. Michael had a very distinct voice and I could not listen to INXS with someone else,no one could fill his shoes. I have heard rumors that the band has dozens of unreleased material and hopefully one day it will surface as a tribute to a true artist...Michael Hutchence
Rest in Peace...Brian

This is such an amazing place. I'm always come here because I don't have the chance to go to Autralia to visit the place where Mike rest. I got to say thanks to Kelland Hutchence for this beautiful place. Mike will be always in my heart
I remember May 23 1988, the day Michael and the band played Northlands Colliseum. I probably had the worst seats in the whole building, but it didn't matter. The last big venue I have gone to. I have no desire to change that fact.
Michael I wish I could have told you to your face that I think your version of IGGY POP'S “The Passenger” was the best version I've ever heard. Better then Iggy's and better then Siouxie and the Banshee's version. The Ultimate your version was
Looking through the recent entries in the guestbook of this wonderful site (thanks heaps Kell) I would like to say I completely agree with Andy French from England. Elegantly Wasted was unfortunatley the last album by INXS any future work the remaining members of INXS do will not be done as INXS because the life force of the band was MICHAEL HUTCHENCE. The most respectful thing the rest of the guys could do now is to announce that INXS is finished and if they want to continue putting out new music it should be under the name of The Farriss Brothers or something else. Not to mention the fact that I am very disgruntled that the rest of the guys had not done anything in memory of Michael, just seems vey strange that we've heard nothing about the tribute album the guys spoke about. Imagine how many fans would be so interested to hear previously unreleased material of Elegantly Wasted etc. I just hope that they have their own reasons(I hope they're good ones) So it looks like no tribute album from the guys what a shame after 20 years together, and I thought they were like family. Hoping my comments are not misconstrued as INXS were a fantastic band all 6 members were special in their own way but Michael's velvet voice & haunting lyrics and stage presence(pure sensuality)were the spear head of the band as excellent as the rest of the guys were musically,they complimented each other, But Hutch was the ultimate. He was as they said a ROCK GOD Australia's only one THE LOVED ONE.
To you Hutch,
I hope you are chasing the angels up there, but going by your track record the angels will be the ones doing the chasing. Love & Peace Bro.

A great loss. There are simply no other words that are fitting enough to say that will enable me to pay tribute to this great man.
Love & Peace
Love & Peace
Thinking about Michael and INXS always reminds me of my teenage years and how crazy I was about him. He was my idole. As I gained in maturity, I realized that there was much more to him than his good looks. He was a Great musician and song writer. I cried when I learned about his death and still feel nostalgic every time I think about him. Thank you Mr. Hutchence for letting his memory live on.
I think this site is a wonderful tribute to Michael. Being of similar age to Michael and having followed the band's career since the late 70's/early 80's, I feel so sad about Michael's death - at times I still find it hard to believe that he is no longer with us.
Thank you for sharing so much with Michael's fans - it is greatly appreciated.

i found this website purely by chance.On the day of Michael's death I was shocked and horrified beyond words.
I've grown up with Michael's(and the rest of the band's)music since I was about 16(I,m now 32)and feel like I have got to know him(and them) through their music,and like so many of the other fans that have responded to your web-site feel a personal loss.
This is a brilliant and fitting site to Michael's memory.It is dignified and respectful and I thankyou for setting it up
I listen to his music regularly,even more so now,and feel that he is still with us when I hear his voice,but it took a long,long time to come to terms with it(as I suppose so many fans do)even though most of us never met Michael.
I can't believe that the rest of the band are continuing on as INXS,Michael was INXS,and anybody else singing his songs just won't be the same.
As far as I am concerned,“Elegantly Wasted”is and always will be the last INXS album that was ever made
God bless you all,and peace be with you.
Love,
Andy.

“...You walked the longest walk
Talked the toughest talk
You were outside, something inside
Took away the words, want to hear again
You were outside, something inside..”
Michael, i'll never forget you
Talked the toughest talk
You were outside, something inside
Took away the words, want to hear again

Michael, i'll never forget you
I'm very like Michael.He was great singer! MICHAEL-FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!
I cried when Micheal died. Such a talent lost to the world. I wanted more than anything to see INXS in concert. I love their music and his voice. What a tragic loss for all.
Michael, sometimes, when I read stories to my two beautiful children as they go to sleep at night, I think about you, your sweet daughter Tiger Lilly and about what might have been. I'm glad you got to be a father, sad that you won't be here (physically)for Tiger. I feel sure you were a loving and fun Daddy. When you died I felt as though I had lost a brother. I watched your funeral on TV and cried with my wife. As Bono sings in 'Slide Away', “you tore a hole in space”. How do I fill the hole Michael? I keep listening to your music!
I know nothing,
grow old,
look wise,
Never knowing 'til I die
But I'll keep listening...I'll keep listening.

May God Bless You Michael. Rest in Peace.

Beautiful man; gentle, strong and large,
a gift shared with the world,
giving from his heart.
A voice of liquid gold,
words to touch your soul,
A heart so big, he gave it all,
Why God, did you let him fall?
He left behind heartache and pain,
so much emptiness, they will never be the same.
His spirit burns so brightly across the sky,
Why God, did you let him die ?
Love, happiness and joy he left for us all,
a life too short, but something did call.
In the eyes of a little girl, his soul does show,
Born from love, passion and hope,
his spirit in her heart will grow.
A heart so big and eyes so deep,
in love and courage, her mother will keep.
Gone in body, but never in soul,
his words left in hearts across the world.
One so special, spreading the word of love,
Keep him in peace, forever, above.

The voice of your son, Michael, has been the background music of much of my life (I am in my early 30's). There were so many wonderful songs done by INXS, songs that no other singer could bring into so many hearts and souls.
At my wedding in 1995 the song, “Not Enough Time” played in the background of the reception when our camera man captured my mother on video. She died two years later of a sudden heart attack, and each time I watch the video I hear your son's voice telling us there was not enough time - for her or for him. It's an incredibly spiritual moment and no one can tell me it was coincidence.
When I heard that Michael died, a part of me died with him. I grieved right along with the rest of his family, friends, and fans. It's hard to express the feeling of loss when the only thing you ever knew of someone was their voice drifting in across the radio - but it is a genuine loss indeed.
With his passing the world lost a person of great talent and beauty. I can only be grateful that his voice is only as far away as my CD case.
Thanks for listening.

dear mr Hutchence,thank you for this website,when someone like Michael dies we,the fans, feel lost,so to have somewhere to express how we feel is just great.I get really angry with the media and the way some of them portray Michael,even though i didn't know him, i do know he was a gentleman,a fantastic songwriter,singer,and above all showman,i seen INXS quite a few times in concert, and i have to say they were outstanding,it was always so emotional. When i found out Michael had died i couldn't breathe, i got on the phone to my friend and we both cried, we really felt we had lost a close friend, i can't even begin to understand how you and your family felt at that terrible time.But on a happier note Michael left us Tiger,what a beautiful girl she is, and i'm sure Michael is watching over her.One more thing, we also have Michael's music and brilliant voice to listen to, be proud and most of all be happy,Michael is in a better place where no one can hurt him,love to you and your family love SANDRA xxx
Just got online, the first thing I wanted to look for was something about Michael Hutchence and INXS but never for the life of me thought this would be the site i would be seeing. well i'm here now and i'll browse through. wanted to say to michael's family, be proud, he was the best. we still listen to his magical voice and will never forget the man that we saw in concert countless times in sydney and wollongong. love is beautiful.

Dear Sweet Michael...Everyday, from now until I die, I will think of you and miss you deeply. How is it possible that you have touched my life this way? You will always be a huge part of my life. Thank you for being such an inspiration to me (you know what i mean). Thank you for reassuring me that there is somewhere better for me. I owe you so much, Michael. And I know that one day we will see each other. You gave so much in life...and continue to do so in death. I love you so much Michael...I truly ache in my heart, stomach and from the bottom of my soul, for you.
I LOVE MICHAEL AND I ALWAYS WILL. I MISS HIM SO MUCH ALTHOUGH I NEVER KNEW HIM PERSONALLY, IT FEELS AS THOUGH PART OF MY FAMILY IS GONE. I WILL LOVE HIM FOREVER........
