I was OBSESSED with Michael! Saw INXS play at Wembley when I was 16, think I became a woman that night, he was the sexiest thing I'd ever seen. Such a tragic end to an extraordinary life.
I’ve seen the doco - loved loved loved it , absolutely heartbreaking 🙏 so well made 🙌 I saw INXS perform many times in the early eighties in small Sydney pubs and he was mesmerising 🥰 What a tragic loss it was for his family, friends, fans but especially his daughter 😢
INXS provided the soundtrack to my youth and I followed them from the early eighties in Australia when they toured the local pubs in Sydney. I don't think I have ever seen another artist who could command a stage the way Michael did - he was literally sex on legs. Can't wait to see this and I'm glad it has been done by Richard Lowenstein who I know will have done him justice. He will never be forgotten X
I was living in Sydney when he died not far from where I lived, I passed by the funeral as it was finishing. It was such a huge shock for everyone. I re-watched an interview with Paula Yates recently and it made me question her version of their relationship. Also, strangely I suffered a head injury a few weeks before I moved to Australia - I was punched and knocked out - and feel that it did change me, but it is difficult to be objective about it yourself and I was then living with people who didn't know me well, although one did say 'Where has the old Clare gone?'. Looking forward to the documentary.
Mark incredible that you got to film Michael so close to his untimely death, yet at the peak of his life. Michael was as intriguing a person as his music was amazing. At the time and then following Paula’s death, I was obsessed with watching RUclips about them as it was such a tragic love story. I have read recently about Tiger-lily not having any access to her dads money, so the story goes on. Had no idea there was an up coming new docu so a big thank you to Popcorn Junkies for this, I will definitely be watching 👍💕
There was a documentary the other year called the last rock star but apparently this is better cos its had the green light from Tiger and others. The last one was very uncomfortable it even had the last lyrics /note left in his hotel room where he was found it was very dark. This one I think is made by a director friend of Michael.
"The knock on the head" caused a TBI and PTSD. Life-changing. Very difficult to live with. People need to know more about these things. They affect everything about you. Same happened to me when an old man with a suspended license who "just wanted some Taco Bell" ran me down with his pick-up truck. I was literally pinned under his tires and he didn't even know. It's been over 6 years and I'm still not fully recovered. It may never happen. This woman is too nonchalant about it.
Here in Australia Michael hutchence was an Australian icon here & always will remain! The stories I've heard that night Michael was out drinking with his girlfriend they grabbed something to eat as they crossed the road Michael was almost hit by the taxi, he was acting like a tool wouldn't let the taxi go by, the taxi driver got out of his car & he hit Michael, michael hit his head on the road & that pretty much changed michael's life after that, his personality totally change, became more aggressive towards the other band members & friends!
From what I’ve read, Michael had changed after the taxi driver pushed him & made him fall and hit his head on a curb, he became very agitated often, but that became a bit better as time went on. The coroner noted that he had two good sized lesions in the frontal lobe area of his brain. What was not a good mix was the mix of alcohol, prescription drugs and cocaine. Can’t imagine what this alone would do if you already had brain damage. He was also dealing with the issues with Paula and her ongoing custody battle with her ex, and worried about not being able to see Tiger again.
I saw INXS in concert. It was brilliant. Didn't realise there was a documentary so thank you for the review. Feel like Michael Hutchence was a male Amy Winehouse
Was a casual fan until I bought the X CD. Yrs later got the DVD set, I'm Only Looking. It had all 18 videos from 1980 to 1997, concert footage and rare & unreleased videos. Amazing band!
INXS were rated the biggest band in the world for a good while. Hutch and Bono became good mates , and they seemed to morph into each other in how they looked. I have seen INXS 6 times in concert and each show never disappointed. My top 3 are them , The Angels and ACDC.
Loved inxs, Michael Hutchins fascinating I believe Bob Geldof had a bit to do with its as well, Paula Yates is a very complex women as well, both had addictive personalities not a good match at all
This documentary looks amazing. I went on a total Michael Hutchinson INEX binge for about 2/3 months. Watched everything! I was not a big fan, watching them on MTV In the 80's was fun. But now that I am old I find his life with women and Paula very interesting. I too was sexually released from a very sexy boyfriend/ lover when I was I my 20's. I find the same mannerisms in Michael. 👍💖🤔😄
It's probably already been said but he was blindsided with a vicious running punch to the head by a taxi driver he hit his head so hard on the cobbled kirb it knocked him unconscious and bleeding from his ears nose and mouth his girlfriend super model Helena Christensen thought he was dead!! But he'd received massive head trauma resulting in Brain damage.. he was never the same again... R.I.P Hutch 22nd November 1997
Don't know much about him or the band but I'm interested in seeing this, thanks for highlighting it. Can you please react to the Paradise Hills trailer?
He was such a beautiful sexy man I wasn’t a fan of his group liked some of his music and like you Nadia I was fascinated with him and Paula , he seemed to be a lost soul , The movie looks amazing and I will definitely go and see it , thank you both for vloging it ❤️
My husband is a great fan. I think it has nothing to do with the knock on the head. He didn't know what to do with the intensity of his feelings...thats all, really xx
Read a Tim Farris interview and he said Michael was not the same after the head injury. In his words Michael was a methodical person but afterwards he became more disruptive.
Would love to know ur opinion about this flim, I'm not a big fan either but I have seen interviews w his fam who seem lovely, I remember seeing pics of him and kyile in the press on roof tops etc, I'm glad their revisiting him again.
Sad but true anxieties & M.Depressions & hypertension is also known to be genetic & hereditary 3 things that is known to trigger it all tragic impacts & sickness & surrounding death. Causes such traumas even when patience are psychology pushed known as diseases never goes away you never become healed either your live with it rest of your life 💔 I remember depression medications being treated for anxieties like Prozac I was taking Prozac my sister was prescribed Prozac 1990s era it all made me sleep & sleep wake up still feeling depressed or anxious
Seemingly Michael was clowning around in the middle of the road and wouldn’t move. Thats why the taxi driver became irate and hit him. He lost his sense of taste and smell. Which plunged him into depression. He was very elegant and beautiful. Never know how he really died. Paula was convinced it wasn’t suicide. May they rest in peace. 💙💙

Interesting I am a HUGE INXS and Hutchence fan .
I'm.looking forward to this film.
I've followed INXS since 1985
He was incredibly intelligent and sensitive. Xx

INXS were the backdrop to my teens. Still love them. Their music still sends shivers through me. Michael was a god. Timeless. Extraordinary. 🇬🇧
Love inxs music and think he was gourgous

A devastating drama with real people, not a fiction and certainly not forgotten.
I wasn't a massive fan but did like quite a lot of their music. Such a shame that he has been forgotten over the years. I still listen to their music.
Really looking forward to seeing this... Loved Michael such a sexy man & such a tragic story .
Looks amazing such an interesting life story 💜💙

Alice Zecevich in doco Helena tells the story very differently - tragic turn of events ☹️
@@krissij7507 Didn't see the documentary, could you elaborate on what she said? Haven't been able to find it in US.
Becca Pags - just that it had been a quiet night , he had been out getting pizza it was just a sliding door moment 😢

This looks very good , poor Micheal totally lost his way . I think him and Paula were a terrible cocktail! Xx

Never forgotten
Soo sad about Michael Hutchence! Really looking forward to seeing this!
Inxs greater rock band all time R l P Michael rock legend
I believe anyone who is sensitive, can get a sense of why some famous people have ended their life, intentionally or not. Xx
He was beautiful
great singer but sad how he went
Was a casual fan until I bought the X CD. Yrs later got the DVD set, I'm Only Looking. It had all 18 videos from 1980 to 1997, concert footage and rare & unreleased videos. Amazing band!

Can you please react to the Paradise Hills trailer?
He was such a beautiful sexy man I wasn’t a fan of his group liked some of his music and like you Nadia I was fascinated with him and Paula , he seemed to be a lost soul , The movie looks amazing and I will definitely go and see it , thank you both for vloging it ❤️
He w as beautiful
Is there going to be the full review of this????
Such a tragedy. X
This should b good.
My husband is a great fan. I think it has nothing to do with the knock on the head. He didn't know what to do with the intensity of his feelings...thats all, really xx
Yeah, I suspect the knock on the head theory is bollocks too but who knows, hopefully the docu will shed some light.
Considering that head injuries and the loss of 2 out of 5 senses are nothing to scoff at or minimize, I have no idea why you would say this.
Read a Tim Farris interview and he said Michael was not the same after the head injury. In his words Michael was a methodical person but afterwards he became more disruptive.
he was most depressed he wasn't able to smell his baby Tiger Lily
Would love to know ur opinion about this flim, I'm not a big fan either but I have seen interviews w his fam who seem lovely, I remember seeing pics of him and kyile in the press on roof tops etc, I'm glad their revisiting him again.

Hey please watch war teaser new upcoming Bollywood movie

Too sensitive..xx
Research. Not a self’s that’s ...
Seemingly Michael was clowning around in the middle of the road and wouldn’t move. Thats why the taxi driver became irate and hit him. He lost his sense of taste and smell.
