ABSOLUTELY RIGHT

I was in a band in the 80s and we supported INXS on their 'Listen like thieves' tour. Michael was very thoughtful and once stopped INXS sound checking too long so that my band could have a decent soundcheck. He was a star totally devoid of ego and a really sweet person.

I was lucky to call Michael my friend, a chance meeting on a plane in 1987 on the way to Sydney. Later hanging out at Rhinoceros Records while they recorded "Kick" and much more. Truly in 39 years in Entertainment, the best person I have ever Known !

I've seen Bono, Mick Jagger and other legendary icons live, but I was never so intoxicated by the aura of a person than when Michael took the stage. He had an otherworldly presence that only other's who've seen him live can describe.

@Naomi Starkey, in December 2016 Michael, together with Andrew Farriss , was inducted into the Australian Songwriters Hall of Fame. It was the first time the award was given posthumously. It was a recognition long overdue and one that I am sure would have meant a lot to him.

Their music was soulful and wonderful to me. I even had a jean jacket with his face on one sleeve and Paul McCartney on the other that my brother made for me! There will never be another Michael Hutchence...he was my generation's "Jim Morrison" he was so awesomely wonderful!!!! can't wait for this movie!!!

INXS fronted by SIOUXSIE SIOUX

I cried my way through the whole thing. And I'm the person who thinks it's silly when someone cries after a famous person they never met dies...this was an incredibly moving film. I was lucky enough to see INXS in August 1997; three months before Michael died. I'd been a fan since Kick, like everyone else, and was just devastated when I heard the news on November 22. Seeing this revealing portrait of the man behind the "show" was touching and makes me love him even more. I hope that he is at peace and knows just how much he is loved and missed to this day.

I saw Michael live three times (Kick tour and X tour in Milan, Elegantly Wasted tour in Wien), and they were memorable moments for me. Not only Hutch, but INXS were such a fantastic band ... they moved in perfect harmony, smiled at each other, emanating an energy hard to describe. But in the last concert, in Wien, if I remember correctly April 1997, I realized that there was something different about Michael ... a lot of energy ... a lot of love for the audience .. but also something self-destructive.. (he took off his shirt and shoes, threw himself on the audience or lay on the stage .. on his face there was joy and liberation, as mentioned in the trailer .. probably thanks to INXS, his brothers, he was forgetting his troubles).. like a star in the moment of its maximum brightness. At the end of the concert I stayed at the barricades for about an hour ... I looked at the people who were moving away .. but inside me I felt that something was wrong. It's been 22 years, but if I focus on that feeling, I can't help but cry.

It's tough to lose your light. Maybe he shined just a little too much....but, that was who he was. I bought the Live from Wembley 1991 concert, and will be buying this as well. I loved this band! Michael DID have it all....and then, took it all away. What a shame.

Only one thing better than seeing INXS Live is waiting in the queue and the band turn up for sound check and stop to chat, sign autographs and pose for photos with us. What a night! Will never forget! RIP Hutch.

New Sensation at Wembley stands as the greatest concert footage ever...with this guy out front.One of my favorites

Saw it tonight at AMC. Absolutely phenomenal. If you are a fan, you will cry. A++

I am a fan of 1000 bands even 10,000 bands..... I am old enough to have remembered the day Elvis died John Lennon died Kurt Cobain died and countless countless other fantastic rock ‘n’ rollers.... but I was never as gutted the day Michael did.... every time I go out or go to a show INXS are part of my go to soundtrack.... We all wonder how much more brilliant music INXS would have given us.... every recording they have ever made that will last 10,000 lifetimes......

I have been literally obsessing over him the last few days, and I have no idea why. I forgot how talented he was, I loved INXS back in the day. That voice was so powerful and husky. I cannot think of a more charismatic, talented and sexy front man than Michael Hutchence. He really was the last rock star. Where are they now?

I swooned over him in the 80's/90's and tseeing that concert re-ignited my massive crush. He, without question, is the absolute sexiest, most gorgeously enchanting man I have ever laid eyes and ears on. The entire band are beautifully talented...and Gary's pretty cute as well. Beast band ever...

I will never forget seeing INXS at Festival Hall for the Listen Like Thieves tour in mid 80's. I was standing three rows from the front & as soon as Michael walked on stage his energy filled the room, it was strong & potent. I'm looking forward to seeing this movie.

Boy is the movie heartbreaking. Now I understand more why things ended up the way it did. Rip 😥

I have always thought of Michael Hutchence as my generations answer to Jim Morrison! Great Talent & gone, far too soon! NXS, was a class act! 🤗😢

I was blessed growing up in Australia and in the late 70's and into the 80's - music and the pub scene was just mind blowingly fabulous... we had so many talented bands and musos... How could you not be intoxicated by INXS and the huge part of that - was purely Michael... his unique voice and of course, just his mere presence that I don't even think he completely understood... I can remember being so excited about them being back in Australia - back rehearsing for the last part of the tour in 1997 and couldn't wait for them to arrive in Melbourne for the show. I still remember the devastation when the rumours rumbled across the radio airways that awful day - about his passing... it was just pure disbelief... and the tragedy of it - unimaginable... which ultimately all turned out to be true. I've seen the movie twice and cried my eyes out - the reality of all of what Michael endured - is just heartbreaking... And for all those people in the universe that think that Sir Bob is great... and even the rest of the band's selfishness - is foremost and present.....truth be told, Michael was always irreplaceable... must be hard to be reminded of this..... Clearly he was in trouble.... mentally, emotionally and physically - clearly he was overwhelmed and consumed with sadness, heartache, heartbreak and just feeling completely alone... Hard to believe when you are one of the world's most charismatic and charming - flawed human beings... RIP Michael forever... I miss you and your beautiful swagger and voice.... They were always brilliant live... He was blessed with untapped talent... all unbeknown to him... Kylie, he didn't just break your heart... he broke millions of hearts around the world... Thank you for sharing your personal memories and times... What an amazing docu - beats the "biopics" that have come out in the last 12 months... Thank you for sharing this incredible footage, moments in time and the care and love making it...

I'm also not saying Michael was innocent in it all either....

I went to see INXS live during the Kick Tour, front row the people in the documentary are not making it up. He looks at you with care and fun and wants to make sure you are having a great time. Sings like you would believe and has the band so tight in the groove.

Michael Hutchence was incredibly charismatic with a stage-presence the likes of Mick Jagger can only *dream* of having. I’ve seen many overseas acts and also saw INXS live often, Michael remains the most alluring frontman I’ve *ever* seen.

I saw this in Wellington last month at the NZIFF at the Embassy and was blown away. I was at Australian Made in 1987 in Melbourne and have seen Bowie and this was the most incredible performance I had ever seen. Not many have come close since. His head injury explained so much of why he got so lost. I really grieve for his beautiful daughter to not have had him for the rest of her life. I walked out completely stunned it took me days to get over the impact this had on me. I looked around the theatre and saw so many other people feeling similar mixed emotions. Thanks to the film makers it is incredible work and I am really grateful to have seen it. Aroha nui

So thankful for the great feelings that he, and the band, and the music have always provided me. I get frustrated when I think of the tragic end that he did not deserve. I try to imagine, if 97 didn't happen. Maybe one more resurgence for INXS. One more top 10 hit, with a successful tour in the era of an expanding modern media. Then, finally winding down, making mommy's dance at the 80's fests. Rock hall induction. Occasionally stopping by for a laugh, and sharing stories on tv . It just wasn't meant to be.

Omg!!! I really need to view this!

I love how this documentary avoids the boring Talking Heads and instead has voices over video footage. Really well done and engaging. Amazing life he had.

I've had a blessed life... Saw INXS when they were hardly known at the Ocean View (I think?) at Toukley... Then so many nights in Sydney. Best night for me was at Selina's, Coogee Bay Hotel. Divinyls 1st with Chrissie in full flight followed by INXS. The "purple haze" was a fog that night... RIP Hutch...the GOAT of Rock's Front Men...

This band has been my all time favorite since I first hearded in 1989. I will never forget seeing INXS in concert in Caracas, Venezuela on April 30th 1994 ( I still have the ticket slipped in the “Live Baby Live” album. When he died three years later I was crushed on November 22nd 1997. I just couldn’t believe it because he was an amazing artist, performer and sweet soul. A few months ago I have felt the urge to look everywhere for videos, documentaries, etc. In order to see them again. I surely miss Michael Hutchence and the band! Looking forward to see this new documentary.

I saw this film last night. Fantastic, unseen private film footage & well documented. As much as i love INXS & what they done for Aussie music, i was more interested into the Max Q project & his different style moving forward.

From his funeral : Do not stand at my grave and weep, I am not there, I do not sleep. I am in a thousand winds that blow, I am the softly falling snow. I am the gentle showers of rain, I am the fields of ripening grain. I am in the morning hush, I am in the graceful rush Of beautiful birds in circling flight, I am the starshine of the night. I am in the flowers that bloom, I am in a quiet room. I am in the birds that sing, I am in each lovely thing. Do not stand at my grave and cry, I am not there. I do not die.

Es mi grupo preferido!! Tiene canciones hermosísimas! Quiero verlo en pantalla grande! Por siempre Inxs!

Never in my life have I seen anything like him before, he was part animal part human, moved like a cat and had everything... What happened to him was a complete and utter tragedy. That brain injury was far worse than first expected and it killed him in the end. There are lots of internet posts going about over this subject right now and its become apparent where he was heading.. :( He even started to forget lyrics in concerts during 1997..... yeah it all got too much and he was a suicide risk and then it went bang. Totally tragic. A talent like that. The taxi driver who did it needs shooting

I remember - i was 17, was hoping for some news of an INXS tour - Mtv news came on and Kurt Loder said Micheal was dead. It's hard to believe I'm older now than he will ever be. Hard to believe he has been gone nearly 22 years. Such a loss. 💔

My favorite band he had such a great voice

In walking distance to Thornbury Picture House now for just over a year suddenly had a must watch this today and go there for the first time. Thankfully I did and have just come walked through my door. Through out the entirety I was acutely aware of my breathing, lulling around the moment when taxi driver incident occurred and taking it back again once Michael almost regained a sort of conscience. An 80s teenager was always impressed with the name of the band and the deliverance of Max Q, but never a massive fan until there was a song I'm searching into my brain on that Rave night where an INXS song was given a dance beat to it...Then I got it. Wasn't diagnose with ADD until the age of 38 now recognise a lot more about wax lyrical and others not. Heart felt thoughts to all and thank you Mr Lowenstein for putting this together.

Wow what a great doco its done so well A Big Thank You Dick Lowenstein and Madman films & Tiger for getting the copy right for INXS songs to be played on this doco.... 11/10

Saw this last night at an advance screening and it is well worth it.Untold amount of unseen archive footage and interviews with those who knew him best with the perspective of time since his passing.Well done Richard Lowenstein.This deserves awards.

1982 i was watching a show called good rocking tonight here in Canada and it focused on INXS from the launch you just knew this band and this guy (michael h) is for real // our time this was our sound like those before us had beatles we finally had something // fuck i miss this guy and what he and INXS created
