Michael was not only physically beautitul, but had a voice which was a gift from God. I will listen to his music always, and miss him forever.

Michael was my heart. Through his music he made all who loved him feel as though they really knew him. He was beautiful, talented and sexy. He will always be alive in my memory. Each time I hear his songs it's as if he'd never left, and oh how I wish he were still here.

To the Hutchence family - I was looking for a video of a movie that Michael was in back in the 80s (“Dogs in Space”). I think I was just discovering his music, then saw him in the movie, and just recently, I decided

I needed to have this movie. I'm not sure what brought it on, but I really felt the need to be connected to it. I have always been a lover of the music of INXS and was devastated at the news of Michael's death. As with any news like this, I chose not to believe it at first, but eventually let it sink in. His loss is a tragic one - he's a soul never to diminish in our memories.

I think that this site is a lovely homage to Michael.

It is so obvious that you loved him very much and this site dedicated to him is a loving tribute. I was very touched that you have allowed us to visit your personal and private pictures and memories of him. You have honored him so well with this memorial. Thank you so much for allowing us to share Michael with you for awhile.

With sincere best wishes to you,

Lee Ann Due

What a wonderful site. I am so glad a site like this has been done not only to mourn but to celebrate the greatest musician Australia will ever produce.

I am 28 years old and I have grown up with Inxs on my stereo. I have seen alot of bands. From U2 to Paul McCartney to Billy Joel to R.E.M. Of all these shows the one I find most memorable in all honesty was my one and only Inxs show. I still keep the ticket in my wallet wherever I go. I miss you Michael. But I will not forget you. You were Australia's son. We will love you forever.

Dear Kell, family, and friends,

Thanks for creating a website in loving memory of Michael. I still miss him, as I know his family and friends miss him. I never met Michael, but I was a big INXS fan for many years and I did attend three fabulous INXS concerts in Santa Barbara in the 1980's. (I am proud to say I recognized INXS' talent long before they hit it big in the U.S.) I particularly enjoyed Michael's lively stage presence. His energy, his wit, and his music were special and those memories will live with me forever. He was someone I would have liked to have called “my friend”. I still kick myself that I didn't attend INXS' last concert in Santa Barbara to promote “Elegantly Wasted”, but I wasn't “a shy groupie” anymore and I had a lot of things going on in my personal life then. It was my choice and I have to live with that decision. I couldn't believe it when I heard the news and I kept thinking I wish someone had been there when he needed a friend. I know you have probably had those thoughts too, but what can you do except to rationalize and go on. I know Michael would have wanted all of us to be happy. I hope he has found peace out there in THE GREAT BEYOND. “LOVE AND PEACE” to you all.

Best wishes,
K.

This is an amazing website. I discovered INXS when I was fourteen (I still am!). My dad had recorded the Live Baby Live concert, and at fisrt to me, they were just a bunch of people in cool clothes bouncing around on the stage. But then I sat down and really watched it, and I realized I was in love. The music INXS makes is amesome, and I was blown away by Michael's beautiful, amazing voice. But I also developed a huge crush on Michael. And the day my father told me he was dead, I was crushed. I still am. But I want you to know that I'll never get over the music, and the memories that Michael made. He was a great man.

I live in London, ON Canada and listened to Mr. Hutchence on FM 96 this morning. I admire the courage and grace with which he spoke of his late son, a true father's pride in his voice.

Michael's life ended far too abruptly, far too young. His music will leave an impression on our generation, for all time. He is missed by many fans and admirers, but one's heart must go out to his family.

Gone but never forgotten.

It has been designed so beautifully!

I fell in love with Michael the first time I saw the “Burn for You” video. I've been a huge INXS fan since that day. I reacted to news of his death with great sadness and disbelief. I am so grateful for the gifts he left us, especially his solo CD. I love it more each time I listen to it. Thank you, Michael, for touching my life. I miss you every day. Thank you, Kelland, for this wonderful website. I really loved reading about the memories and stories.

Love Always,
Monica

Hello. i have just viewed all of the responses from all over the world to this website and it is great to know that so many people out there feel the way I do. I discovered INXS and Michael when I bought Kick as my first album ever when I was 11 years old. I loved them so much that i went out and bought all of their older albums (which isn't easy in a small southern town). I fell in love with Michael's words and his inflections on them. It was always so nice to hear what he was up to and what musical gifts he would give us next. This world is much less colorful and romantic since he left. But every day I think about Michael and the loss for his family and for the world. If only he truly understood how much we really loved him, and his true fans didn't even care what ugly things the media had to say about him. We just wanted to catch a glimpse of this amazing man. Kell, thanks for this website, and for letting us drone on like this!!! I am going to Sydney for the first time next week, and I can't wait to see Michael's memorial and be the closest I will ever be to him.

Michael, we love you! We miss you, and we wish you were by our side!!!

Michael was an incredible singer with more soul and more heart than most any musician I've ever heard in my life. You could see that look in his eyes that look of true passion. I often wonder why, but I think everyone knows why people like Michael and Kurt decided to end it. Can you imagine not being able to walk down a street like a normal person? To be unnoticed by passer-by? Plus all the other negative things that come with fame and fortune. I'm sure some can lavish in it, but people with a spirit as free and peaceful as Michael's I'm sure, feel trapped in their own world. I can surely say that it's how I would feel especially after awhile. I cry for you Michael, the archangel, I cry and hope you are set free in the afterlife.

Peace, love, and empathy,

Forever,
Sympathy

He gets under your skin. The person, the music. I hope he knew, and knows now how much the world loves him. He's not gone he's just up in Heaven singing with the angels.

Much love and Prayers to all the family and friends.

When I was a teenager, I had a best friend named Sarah. She and I loved INXS. We must have seen them in concert a dozen times. We saw them when they were still playing small concert halls in the States. I also remember Sarah and I getting up around 2 a.m. to watch the Australian Live Aid with INXS headlining. I cannot tell you what joy it brought us to listen to INXS' music and to watch the band live. Of course, Michael's presence and passion drew us in even further. My dear Sarah passed away in 1989. I could not bring myself to see INXS again in concert without her. Then, on Memorial Day weekend 1997, INXS was to play in Kansas City. At this time, I was engaged to my future husband, William. By the time I had heard of the concert, we had had plans to travel that weekend and would not be able to see the show. I told William, who is also a fan, that I had an urgent feeling that we should cancel the trip and see INXS. He assured me that I would see them again..... Unfortunately, that was the last time INXS came to my hometown. My William felt very guilty, but as I told him, I have wonderful memories of seeing Michael when the band was young. I know that Sarah is listening to Michael sing up in heaven right now. Thank you, Michael, for all of the wonderful memories.

Dear Michael,

I still lie here night after night with memories of your beautiful soul. Your image and voice are in my mind and heart as though you never left. I play lots of the same songs night after night that remind me of you. One that makes me feel the most at peace is “With Arms Wide Open” by Creed. I always picture it as God welcoming you into heaven. I see him with sunshine all around and opening his arms as you get closer and closer to him. Another is One Sweet Day....Mariah Carey and Saint of Me...the Stones. This may seem odd but they all do remind me of you. There's lots more but I know I can't go on forever. You will always be with me Michael.

My Love Forever,

Julie

This is a very beautiful site to remember a very talented performer/artist. I thank him for the songs and being kind to me and I Thank you for helping me keep his memory and music alive.

He will never be forgotten.

I just wanted to say how very much Michael is in my thoughts. For 20 years (and still) he touches my heart. I last saw him in St. Louis, (the night Princess Diana died) and was fortunate enough to be so close to watch. I remember a group of handicapped people seated to my right, and one, being a blind man. How I will never forget Michael coming down to him during a song, and grabbing the man's hands to put them upon his face, so the man could “see” him, for the whole song. I will never forget about him and INXS, and am sorry that he isn't here with you and Tiger.
