Words can't express what the music of INXS has meant to me over the past 20 years. I think that when a musician dies somehow a part of you dies with it.

I liked INXS since the “Kick” album. That was released when I was 11 years old. I'm 23 now so I spent a good part of my life growing up with and listening to INXS.

Nobody likes to hear it when a musician that they've idolized dies but this site is just beautiful. I think that Michael wouldn't have wanted us to cry for him but instead carry his memory on into the new century .

My thoughts, love and prayers to Michael and his family, and ESP little Tiger Lilly for whom my heart goes out.

I first saw INXS in concert at The Royal Albert Hall in London in June 1986...What a show!!! I also saw them in Adelaide 3 times after that. They are great memories. Michael was a special person who will live on forever in our hearts.

We all have feelings and emotions deeply rooted in our hearts and souls. Some of them are clear and we can articulate them. Some of them are vague and we're lacking the words to express them. I always feel uncomfortable whenever I can't find the right words to express an emotion. Sometimes, when I'm lucky, I hear a songs that reflects my feelings and this is a wonderful moment. I realize that this emotion is shared by other people and that there's a talented soul out there who can put this emotion into words and notes. Michael was one of those talented souls and it makes me so sad that he died so young and left so many things unsaid. I'll keep him always in my heart and cherish his songs forever!!

I would like to let you know that I loved the site and I also would like to thank you for doing it for us, the fans. I'm only 16 years old and I could reach his music only a few years ago and i have to admit that his lyrics moved me as no one else ever could. Now he and his music will remain in my heart and I'll continue let other people know about his art. Thank you very much for all.

Love, Valeria.

Michael ...... what can i say...? .....i followed you and INXS for, oh , 10 years . My dad came home one day and said he was editing a documentary on INXS 'A new Australian band , have you heard of them ?',i remember him saying.Having wiped my spilt beer off of my top in shock , replied 'are you kidding me!!?'. You were the best , and you still are .That day at 'Summer XS' Wembley Stadium was just incredible . The tension had been building all day , and when all six of you finally ran onto stage , that stadium exploded . Michael you set it alight . When the news of your passing reached me early , on Virgin radio that morning , i stopped my car , i looked at my girlfriend , and we both burst into tears . I went round to my best mates house , we were both at the stadium that day , and all he could say was 'i cant believe it . My god '. And those six words said it all . You and your band live on in our memories , for now and forever . Icant wait to hear your solo album . rest in peace mate .

mark , sue and richard .

He gave me feelings of love, He gave me the kick of life, He made me smile and cry and all of this I looked forward to everytime he sang or came to town. But,now he is gone but not gone from my heart. Still almost 2 years later I still cry like a baby...God how I miss him... I want to thank Michaels father for this beautiful place he and others have created so I can come to and fill myself with all of him and his past and be able to try and get this heartache out of my body so I can only smile when I think of him..because he was all of that...all of that stuff that make someone want life...and he did live life..Love and Peace

I have just read the dedication that Angela left on the memorial site and found myself trying to fight back the tears, two full years after the death of Michael Hutchence. I felt I could identify with everything she said. It angers me, also, to find that the coverage of Michael Hutchence's death was scant at best. I found that no-one seemed to really care, and that a lot of people hate INXS to such an extent (for some reason) that they were actually sort of happy that he died. I never had the pleasure of seeing Michael and co in concert, and that is something that hurts me beyond most peoples' recognition and I feel as if I missed out on something truly wonderful. I did, however, have the good fortune to be able to interview Kirk Pengilly from the band shortly after the release of Elegantly Wasted, but to be honest, I was really gutted that it wasn't Michael. I have just heard his solo album, and it makes it harder to accept that he is gone, because it feels so final. That is the last recording we will ever hear from the great man. There is, apparently, no more to be had, unless INXS release some secret tapes or B-sides or something. I find that hard to take, and I have found myself having to fight back the tears all week in anticipation of being able to hear the album. I really wish more than anything else in the world that it wasn't the end. But I look at the happiness Michael gave me since a friend inadvertently introduced me to Listen Like Thieves in 1986, and I think that his music lives on even although he doesn't. I feel so sorry for Tiger, and I wept when I saw that the album had been dedicated to her before Michael died. This is the only reminder she has of her father. I think I have been going on too long here, as there is nothing that will bring him back, but I have to say that reading this memorial web-site has been one of the most moving things I have ever read. I think it is especially touching when you see the care and devotion that Kelland Hutchence has put into it. It is clear to see where Michael got many of his great qualities.

Thanks for listening.

I don't know what to add to all these wonderfull messages. Although I have had some very bad moment for the last 2 years, the music/lyrics always pulled me through. And I know I will still have to strugle through a difficult time now and in the future in my personal life, I look forward to Michael's solo album to help me again. (It's not yet available here). I have a good feeling now, that there are so many who will not forget Michael. And thanks to all of them who made this site possible.

I'm singing in Japan with the passion Michael's voice gave me

I will sing for a thousand thanks to Michael on my next gig november 4th in Tokyo.

The music of Michael and INXS formed part of the soundtrack of my adolescent years. Whenever I hear their songs, memories flood my mind. One of the nice things about musicians is that when they leave us (only temporarily) they live on in our hearts when we hear their music.

My sincere condolences go out to Michael's family.

Bought solo album, it is excellent.Sad that he is gone but he will always live on in his powerful music and in our hearts.

My wife and I are expecting a baby in March of'99. If it's a boy, we are both leaning towards the name of Kelland. We like Kell for short and my wife knows the effect INXS and Michael have have upon my life. We already have a 3 year old boy named Lucas who loves to dance to Elegantly Wasted(Lyrics are not in the game yet, just a great dance beat).

Take care.

INXSingly yours for 16 years,

What an amazing individual he must have been to bring together all these people.

This website offers people a chance to prove their humanity.

Maybe there is hope for us all !!

YOU SING ME SILENT

You devestate and carve our hearts
with a voice that burns the soul.
So sad, silent and funny
the world's excess taken toll.
You sing me silent with your song
mesmorizingly entrance.
Encapturing body, heart and soul
You taught me how to dance.
Man of many faces,
taking me in with one breath.
Leaving me high,
Making me fly.
Where is your voice?
Where is your cry?
Too many looking,
Perhaps thats why.
With one note you captured a
generation,
that day now gone, but still alive.
You sing me silent.

Written by Amanda G.

Thankyou, Kel for this wonderful site. You'll never know what your special boy did for me. This site is a great way to keep his spirit alive, although I have this feeling that he is still living through that beautiful little grand daughter of yours. Thankyou.
