THANK YOU KYLIE!!!! (I know she's not on the list anymore, but I just had to shout it out to everyone!) Michael's solo CD came today!!! It was just what I needed, because my day was pretty somber and I was going to take a nap right when I got home. Once I looked down on my doorstep and saw the package, there was NO WAY I was going to go to sleep!!!! I listened to the CD straight through, including the single =) I don't think I've ever done that before come to think of it... Mike is special =) So, first, my # is 66560, not too hard to remember. Now the actual album... WOW. The whole thing brought out so many emotions. Michael's voice just takes control of you. Actually, I wasn't expecting so many 'groovin' songs and almost techno-type music. It was a really great surprise! I was glad it wasn't too gloomy =) I IMMEDIATELY loved 'Get On the Inside'! I was really dancing on that one, and also possibilities-- that had a funky rhythym. But, gotta say, 'Get On the Inside' is my number one upbeat pick. Then there's 'Flesh and Blood', which grabbed and stirred me from the first few sounds. That song brought out a lot of emotions! Tissue time =~) It definitly ties with 'get on the inside' for my favorite song on the album. Slide Away-- I liked this song, and I thought that Bono's part was really touching, but many of you were right: it feels like two separate ideas. At the begining with Michael's part, it just sounds like another catchy beat, not something TOO sensational or moving. But, I still enjoyed it and grabbed tissues for the end of Bono's verse! Two other stand out tracks for me were 'Baby It's Alright' and 'Fear'. Now, this doesn't mean that I didn't like the other tracks!!! Oh no, I think they were all incredible, it's just these were the ones that gave me something "extra" at first impression. I'll have to listen to the album a few more times, and I'd like to try that "playing it backwards" idea!

That's so cool, cos I've often thought about doign the same, but with the first INXS song I ever heard, NEVER TEAR US APART, I think that's why it's my fave of their songs. Neo JunKie Infiltrator, you said you got your name from a song Hutch wrote about you, so you met Michael? I'd love to hear about your encounter, or anyone else's for that matter. I believe it's so true what Cat said about everyone has a double in this world, in relation to the guy that looked like Andrew in Ferris Bueller's Day Off. I am a firm believer of the theory that everyone has a double out there somewhere, but some are closer than others. I'm living proof, I've got a twin brother, but I've seen another example, don't know if you'd all of heard of these two celebs, Brooke Satchwell (Aussie soap actress) bears an uncanny resemblance to UK pop songstress Billie Piper. Kris, you said something about a January Party. As being new to this list, I have no idea what you're talking about, would you be able to explain it to me. I'm guessing you all (the ppl on this list) get together for a party. But living in Australia I doubt I'd get over for it. Lastly, another good Australian music station on the net is the Ozchannel. If you've not heard of it before, try either of these urls: www.ozchannel.com.au OR www.village.com.au (and then follow the links) That's it from me anyway.

I'll admit they look very much alike in Billie's 'Honey to the Bee' video but it's really only in that video and only in certain parts of it...she looks nothing like Brooke Satchwell at other times just watch all her other video clips. Also I guess the fact on her album cover she looks like Brooke gives many people that first impression of her too. I interviewed Billie for a journalism assignment back in June, only a matter of hours before I left for Sydney to see INXS perform at Stadium Australia. She signed her cd for me and I took it to Sydney by mistake with some INXS cd's to play in the car. Anyway I didn't realise it was there until I went to get an INXS cd out to play, if my other INXS friends in the car had seen I had that with me they would have given me a hard time about it for weeks saying I'd rather listen to Billie than INXS! But Billie was really nice and I can certainly see why she won Princess of Pop in the UK last year. As opposed to Brooke who I have met numerous times since I'm friends with Jesse Spencer's (another Neighbours actor) older brother Luke, and my grandmother use to even babysit Jesse and his brothers and sister, which is how I fist met their family many years ago. But I won't bore you all with details about Brooke as I don't like her much myself. But I get your point about people having doubles...I'm telling you M.H.'s father Kell has about 100 doubles where I live! Everytime I go into the supermarket I see Kell's walking around ha ha. You also see quite a few Kirk's too. Hopefully I haven't just started people saying they have seen MH walking around like they say about Elvis!

They are still saying that there is a deal in the works to release the other songs that INXS did in the studio that day. The songs were NTUA, Guns in the Sky and Need You Tonight. They have no idea when the deal will be finalized. Does anyone know the website for Virgin 2? I've been scouring the WEB for their site. But I haven't had any luck. I thought maybe I could get some information from "them" about the release. Hey Neil, have you heard anything on the subject?

Not that this is spectacular article, but still recognition is always good. I surely did not purchase the tv guide for the picture of Michael Jackson on the cover. lol Article says: 1987/Richard Lowenstein/Director "INXS's stardom after eight years of recording and touring came partly on the strength of this video (Need You Tonight/Mediate), a kind of mobile collage. The Australian rock band, led by singer Michael Hutchence, is shown to good advantage-dressed up or dressed down, looking both rugged and pretty. Lowenstein has the good sense to return often to shots of Hutchence (who died in 1997), bare-chested and sexy in a black leather jacket. In "Mediate," a brief , recitative postscript, Lowenstein re-creates scenes from the classic Bob Dylan documentary "Don't Look Back," showing INXS holding placards with printed lyrics. With this video, INXS spelled success." Article is by Rob Tannenbaum, re: the 100 greatest music videos ever made. Inxs rated #21. Quite nice little article I thought. :) Anyhow, wanted to share it-first time I've seen an american article on inxs in awhile. -Kristin X-From_: nanci@smtp.digitalcastle.com Sat Dec 4 09:31:46 1999 Sender: inxslist@smtp.digitalcastle.com Errors-To: nanci@smtp.digitalcastle.com Reply-To: inxslist@digitalcastle.com X-Listserver: Macjordomo 1b10 - Macintosh Listserver by Michele Fuortes Date: Sat, 4 Dec 1999 06:04:13 -0800 (PST) From: rochelle To: Multiple recipients of Subject: INXS: Re: DESKTOP THEME Hi Giovanni My name is Rochelle, I'm from Australia and I'd love to see your desktop theme!

I couldn't believe it!! I was in my car Friday afternoon going to the bank on my lunch hr. And Slide Away started playing!!! I FREAKED! The album won't even be released here till late Feb., but they're playing it, anyway! When I got back to work, my boss told me I had an urgent call from my daughter -- of course, all kinds of scary thoughts entered my head. I called her and she said, "MOM!!! You'll NEVER guess what just played on the radio!" I said, "Slide Away!" We were both hysterical. That was such a nice, unexpected surprise. After the song was over, the dj said to go to their website, and it would tell all about the solo album. A couple of months ago, the dj from this station (who always plays INXS) asked if anyone had info on the upcoming solo album, to call in. Well, of course, I called right away. I told him all about it - the release dates, the songs, where quite a few of the US fans were buying the cd in Oz, etc. He was very grateful for the info and said he was going to get the cd now, cause he couldn't wait. He was very interested in the "song" that Michael and Bono did together, since he was also a huge U2 fan. Then he went on to tell me about the time he met Michael -- just several months before he died. Anyway, I'd like to think that MAYBE, I had something to do with Slide Away getting airplay so soon here. Just curious -- Anyone else in the states heard any of the songs get airplay yet?

Well, I just viewed the E! program on Michael. It ended with the U2 concert where Bono says goodbye to his friend Michael. Nice to put a name with a face...Martha Troup, Mike Gee (is he still on the list?). It was rather generic, especially since the band were not involved. The program was definitely centered around Michael. They showed several photos of Michael as a child, and a school photo of Andrew from "back in the day"...wow!

On the one hand, I'm disappointed that they didn't feature more 'INXS' info, but I guess it was a Hutch bio, and the band and the music were pushed to the sideline for the most part. It seemed pretty accurate to me, but what pleased me the most was the show's presentation of the facts surrounding his death, including the interview with the coroner stating explicitly there was no evidence of auto-erotic axphixiation and the psychologist's insight into the effects of alcohol and prozac mixed together, added to the lingering effects of Hutch's 1992 head injury, thus leaving the audience with a pretty clear picture that Hutch died under the influence. All in all, it was responsibly presented, and for that I'd have to say thumbs up to the show. -----Original Message----- From: BJayC@webtv.net To: Multiple recipients of Date: Sunday, December 05, 1999 9:17 PM Subject: INXS: E! Well, I just viewed the E! program on Michael. It ended with the U2 concert where Bono says goodbye to his friend Michael. Nice to put a name with a face...Martha Troup, Mike Gee (is he still on the list?). It was rather generic, especially since the band were not involved. The program was definitely centered around Michael. They showed several photos of Michael as a child, and a school photo of Andrew from "back in the day"...wow! Also, a clip of Michael w/Helena, and photos of Tiger, and Paula. IMO, no new information. I am just glad his new music is out, and the band keeps on playing.

I was also generally pleased with the program. Let me tell you, I was VERY nervous about it and how they would portray Michael. I was very grateful with the way they handeled his 'promiscuity' (sp?) and other 'explorations' during the KICK and X years. It was like- ok, so he had a lot of women, and there you go. Lets move on. They didn't dwindle too long or hard about his sex life, which was nice. I don't want to hear the details about all of that stuff, and I was afraid that they might drag it out. I liked seeing photos of Michael (and all of the other band members) from childhood. I hadn't seen many of them before, expecially of Andrew =) That was pretty amusing... But, I also felt like the program went through his life in a 'generic' way. "Ok, so they recorded this album, it was successful, then they took a break. Blah blah, they wrote the next album, it flopped, took a break'. Not too much insight on the making, feelings, or touring behind the albums. They also never mentioned when he did his solo stuff!? Where did that all fit in? I also felt that they should have shown his more personal side. At the end of the show, they have a total of one sentence about how he was funny, caring, etc. However, we never heard any STORIES from his parents or friends about instances where he was caring, funny, loyal... with the exception of maybe Tiger, and Martha Troup's story about how when he talked to you, you felt like he was engrossed in what you were saying. I feel that they should have also shown more of his dedication to the fans and how he would take time out for THEM. But then again, this show was just about his DEATH, right? Besides these two points, the show was pretty good. Quick, and almost painless =). I agree with BPrice, I appreciated the fact that they talked about the effects of the drugs with the alcohol, and his mental state at the moment (including the trauma from his bike accident). I had no idea the bike accident could have left such lingering mental scars, and I keep forgetting that he lost his sense of smell and taste. Their doctor's explainations really made me look at the incident again, and I have to conclude (for myself), that his SUICIDE was a split second decision, influenced by substances and mental instability, that if he had though over 5 minutes later, would never have happened. I believe he snapped for a second. To just get that one second back...

I'm still digesting it, but over all I found it to be accurate, respectful and honorable. I was glad to see all of the family participating, friends, and co-workers. I would have liked to hear what Paula had to say as I've never seen the woman in action, or verbalizing her point of view (never saw the 60 minutes interview) and the band. But I think we're going to get to see the band's take in depth in the ever elusive documentary some day. I too found the doctor's points about the extent of influence his accident may have had in his death. I had heard what she had said before about brain injuries and their effects on the psyche but never put the two together in regards to Michael. I wasn't swayed on any opinions, I've always believed Michael wasn't in his right mind, that it was a spur of the moment thing, and that the chemicals in his system caused him to react to a pain that was very real, but something he could have worked through.

I'm back from Amsterdam (and Paris) and I must say that I had an EXCELLENT time. 8^) Michael's album was in every record store I went into in both places (about 10 total). They even had the single in about one-third of them. {smile} The lowest Limited Edition number that I saw was 3075 or so. I didn't get it, but I think it was at the Fame record store in Amsterdam along the Damrack. Anyway, when I got home last night, I had to pick up my little guy, Sebastien, at Nana's house. After all the hugs and I-missed-you bonding and such, he was watching the Rosie special (with ELMO!!!) 8^) and I was chatting with my mom in the kitchen. All of a sudden, Sebby yells, "Mom-Mom! Come quick! It's your good song on the television!" But when I -finally- went in there (deep-dishing discussions about family business with Mom), it was over. I asked him, "What was it, honey?" And he said, "Oh, Mom-Mom. It was INXS, New Sensation from Listen Like Thieves. It was good." My thoughts: "Awwwww....poop!" and "My child has been indoctrinated/taught well." 8^) He's five years old, by the way... Cheers!

True Hollywood Story After watching the show, I have to say that I was pretty disappointed. Tammy and I just went to bed, not even commenting on it. I'm willing to bet that not one person who watched it will be running out to buy Michael's solo album, or any INXS album other than Kick (only a passing mention was made of his solo career, and hardly any mention of the other band members). Basically, it was stated that Michael was doing his best in the 90's, but the music "stinked". They told of how awesome his stage presence was, but I was only wishing and hoping they would display it for just 30 seconds straight. That's all it would take to hook people in. But no, there was no time for that. They had to try and pack everything in to this one hour show. Actually, I believe it was only 28 minutes worth of show (7 segments of 4 minutes each, crammed between 8 commercial breaks of 4 minutes each!). The only thing I really learned was that Michael was going back to Australia in late '97 only waiting to get that leg of the Elegantly Wasted tour "out of the way", so that he can get back to LA. I had always thought that he was really up for that tour and was as excited as everyone else in the band to take EW back Down Under. Don't get me wrong, it's extremely nice to see this recognition. I'd been waiting to see this for a very long time. I don't think, however, we'll be seeing anyone new to this list because of it, though. It wasn't like a Behind The Music, where (as someone here had previously stated) you seem to become an instant fan of whomever they're focusing on.

See, the reason I see for not focusing on the music was because it was suppose to be focusing on the man. This isn't a music channel, it's a famous people channel - I mean, next week's special is on Gilligan's Island! Yes, music was a huge part of the man, but it wasn't all of him. Yes, it would have been better if it hadn't been so short! There would have been room for a more all-encompassing special. But it's nice to see something that was incredibly fair and not too "tabloid" on TV about Michael. Two thumbs up to E! for not doing anything too tacky or having the whole AEA shpeel dragged out all over again. My apologies to those who still believe it was a "sexual misadventure," (which is completely your prerogative, not trying to imply any different) but it was nice not to have everything clouded over with suppositions and opinions. And the lack of mention of any of the band members was their own fault for not participating - for whatever reasons they have, they have dictated how these specials will go by not having an active role in them. They force the E!s and Vh1s of the world to focus on Michael and not INXS. Documentary shmockumentary - this is a case where less is not more and it would be better to have the TV specials as well as this documentary that they're working on. Fans are insatiable, they should know that after 20+ years in the biz LOL. It wasn't like a > Behind The Music, where (as someone here had > previously stated) you seem to > become an instant fan of whomever they're focusing > on. So now, I guess I'll > start counting down the days until the BTM special! Let's just hope that the BTM special isn't forced to go the same direction as E! because of the lack of input from the rest of the band. Generally the BTM specials have either the artist him or herself and/or the bandmates -- this one isn't going to have either. I do give more credit to Vh1, though, and if nothing else, the special will be put together a lot better. I'm not trying to be negative, that's just the way I see it. And a strange question for anyone who might know -- the hotel room that they showed........ was it just a random room or was it 524? (that was the number, right?) I really want it to just be a random room -- I don't think the actual room is necessary for the effect of their little faceless skits. That's just a little something that bothered me. Other than that I thought the special was very nice. Not great, not horrible, not overly moving... just nice. Which, of course, is better than some of the alternatives!!!

True Hollywood Story I have to agree with you Courtney. I did not watch it actually, but a friend/fan taped it and we chatted on the phone last night about it. She played me quite a bit of it. As you say, this was not a show about INXS, it was a show about Michael. And I also agree that if the band chooses not to participate, then that is what we will get!!! And usually the media, if it is not furnished facts by several parties, will expand or manipulate the truths in order to fill their time..... So if the band wants facts to be straight, or they want themselves presented in certain ways, then they have to participate. I actually find it sort of strange that they distance themselves quite this much from projects having to do with Michael. It has created a more morbid curiosity than ever before. If they had just come forward and answered questions, people would know from their own mouths, not from someone else's interpretations. I don't usually express my opinions in quite this way, but I have never completely understood the bands' position in this. They would rather have shows like this one come out and be seen by 1/2 of the world, than set the record straight and have some sort of control of some of the show's content.

True Hollywood Story I can relate and understand to everything that has been posted about the E! special and I do agree with alot of things everyone is saying. I do still agree wholeheartedly with Dennis as far as the initial impact of the special leaving me feeling disappointment. I just don't feel that, in Michaels case, you can truely focus on the man without focusing on the music. For me it was the music, the voice of that music and the words being sung that brought me to an incredible band and an incredible man in Michael. (as well as all of them). That's the part that touched my soul. I also think that INXS and Michael were about touching people's soul's through music. I saw the special E! did on Janis Joplin and I just got a ho hum drum "that was okay" out of it. Words and picture's just aren't enough to give you a sense of all that she was, to be able to appreciate her voice and to know and feel all of her all that she gave. I felt a bit uneasy about Mike Gee's interview. I didn't feel like he was speaking with the same endearment for Michael he seemed to express in his book. Kelland was the only one who really touched me with a feeling of love for Michael. It was all very rushed to me. Michaels death was a tragedy and there were some very stressed out, very emotionally depressing, very hard things in his life up to his death. I was just left me with an all negative feeling. There was and will always be something so incredibly special about Michael. I just didn't think they gave him or the band enough good credit. Everyone who has shared a moment in my life has shared a moment with INXS and Michael. There isn't anyone who would want the world to experience all that the music of INXS and Michael has brought to me, opened my eyes to see, and has given my soul more than me - if only for one day. I just don't see how you can talk about a man and relate to all that he was as a man or as a lead singer of a band without showing him move and see/feel the way he could mesmerize you with his stage presence. If I didn't know of him then how could I appreciate all that he was or feel a small part of him for that one hour so I would know what a true tragedy this really was. I'm not saying it wasn't okay, but I did think the special had a tabloid air about it - a very unpersonal air of just another story. I'm sure I need to get a grip and pull myself out of fantasy land - but that's just how it was for me. The special didn't leave me feeling anything special about it.

True Hollywood Story Leigh, I have to agree with you and the others who've posted about the E! special. While I was pleasantly surprised that it was less tacky than I had anticipated, it was a touch cold and not at all personal, it really didn't capture the essence of him at all. It was nice to see that they didn't focus entirely on the speculation as far as the cause of death, but they didn't really do much justice to the man that Michael was, or to the band. But, as Courtney said, if they refuse to participate, what are we to expect? I suppose we should just be glad that there was anything at all on something INXS related here in the states, I just wish it was something that would have inspired others to check them out!! Well, they just don't know what they're missing, and they never will if that's all they get to see. What a shame for them huh? Love, Peace & INXS forever!!

True Hollywood Story I realize I initially gave the show thumbs up, largely on their presenting the evidence of his death. But thinking about it more, I find it to be empty of the spirit of the band, ie their music. I know it was a show about Hutch and not the music, but you'd think they'd at least have clips of the songs just before and after commercials like Behind the Music does, to get you into it. I think the only song mentioned by name was Heaven Sent, but that's only to say it was written for Helena Christensen. I expected a clip of it to be played THEN, but they moved on quickly. But what makes me the most irritated is the distant portrayal of the band. So they declined to participate, but that doesn't mean they deserve any slights as a result. But throughout the show INXS are portrayed as being a drag on Hutch and holding him back constantly. "He wanted to break out into new pursuits but his loyalty to the band obligated him..." "He wanted to get those (INXS) gigs out of the way". You'd think he didn't want to have anything to do with them but he felt he HAD to record this or that album, or do such and such tour. That and the portrayal of the band's breaks after Kick and FMDH being solely the decision of Hutch, as if the others had no say. I have to say the I've changed my original review from a thumbs up to a...well, a shrug. I can't give it a ringing endorsement, but they did give the controversy surrounded his death an objective and responsible look, and at least American TV showed SOMETHING on INXS.

So please excuse me if I'm not 100% accurate in my thoughts here! >From what I can tell, Kell appeared in this documentary but in the end didn't want people to watch it - was this because he didn't approve of the final product? Considering that, can we then not understand the other members of INXS being reluctant to be involved in any kind of documentary that they don't have ultimate control over? Just because they are interviewed for a program, doesn't mean what they really want to say will be put across in the correct manner. Interviews are edited to 'fit' the idea of a program and can be manipulated to say just about anything. I work in the media (and am not always proud of it!) so have a pretty good idea of what goes on. OK - it's taken INXS a long time to publicly tell their story, but at least when it does get told, it will be 100% in their control and we'll hear exactly what they have to say - not some producer's idea of their story. As a fan I've found the silence over the last 2 years a bit frustrating, but at least the guys have carried themselves in a dignified manner. No-one could ever accuse them of 'cashing in' on Michael's death and I absolutely respect that. Anyway - that's just my opinion! Best wishes to everyone for a very happy festive season.

True Hollywood Story I was going to be quiet here, but I feel the need to express my feelings. Does anyone know WHY the band did not do the interview for either E! or VH1?? And perhaps the E! show did not use any music of INXS because they did not want to get in trouble with the band?? The story was based on Michael's death, not his sex life, not his life as an INXS member. He was going to get into his acting career and I see nothing wrong with that. It was really sad that Elegantly Wasted did not make a big splash (personally, I love this cd!!) That would be pretty depressing that so called fans (not us, of course) thought that INXS did their best work in the 80's. This has happened to many, many bands that had hits in the 80's. (think about it - how many bands from your fave songs of the 80's are still on the radio?) If we lost a job we loved, would we not try to get into something else? Besides, wasn't this going to be the last time INXS did a concert (for Australia)?? Forgive me if I am wrong, but I thought it was to be a farewell concert. So, go ahead and flame me for my opinions here, but how many of us KNOW the truth behind the stories? This is a good time for the band to tell us.

I mean...even on his solo album, he only cowrote the songs. he needed help. did he even play any instruments on his album? according to the liner notes, it doesn't appear so. michael was (in my opinion) the best singer in the world, and he wrote some damn good lyrics...and it seems he did participate a lot in the music the band created...but he really couldn't have done it alone. without INXS, where would he have been? I mean...should I assume that the only thing you like about INXS is michael's voice? that it would be fine if we took away all the music and just had him singing? I kind of doubt that. imagine michael singing need you tonight without that funky guitar, or never tear us apart without the strings or sax solo... and just how do you expect INXS to endorse michael's album? should they go on TV and say, "buy this album, it's really good!"? I mean, INXS.com has all kinds of news about the album...they even have a tribute to michael! I don't really know what you want from the guys... and as far as them not participating with the E! or VH1 programs...if you saw the E! program, you'd notice that it wasn't the best quality program...I mean, they got a lot of facts wrong. why would the band want to participate in something like that? and, the program was about michael, not INXS. I'm sure the band sees that michael was a part of INXS, and not a seperate entity. what good would it have been for them to participate in the program? what difference would it have made? the show would be exactly the same, only with interviews with the rest of the band. it would have still been shoddy and unfactual. it does bug me a little bit that INXS have been so silent these last 2 years, but it's really none of my business. I'm not in their shoes, and I don't know what they have to deal with. I can't blame them for something I can't even understand. they have every right to want to tell it how they see it. I mean...it's their lives, so who to know better than them?

While some of what you may write may ring a tad true, I don't think I would go as far as you in saying that the rest of INXS is nothing without Michael. All of them are pretty talented folk, and all of them have done really nice side work of their own with various other artists. The reason Michael always got the press and attention was because he was the lead singer (not to mention the most charismatic member of the band.) I do completely agree with you, though, that the band has been *conspicuously* quiet about Michael's album. They should be doing all they can to promote it so that it's a success -- but instead they're doing nothing about it. It's almost as if the band's ego can't handle Michael's solo work being more successful than an INXS album -- even though he's passed away. That's a bit pathetic actually. If anyone cares to disagree and show me how the band members have been promoting Michael's final work, please share it with me! I'd love to be proved wrong on this one. LU4INXS@aol.com wrote: > Does anyone know WHY the band did not do the interview for > either E! or VH1?? Well, the party line is that they are concentrating on their own official documentary and photography book. Why they couldn't also help in these other programs is beyond me. Rather than shun and get all upset about an "unofficial" documentary that may slam the band, *why not help them to do it right*? Of course, this does all raise the question of self-serving interest... (the band will likely reap any profits there are to be made from sales of the documentary and photography book.) I don't confess to understand alot of what the band does these days, but after the whole website war of a few months ago, I don't really care to understand either. I'm an ardent fan of INXS' music, and always will be -- if not necessarily the band anymore. I know there are more than a few who share that sentiment, so we'll leave it at that. -- Neil Kothari UMDNJ-NJMS 2000 -- http://www.umdnj.edu/~kotharne/ An Excess of INXS -- http://inxsweb.com/ X-From_: nanci@smtp.digitalcastle.com Tue Dec 7 19:42:27 1999 Sender: inxslist@smtp.digitalcastle.com Errors-To: nanci@smtp.digitalcastle.com Reply-To: inxslist@digitalcastle.com X-Listserver: Macjordomo 1b10 - Macintosh Listserver by Michele Fuortes Date: Tue, 7 Dec 1999 18:44:57 EST From: CanneDo2@aol.com To: Multiple recipients of Subject: INXS: Re: E!

I have a feeling VH1 will focus much more on his personal troubles and the tragedy rather then his life as a whole. And that wont be so good either.

If I repeat what someone else has stated, I am sorry... I didn't get the chance to read everyone's post on it... BUT I do have to say, BRAVO to Courtney... I agree w/ everything that she wrote... :) Okay, I am prepared, I MIGHT get flamed for this, but I think I should be able to express myself... this is just my opinion... it's kind of long, so I'll warn you all ahead of time... Yes, I agree that it was way too short and well, the commercials just bugged me, too... First off, I think that E! did a great job on the documentary. We (as fans) should give them credit for getting most of their information correct. I say that because the guys were not there to tell them, BUT Michael's family was and gave their side of the story. We shouldn't all be complaining, because we should be thankful that we fans, here in the states, FINALLY got some coverage on this issue. One question though: if the family members didn't want us to believe these shows that are put out... then why was some of the footage of them put in there?? I have nothing against any of the family members, but it just makes me wonder... I really don't know or understand why everyone is getting so upset that INXS wasn't included in this. You guys should have known that by the title of the documentary: "ROCKED TO DEATH: MICHAEL HUTCHENCE." No where in the title does it mention INXS, just Michael Hutchence, so that should have given it away right then and there. So that's why they didn't mention anything about INXS in there, because it was a document on Michael. I am no way, shape or form bashing INXS in anyway, because they are my favourite band (besides depeche Mode & Garbage :) I love each member the same, but Michael was always my favourite. So, I guess what I am saying here is that just because INXS wasn't mentioned in this documentary, it's okay. This was a story on Michael and his life and what hell (pardon the french) he went through the years. Yes, if it weren't for INXS, Michael wouldn't be where he is today... meaning, maybe we would have never heard of Michael Hutchence... then again, you never know... INXS will come out with their own documentary and then we can go from there... maybe the guys just weren't ready to talk to the media about these shows. Maybe the started taping the documentary right after Michael died and it was too early for the guys to talk about loosing their best friend. We don't know... but I am sure there is an explanation for everything... we just have to be a little more patient... I know it's been two years now, but things take time dealing with these issues... I wasn't able to talk about my best friend's suicide 5 years ago until 3 yrs after Darren's death, so give it time... when they are ready... we'll know... :) Just hang in there... Well, I think I've said what I want to say... take it as you will... I still think E! did a great job... and so we'll just have to wait and see what VH-1's Behind the Music has to say...but like I mentioned above... if it just says "MICHAEL HUTCHENCE BEHIND THE MUSIC..." do not get upset that INXS isn't mentioned, because it's mentioned in the title... Okay... I think I said enough... take care all... hope all is well with everyone... Ta for now... Michelle/Dutchie ICQ# 8331090 mmcferran@amfm.com "Some people come into our lives and quickly go.

As I've said before in this group, when I was on the Moody Blues mailing list, we were DESPERATE to hear about news from the band because nobody would do any specials on them. Granted, this wasn't the best special and I do have my own complaints about it, but overall it was a decent and tasteful documentary. Given a choice between this special and no special, I think Michael came out ahead this time. Something which I don't think has been touched on too much in here is the picture they painted about a rift between Michael and the rest of the band. When they hit on the Kick/X period they tried to make it sound like the rest of the band was resenting Michael's popularity, but this isn't something that ever really came out publicly before. The comment about Chris Murphy tring to keep Max Q a secret sort of fits in with this though. Quite honestly, it was a aspect of the band in general that I had never even considered. Of course, toward the end when we learn about Michael wanting to basically get the EW tour out of the way, I was torn because it seemed both incredibly selfish of him, but at the same time I had to admire his devoting to sticking around for the rest of the band when he simply could have made the decision not to go to Australia. On the opposite side, the documentary talked about the supposed resentment of Michael's popularity but never tried to make it sound as though the band was thankful for his contribution. Normally, I would think this was very one-sided of the documenters to do, but considering the band's reluctance to partcipate in the show I can't help but think this is true. If it wasn't, why couldn't they spare at least 10 minutes of their life for the E! camera crew to say how much they miss him? I dunno, I could be wrong, but considering how camera shy the band has been lately, they deserve any misrepresentations they get until they come out of the woodwork and start defending themselves. I have to chalk this up and yet another bad PR move for the band. tcn2000@interaccess.com wrote: > I also felt that they should have shown his more personal side. > At the end of the show, they have a total of one sentence about > how he was funny, caring, etc. However, we never heard any > STORIES from his parents or friends about instances where he was > caring, funny, loyal... with the exception of maybe Tiger, and > Martha Troup's story about how when he talked to you, you felt > like he was engrossed in what you were saying. I feel that > they should have also shown more of his dedication to the fans > and how he would take time out for THEM. But then again, this > show was just about his DEATH, right? I had a lot of mixed feelings along the same lines. With a title of "rocked to death" I was expecting them to get through most of his life in the first half hour, and then spend the rest on the reasons leading up to and aftermath of his death. However, they seemed to rush all the pressures on his life into the last segment. It felt a bit awkward on the pacing, but thats just me. Even though I found it interesting, I also thought it was a bit dry; more about him as a person definitely would have colored it up a bit. I think it could have been better, but I can also see where there was a time crunch regarding how much they could show. On ther other hand, the suicide and sex and drugs were handled very tactfully and its hard to ask for anything better in this respect. Some things could have been done better; I'm sure a lot of things could have been done worse. Like I said to start off with, overall I think Michael came out ahead so I won't complain too much. On a final note, I have to tip my hat to Mike Gee. Aside from Michael's parents, I think he handled himself more profesionally than any of the other interviewees. Compassionate, caring, well-informed, and was very careful not to say anything that would step on anyone else's toes (except maybe Bob Geldof, but who here cares about him anyway?). Once again, I think the band has made a mistake by aleining themselves from somebody who could do them some good in the public eye.

And if Hitler did a documentary about his life that was 100% over his control that it would be better? No, I'm not trying to say that the band are Nazi's, but the point here is that even the band has more control over their documentary you still can't paint the full picture. I don't see how "the bands ideas" are going to be any more objective that "some producers ideas", except that the bands will probably be a bit more pallatable. Even though I think the band's self-documentary will probably be more suited towards the fans, I have no doubt that there will still be a tinge of propaganda tied to it.

We don't. We're only *talking* and *discussing* what we would do in the situation; that's the nature of an email discussion list. It seems more a case that you can't handle the fact that some people (like myself) dare to think the band isn't handling their PR very well these days. I also want to second what Davy wrote about objectivity. However palatable the INXS-produced documentary will be, it can not be objective *by definition*. Programs like E! and VH-1's may have their own insidious slant to them, but as objective filmmakers, they shouldn't be dismissed. And hey, as I said before -- the band was asked to participate. Oh -- about the lack of INXS' music in the documentary -- it's certainly not E!'s fault. The band needs to give permission for E! to use the music... guess they couldn't bear to part with a few 10 second clips either. Yawn. > When they hit on the Kick/X period they tried to make it sound > like the rest of the band was resenting Michael's popularity, but > this isn't something that ever really came out publicly before. I guess I was under the impression that the rift was pretty well known. Murphy and the band were clearly pissed off about Max Q and Michael's growing popularity apart from the band (while they all remained in the shadows). It's to Michael's credit that he stuck with his mates till the end. > and just how do you expect INXS to endorse michael's > album? should they go on TV and say, "buy this album, > it's really good!"? Do I think the band should be coming on TV saying "Michael's album is great! I want everyone to buy it" -- You're damn right I do. Hell -- it's the least they could do. Here's a bit from Tim's chat: > Question from Nadia_H : > What do you think of Michael's Album? > > tim_farriss: Umm... didn't like the photo of me much! In fact, > can't even find it.

I had an "AUGH" moment in school last week. Actually it was in my sociology class; we're on the topics of child abuse, rape, all of that fun stuff. ={ Then my teacher tells us that we're going to be discussing suicide the following week: attempted, accidental, etc. Someone asks-- "what do you mean, accidental suicide? How do you do that?!" And my teacher goes on to say something, blah blah, and then I hear her say, "like Michael Hutchence, for example" Immediately, my ears perk up. Of course, none to my surprise, everyone starts to ask, "who the heck is THAT?! What are you talking about?" Sheesh. My teacher continues, "you know, that singer from INXS?" And some (obviously bright) guy says "Oh yeah, I remember him. Didn't he die of a drug overdose or something?" Oh God. I rolled my eyes at that one. Get informed people-- INFORMED!!!! Anyway, my teacher goes on to say "no, he accidently hung himself when... well, we'll get to that next week." All I could do was groan and think to myself: NOOOOOOO! I knew where this discussion was going to go, and I knew she had the whole AEA thing on her mind. I was distressed, majorly distressed. First of all, these students in my class have NO CLUE who Michael is in the first place. Now,the only piece of information that they're going to get about him is that he "died while mastrubating". They won't remember him for his music, his lyrics, his charisma/stage presence. They won't think of him as that singer who sang cool songs and died too young. No-- the only impression they'll get of him is that he was a drugged out rock star who died of AEA. So, I went up to my teacher after class and told her how much the subject bothered me, and that I thought it was unfair that the only relevant information that the people in my class were going to recieve was to be about Michael's AEA accidental suicide; and that was NOT how Michael should be remembered. I told her that it upset me that people were going to make conclusions about Michael just from this information, and being a big fan, IMHO I didn't think it was right. And so I guess this is when I realized why I was so scared about the E! special. I want everyone to remember Michael like I do-- as a talented, spirited person with such a gift for entertaining and loving people. I know that is an impossible dream, but I just want to 'spread the good word' about him, especially to the people who have no idea who he is. You guys get it, right? I want them to enjoy him and be introduced to some incredible music-- like I had been almost two years ago. I think this is why I was somewhat dissapointed with the E! special, because it didn't focus enough on him as a person. Yes, yes, I did realize that the title was "Rocked to Death", and what did I expect? But still, I couldn't help but hope... And now I'm hoping for Behind the Music to show that side of him =) But the worst thing about that day was that after class, one of my friends turned to me (because I was complaining about the whole Michael/AEA discussion to come) and said, "You know Tanya, I know you idolize the guy and everything, but get over it! Face reality! That's what happened! [reffering to the AEA]" Sigh. Anyone who tells me to "get over it" just doesn't "get it" in the first place. I think I'm going to show the class part of that E! special where they talk about Michael's mental state, accident, snap reaction. Then, maybe they'll 'GET IT'. AUGH!!!! So that was my extremely aggravating day. Just had to share it with people who might actually understand how I feel about this!

Face reality! That's what happened! >[reffering to the AEA]" > This is sort of in addendum to my previous email. I think most people--I'd say, perhaps, 90% of the general population--tend to have a favorite band for a year, maybe two or even three years, and then move on to some new band or sound. (And that explains the rise and fall of most musical acts through the years for the most part.) So it strikes those people as very odd that the remaining 10%--which includes us--would stick with one band for so many years. I've been a devoted INXS fan for 11 years. Others even longer. (Although I'm on the same boat as Neil when he says he's disenchanted with the band while remaining a fan of the music.) One friend told me some years back that I was the only normal person he knew who had stuck with the same band for so long (this was 1994 I think)! And people can't understand or empathize with you, and don't care to. So when something negative arises about Hutch or the band, they'll believe it, but just roll their eyes when you try to set the record straight, as if WE don't know what we're talking about, or rather are just fooling ourselves. It really does piss me off. But that's the world we live in, and we just have to roll with the punches and hope, just HOPE, that something like the Vh-1 Behind the Music special or the band's forthcoming documentary sets the record straight and hits big and reaches out to a lot of people. Because in this world, if it's not on television, it's not real. And that's why we face such an uphill battle.

People will always believe the worst about a given subject. When Paula did that special some months back where she insisted Hutch died of AEA, a co-worker of mine--who knew I was a big fan--snickered and told me about how he died of AEA. Of course there was no use in trying to correct him because he just rolled his eyes when I started. It's a real pain in the ass.

It's irresponsible for a person in that sort of position of power to impose their own beliefs like that. IMHO, that's like a teacher teaching Genesis on the day that kids are suppose to learn evolution! Yes, both are personal beliefs, but you can't step outside of the bounds of what is known to be true. Suicide is a subject matter that should never be discussed lightly by any educator. I'm guessing that it's high school because most college professors wouldn't allow their personal opinions to jade the facts without proper disclaimers! Being a political science major myself, I know that they all have their opinions and that's what makes their classes interesting, but they can back up everything they say with facts. I'm trying to choose my words carefully because 1) it's the teacher's prerogative to believe that Michael died some way other than "intentional" (i use quotes because I firmly believe this decision was made in less than a minute) suicide. and 2) I do believe that it is important for teachers to be able to influence the subject matter with their own opinions as long as it's not something completley out of line like this is.

I know I'm late with this, but I'd like to write some comments and also questions (Neil?) concerning Michael's solo-album. Beware, this is long, and might start some discussion since I also dare to share some critical thoughts. First of all, except for "A straight line" (which sounds a lot like INXS), the album sounds the way I expected it to do. Rather dark and electronical. In fact, I'd say you can really hear and feel the way Michael must have felt during the time he wrote those songs :( My faves are "Slide away" (does anyone agree this song reminds of DEPECHE MODE?? The groove!) and "Get on the inside", I dig that chorus and those minimalistic but effective guitar parts. One thing I have to mention. I think this is one of Michael's best vocal performances. Especially the last chorus of "A straight line" made me think "Did Michael ever sing THAT high??". A friend of mine, professional singer, agreed and said "Yeah, I didn't know he's THAT good" :-) Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think no one has mentioned the excellent musicianship on the album yet. As a musician, I have to admit I am stunned. The production includes so many many details, it's amazing. Thumbs up to Danny Saber, Tim Simenon and Andy Gill. They managed to combine electronic sounds with a warm overall feeling, and I know how heavy that is. I'd also like to mention Gill's incredible guitar- and bass-playing. This guy most definitly knows WHAT to play WHEN, HOW to play it and what it should SOUND like. A combination only a very few musician are able to do at once. Respect. Michael obviously chose the right people to collaborate with. Gill's bass-parts are pretty complicated, I tried to figure out the harmonies some songs are based on, and that was HELL, LOL! Questions concerning guest musicians... Bernard Fowler (backing voc. of the ROLLING STONES & singer for NICKLEBAG, whose album I love) and Stevie Salas (one of my fave guitarists & the other half of NICKLEBAG): I remember reading Michael used to jam with those guys in the VIPER ROOM (the club in front of which River Phoenix died, if I'm right?). - Does ANYONE know if there is a recording of that session? NEIL??? - How did Michael meet up with those guys (if it wasn't there for the first time)?? OK, I'm already done with my review, but I'd like to add one more thing. I have to agree with Neil: I REALLY miss the support by the remaining INXS-members for Michael's album. OK, there's a link to V2 on inxs.com, but that's it. The fact that the first site on inxs.com mentions "A straight line" failed to make the UK TOP 100 (for 6 weeks now) is already... well... not really necessary. Is it? Could they please mention it hit #2 in Indonesiaand the TOP 20 in Japan???? I read that on Neil's site, which focusses on the more POSITIVE aspects of Michael's album. And why did inxs.com add all those f***ing abusive reviews from the UK-press? I had to vomit reading those. Don't we ALL know what the UK reviewers think of Michael? Don't we know what "Fear" is all about? And "Let me show you"? Tragic-comic enough the UK-reviewers didn't even realize they look in a mirror when listening to those songs. Sorry, but I really can't see any positive side or necessary aspect of adding ALL those UK-reviews to inxs.com. Flame me. I also have to say the ONLY comment from the band we got about the album is by Tim in the chat "I didn't like my pics on it". Funny?? That might be OZ-humour and I might be too dumb to understand it, but why can't they say they actually like it or not? I don't judge, but I'd like to express my personal feeling of the lack of support for Michael's album by the band. Remember, this is MY opinion and point of view, I don't say it's true.

Well, regardless of how involved I have become with a band (any band), I usually tend to stay out of their "personal" or "internal" issues unless it is somehow related to the music. I guess I also suffer quite a bit from not "signing up" as a fan until just before WTWYA came out. So you can thump me on the head for ignorance all you want. Anyway, the point I was trying to make earlier (if it wasn't clear) is that some of the band's more recent actions are a little bit less confusing to me in light of this information. > Do I think the band should be coming on TV saying "Michael's album > is great! I want everyone to buy it" -- You're damn right I do. > Hell -- it's the least they could do. You know, I was thinking about this as well. (Look out! Rant ahead!) Just how often do we (the general public) expect bands to back up solo projects of their co-horts? When Natalie Merchant left, did you hear the rest of 10,000 Maniacs telling people to run out and buy Tigerlily? Genesis wasn't exactly jumping for joy when Phil Collins left (or Peter Gabriel for that matter). All the members of R.E.M. have a broad assortment of side projects which are never promoted by the band as a whole. Michael's album would have come out eventually even if he hadn't died, so I don't really see why we should expect anything different from INXS. Now, granted, I can't help but feel that there is a slight amount of animosity coming from the band about Hutch's album (Tim's chat being the case in point). I have to admit that this seems a bit unprofessional and/or uncaring on their part. You can slam them all you want for that, but as far as solo albums go, I think that lack of promotion from the "parent" group is just par for the course.

I mean, correct me if I'm wrong here but I thought that AEA had pretty much been ruled out (officially, anyway..) and that it was just a really bad combination of events at a really bad time, and then a split second of marred judgement resulted in Mike's horrible mistake that I'm sure (well, really hope) was an accident.

My feelings completely mirror Leah's regarding the Michael Hutchence E! story---i cannot believe they did not cover Michael without covering the music. I watched the E! documentary with a feeling of emptiness because they totally left out thngs that should have been shown, such as INXS performing live in their best moments (or ANY better clips than the ones which were chosen in the doc). I also feel they completely passed over the details of anything but the steps leading to Michael's tragedy. I guess they should have called it "Michael Hutchence-- an investigation of the superstar's death" because that's all they covered really. I was extremely disappointed and soooo hope that INXS decide to go along with someone who cover THEIR story. MTV once did an excellent documentary on them in 1988 which I still love to this day. Why not also make another documentary similar to the MTV 1988 coverage yet more in depth as to their stage performance and early years? Perhaps we, as huge INXS fans, expected way too much out of the Michael Hutchence documentary. Maybe all the time of silence built up a big expectation to produce a wonderful, magical documentary that has yet to be made. To close, I had a friend watch the E! show that never has been a big INXS fan, just liked some of their KICK singles, and told me that he was very disappointed. He was expecting more than just a ho hum story of the drugged out, worn out short life of a man.

Hi guys, Thanks for all of the understanding words, it makes me feel better about the whole situation. Just wanted to answer some of your questions about my "class discussion". When I talked to my teacher after class... well, first, lets understand that my teacher is almost staight out of college and about 25 years old, so I have to cut her some slack, also, she is a very nice person and I really like her. Sorry, I might have mistakenly given the impression that she was some cranky old 60-year-old woman who was mean to me and doesn't appreciate rock music. Not true. Very understanding woman, and she was really nice about the whole thing and considerate of my feelings. She said that when the topic came up in class, that I could say something about it and give my side of the story. Well, today was the day. I was very nervous because I did not know how the topic was going to be introduced, how long and detailed the discussion was going to be, etc. As it turned out, all we were doing was taking notes after notes after notes on the topic of suicide, and when we got to the notes on the different types of suicide, it was no big deal. When we got to the notes on accidental suicide, all she did was mention River Pheonix-- didn't mean to end his life. And she barely even mentioned Michael, and she didn't mention AEA. All she said was-- "And Michael Hutchence. He didn't really WANT to end his life; it was an accident" Now, some of you might still have a problem with this statement, because "officially", he DID have the intentions of killing himself when he decided to do it. BUT- most of us would also agree that if he had thought it over, he wouldn't have wanted to die. So in that way, it was an accident. Let's just say, I was satisfied. She didn't mention AEA and no one asked any questions. Like BPrice said: "when something negative arises about Hutch or the band, they'll believe it, but just roll their eyes when you try to set the record straight, as if WE don't know what we're talking about, or rather are just fooling ourselves. It really does piss me off." I didn't want to make a big deal out of it and start beating a dead horse. I know some of you might think I wimped out and that I still should've informed the people in my class about Michael. But no one seemed to care, and the last thing I want to do is try and force my "INXS love" onto people. So, I just let it go. I was just relieved that the whole thing was over! I'm also glad that my teacher probably took into consideration how upset the whole thing was making me, and decided to cut ME some slack.

But umm, don't we want the band's words ... isn't that what this aggro is about?! If they'd been interviewed for the E! documentary they'd still have had no say in the end product. I'd say the band has had plenty of experience with the tabloid media to be wary about being involved in something such as this. Am I right in saying programs like this E! documentary are made all the time? The truth is that making programs like this is just a job to the people who make them and they have to work within certain constraints. All programs such as these need a 'hook' - an issue, a controversy to bring them alive and to bring in the ratings (take the promos for example with the belt hanging over the door). Realistically, what justice can be done to a complex issue such as Michael's life and death, in an hour-long (not even) program titled 'Rocked To Death'? Neil Kothari" It seems more a case that you can't handle the fact that some people (like myself) dare to think the band isn't handling their PR very well these days.> This is an issue we all 'dare' to have different opinions on. The band has been criticized for launching their official 'net site around the time that Michael's solo album was released. If they came out and raved about the album they'd probably get criticism for trying to "cash in" - after all, this was Michael's way of "breaking free" from the band. Their site is full of information about Michael's album and previous solo projects. Of course the other guys' solo efforts get mentioned, but none of them are raved about either. They've made mention of the airing of various programs, endorsed or not, and have asked people for their opinions. We know Michael as a public persona - these guys grew up together and their whole world has been turned upside down. Maybe PR just hasn't been top of their priority list.

My 2 cents Hi to all my INXS friends, I have not posted anything for a whle,but I just wanted to express my opinions on the show and the views expressed over the past few days,1st- I'm glad it was something that we all had an oppurtunity to see(sorry to those who got burned with the Dice Man or could not access the show) that had something we can all voice our thoughts & feelings about,2nd We watched it at my house with my family & friends and recorded it(Let me see how the copy came out and if it is decent I will try to get a tape to those who need it , email me privately,) Third,fourth & fifth I can relate to all of your posts,because the 6 of us who watched it all had varying thoughts & opinions and just about everyone that night waited for a while to open up and speak our minds,so if in 1 living room with a handful of people could bring up discussions which have all been posted here I think we are a pretty sound group,other than that if we all agreed we might as well become a cult,Thank God we have the oppurtunity to express our individual thoughts,this makes for a healthy enviroment.Thank You and Happy Holidays to all.

Another person made a comment to the effect that the E! documentary should be invalidated because the band was not involved, which simply isnt true. Sure, I think the E! special should be viewed with some scrutiny, but I don't see why we should all together discount it just because "the band was not involved". > If they'd been interviewed for the E! documentary they'd still have had > no say in the end product.

Politicians do a really good job of taking their opponents comments out of context and I have no doubt that the media does the same. However, this is not ONLY time that INXS has turned down opportunities for TV shows. They turned down "Behind the Music" which has a excellent reputation and is a non-tabloid television journal. All we have heard out of the band is "well, we have our own documentary we're working on". Well, fine, but is that any excuse to be unco-operative to EVERY offer that comes your way? Is there a reason why you can't do that AND something else? If this were a singular incident, I could easily dismiss it, but the band has been far too recluse for far too long. > We know Michael as a public persona - these guys grew up together and > their whole world has been turned upside down. Maybe PR just hasn't > been top of their priority list. Yeah, right. If they didn't care about their PR right now then they wouldn't have had their website retouched. They wouldn't be doing public chats online. If Mudhead is going to sell any copies then you know Gary cares about the band's PR (and Jon for that matter if he has a solo effort he wants to get off the ground).

Hey guys, Has anyone heard the rumour that INXS was s'posed to be doing a New Year's gig at Sydney with Savage Garden? I was watchign the TODAY show this morning, and Richard Wilkinds was doing his weekly speel on the music world, and he was goign on about all the New Year gigs that had been cancelled and he mentioned a gig with INXS and Savage Garden that wouldn't be happening anymore. I hadn't even heard about this, but it was supoosedly meant to have been broadcast on Channel Nine. Like aothers have said on the list already, I'm surprised at teh lack of suport from the remaining band memebers of INXS towards Hutch's solo album. Afterall, he stood by the band the whole time, even when he was getting calls from Hollywood, he didn't leave them, and to quote him: "I'm so lucky, they like my test. They want me in LA straight away." But he wouldn't let teh band down, when at the time they were on the Australian leg of the EW tour saying "I can't walk off the tour." deciding Hollywood could wait. Also in RE to the sociology class, and ppl believing the whole AEA theory, i believe ppl like to believe in stuff like this thta happens to celbs cos it's scandalous. That's why magazines sell, they wouldn't really sell a mag if the story was more placid now would it. People like scandals, and it's more interesting to talk about, that's why they believe it, even if it's not true. I honestly don't believe we'll ever know what really happened, and I don't think I'd want to know. After going thru a similar situation earlier in 1997, where my cousin who was only 15 was found dead in bed one morning, and all the rumours spread in a small town, I don't believe it does any justice finding out what actually did happen. Is it gonna bring them back, is it gonna improve their image or tarnish it? Who knows? It really isn't worth it, I believe, after seeing what my family went thru. Well that's my thoughts anyway. That's it from me.

Slide Away was originally to be a solo effort, but Michael died before he had a chance to complete anything but the first verse and chorus. So Bono somehow became attached to the song, wrote the remaining verses, and then recorded those along with Hutch's track of the chorus and viola!

I am listening to EW and Everything came on. I am missing Michael very much today, I'm not sure why...anyway, I was kind of sad when this song came on and when he sang the line "No one else comes close to you" at the end of the song all of the sudden the sun came shining into my apartment and shone on me sitting here on the couch. This is weird because it's been cloudy here in Toronto all morning. I just felt warm and sort of peaceful at that moment and I thought, Michael is ok, and I'll be ok too. As kooky as it may sound I sort of took it as a sign because I was feeling kind of down. Last time something like that happened to me was about seven months after he died. I could not listen to NTUA because I would get really upset and teary-eyed, so I always skipped it on whatever CD I was listening to. Well, New Sensation on The Greatest Hits came on and only a few bars into it, my player skipped to NTUA. It never did and never has again skipped on me at all. I was so spooked I began crying! Silly, I know, but I can usually listen to it now without getting upset. If you've read this far, I'm impressed! Thanks for listening to my bizarre experiences. Back to lurking....

Well, I was very pleased with INXS being picked as #21 on MTV's Greatest 100 videos of all time. I started out watching this thinking I would end up disappointed and frustrated with most of the picks. But, suprisingly, they did an excellent job and I agreed with most of the picks. They would introduce the video and then only show 1/2 of it. But on the Top 25, they showed the WHOLE THING! So 1st, they showed a clip of Michael and Tim, where Tim was talking about the making of NYT. Then they showed it -- but I was REALLY suprised when they included Mediate as well! All of it!! (that usually gets cut out). After the whole thing was over, I flipped over to MTV2, and they were playing NYT and then Elegantly Wasted came on...WOOHOO!!! I was upset, because all day they've been playing 3 or 4 in a row of every artist....so I know I missed 1 or 2 others. Anyway, it's been a great day for INXS on MTV.

And, in this month's issue, the mag reviews Michael's solo album!!!!!!! ;-) It is included with reviews of Savage Garden's new album, David Bowie's, Natalie Merchant, etc... Here is the text of the review, which I feel pretty good about! _______________________ Michael Hutchence (V2) There's something undeniably creepy - almost wrong - about listening to a posthumous release. You can never quite shake the feeling that this may not be the fully realized product the artist intended. "Michael Hutchence" is a consistent record, however, with a more funked-up soul than the rock kick behind the rhythm of INXS. There are no surprises in these songs (most featuring lyrics littered with laments of fame's dark side), but the poignant "Slide Away," a duet with Bono, stands out. "Let Me Show You" and "A Straight Line" lean towards R&B, "Get on the Inside" and "Don't Save Me From Myself" toy with electronica, but overall it is Hutchence's voice ~~ soft or near screaming, but always familiar ~~ that draws you in. ~~Rebecca Wallwork ___________________ Patricia ===== * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * MICHAEL KELLAND HUTCHENCE "Good night, sweet prince, And flights of angels sing thee to thy rest!" ~~~ Hamlet X-From_: nanci@smtp.digitalcastle.com Sun Dec 12 11:46:57 1999 Sender: inxslist@smtp.digitalcastle.com Reply-To: inxslist@digitalcastle.com Date: 12 Dec 99 07:42:01 PST From: David Jones To: Multiple recipients of Subject: INXS: Re: [Chicago's Sliding Away!!! :)] X-MIME-Autoconverted: from quoted-printable to 8bit by smtp-2.mdc.net id LAA98395 "Fam.

I can remember when Billy Joel's album Storm Front came out that after a few singles has been released that a lot of DJ's in the states really liked "And So It Goes" so they started playing it on the radio. Pretty soon, the song started gaining popularity and started making many top 40 request lists. Officially, there was never a single released for the song, but because of a few DJs it has become one of Joel's more popular songs. And now, the point of this story: I have a feeling that Slide Away may end up becoming an "unofficial" single for the album until the "Straight Line" promos start showing up from V2. Since there is no official single yet, the radio stations are picking up album (either overseas or through promos) and finding the most "radio friendly" (Bono) song on the album to run on the air. Now, I wouldn't hold my breath thinking that "Slide Away" will become as popular as "And So It Goes", but we can always hope :-) Davy X-From_: nanci@smtp.digitalcastle.com Sun Dec 12 17:39:37 1999 Sender: inxslist@smtp.digitalcastle.com Reply-To: inxslist@digitalcastle.com Date: Sun, 12 Dec 1999 17:32:59 -0500 From: Sue To: Multiple recipients of Subject: INXS: SOTW#115 - Questions In responding to the INXS Song of Week you can give your opinions on the lyrics and music of the song, its strong or weak points, and/or any special meaning the song has had at one time, or still holds for you.

I'm just thrilled they've been showing vids besides the same ones that everyone's seen over and over. I'm sure a lot of people think INXS only had 3 hits and made 3 videos the way they're played over and over again. And they just announced that beginning Jan.1, they're going to play EVERY single video in their vault (MTV and MTV's) in alphabetical order. I wish they would do bands in order, not the song. They said it'll probably take months to show them all, so trying to catch all the INXS videos will be next to impossible. Oh, well...at least they'll be shown and OTHER people can see and enjoy them (and just maybe spark some interest in Michael just in time for the solo release). :)))) Lisa X-From_: nanci@smtp.digitalcastle.com Mon Dec 13 09:46:14 1999 Sender: inxslist@smtp.digitalcastle.com Reply-To: inxslist@digitalcastle.com Date: Sun, 12 Dec 1999 21:09:25 +1100 From: "GM" To: Multiple recipients of Subject: INXS: Re: Michael's album I dont know what all the fuss is about INXS not making any public support for Michael's album. INXS are not responsible for promoting the album. The fact that the album sells or it does not sell is irrelevant. Will the people on this list, or any other people who bought the album like the album more if it were number 1 and had untold commercial success...? I should hope not. Look at what is "popular" on the charts now and tell me if you would buy it. I don't think that INXS needs to show blatent support for the album. If people like the album they will buy if not then thats fine. I am sure that all the band members like the album and i think that mass album sales doesnt make the record any better than it is.

If you download elf bowling direct from www.nstorm.com there is no virus in the program. It is possible that somebody may have attached a virus to the program and started distributing it, but Symantec has yet to receive one. If you are REALLY worried about this, simply check the file size of the program. If your elfbowl.exe file is 1130496 bytes in size, then you are OK. (If you don't know how to check the file size, simply right click the game and select properties.)

What's important is that the band doesn't seem to care that there's an album out. It's the last work of their friend of over 20 years, you'd think they'd at least show a little excitement, but they don't. Tim is more concerned with his picture on the album than with the album itself. That's what the fuss is about. It goes much deeper than commercial success. No, they do not have a responsibility as band mates, but as friends, I think they do.

I always thought that the lyrics were a poor attempt to be profound, and for the most part it failed. Something like "How can you go back when you don't know why you're here?" is probably the only thought provoking statment in the song as opposed to "How can you act when you've never seen the script?" Well, gee, have you ever heard of impromptu acting? (Of course, I really think this is a lost art in this day and age, but I digres.....) The music itself is wonderful though. Catchy, Different, definitely unique. The 6 minute instrumental is one of my more favorite b-sides and one of the few flaws I would ever dare inject into WTWYA is that they didn't use the instrumental on the album instead.

But I am open to new > and exciting music as well. Me too -- there's lots of good music out there. Beck's "Midnite Vultures" is an awesome CD, Wilco's summer release "Summerteeth" is excellent, and Chris Cornell's first solo album "Euphoria Morning" is in many ways better than his work with Soundgarden. The new releases from Bush and Live are pretty good, too. There are tons of newer bands that I really dig, like Mansun, Tin Star, Orgy, Sixpence None the Richer, etc., etc. None of the new music could ever replace my INXS, Duran Duran and R.E.M. albums, but it offers some nice variety. Probably the best part of listening to new music is to see how they've been influenced by older music and whether they've taken it to a new level -- like Beck and Radiohead do. Although they're not the very newest acts out there, they're the two that come to mind. So yeah, it doesn't hurt to keep an open mind about new music. I think that everything is worth listening to at least once.

Unfortunately, you can't get it on regular cable -- you have to have digital satellite. But it's great -- they play all kinds of videos! 24/7! And from the 80's AND 90's. They play a lot of videos I haven't seen in ages and have forgotten about. And some that I've never seen. I hardly ever watch MTV anymore -- whenever they do play videos (which is hardly ever because of all those STUPID shows), they SUCK. VH1 and MuchMusic are pretty good, I think, but MTV2 ROCKS!! And they play INXS pretty often. :) Lisa X-From_: nanci@smtp.digitalcastle.com Tue Dec 14 09:09:34 1999 Sender: inxslist@smtp.digitalcastle.com Reply-To: inxslist@digitalcastle.com Date: Tue, 14 Dec 1999 09:01:23 EST From: Inxsnut@aol.com To: Multiple recipients of Subject: INXS: Re: E!

When I returned I switched on to INXS playing radio station Y101 and have noticed in the past few days it has been playing Jose Feliciano's "Felix Navidad" continuously. (How obnoxious!) No other music, no dj's explaining anything. So does anyone know out there - has Southern California lost another great English speaking/INXS-playing station to the Spanish market? I suspect this is the case and am ready to pull an Elvis Presley and shoot out the radio with a handgun (which I inconvienently do not have lying around the house, go figure...) No offense to the Spanish market but there are precious few stations out there playing our kind of music and Y101 was a fabulous station. I'm furious, and saddened - it's devastating to lose a favorite radio station and in the past three years I've seen three that I've come to love go away due to the hideous state of radio corporations in this country. It's just awful to see the music killed in this manner - things used to be so different on the radio.

(it's my understanding that it was a bicycle accident,btw). that's a little absurd, don't you think? the subsequent mental instability due to a brain injury is no one's fault and if they are angry they have no right to be angry at michael. not for something that was beyond his control. not for something that was the beginning of the end of his life. there may be a lot of reasons that any member of INXS could be angry with michael - getting a brain injury is not one of them. courtney ===== "My dad always used to tell me that if they challenge you to an after-school fight, tell them you won't wait--you can kick their ass right now." ---Cameron Diaz X-From_: nanci@smtp.digitalcastle.com Wed Dec 15 19:18:43 1999 Sender: inxslist@smtp.digitalcastle.com Reply-To: inxslist@digitalcastle.com Date: Thu, 16 Dec 1999 00:39:37 +0100 From: "Markus Pfeffer" To: Multiple recipients of Subject: INXS: Re: Michael's album >Why is everyone SO upset that INXS isn't pushing Michael's album?

It bothers me a lot to think that for most of the 90s, the implication is that the rest of INXS resented Michael even tho they continued to perform and record together. But if that is the case, then it is about time they put all this to rest, and gave Michael props for his album. Or maybe it is because he puts out an album after he has passed away, and they have managed to do almost nothing for the past 2 years. And I go back to something I have said before, most bands who lose a vital member of the band, for whatever reason, don't act like this!!!!!!!!!! Even if the death is from a drug overdose, other band members manage to have many public things to say about their fallen member. That is why I simply do not understand INXS's attitude.

Well I'd have to disagree there, there's heaps of new talent that I'm into, so much that I can't possibly get all the new albums I want to, (lucky I have a brother with similar tastes though LOL) there's Mark Lizotte (aka Diesel) Taxiride, Killing Heidi, Jebediah, among others that haven't released stuff in a year or so like Superjesus, Leonardo's Bride, Natalie Imbruglia and that's only naming the Australian acts. What about Blink 182, Foo Fighters, Bush, No Doubt, Garbage, Fuel, Smashmouth, the list goes on. Yes, there are some crappy bands out there that are 'manufactured,' all those pop groups, but some actually do surprise me with a decent hit now and then, like 5IVE, Westlife, Ricky Martin, Jackson Mendoza. Well I wouldn't say I grew up listening to the music most ppl on this list listen to, I'm really not into 80's music, I s'pose that's cos of my age, but I got into INXS right at teh end, ELEGANTLY WASTED, and have gone back and listened and liked most of their old stuff, so if I can back track and enjoy some of the 'old' music, how 'bout you ppl still living in the 80's time warp to the 90's and give the music a chance.

Facetious, you know. I really don't think he meant anything serious by it. And in their defence, I guess the guys think they're helping by holding back that album they've been working on, so as to give Michael's work priority in the market. But having said that, I totally agree, an "exclusive interview" here and there by the guys certainly wouldn't go astray in pushing it just a little. If jealousy was ever an issue, surely it just couldn't be justified now.

If I were in their shoes, I wouldn't push it, either!! They're not being in the least bit petty. I still subscribe to the theory that, deep down, they're angry. Angry at Michael's dying. Angry at Michael's unenthusiasm for the band, particularly after his motorcycle accident, angry over the years Michael would turn up late for rehearsals and gigs. >> Hi All, I've been trying my damnest to stay out of heated discussions on the list. But I have to put my two cents in on this topic. I do think INXS are being petty and childish. First off, out of loyalty for his mates, Michael stayed with the band long after the charm had worn thin for him. No, I don't know him personally. But this is the impression that many who did know him had. And this is the message that came across loud and clear during the Vh1 special. Here was a man who had acting offers being thrown out to him by major Hollywood players. And instead of dissing his bandmates and their history together, he went back to Austaralia to finish up their tour. (Out of Loyalty). And put his own interests on hold. It also seems that the other members of INXS saw the EW tour as a rebirth of the band. Yet Michael saw it as a swan song. Could be a rift there. Just speculation of course. I personally had not heard of the swan song idea until the Vh1 special aired. The man wanted to branch out with his career. As someone said "Michael saw the career of a rock star as a young man's career". And he wanted to begin on a new path. How can they blame him? He handled his responsibilities with the band first. And put his personal aspirations second. Could it be that the other band members thought that they could not achieve success without Michael? And they are pissed off at him for wanting to leave the band and/or for checking out altogether. My humble opinion is that no news is bad news. For a group of guys with so much history and friendship together to not support one another's endeavors is beyond me. It wreaks of jealousy. And the fact that Michael is no longer here makes their behavior even more deplorable. If this is not the case I wish someone from the band would speak up. Please tell us, the fans who have supported INXS for 20 years, why you are being so tight lipped about Michael and his album. My feeling is that the band is pushing us away. Maybe not all of us. But from the posts lately, many of us feel this way. They have been closed mouthed about everything from Michael's death to the future of INXS as a band. Please speak up and end all the speculation. It has been two years too long. And I for one am running out of patience.

Today I was driving around, doing my Christmas shopping, hopping from shopping mall to shopping mall at around 8pm. I tune into 101.9 FM as always. They've been playing some new songs lately. Now, i'm not really into listening to brand new stuff at the moment, sometimes you just want to listen to catchy songs that you already know. Are you getting me on this idea?

I thought it had a really funky feel to it, and I'm wondering whether I should give it a chance-- it was sounding pretty cool. I ACTUALLY THINK TO MYSELF, "this kind of soulnds like something MICHAEL would do- dark and groovy". The vocalist even sounded a bit like Mike- very familiar. But I think, well, I kind of feel like listening to something old, happy, and familiar, like something 80's catchy. I flip around to the other stations. Nothing good. Then, I flip back to 101.9, and the song is still playing. I listen for a few seconds, and realize- "OH MY GOD!!! It's SLIDE AWAY!!!!!" I did not expect this at all!

I don't think that all they think about is who can replace michael. if that was their main concern, then I think they'd have a new singer by now...don't you? they have played a few shows with guest singers, but have clearly stated that no one will ever replace michael. and about led zep's respect "even tho he was just a drummer"...I don't get that. is a drummer not so important?

They are hardly "small" gigs infact they are some of the biggest audiences they have ever played in front of, they may be short in terms of the setlist but the Mushroom concert was 70,000 people, the official opening of the Olympic Stadium was around 88,000. Granted the people weren't there just to see INXS play, but they still need to "cut it" as you put it to be able to perform infront of audiences of this size. Men at Work just mimed to a live tape at Stadium Australia to try and trick people into thinking they were live, it would be more appropriate to question their ability to "cut it" in front of a large crowd. As for the "small" Wonderland show it was just a charity concert for children and families to attend, to raise money for homeless kids so 3 of the band members attended to help out the charity. As they did last year for the childrens hospital when Kirk performed lead vocals. They are meant to be low-key small events. Matthew.

Slow down a little, sure, but I went to the "list of music mailing lists" and you would be surprised who still has mailing lists going: Paula Abdul, Culture Club, The Byrds (talk about reaching back in time!), John Denver (with all due respect, its kind of hard to be active when you're dead, but the list goes on), ELO, Debbie Gibson (ewww), and thats not even going through half the list! It also wouldn't hurt to remember that our band went four years without an album but we still managed to survive, the same with the XTC list and the Debbie Harry (Blondie) list.

I agree with ya Eric, i reckon that their've been tops with tha 3-4 different singers their've had so far. I look at it this way, INXS have still got tha same musicians who are PUMP'N out tha usual INXS style music, they sound like they used too. I've seen tha INXS trib band INXSIVE a few times, they sound & act pretty much like em. What'd it take Judas Priest, 6-8yrs ta finally put out a new cd with a new singer, their've deffinatly slowed down a bit. So who knows, INXS might reapear one day.

What they played today was: Night of Rebellion Soul Mistake To Look at You The One Thing Underneath the Colours Black & White The Loved One Just Keep Walking Don't Change Wishy Washy Stay Young Usually they don't play 'Night of Rebellion', 'Soul Mistake' or 'Wishy Washy' from this gig on the radio. However they usually include 'Fairweather Ahead' live instead before 'To Look at You', but they didn't today. Maybe they might continue to play different tracks next time they play it.

The whole reason I bought my first INXS CD (the greatest hits album) was because I loved NTUA; this was about 2 years ago. It's kind of odd that it was being played a lot on the radio at that time... But anyway, I decided to order the Greatest Hits because I really didn't recognize the titles of any of the other songs listed, and I thought I'd play it safe. If it was their greatest hits, it's their most popular stuff and I was bound to like/recognize more songs on that album than any of their other albums. When I played the Greatest Hits for the first time, I was pleasantly surprised/shocked to realize that I had heard "Disappear", "Beautiful Girl", "Devil Inside", "Suicide Blonde", and "Need You Tonight" before, I just didn't know that INXS sang them at the time.

The highlight being some of the sites of typical regional (away from the metropolis') Australia. Also more colourful and brighter then most INXS vids. There's a real "isolation" theme running through this video only to come together in the middle with that kick ass crescendo. It also brings into play the most worthy visual element that best emphasises INXS music.........."FIRE" ......specifically against darkness. You could imagine being cast into utter darkness alone in the desert, absolute pitch black....there are only two (!(:)) things that would reassure you 1. light, or 2. the sound of INXS. That's what I like to think anyway.....most of my INXS listening is in the dark. And you might catch a glimpse of a star or two.......shooting if you're lucky right? On a side topic I was noting the other day how INXS (Andrew) had a number of songs in 4:4 time where there was an obvious emphasis on the first 3 beats of particular bars in these tunes (esp. NeedUT and Kiss the Dirt+a few others).....I was wondering if anybody else knew of any other songwriter who made prolific use of this rhythm pattern. Or indeed if it is considered a cliche in some noted style? Michael Talon. I sense a revolution in the air I can see the changin ev'rywhere You know I can show you the way it's the direction of today Just sway a little, and sway a little more Just sway a little more.

The title on the record is just a Christmas message "Merry Christmas from Michael, Kirk etc. The song itself is called Happy Christmas not Merry Christmas I've been told. I originally thought is was called Merry Christmas as well like you because of the message, but was told to change it to Happy Christmas for the article on inxs.com. I transcribed the lyrics to Neil a few years back because they were not on his site, it's nothing to do with me what he titles it as, but as I said I always thought it was Merry Christmas as well so at the time I believed that was the correct title.

Most of these questions are answered on inxs.com, apart from what they personally think of MH's cd. As for what's new the latest news on the site is updated almost everyday, if not every couple of days at least. As for the doco/film that will be out the second half of next year. The cd they are waiting for MH's album to run it's course at least...there will be an album of some sort out in 2000 but there is certainly no release dates as yet, I'd suggest the same time as the film. If information like this was known it would be straight up on inxs.com for all to read. However the year 2000 will have plenty of stuff for INXS junkies...an album, doco/film, book, live appearances, plus solo projects. Some people it seems are under the idea the band just sit around doing nothing all day ever since MH died, when in fact they have been flat out working with young Australian bands especially. Garry's recording studio is regarded as one of the best to use in Australia which top bands such as Silverchair and the Whitlams used for their current albums for example. The band do like MH's album, Tim's comment in the chat about his picture not on it was just a joke he's always saying similar comments like that, some of you took it way too seriously! So what is it you want to know? You want the band to give their own thoughts on what they think of MH's album and what their favorite songs are on it right? It will be a bit hard to get these responses right now as the band members will be away during January having a well deserved break...so maybe in February as that is the time the album is released in America. If you have questions like this for the band just write them on the message board at inxs.com...Kirk was on replying to a question about the 'Mediate' video just a couple of days ago. If you haven't checked it out yet...there is a Christmas special on inxs.com with handwritten Christmas messages from all 5 band members, plus a video message from Tim, as well as some older Christmas stuff.

I've also thought it was Merry Christmas this whole time... it's really a question of semantics; I have no problem with changing it to "Happy Christmas" on my site. Re: Kiss the Dirt -- it's my second favorite video after NTUA. A beautifully crafted video, precisely because it's so simple. I remember how pleased I was a few years back when the video's director, Alex Proyas, struck it big with "The Crow." He has since gone on to direct the equally stunning "Dark City."

Oddly enough, the first ever INXS recording I ever bought was "INXS", as an import, back in the late 80s. I had actually gone to get a copy of Kick, but saw that in the import bin and grabbed it. Up until then I had pretty much existed on cassettes that friends had copied for me, and I was hesitant to buy LPs OR cassettes because I *knew* I would have a CD player, some day... I carried that around for FIVE YEARS!!!

I play the sax and I can fairly confidently say that the sax Kirk plays at the end of "Mediate" is a soprano sax...which is used to play music in higher ranges than can be easily achieved with his "usual" one, which is an alto (the same one I play). Hope that helps! However if I'm wrong I'm sure someone will let me know! lol Cheers to all and Merry Christmas!

So I'm guessing that there will be another CD out down the track sometime, well I'm hoping there will be anyway. While I'm writing I may as well ask a question I have. How many books are there out at the moment on Michael Hutchence? I have two at teh moment, Vincnet Lovegrove's and Mike Gee's, and in Vincent's it says there's three out so far, and now I've got the Ed StJohn book on order, are there any others out?

Now that I think about it, the only other person I can see singing NTUA is Bono. He could really capture that emotion and has a good voice for that type of song. No offense to Mellencamp (I have most of his records), but he would be the same as someone like Rod Stewart singing it-- the raspy-ness in their voices can be too harsh. Could it be the many years of smoking? Actually, there's a question. I'm a singer, and as a singer I'm always told to 'take care of my voice' and 'not to smoke'. But, obviously, MANY singers and rock star performers chain smoke and get away with it. Look at Michael. And its interesting that in many cases you can't hear the effects of smoking on their voices. I can't hear it in Michael-- or maybe I just haven't been listening close enough. And I remember reading that doctors were amazed that Michael could still sing during the final legs of the KICK tour. I would have thought that performing that often (for over a year), in addition with smoking, his voice would have ~kaput~ or developed cancer or something. Hmmm... Sorry to bring all of this cynicism to the table right before Christmas. I just had a little catfight with my parents =( Oh well, better to get it out of the way BEFORE the big family get-together, right? We wouldn't want flying fruit cake... Ouch! ;-) Love and peace and Happy Holidays!

Well, it's already Christmastime again, and I just wanted to wish everyone on the list season's greetings and a happy new year. As several of you know, this past year was not an easy one for me in practically every imaginable way, and I appreciate all of your friendship, support, and comfort during 1999. Next year can only get better! I especially want to wish happy holidays to my favourite band, INXS. They may not be reading this, but I know we all wish the band and their families the best throughout next year. Lastly, I wanted to say that this year's Christmas cards from the people contributing to the Christmas card list are absolutely amazing. Some of them are VERY extraordinary. Every year it's the INXS Christmas cards, without fail, that put me in the holiday spirit for the rest of the month of December. Thanks for letting me ramble on. Merry Christmas, everyone!

I never heard, or heard of, Michael having voice troubles because of smoking. I'd be curious to know if he ever did. Maybe if he'd continued into his 40s or 50s he would have had problems, who knows. I know there are many singers who lose their range or get a granier tone of voice from smoking, even incredible singers (although Mike ranks first in my book as far as incredible singers). Ian McCulloch of Echo and the Bunnymen is one who comes to mind. I saw two Bunnymen shows this fall, and he sounded awful the second show. He was nursing a cold as well, but I have heard from many others that his voice is in rough shape. He sound OK, but different, on their recent recordings. Michael, on the other hand, never seemed to encounter such problems ... just part of the talent he was blessed with, perhaps? Merry Christmas to everyone!

He's just gotten over a triple by pass, and after lunch started getting chest pains, and spent the night in hospital. They said it's most likely from eating too much, and indigestion. But the rest of the day was great. Now there's only one more big celebration to cap off an already great year (turning 18 and all) is New Years. I hope you all have a great night and the Y2K Bug doesn't cause you any grief. Now on with the rest... I reckon it'd be a great idea to have a Michael Hutchence/INXS Tribute Album. I'd like to see two versions, a celeb version, with the likes of Bono, Nick Cave, Kylie, and Natalie Imbruglia doing NTUA by herself. Don't get me wrong I love the version with Tom Jones, but it'd be even better to hear Nat sing it herself. And then a version where fans sing the songs. Seems there are heaps of good ideas coming from the list, I'd love to see it lift of the ground. Lastly, just thought I'd mention a SPECIAL being screened on New Years, it's called AUS (Australia's Ultimate Songs) and is hosted by Kylie Minogue. It starts 12:15 Friday night on Channel Seven, and it goes til 6:00 the next morning, so I'm guessing there'd have to be a few INXS songs on it. That's it from me.

Had a very merry holiday at my house. I swore I wasn't going to stuff myself with all of the heaps of Ukrainian food, but who could resist the saurkraut perogies? God knows I spent many hours making the 250 potato perogies (with my family) from scratch... I needed to reward myself! I got much cash from my parents (greatly needed and appreciated!) I warned my dad- "you know all of this moola is being spent bidding on INXS eBay auctions, right?" He just laughed and said "be careful!" My dad also bought me a bunch of INXS stuff for xmas (pins, a shirt, a hat-- what a guy!) I'm glad my family chooses to accept and indulge me in my obsession =) My cousins decided to turn the radio dial to the 80's station for the backround of our christmas get together (yay! hats off to them, since all they usually listen to is country!). At about 10:30 pm or so, when the party was winding down, what do I hear? No, not St. Nick on the rooftop-- Michael on the radio! Oh yes, "Need You Tonight" was playing! The perfect ending to a perfect holiday. Can't wait till New Year's-- this next millenium is the begining of my adult life: I'll be turning 18, graduating high school (yeah, Class of 2000! did my parents plan this?), flying the coop for college (heck yeah!)... Ah, the changes... sniff sniff Now about this tribute album- I've been thinking about it, and I'd love to do Mystify (the song being written in Chicago and all, it's fitting for a Chicagoan to do it!), but singing The Stairs always makes my spine tingle-- the words really get me. But yes, how exactly do we record these? And it wouldn't be extremely difficult for me get someone to play piano for me on Mystify, but what kind of backround would I do for the Stairs? Be creative I guess? If only I had a band and a recording studio all ready for me in my garage... THAT'S what I should have asked for for Christmas! ;-) Love and Peace, Tanya --- X-From_: nanci@smtp.digitalcastle.com Mon Dec 27 01:21:43 1999 Sender: inxslist@smtp.digitalcastle.com Reply-To: inxslist@digitalcastle.com Date: Sun, 26 Dec 1999 22:21:21 -0800 (PST) From: DAMIAN SHERLOCK To: Multiple recipients of Subject: INXS: Calling All INXSaries Gday all This Message was put up on the inxs.web message board a few weeks ago i thought i would post it again to see if more people are interested in this event as i am now one of the people that is involved in trying to put this together original message from the 3rd of december 1999 Just wanted to let you know that a group of us were having a chat tonight and have decided that we would like to throw a big INXS party in Sydney for any fans who would like to come....we've been thinking about it for a while and have decided to go with it! Now of course we understand that many people (myself included) don't live anywhere near Sydney, so we're thinking of organising it for Mike's birthday January 22 2001 so everyone would have plenty of time to organise themselves and save up..

We're prepared to go the whole hog and hire a venue, etc if enough people can make it.

The big issue here is that most chat rooms cant handle very many users. Neil's chat can only handle 25 people, which is standard for most chat programs. Notice that even with chat with the band that only a few people had direct write access to the forum because the server can't handle that much incoming traffic. If the idea is to get EVERYBODY in the same room together, your best bet would be IRC. There are several free IRC clients you can download and I have seen up to 1000 people in a chat room at once.

True Hollywood Story Hello all.... Hope the holidays were good to one and all. I haven't written much in a long time and just finished getting caught up on my email. Long, boring diatribe ahead, read on with caution... I recorded the E! show and watched it a couple of times. I thought it was fairly well done, about as well as it could be from E!'s perspective I guess. I did learn new info, I don't recall ever hearing about Michael's biking accident and the resultant head injury that did so much harm to his senses (taste and smell). Quite a few years back I had heard a show on talk radio about severe head injuries and the things that can come up later in life stemming from this types of injuries, mainly problems with rage and expressing that rage. It would not surprise me at all if Michael's death could be attributed to that injury, along with all the various legal/illegal drugs and the alcohol, on top of all the various pressures of rock stardom and personal relationships. It would seem that Michael was dealing with a whole lot more than he could handle on that particular night at that particular moment when he made his 'snap' decision. It would seem with all the phone calls he made prior to that decision were a desperate attempt at reaching out for a life preserver (sp?). Very, very sad indeed. There was a moment in the show that did make me stop and ponder the whole "Micheal=INXS" bunkery. The mention of Michael passing on various zine cover opportunities and the MaxQ cd being kept from promoting Michael's name in order to not have Michael seem to be the only member of the band worth mentioning, or in keeping Michael from being more successful in solo/side projects does not sit well with me. There was a mention here on the list quite a while back about the remaining band members still going forth without Michael because he was not the whole of the band. Can't remember the details. Well it would seem to me that if Michael does not represent the band on his own without the other five members, then it should work the opposite way as well...without Michael, the other five members are no longer INXS without Michael's voice to sing the songs. The thing that made INXS work, IMO, was the chemistry between all six members, Michael included. Everyone had a hand in making that awesome music. The remaining band members all have an awesome talent in the way that they create and play the music. There is absolutely no question about their talent. But, Michael played a part as well. It quite often happens that with bands, the singer seems to garnish all the publicity, be it good or bad, and the rest of the members kind of take a back seat to that. This in no way diminishes their obvious talent. But, I think it is going to be very difficult for INXS to find a new member to recreate the chemistry that is now out of balance. A couple of examples I could use to illustrate bands that have continued on would be Genesis and Pink Floyd. Genesis went on to have a great deal of success without Peter Gabriel as their frontman. It would also seem according to the BHtM on Genesis that there was quite a bit of tensions in the band regarding Peter's fame and antics as the frontman. In the end, Peter left and went on his own, a very good thing, IMO, as I'm a Peter Gabriel fan. Another great voice. I'm not so much a fan of Genesis, though I will not refute their success as a great band, gotta give credit where credit is due, they were quite good, just not my style. I'm a vocal-phile. Love a great voice. It's even better when accompanied by great music and lyrics. Pink Floyd went on without Roger Waters, and while they have not enjoyed the success that they had previously with Waters, they have a huge fan base that will still go out and attend concerts and buy the new music, me being one of them. In fact, I really didn't become a big Floyd fan until they came out with their first post-Waters album. David Gilmore is not only an awesome guitarist, but boy does he have a great voice as well. I love it when he hits high notes with both his voice and his guitar and the two blend together until you only hear one sound. There's plenty of bands that try to carry on without the original frontman, some succeed stunningly, some fail miserably, and some just enjoy a so-so success that keeps the paychecks coming in. There's also bands that I could not see continuing on without the frontman voice such as the FIXX....no way could they go on without Cy Curnin's awesome voice nor his lyrical style. But, while they were pegged as an 80's band and did enjoy pretty good times during the 80's, they still carry on today, not for the fame and monetary rewards, but for the love of the art. I don't know where the remaining INXS members will go from here....there's lots of possibilities and if they wish to carry on, I guess they will. Maybe they could look within their remaining numbers to see if any of them could step up and take over singing duties. I've never heard any of them sing solo before, so I have no idea if this would be a consideration, but if it were, they would still be INXS, even without Michael. If they were to try to carry on with a new singer, I think it would be better to change the band name to something new. Who knows? Only time will tell. One thing is for sure, there is quite a collection of albums behind them to always entice some new fan who should stumble upon them, and to keep their memory alive in the past/current fan base. They were a success and thanks to ALL of THEM, I/we/you have wonderful music to listen to. "LOVE and PEACE" to all....

I love this song as well....And I do indeed love that voice. For some reason, though, it make me think of "The Messenger" and I had to go and listen to that song, and try as I might, I can't see any reason why I think of that song when I listen to Get On the Inside. I think it's the way Michael sings a certain part that reminds in some way of The Messenger. Having since listened to both back to back, I no longer feel any connection between the two songs. Strang, to say the least. GOTI is a great song though. >Slide Away is so >cool..but it makes me cry everytime I hear it...Bono really made that a >personal song ...it takes you away alright.. While I don't cry, it is a rather ironic statement that is made...."I just want to slide away and come alive again..." almost kind of eerie being the last song on the cd. I agree that Bono did indeed give it a very nice personal touch. I remember the one and only time that I went to stand in line for U2 tickets (Zoo TV), I was really suprised to see some other U2 fan wearing an "X" t-shirt...up until that point I always thought that I was alone in the particular mix of music that I listen to. I never realized either, until after Michael's death that he and Bono were good friends. That makes me like U2 even better now. I've been of fan of them since the Joshua Tree album, but had a really bitter taste in my mouth after the Zoo TV concert here for reasons I won't go into. Now, I've decided that it's high time to get my U2 cd collection completed, and I am looking forward to their new release as well. Perhaps Michael's final and unknown gift to me. Anyways, I listen to my cds at work when the radio gets boring, and for right now, Michael's cd and the MAX Q cd are my faves to listen to. Each time I hear MAX Q I like it more and more. Michael did indeed do a lot more experimentation with his voice at that point, and no matter how much I listen to the INXS cds now, there will always be that element missing in them. Each time I listen to MH's cd, a different song stands out to me for that day. Once again, I find myself with no absolute favorites, but with a treasure box full of wonderful music. Now, as for Michael not having played an 'instrument' on his cd...I beg to differ here.....His voice was his instrument and he played it utterly well. Better than well. Well...."LOVE and PEACE" to all and a happy new year as well....when it's the eve of 2001, I will wish everyone a happy new millenium...until then, it's just another dang number change.... :) and barring any whack job nut cases that will surely to be out shootin' up the town...I'll be back again in some other boring message.

You want the band to give their own thoughts on what they think of MH's album and what their favorite songs are on it right? It will be a bit hard to get these responses right now as the band members will be away during January having a well deserved break...so maybe in February as that is the time the album is released in America. If you have questions like this for the band just write them on the message board at inxs.com...Kirk was on replying to a question about the 'Mediate' video just a couple of days ago. >> Hi All, Since Mathew asked what we want from the band re; MH's solo, here's the answer. "RECOGNITION" for an awesome work from their buddy. Perhaps a personal critique of the album from his bandmates. Maybe a few strokes for a job well done.

I've heard at least four of their songs and the DJ just played The One Thing (they're up to the t's now!) and had very complimentary things to say about the production values of the song and what an incredible blast of sound it was, and how he remembers how great he thought the song was the first time he ever heard it. It was great to hear a dj speaking so respectfully about our boys! And he was right, too! What a fabulous song - I remember it as my into to INXS too.
