Dear Michael,

It has been a while since I sent a message. Well, yesterday, August 24,2013 my son Jake got married. The wedding was beautiful. I had the honor to dance with my son too one of my favorite songs...Never Tear us apart. You see I was outside last night around 7p.m. smoking a cig and drinking well?....Gin.Seven and Lemon drinks. My neighbor recommended that drink. The next thing I know is my HUSBAND TED. Yeah, he's a teddy bear. Whatever? Ted tells me, Kath, It's the Mother and Son dance, ya gotta go now!! I walked in and there was Jake, smiling waiting patiently in the middle of the dance floor. I walked up too him and gave him a hug and at that moment INXS Never Tear Us Apart began...I have not been so happy before. You are so INSPRIRATIONAL, Michael and INXS.

P.S. I don't feel like a Mother-in-law?

Sincerely
Kathleen A. Rao-Ryan

Gone too soon. Amazing talent and still remembered by so many. I hope both he and Paula found each other on the other side.

“Life is a way in where you can stop anytime”. Good memories with INXS lyrics. Listen the music is transfer me to my young life years and years ago

I am watching INXS in concert on Sky Arts and wanted to pay my respects to Michael. What an amazing frontman he was - charismatic and such a voice. RIP Michael, you will never be forgotten x

I can't believe it's been 16 years since you left..I listen to your music faithfully and with fond memories. Thank you for all you gave to us. xox

dear and beautiful micheal, you were and are an inspiration to all - manners, charisma and class, natural beauty within and out, a credit to your parents. the music you and the band gave out is up there with the greatest, your star is still shining brightly xx

Michael was such a great artist. He was really my favorite artist. My uncle played the drums for Carlos Santana when I was a child. Michael was born back in 1960 and life was much different back then. Education wasn't that important and drug use was common amoung musicians. I have some friends who chose suicide here in the USA but it has no purpose and only harms others. Musicians often get caught up in emotions and this can cause them to not want to live. I didn't become a musician but became a Defensive Lineman Football player instead until I was injured. I am happy I did that because it taught me that you need to be tough and not allow suicide to become an option when relationships go wrong etc. I sure appriciate Michaels music though. I am a huge fan of his.

Been thinking about lots lately Michael, really wish you were here enjoying your life, making great music - be it be solo or with the band and most importantly, seeing your girl grow up- she's just beautiful! Miss you Michael!

Remembering our dear friend Kelland Hutchence today and wishing him a very happy birthday. God rest your precious soul. Always in our hearts.

Michael,
an angel like you had to return back where he belonged. In heaven. That knowledge does not change the fact that we still miss you, that your voice, your words and your music are here to dress our moments, to light our lives. R.I.P Michael and save a smile for us...A human being so full of FOS (that is the greek word for light) cannot be forgotten...Thank you!

I was here at home and suddendly I just wanted to hear his voice in By My Side...but every time I listen to a INXS song I get really sad, I still can believe how he died...I know he will be alive forever in his music and in all what he did but it's not fair that a beatiful person like Mike is no longer with us. God bless you, his family, for raising a child like him. We will always be thankful for your gift. Best wishes.

He is so very missed. Our family is on a road trip, and an INXS song came on, making my now husband and I think about how long it's been since he's been gone and how much we wished we'd seen him perform together. I know the sadness if losing someone doesn't go away, but hopefully the memories of what a lovely, talented and beautiful human being will always bring light to your lives. God bless.
