I have never had the pleasure of seeing Inxs perform, but the closest I ever came was to get tickets that were stolen off me to see them at wayville showgrounds when they did their smaller pub, club and festival centres tour. A great shame and a great loss. We will miss u Michael. Regards Craig
Personaly I m big fan of U2 but INXS was always been for me one of the best band of best generation of bands(U2,Inxs,Depeche mode...) great band with unforgettable songs(never tears us apart,new sensesion...) and great singer M.H.
I just wanted to say a big thank you for making this site. There were parts that moved me to tears and parts of it that made me smile. When Michael passed away, I felt like I lost a part of my childhood. Others who have signed this guestbook before me have said it, but it's true. INXS was the soundtrack of my adolesence. Their albums always seem to come out when I was going through one of life's major milestones, whether it was graduation and becoming an adult, a marriage, the birth of my son, to even now, my divorce. Their music always cheered me up and made me forget about the turmoil of growing up for a little while. In fact, when I'm feeling down about something, I still put on an album, and it still makes me feel better. And I've been doing that a lot lately.
Mario and Jackie, you've done an outstanding job designing this site. 🙂
My boyfriend and I decided that “Never Tear Us Apart” is “our” song. Ironically, we are separated by distance for the time being, and it's no fun, but playing that song always makes me think of him and how much I love him and miss him.
Mr. Hutchence, while I don't know exactly how you feel about the loss of your son, I have lost a relative to suicide, and I know that pain very well. My condolences and my prayers are with you and your family. Each day seems to get a little easier, but nothing will ever completely take away the pain from losing a loved one. I can only imagine how painful it is to have to bury a child. I hope that I never have to know that pain.
Micheal, Rest In Peace.

Why ?
I'll never forget the moment I heard he'd gone, why ? thats all I could say.
A beautiful memorial to Michael, although he was more than a rock star, a sex symbol, he was a lover and a father, it's so sad there's no mention of Paula, and her girls. She's the one person who can keep Michael alive in Tiger's mind, and remind that little girl how much her daddy loved her, and tell her all about the times they had together, for there were not enough of them.
Miss you Michael.

Music surrounds my life. Michael touched a place deep in my heart; and there, he will dwell forever. I love you, Michael.
Thanks for the web-site, a loving tribute.

First of all I want to thank M. Ferrari for this great site! And then -I know I'm not the only one who say this- this is the best way to keep a very talented person's -like Michael was- memory alive. And I'm sure he is always with us, when we listen to his great music.
Thank you once again

This is a great site for all Micheal fans. Well done. He will live forever in our hearts
Thanks for the chat kell
I was fortunate enough to attend Michael's funeral and I must say that I said farwell to one of the greatest men the word has ever seen that day.
This truely is a touching site, a beautiful way to remember such a talented and spiritual man.
Michael's solo album is no less then a masterpiece. I have never listened to an album in which the artist is able to reveal his soul and sing of both the inner demons and inner battles which he faced. It is truely a masterpiece.
I have often wondered what type of music Michael enoyed listening to.. what CD's he bought and played when he was down.
Cheers to you Michael. May you rest in peace and your spirit live on forever.

I will not sit here and write, that i know how you feel after loosing michael, because i don't, but i can tell you that i feel sorry for the music branch, because we have lost one of the greatest writers and singers of the millenium, but gratefully he will still talk to us everytime we play one of his records.
god bless you for this site.

it's me again...
i apologize again for disturbing you; hope not to annoy you anyway. it's just that the last couple of days my mind's been drifting about michael loss again. i know i do not sound stupid to you at least. ?elegantly wasted? has become one of my favourites lately and i listen to it a lot. by the way, does ?elegantly wasted? have a special meaning? for me it'd be something similar to something old but charming, you know.
i do not why but i keep on thinking of the times i watched INXS in concert, and so many flashes of michael on stage keep coming back to me... it's like i could be there again, but then later i found out that that will never happen again. i remember so well his passion and good humour while on stage... the way he smiled and his appreciation for the fans.
i'm gonna tell you about the last time i could exchange some words with him. it was a t the signing session at one of the biggest record stores here in madrid when they released ?elegantly wasted? and the same evening they were to play the ?hard rock cafe?. when it came for me to be in front of the table where they all where seating and greeting the fans i looked at michael in the middle. ?leegantly wasted? the song was playing and he was lyp-shynching to the song and playing ?air drums? while listening to the song.
i was delighted by this because i could feel how much of his life and passion was into their music. i felt so much happiness in that moment. they were all very nice (i think garry was the only one who was not in spain). they signed my cd booklet of the album. first i talked to andrew and asked him to write something funky for me, they said what? and tim told him to write ?make it funky, make it nude!? which was what they signed!!!
then came michael. i remember he was wearing a black see-through shirt which i usually happen to like very much. i was wearing a purple shirt and sporting a symbol necknacle of O+>. he kept looking at both the shirt and the symbol. i don't remember when but i read somewhere that he liked the music of prince and he was at a concert of him in london in 1986 i think and again at an afterparty in london in 92.
well, i first thanked him for the new album (oh, GOD, ?searching? is playing now, the line ?...i'm searching, i am not alone...? 🙁 then he said to me ?hey, nice shirt!?; and i told him ?i really like yours, michael. maybe we could exchange them!? he had a big laugh!!! 🙂 i also remember i told kirk about how the bass line of ?elegantly wasted? drive me crazy-funky!!!
then came the show at the hard rock. i didn't have an invitation so me and some friends back in the signing session had asked michel for some. he asked their spanish promo manager, i guess, but she said she had none but that we could asked for her at the hard rock entrance. well, we were getting anxious so we decided to try or own ways. lucky us another new friends at the queue at the store had passes. so once they were in they came outside and handed out their own passes to us!!! 🙂 so finally we were in.
they played an acoustic mini-set of 4 songs: ?i need you tonight?, ?i'm just a man? (where i could feel for the first time the important of this song in me and his eyes, but also something strangely dark), ?never tear us apart?, and ?everything?. then they kept doing promo interviews and we managed to watch the saloon where they were from the stairs. another of the flashes that keep coming back to my mind is michael holding tiger-lily on his arms... 🙁
well, i also feel like the man on the ?i'm just a man? song because my father left town 13 years ago and spoiled my life, because he soon rejected me 🙁
i'm sorry, but i really needed your shoulder to cry on. now i'm really crying... please, write soon. hope you don't mind i share all these feelings with you. remember i told you i know no other INXS fans. do not fear, i'm not feeling depressed, but what i feel is a terrible sadness for michel his daughter, family, and why not us... 🙁
please, come back soon, ok?

Thanks Kell!
What a wonderful way to remember such a talented man. I'd like to thank Kelland letting Michael's fans see the man behind the superstar that he was.
Rest in Peace Michael you will never be forgotten +++
Rest in Peace Michael you will never be forgotten +++
Even though it has been two years since his death, and I have long since dealt with the reality of Michael's death, it is suddenly very difficult again. I think it is all of the news aobut the new album, and hearing some of the tracks and realizing how brilliant they are and how much he would have loved to see this album come to fruition; I think that is what makes it hurt so much right now. I will never forget waking up that morning and seeing the news. It was such a shock. Michael's death was, and is, such a tragic and painful thing. Just as a fan: to Michael's family and friends, I hold for you the deepest sympathy in my heart. I pray that you have all been able to find some peace. I pray for peace to come to you in the ongoing months. To Michael: thank you for your inspiration. You were such a beacon in this world. You touched so many people. I hope that, wherever you are, you are at peace. Please know that you are loved and missed by many. I cannot say anything that hasn't been said or
thought countless times by countless people. Thank you again. In remembrance, love, and hope, Michael A.

What a wonderful memorial site..a great tribute to a man who was so very talented and definately died way before his time..i miss him and his songs so much..thank you for this site..i shall definately visit it often and tell my friends about it!
the legend lives on
Thank you so much for taking the time
to construct this beautiful site.
I love reading about everyone's individual, personal memories and thoughts of Michael. One minute I'd be in hysterics, and the next, I'd be crying. Sometimes I would cry, simply because I never met Michael and never had the chance to see him perform live. I wish I could have those types of memories to hold forever sacred in my heart. The things I would sacrifice to be given that chance!
I also especially appreciate the pictures. I've only been to Oz once, and I didn't have the chance to see any of the memorials or anything. Who knows when I'll ever have the opportunity (or funds!) to visit there again!

Life began with Decadance..
A fantastically constructed website!
I'm not a huge INXS fan, but I certainly enjoyed the band, and appreciated what they achieved.
What can I say that ahs'nt already been said a million times...TRAGIC!
I've enjoyed the site immensely, thanks. 🙂

Wonderful to have memories like these.
I was at the memorial service last year and have spent many times sitting at the monument trying to believe he is gone.The release of his solo album was a way of realising he will always be here.
