I discovered INXS in 1987, when I was 13 years old, and from the very first moment Michael’s voice stayed with me forever.
Before I even knew what he looked like, I was already fascinated by his voice and the music of INXS. Back then we didn’t have internet, so for a while INXS was simply a voice on the radio that completely captivated me. Then one day I saw Michael for the first time in a teen magazine, and suddenly that connection became even more real and unforgettable for me.
Beyond the beauty, the charisma and the “rock star” image, there was always something warm, sensitive and deeply human in his eyes.
Michael became part of some of the most important memories and emotions of my youth. His music was there during moments of happiness, dreams, nostalgia and difficult times, and somehow it stayed in my heart throughout the years.
When he passed away in 1997, it affected me far more deeply than I could explain. For many years I could not even listen to INXS anymore because it hurt too much. I packed away the posters, stopped watching interviews and changed the radio station whenever a song came on, because the sadness felt unbearable.
Almost thirty years later, I'm finally listening again. The sadness is still there, but so is the love, the admiration, the nostalgia, and the gratitude for everything his music made me feel then… and still makes me feel now.
Some people simply pass through our lives. Others leave part of themselves in our hearts forever.
Michael Hutchence is still deeply missed and deeply loved.

Dear and beautiful Michael,
Is has been 29 years since you left this earth.
But when I see your video's it does not give me the feeling that you're not on this world anymore.
still until this day " you do belong" to this world.
I am so sorry that is was way too much for you to live any longer.
It sadness me that you had to go.
29 years after you died your print will be for ever everywhere.
As a teenager I looked up to you, I admired you.
I still do...
Yes , from a distance you felt like my big brother, you set an example for me(and all the others).I learned from you. Thank you for that
At the time of your death I was blessed with the fact that there weren't too many who passed away...
Now I know a bit more...include the love of my life and father of my only child, hè passed away in 2000. My daughter Anne, now 25
Never have I been angry with him, it only gave me a huge dark gab, but it is okay, I respect his descission and never will I speak a faul word about him.
Michael "darling", I hope you are in a far better place, that your free, free forever.
Rest In Peace ..♡.. Karin.

Been long time since I wrote. I hope you have found the love and peace you deserve, last nite watched Wembley Stadium 1991 concert - brilliant. Amazing performance - gave so much of 'You' to so many to lift their spirts no matter what going on in their lives. I hope someone was their for you, it must be hard travelling working so hard for many years. Still hear your songs played everywhere in Australia often, radio, shops TV ads social media parties - you live on in young hearts. Bless you Micheal Take Care
Best Frontman Ever!
Awesome voice, looks & moves.

I’m 17 and when I was first exposed to INXS I simply fell in love with Michael and the Band. from listening to every song from the INXS self titled album through to Elegantly Wasted, his voice was so powerful and the lyrics written by Himself, Andrew and the band was so catchy and energitic. My favourite songs include Kiss The Dirt, Devil Inside, Disappear and Original Sin aswell as basicly every other song. This lead to me collecting every album on Vinyl and witnessing tribute concerts.
What started as just listening to the music quickly turned into something much bigger for me. I wanted to understand more about the person behind the voice, the energy, and the presence. Watching live performances became a whole new experience, seeing Michael Hutchence on stage brought everything to life in a way that recordings didn't have. Performances like Australian Made (1987) and Wembley Stadium (1991) became my favourites. There’s something unforgettable about the way he moved, the confidence he carried, and the connection he had with the crowd. It wasn’t just performing it felt like he was completely in the moment, and somehow you could feel that even watching it years later. Then I watched Dogs in Space (1986), and it showed me another side of him entirely. It made me realise how creative he was beyond music, and how much depth there was to who he was as a person. From there, I started watching documentaries and interviews to learn more about the frontman of INXS not just the rockstar, but the person underneath.
The more I discovered, the more I appreciated his talent and complexity. What began as a love for the music of INXS grew into a genuine admiration for the frontman Michael that keeps getting stronger. I only wish I could have seen him live.

I love INXS. Still miss Michael but the gift he gave us lives on. ❤️❤️❤️
I can remember the ;90's and hearing this music and his voice and the great presence of his energy. He was incredible song writer and their music is profound. I still have couple CD's when times were simpler. There will never be another who
put so much into connecting with the audience.

Dear Michael, I just wanted to thank you for giving us a great gift in our lives, your voice and your words. You will always be loved and missed.
The music which changed Me. In 1988, my older sister and her friends camped out for Bros tickets. Thank God or Jedi Knights that INXS suddenly released tix to a sixth Entertainment Centre gig and they bought 🎫. Changed my life as I saw up close the music and the man who would be the soundtrack to my life, to this very day. I have all the INXS albums, Max Q and solo album. He has recorded other tracks for soundtracks and they all kick ass ie Passenger, Whose for the Memories. He has been in four movies if u include extra to one of if the Mad Max movies and he was a genius on stage, having seen INXS ten times. He was a true rock star and in an era of racism he showed me that not all Aussies had an issue with non whites.
Many of his songs were left leaning and as Tina Hutchence said, a Labor Voter, someone who cared for our world and had a voice.
Along with Richard Lowenstein, the videos were groundbreaking.
His music was sexy, loaded with thought provoking messages, stylish, ahead of its time and impactful. He was what we all need!

Dear Michael Hutchence, INXS-singer-songwriter, I'll always love you! - you're always in my heart, always on my mind! - I'm one of the biggest female fans ever! - ... and I'm still a big fan of male vocals ... . - you're still "alive" in heaven. I know that. - love from Gabriele Pokorny
Happy (belated) heavenly birthday, Michael. An unforgettable frontman. I remember "The One Thing" when it first came out on MTV; I was a dj then and always looked forward to the next album from INXS. May you rest in eternal peace.
Michael was the best frontman Australia has ever produced. A glorious voice, marvelous stage presence like no other. His voice is unmistakable, you can be in a shop or listening to the radio and once you hear the voice, you recognize Michael immediately. Michael is much missed but not forgotten. RIP Michael xx
