Hi, I'm a big fan of Michael! My first concert was the X tour and after that concert I came to be a big fan. BTW:I love michaels' cover single “passenger” on the batman forever cd. Congrats on a great site!!
My one and only INXS show was two short years ago, in the autumn of 97, at the Beacon Theater. Not surprisingly, I was absolutely blown away by them, particularly Michael's charisma.
As the last encore, “Suicide Blonde” started, we my friends and I took the others cue and rushed the stage. Running down the isle at top speed, and sliding across, only to have Michael help me to my feet when I slid to his, was amazing. Turning around with his arm around me briefly to see the whole Beacon lit up, was a moment I will never forget.
Not only an amazing performer, but an amazing person, who was only human, but touched more lives than most.
I will miss him dearly, but he does live on.

I've never really been and INXS fan. The only album I have is Kick. I thought Michael was an amazingly attractive man. To be honest until 2 weeks ago I hadn't listened to the album in years.
2 weeks or so ago I was going through a very bad time. I have been depressed on an off through most of my life. I've even been on Prozac. For reasons too numerous to mention I was feeling suicidal. I was flicking channels on TV trying to get my mind off things when I came to MuchMusic. They were playing Live Baby Live. For the next hour I sang and danced and cried as I thought about Michael's death.
I started listening to Kick over and over. One afternoon I laid down on my bed and began to cry. I must have cried myself to sleep because I saw Michael. He was sitting on my bed and he started talking to me. He talked about how no matter how much anyone knows about you they can never know what it's like to be you. We talked about a lot of other things and then he reached out and touched my ankle.
I was startled awake and I looked to the foot of my bed and I could swear someone was sitting there. Then the person just disappeared. Suddenly I felt better about his death and knew that I could get help and not follow him. I don't think he would have wanted that.
I guess I just want to say thank you, Micheal, for talking to me even if it was only a dream.

thanx for the music , and thanx for this website michael's Dad. we'll love him forever.
Thanks to all who created this site. I use to go to school with Michael and it is still hard to accept that he is no longer with us
There really isn't much more to add to the already 479 posts :o) Thank you so much, Mr. Hutchence for sharing your memories with us. I never had the pleasure of meeting Michael personally but he has been (and is) my idol for the past 16 years and I feel as though he is part of my family. Not a day (hour, actually) goes by that I don't think of him and miss him. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you personally for giving us the gift known as Michael Kelland Hutchence. My life has been a much better place for having him in it. I will treasure his memory for the rest of my life.

It's been almost 2 years and I still can't get over this loss. I'm sure michael never planned for things to end up this way. Please accept my deepest sympathy.

About ten years ago some of michael's lyrics helped me through a hard time.I continued to learn from him over the years, I think my best attributes have been influenced by him. I never got to thank him. He is missed everyday, but also remembered and celebrated, he's a perfect paradox to me. Thank you kell for this personal glimpse into his life.
I used to listen to INXS with my dad. It was a great way for us to bond. Lots of sons have difficulty with their fathers especially in teenage years. My father and I were able to talk about sports and listen to INXS and it really helped us to have a better relationship I think - some common ground in great music and great lyrics. Thanks.
what a wasted life.
I am sorry for your pain.

I grew up listening to Michael & INXS. They were my favorite band as a child and a teenager, and are still until this day. When I found out about Micheal's passing, it was like I lost my best friend. To this day, I still mourn Michael. However, I gain solace every time I hear his sweet voice singing and recount all the happy memories I have of listening to his music. My biggeest reget in life is that i never got to see Michael & INXS in concert.
I want to thank the Hutchence family for this beautiful site. It has helped provide me with some additonal healing, but I know I will never fully be able to accept the fact that Michael has left us.
I know Michael is making beautiful music in Heaven. I want to wish love & light to all of his family and friends. We all miss him dearly.

INXS was my favorite band growing up, I still love and listen to the music. I cried in disbelief when I heard the news. I am so happy I was able to make the concert earlier that year. I looked around at that concert and I was one of the few people who new all of the songs. I have all of the albums, and really love the old stuff. I was able to see INXS three times live. And I have a live performance from Australia on tape so I can watch it again. I also have DOGS IN SPACE taped, I love Michael's perfomance in that strange movie. The end at the funeral is so moving. But, nothing takes the place of Michael's stage presence. The way he moved, sang, interacted with the crowd, it can't be replaced. I will love INXS and Michael Hutchence forever. Thank you for this great tribute page, a place for fans to come together and remember their Michael Hutchence.
Thank you for a very beautiful and moving website. I saw Michael in concert shortly before his death and I will always remember that night. I still miss him and keep his music in my car all the time. God bless Michael's family and friends.
He will live on in the music, He is missed!!!!greatly....

I will miss him forever. Michael & INXS provided the sound track to my life, & for this I will be forever grateful.
Yours sincerely,
Penny Whiting.

I had the pleasure of meeting Michael on a number of occassions. I found him to be an inspiration. He was a man of strong spirit who could relate to anyone.
I will never forget him.

An INXS fan from childhood, I had never seen the band in concert until their last time through Chicago, days before the release of “Elegantly Wasted”. It was the most spectacular show I have ever been to and I will never forget the way Michael was able to captivate the audience. Truly a wonderful entertainer and a role model to many (including myself), Michael is deeply missed.
I never met Micheal personally, but his life still has had impact on mine. His voice will always haunt me. I am so glad he was alive on this earth and I was able to experience his presence in concert and listen to his beautiful voice over and over with what his has left us. I'll be forever grateful and truely miss him. Hopefully one day I will meet him in heaven.
The day that I heard about Michael Hutchence's death, I walked around in something of a daze. It hadn't been very long since they had played here in Vancouver, and my memory of the show was still fresh. I remember that he dedicated the song “searching” in memory of Princess Diana that night. I had seen INXS every time that they had come to Vancouver, and I remember when I heard the news how glad I was that I had seen Michael that one last time. Never before has the death of a celebrity touched me like that of Michael's. Even now when I think about it I become somewhat melancholy. If any of Michael's family reads this, please know that he is missed greatly by us all, and we can only imagine the loss that you have felt.
I met Michael with INXS when they came to Colombia for the first and unique time, I really got shocked when I heard he was dead..I couldn't believe it.
He lives in my heart as in his music.
I didn't get to know him very well, but I saw him performance and that;s something for me.

I must say that I was saddened by Michael's death. It's not as though I knew him, but his music touched me during a difficult period in my life. I will have fond memories of the concerts, the music, and even the films -- he will be missed.
