Michael will never be forgotten.
A fitting tribute for an absolute legend. I never got the chance to see INXS live. The closest I got was organising the planning stages with a bunch of mates to see Micheal and the band in Brisbane on 13 December 1997.
Fate had it not to be.
Just listening to the music of Michael and INXS whilst I close my eyes, makes me think about what might have been.
Maybe some things weren't meant to be.
Rock on Michael.
Don't change.

Dear Michael,
Like a rainbow fading in the twinkling of an eye - GONE TOO SOON
Like a perfect flower that is just beyond your reach - GONE TOO SOON
Like a sunset dying with the rising of the moon - GONE TOO SOON
Born to amuse, to inspire, to delight here one day - GONE ONE NIGHT
You are not dead, you are just GONE FOREVER!!
You'll always live throughout your amazing music!
Some of us don't know WHY!???
I MISS YOU
Love always,
Birgit from Austria

I recall being about 11 years old, and we had just gotten MTV. One of the first videos and songs to ever make an impact on me was INXS's “The One Thing.” I loved the brashness of it, a foodfight set to music! Most of all, I was immediately drawn to the charisma and talent of the lead singer, Michael Hutchence. I became a fan on the spot, and their music saw me through a sometimes rocky adolescence. I am 28 years old now, and I am a fan for life. The news of Michael's death stunned me so much, that occasionally I have difficulty believing it is true.
Thank you Kell, for this beautiful site, a fitting tribute to your son and the gifts he left us, such as his music, his life, and the beautiful Tiger Lily. Blessings to you!

Great website and a wonderful concept. Michael had a profound impact and this site will certainly help those who were inspired by him deal with the tragedy of his death and the resultant emptiness.
Michael will always live on in the hearts of his family, friends and the fans.
It should not matter how he left us, only that he made millions of people happy and gave them a way to escape the best way he knew how.
May his memory and his music live forever.

JUNE 10 1997 NEWCASTLE ARENA WAS ALIVE TO THE SOUND OF THE GREATEST BAND IN THE WORLD. MICHAEL WAS MAGNIFICENT (AND AS GORGEOUS AS EVER TO SAY THE LEAST) AND THE BAND WERE CERTAINLY AT THEIR BRILLIANT BEST. WE LOVED MICHAEL THEN & JUST AS MUCH NOW. WE HAVE GREAT ADMIRATION OF KELLAND HUTCHENCE'S DIGNIFIED SUPPORT OF MICHAEL, HE PUTS MANY OTHERS TO SHAME! MICHAEL IS ALWAYS IN OUR THOUGHTS HERE IN NORTHUMBERLAND WE WILL ALWAYS THINK OF HIM AS THE BEST.LOVE YOU FOREVER MICHAEL XXXXXXX
What a wonderful site to a wonderful human being!!! Please keep it going I will come back many more times!!!!
Hi, what can I say, for me INXS is all, I grow up con them, now I have 27 years old, since 15 I know them, and are very special. Was in my holydays, i was drinking beer and smoke a cigarette, when I hear Need You Tonigth, was like BOOM, I like this song. Now I have all your CD's, and I cry when Michael was found dead, I can't believe, the man who I admire was dead, I cry and my mother could understand my feeling, my father and bother think, he is crazy, but now, I lives in me, his spirit never die, Michael was only, and only one, no one can replace, he mean a lot for me, and the band too.
Thanks for your talent, music and inspiration, you touch my soul, and when I hear your music, I dance, I'm free, for just one moment, in the place, I forget the world and dance, and song.
Good bye. César

Thank you Michael. Thank you INXS.
I became a huge fan of INXS from the first time I saw “The One Thing” on MTV too many years ago to mention. Shortly thereafter I caught them live for the first time at St John's University in Queens, NY opening for Adam Ant. I was totally blown away - what an incredible live experience. From that day on they were my faves. I had the pleasure to meet all of them in '84 after a show at the Beacon Theatre in NYC. They invited us to an afterparty & they couldn't have been nicer. I remember dancing with Michael to “Burnin' Down the House” like it was yesterday. What a sweet & very funny man. As luck would have it a few years later I started working in the video department for Atlantic in New York. Michael always made a point of stopping in to say hello whenever he was in town for press & shows. He brought Ollie in when they were working on the Max Q project & made a point of introduction cause my name is so similiar to his brother's. The connection continued when I went to work for Mercury in '92 and INXS followed shortly thereafter. He will always have a special place in my heart & his memory will go on for years to come. Love ya & miss ya!
The first concert that I ever went to was INXS. My mom took me, I was only 10 years old. I loved it and fell in love with INXS. I was addicted to their music. No matter what mood I was in Inxs always made me feel better. They became my comfort and security. I was unbelievably saddened by the untimely death of Michael. I had so much love for him and the rest of INXS.It hurt to know that just by listening to INXS' music I could easily lessen the pain and stress of my life but there was no way for me to do the same for Michael. I will always remember, love and admire Michael and INXS for all that they have done for so many people. I wish love, strength, and peace to all of Micheal's loved ones and Inxs.
Thank You,

I absolutely loved Michael and enjoyed the many performances that I saw of INXS, nothing moved me as much as seeing Michael on stage, he was memeorizing. I truly miss his work and I listen to their music over and over again, wishing he were still with us. This web site is so thoughtful and nicely done. It seems that Michael grew up in a very loving and encouraging home, which is nice to know that he had a good childhood. I just wish he could have continued to reflect back on all the people who obvoiusly cared so deeply for him and would have done anything to help him through the tough times in life. I only hope that he is happy where he is now, miss him dearly ,thanks for the memorial and information on his life.
Like many others who have posted hereI also saw INXS play live in their early years quite a few times. I have to say I was always astonished at Michael's talent and charisma. What was even better though, was finding that this guy was so friendly and sometimes shy offstage.
Congrats to all associated with the site, it's a fitting tribute to a wonderful and talented guy.
Peace

The website is a fitting tribute to a great Austrailan.
It is so beautifully presented reflecting the nature of Michael.

This is a nice place to come to heal. My sister & I saw INXS in concert more than 6 times, the last being at the Warfield in San Francisco less than 4 months before Michael's death. During the concert Michael joined the crowd for a drink... a double vodka tonic at the bar in the back of the room. Suddenly he became one of us, joining in the celebration of their music. The band didn't miss a beat and added to our joyful experience.
We remember leaving that night with such elevation of spirit and great anticipation for our next get together. Their next world tour was only months away, an eternity it seemed. We've never had a party without INXS being present and we have introduced them to all of our friends. They were well worth the two night camp outside of a local music store for concert tickets.
I called Merry at 12:00 AM the night I heard the news. We just cried together in disbelief. All of our memories came flooding back and suddenly their music had new meaning. Our Michael, our friend, thank you for our memories.
We would also like to take this opportunity to tell Andrew, Tim, Jon, Garry, and Kirk that we miss them terribly and hope this isn't the end. For such a talented and inspiring group of men to stop now would be another tragedy.
We love you all.
Mr. Hutchence,
Thank you for giving the fans the chance to say farewell and help begin the healing. Hopefully in receiving all of these notes it is helping you heal too. We were all very fortunate to have such a beautiful man touch us the way he did.
Happy trails to all who find this and love him as much as we did.
Until we meet again, Michael, peace & love.

Thank you very much for this beautiful website. I grew up listening to INXS, becoming a devoted fan ever since I first heard 'The One Thing'. I was 18 when I had my first opportunity to seem them live. I stood outside in freezing rain for over 4 hours just to get tickets. The show was incredible! I will never forget the experience. I now get a kick out of watching my daughter dance and groove to their music. Michael's work will always serve as a source of happiness and inspiration to me. For that, I am forever grateful. Thank you!
Thank you for setting up this website! I have been an INXS fan since I first heard The Swing, and will continue to be a fan for many many years. I am very fortunate to have seen Michael perform more than 7 times, and each time I saw him onstage, he blew me away. To this day, I still think about him and miss him very much. This website is a wonderful tribute for such a special person, singer and entertainer. Thank you!
What a wonderful site for a truly amazing, engaging, sensual man. I have never been so moved by the death of an entertainer before. I never had the opportunity of meeting Michael personally though I wish I had. I saw INXS in concert in Lexington, Ky. in 1985 or so and they were fantastic, but Michael just oozed sensuality! I have been a fan for over 15 years and still listen to his music daily. I am anxiously awaiting the February release of Michael's CD in America. I cannot wait to hear his voice again. Though his death saddens me still, I am able to dance, smile, and sing along with his music, videos, and especially the Live Baby Live concert. I continue to grieve his passing. It hurts me to know he was in such pain and felt there was no one to comfort him. But now he is being comforted by the arms of God and his heart is at peace. Kelland, you were truly blessed to have Michael as your loving son as I am sure he was blessed to have had you. I pray for you, your family, and your granddaughter, Tiger. Peace and love.
I must say Micheal was the most beautiful man.I was lucky enough to meet him at the Honeymoon show in Atlanta.He was sweet to give me back stage passes over the radio the only sad thing was that I arrived late and the people wouldnt let me use my pass and when we tried to get in he said to security let them in but security didnt listen.I t was the happiest day of my life to even be breathing the same air as him.I got to get on the tour bus the other band memebers let us on.They even invited us to the hotel but at the time and bad timing it was I couldnt go because I had a boyfriend but I will always have that found memory and the best nite of my life.I love you Micheal
This is truly a beautiful site. In so many ways, it touches my heart as does Michael's songs. Michael's death was a tragedy, but he left us with so much to be thankful for. Thank you to Michael's family for sharing with us precious childhood photos and memories.
Michael had an incredible sensitivity to the world, to human emotions and essentially life itself.
His songs have taught me to pay closer attention to the world around me and to feel.
