Thank You first to Mr. Kelland Hutchence, for forming this site. It is truly beautiful, with wonderful pictures of the family that I only heard about in interviews, yet never had a chance to see. Tiger Lilly is absolutley beautiful...she looks alot like Michael.
Thanks to a close friend of mine, I began listening to INXS in High School, I instantly became addicted. High energy, fun, passionate music. It's funny, but I became such a fan that each member became a part of my family! I would talk about them like we'd been friends for years!!!! “Did you hear what Michael said on MTV last night?!”
Finding out about Michaels death was shocking, saddening. I could'nt believe it. My heart went out instantly to the family, the band, but more than that to Tiger Lilly!
I was also sad for all the fans, myself included, to all the music we may miss. Then I realized, putting my Cd copy of “THE SWING & other stories” into the stero, I have a lifetime of music! Songs that, years ago, I sang to as I walked to school everymorning, and songs that I will be singing to for as long as I live!
I cannot wait for the release of Michael's solo album next year....new songs to sing to, and each note will be even more special!!!
Once again Thank You...and God Bless to you and your family!

Thanks Mr Hutchence for giving us the fans a place to come to when we feel sad or feel like celebrating Michael's life. It is a beautiful memorial which every one can be proud of. Michael has given us so much and this is our chance to give back. Michael and INXS were and still are inspirational and have played a big part in my life.
You showed me how to chase my dreams and you showed me that you can achieve any thing if you show pride, dignity and respect. Thanks for the good times Michael you made a difference in my life.

“we all have wings but some of us don't know why...”
I stumbled across this tribute to Michael after reading about it in the local paper. I used to love listening to INXS in the 80's and think this personal tribute is beautiful. I'm sorry for the loss of your loved son and hope that over time, you feel just as close to him spiritually. Take Care.
Wow, this is a great site, i'm glad it came out. Michael will always be in my heart. Keep this page & Michael alive.
You know, words can't decribe what Mike gave to us since what he gave was inspiration. I like to think that this inspiration will live on and everyone who listened to his music will feel the same way I did. Miss ya Mike.
I grew up with INXS music and always had a poster of Michael in my room. I am now 26 and cried when I saw the news. To all his family I wish to say that no one truly ever dies and he walks by your sides forever...he is truly a beautiful man.
Great site Mr Hutchence. I have just read through it all and felt very touched and at times felt shivers through my body as I read contributors memories of Michael. I have been a fan since the late 80's and for many years INXS were the only music I listened to. Michael was my idol, throught those years, I tried to look like him (as a rock star) and talk and walk like him. Now, I still look up to him, but not as a rockstar but as a person, and after reading so many fond memories, it would be nice just to have one of his many traits as a human being. I still love the music, and the words, and the new solo album is something I know he would be very proud of, as I am sure you. All of the contributors seemed to have been very touched by Michael, and I think to know him would have been a great priveledge. I know I feel that just to have shook his hand at a gig at Sydney Uni in 93 and again in 94 and the Hordern. One of my greatest memories is when he was introducing a song as “one of our first” “Just Keep Walking” I yelled - he looked straight at me and nodded. Michael meant a lot to me and still does. Michael was a star, but still Just A Man, a great Man.
I have enjoyed looking and reading through the site. It is so nice to think many others out there miss Michael as much as I do. I have been a fan for many years and I am very excited about the solo album. I can't say much more, except I am deeply sorry for your loss.
Dear Mr. Hutchence,
I wish I could express how much Michael Hutchence meant to me and my youth. I, like many others, fell under Michael and INXS' spell after seeing the video for New Sensation on MTV. Maybe it was his eyes, his poetic words, or his beautiful hair...whatever it was it captured me forever. I was never privileged enough to have seen INXS in concert, but that never kept me from being one of their greatest fans. My cat is even named Hutchence in Michael's honor. (My cat is 8 and 1/2 years old) I was lucky enough not to hear that Michael had passed away on t.v., but I heard it from my mother who woke me up to tell me about his death. I cried for the next week, wore my pajamas that whole weekend, and even now I still cry sometimes for a life cut short that was so in bloom. He was my inspiration to be a better writer, a better friend, a better love, and of course to be a bold, exciting person. I always admired Hutchence's ability to take chances and to stand out in a crowd. Some of my only comforts in his death have been that I have a wonderful Austrailian friend named Chelse who kept me updated by sending me all of the magazines that were done in tribute to his death. I cherish all of my INXS Memorabilia, Videos and CD's, and I guess after 11 years of being a fan that's really all I have. I am so proud to say that Michael Hutchence gave me so much, and he inspired me to believe in myself. My quote in my senior yearbook in high school said, “Sometimes you kick and sometimes you get kicked.” Thank you for this beautiful website and for having a son who was such a wonderful person, talented artist, and his words continue to be an inspiration to my life.

“Let the Music Heal Your Soul”
Michael's music, either through INXS or solo projects, has always been a source of enjoyment, love and medicine for my soul. I have been extremely fortunate to have been touched by his musical talents and have had my soul healed my his music. This site does not only give fans like myself the opportunity to remember this incredible musician, it allows every fan of music to celebrate in the life of an incredible man. Kelland, thank you for using this site to immortalize Michael - a more than fitting tribute to a more than wonderful human being.

Even though Michael passed away almost two years ago, it still proves unbelievable. That night in November 1997, I attended a Duran Duran show in Cleveland. The amount of INXS t-shirts worn by the crowd was incredible. Simon LeBon spoke about Michael and Duran played an incredibly moving version of “Save A Prayer” dedicated to Michael and his family. Simon cried, everyone cried. They will be forever linked in my mind. As will Michael Hutchence's pure talent and gifts. Thanks to the Hutchence family and friends for this moving tribute.

This memorial site that has been provided allows each of us a glimpse of Michael Hutchence from a very personal perspective. In every interview I have ever seen, Michael had a way of making you feel like you knew him. Hearing Terence Trent Darby sing with INXS on MuchMusic had me crying again. I once more felt that emptiness I had the morning I heard the news. It was like I lost a part of myself that day. When asked why this band, why these songs, I respond that their music, his voice said exactly how I was feeling on any given day. But there is one thing I can truly say, Michael's singing could always bring a smile to my face. And for that, I will truly, forever miss him. You (Kelland), had a remarkable son, and for that I say thank you for sharing him with me and the rest of the world.
QUERIDO MICHAEL

Ever since “The Swing” I was hooked. He sang with such passion, and so many of his songs represent a certain moment in my life. We were blessed to have him, even for a short while.
This is a message to everyone who has posted here! I spent last night reading every single post, and cried through most of them. I love the tone of the heartfelt messages left here by fans who still love Michael. I also am impressed by all the names I have never seen before, from all over the world. I would just like to say, Michael, you are still loved so much, and missed so much.
It has been almost two years, and for me, there is a thought expressed in each post that echoes my feelings.
Thanks again Kell, Mario and Jacky!!! What a gift you have given all of us.

What a wonderful site. Thank you for the memories and for sharing it with us, the fans. We miss you Michael.
This memorial site is one of the most touching and elegant sites that I have read. The time, thought and effort from Michael's family and friends will be deeply appreciated from fans around the world. It is hard to publicly express your pain in losing a loved one - but the Hutchence family have done it with the utmost dignity. Thank you for sharing your life and times with Michael. We truly appreciate it.
Excellent memorial to Michael and his work.
I have been a fan forever it seems, and his music will always be an active part of my collection I have every INXS album/CD
He will live in our hearts forever....
Aloha Michael...

I have been a fan since 1983, and INXS's music helped me through some of the darkest times of my teenage years ... it uplifted me and made me feel like life was worth living. When I first heard the news of Michael's death I was deeply saddened. Thankyou Kelland for sharing your memories with us all.
