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.

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.



Thank you Michael for sharing your life with us.

This website is a true tribute to one of the greatest men in rock. I have met the guys from INXS a number of times over the last few years and they are a great bunch of guys, a family. The loss of Michael was truely tragic, he touched a lot of hearts over the years and will never be forgotten. I got his solo album the day of its release and it is truely magnificent, some of his best work. From reading this guestbook, it is obvious he was adored worldwide. Michael, you'll be remembered, adored and loved eternally.

I have just been going through your website. Thank you for taking the time and making it so special. I always thought Michael Hutchence was talented and filled with charisma. What a shame that his life is over. A friend of mine who lives in Melbourne, Australia just sent me Michael's solo effort and although at times I do find it to be a bit haunting, I really do enjoy listening to it. I will come back to this website again if only to reflect on the enormity his passing has had on so many. Rest in peace Michael. You are missed very much. Love, Ivonne

Discovered the site in the SthnX in London - Will never forget the impact his music has had in my adolesence. Thank you for a great insight into Michael and his life. Good luck with the future and Tiger....anne

Michael has been a part of my life since my teenage years, he wall all I used to daydream about.

The walls and ceilings were covered in pictures, and as I grew older, slowly they all disappeared but memories of him will never fade.

The website made me laugh and made me cry but in the end I think of all the pleasure he brought into my life - and I smile uncontrollably.

Congrats with the website - Its amazing.

the memory of michael will always be around wherever i go. as i quietly listen to his album with the song “flesh and blood” playing, i wonder what his reaction to the record being completed and available to his many fans would be like. he was and will always be my number one hero. RIP michael, i still miss you but as long as your music and videos are still around, i will never forget you. thank you for the music and memories.

I saw INXS in 1984 and was hooked, Michael and band had such a huge impression on my teenage years. I hear that voice and it takes me back to sunsoaked days down the beach, back to my youth. Michael will always live with me, because he is part of my past.

thank u 4 the memories

My heart is so full and my eyes are so moist, I can hardly breath. During the early to mid-eighties, INXS entered my life and I was never the same again. I too am a singer/songwriter and poet and I remember the first time I saw the band on MTV. I was a teenager, in a blah sort of mood, and suddenly there was Michael's face, close-up to the camera. The first thing I remember feeling at that moment was how warm and emotional his eyes were. I just gazed at him and felt as if I knew him. I quickly lavished myself with every album I could find of INXS and soon became one of the most devoted and loving fans they will ever have. Fortunately, years later I finally met the band by accident in NYC during the “Calling all Nations tour - summer 88'. Michael, being the front man, was ofcourse the most in demand by the fans. When I finally met him, I could feel how real and charismatic he really was and posessed such a boyish quality about him. His soft spoken voice made him even more adorable. He was never just a rock star in my eyes. I met the band several times again until 1993 when they played at the “Academy” in NYC. I gave Tim Farriss my first demo and he showed his appreciation by giving me the most loving hug. I met Michael the very next afternoon in front of the hotel the band stayed in as I was to have lunch with a friend who worked there at the time (never for one moment believing it would be my last time seeing him in person) for a quick photo. I remember, the tour bus was behind me and out comes Michael with his usually dishevelled hair, wide bottomed denim trousers and a denim jacket wearing his funky prescription sunglasses. I wanted so badly to tell him how much he enriched my life as a singer/songwriter and a person, however I was too shy to speak-up. It was raining that day and I lifted my red umbrella so he and I can stand under it, posing for a photo. He not only exuded sensuality, he also exuded so much warmth and genuine love. He felt like a cozy, fluffy blanket around my shoulders. He left me with his God given smile, you know how his eyes just twinkle whenever he smiles and his teeth barely showing like a little boy's mouth with bright, glowy cheeks. I wish I had the courage to tell him just how much he impacted my life with his voice. I felt I really understood him, (only God knows why) and never really spoke of that to anyone. I want to tell him now that a shy yet talented girl in NY loves him and misses him terribly. I also want to tell him that his true loving spirit and giving nature was clearly felt and understood and appreciated. I was not able to cry at the time learned of his death because I was too angry and stifled emotionally, however, I can and will cry today and in the future whenever I dive into my sweet memories of him or play my INXS albums, it makes me feel good.

Mr. Kelland Hutchence, you have no idea how cathartic this is for me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for allowing me to tell you, his father, how much your son meant to me and so many, many other people. You are very lucky to have him as a son (not had, but have), his presence and his voice left an indentation in my heart while he was alive. Now, his spirit lives for me. There's a lovely spot in my heart for Hutch. I know he's watching us down here with that adorable, childlike, twinkley smile of his. I look forwad to jamming with him when I reach paradise (not for many years, ofcourse) Until that time, we should continue to celebrate his life and legend as we move ahead with our lives. He knows who his friends really are.

My heartfelt gratitude to you, the Hutchence family and everyone else who made this memorial website possible. God bless you all, especially Michael's little twin, Tiger Lilly.

Yours Truly,
Katia Floreska

thankyou for the memories.

Loved your site, it has a very intimate feel to it. I will be a regular visitor.

I too was and still am devastated and in a state of shock over Michael's passing; through sites like yours I feel as though he is still here with us and it brings some comfort.
