Kelland, I have to praise you for making this such a beautiful webpage. It really shows the bright side of Michael, which the media never showed a lot of. I want to share a memory that is still so vivid- like it was yesterday. It was July of 1984, I was 12 years old- INXS were on their tour w/ the GO-GO's for 'The Swing'. I had been a fan ever since 'Shabooh' was released...and just HAD to see them live- so my best friend's mom took us to see them at the Dome Arena in Rochester, New York. We got to the front row- and I still remember the incredible stage presence Michael had. So vivid----them ripping into MELTING IN THE SUN. That stands out more than anything!!! I had this pair of black sunglasses w/ little white specs all over them- I handed them to Michael and he wore them during about 1/2 of their set. Well, I was 12, and that's what 12 year olds do....give their idols things. and that was the coolest thing ever - to have Michael wear my sunglasses. Now, at age 28, I still love INXS as much as I did when I was 12. I took pictures from that show, and still have them- I'd love to share them w/ everyone. I grew up listening to INXS- and how much I miss Michael's voice. As I am typing this, I am wishing I could find my Underneath the Colours album....it's in one of my numerous tape boxes that I haven't unpacked since I've moved. I so badly want to hear Horizons...that to me is one of the most awesome, and moving INXS songs.
I miss you Michael----you will always be in my heart. SHINE LIKE IT DOES....
*Kelland, my hugs to you, as you did a mighty fine job on this site! Just like any proud father would...Peace/Love, Cheryl

beautiful, sweet, lovely....
I remember clearly where I was when I heard the news. I turned on the tv, and closed my eyes... pretending it wasn't true. I'd have to say that his untimely death was the most influencial thing in my life thus far. He had a special gift. I wish I could've met him. This is a poem I wrote shortly after his death:
a life so fragile
like the wings of a butterfly
balanced so precariously
on the edge of the world
to fall at any moment.
extinguished by the hands
it has grown to recognize
as it's own
the self that was trusted
has so quickly turned
the other cheek
But I still see it there
in the wings of a butterfly
balanced so precariously
on the edge of a world
that has fallen out of reach.
Thank you for such a beautiful webpage celebrating the life of one of the most amazing and unique beings that ever existed.

I still wait to hear that Michael's death was only a bittersweet hoax. It seems so sad that his voice and his future are truly gone. His music was incredible, and his legacy--Tiger Lily--will never have the benefit of realizing first-hand what a beautiful, mesmerizing, moving man her father was. But, oh, how lucky that he was her father, however brief and poignant the time. Michael will be missed...but his music lives on!
What a beautiful way to remember a beautiful person. I saw Michael in concert 2 months before his death, and it was the most incredible experience. The reason: Michael invited any fans who wanted to to come up on the stage with him and the band while they performed. He was so free, and so open to people...even fans could see that without knowing him. His music and his memory will live forever.
Thank you for making such a wonderful site in memory of Michael. It is so nice to be able to come to a site that dwells on the achievements and the greatness of this man, rather then the questions behind his death.
It's been over two years since Michael passed away and I still feel emptiness inside me when I think of him. He was one of the greatest musicians of all time. You will live in my heart forever. God bless you, Michael. daniela
I love the way that his music touch us.
I'll miss his music and his pasion for her.
I'll never forget him.

This website is a wonderful idea for family, friends and fans to remember Michael. It's so hard to believe he is really gone. Such a talent will be truly missed. God bless you to his father and family for setting up this memorial for him!
MICHEAL, ALWAYS IN OUR MEMORIES
ALLWAYS IN OUR MINDS,

Te extraño. Extraño la ansiedad de escuchar un nuevo disco tuyo. Mis pinturas vuelcan los recuerdos mas queridos y los sonidos mas preciados.
Nunca seras olvidado.

I have just a tiny obsession with Michael Hutchence*L* but I know no one here can blame me. Living in Newfoundland I'm out of the range of most concerts, and being only 16 now, I haven't been allowed to travel to any of the INXS concerts, and it really hurts knowing that I will never get to see Michael in person (I don't mean to sound selfish,Michael will live on forever). To all those who knew and met Michael in the past i think of you as some of the luckiest people in the world and people like his family, band members, Bono are keeping Michael alive in spirit, by all these tributes. Also Michaels solo cd has not been released here yet : ( but only 19 more days, I'm already lining up*L* None of my close friends share my intrest so anyone who would like to share their experiences with Michael and INXS I would LOVE to hear about it, my email is sheenapower@hotmail.com.
Thanks

Not knowing exactly what to write. I'm moved by this tribute. I fell in love with Michael, as most schoolgirls did at the tender age of 12. Following him and the music of INXS was a part of my life. I was fortunate to have seen them in concert shortly before his death. It was my birthday, the best birthday ever. I was amazed to be with so many other fans, I guess never realizing how popular they were. It sounds stupid, but because of Michael, I have a thing for men named Michael. How odd. Anyway....I was saddened beyond belief to hear of his passing. But at the same time, feeling joy that he had been alive, and been part of music that defined a generation. Michael is a musician I can and never will forget.
Thank you so much for the wonderful celebration of Michael's life. He may gone from this life but his spirit will live forever through his words and music. His solo album is an amazing representation of his great talent!
What can one say when a light as bright as his is extinguished before its time. My sincere condolences to Michael's family and friends. He will always be remembered for the gift of music he gave.
i was very touched when i saw your memorial website not only because i lost my father two weeks ago. it's hard to believe that a beloved person won't come back again although i had at least the chance to tell him all the things i wanted to. time goes by, and you don't have bad memories about the person you've lost. however, life and death are strange things and maybe it hits us hard because we all live mortal lives.
i wish you all the best.

Thankyou for the great internet site. It is a tribute to yourself and Michael in the fact it is not a “hard sell” commercialised site full of bullshit and rumour.
Michael's memory will live on across the ages through his great music and charisma. He is sadly missed by millions worldwide and has been an inspiration and idol for myself.
Thank you very much.

This site was just what I needed to feel connected to Michael & his loved ones - Thank you for sharing so much personal and private moments with us, the fans. I was lucky enough to have seen INXS' for a second time on their last tour through Boston, MA only 2 short months before Michael died. I almost was unable to attended due to a badly sprained ankle but I trudged through the subways & streets on crutches and thank god I did or I never would have been able to forgive myself. They were on fire that night -Michael was electric in that small venue. He was climbing on these huge amps and then he came into the audience - it was magical and he was so beautiful. I was in love with his energy! I can not wait to hear his solo album (that is after I pry Full Moon, Dirty Hearts out of my CD player.)He is a force that is truly missed!
