Michael Kelland John Hutchence (22 January 1960 – 22 November 1997) was an Australian singer, songwriter, and actor. He was the co-founder, lead singer, and lyricist of the rock band INXS from 1977 until his death in 1997. The band sold more than 50 million records worldwide and was inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame in 2001.
Hutchence was also a member of the short-lived band Max Q and recorded some solo material, alongside acting in films such as Dogs in Space (1986) and Frankenstein Unbound (1990). He was known for his string of love affairs with actresses, models, and singers, and his private life was often covered in the international press. He had a daughter with English television presenter Paula Yates.
Hutchence died by suicide in a Sydney hotel room on 22 November 1997, at the age of 37.
Early life
Michael Kelland John Hutchence was born in the Crows Nest suburb of Sydney on 22 January 1960,[1][2] the son of make-up artist Patricia Glassop and businessman Kelland Frank "Kell" Hutchence.[3] He had an elder half-sister named Tina.[4] His paternal grandparents were an English couple who had relocated to Sydney in 1922,[5] while his maternal grandfather was an Irish man from County Cork.[6]
Following Kell's business interests, the Hutchence family moved to
Career
Early career
Hutchence, the Farriss brothers, Kerny, Sanders, Beers and Kennelly briefly performed as the Vegetables, singing "We Are the Vegetables".[11] Ten months later, they returned to Sydney and recorded a set of demos.[7] The Farriss Brothers regularly supported hard rockers Midnight Oil on the pub rock circuit, and were renamed as INXS in 1979.[11] Their first performance under the new name was on 1 September at the Oceanview Hotel in Toukley.[7] In May 1980, the group released their first single, "Simple Simon"/"We Are the Vegetables" which was followed by the debut album INXS in October.[9] Their first Top 40 Australian hit on the Kent Music Report Singles Chart, "Just Keep Walking", was released in September 1980.[12] Hutchence became the main spokesman for the band,[9] and co-wrote almost all of the band's songs with Andrew Farriss.[8]
According to Hutchence, most of the songs on the band's second album, Underneath the Colours, were written within a fairly short space of time: "Most bands shudder at the prospect of having 20 years to write their first album and four days to write their second. For us, though, it was good. It left less room for us to go off on all sorts of tangents".
Stardom and acting career
In March 1985, after Hutchence and INXS recorded their album
On 19 May, INXS won seven awards at the 1984
In 1986, Hutchence played Sam, the lead male role, in the Australian film
Late in 1986, before commencing work on a new INXS album and while supposedly taking an eight-month break, the band's management decided to stage the
In 1987, Hutchence provided vocals for Richard Clapton's album Glory Road, which was produced by Jon Farriss.[13]
INXS released Kick in October 1987, and the album provided the band with worldwide popularity. Kick peaked at No. 1 in Australia,[12] No. 3 on the US Billboard 200,[23] No. 9 in UK,[24] and No. 15 in Austria.[25] The band's most successful studio album, Kick has been certified six times platinum by the RIAA and spawned four US top 10 singles ("New Sensation", "Never Tear Us Apart", "Devil Inside" and "Need You Tonight", the last of which reached the top of the US Billboard singles charts).[26][27] According to 1001 Songs: The Great Songs of All Time and the Artists, Stories and Secrets Behind Them, the single "Need You Tonight" is not lyrically complex; it is Hutchence's performance where "he sings in kittenish whisper, gently drawing back with the incredible lust of a tiger hunting in the night" that makes the song "as sexy and funky as any white rock group has ever been".[28] In September 1988, the band swept the MTV Video Music Awards with the video for "Need You Tonight/Mediate" winning in five categories.[29]
In 1989, Hutchence collaborated further with Olsen for the
In 1990, INXS released
Welcome to Wherever You Are was released by INXS in August 1992. It received good critical reviews and went to No. 1 in the UK.[24]
Later career
Hutchence and INXS faced reduced commercial success with Full Moon, Dirty Hearts, especially in the U.S. The band took time off to rest and be with their families, while Hutchence remained in the public eye through his romances.[9][32]
He commenced work on a self-titled solo album in the mid-1990s.[9]
After a period of inactivity and releases that received lukewarm reviews, INXS recorded the band's 10th official album, Elegantly Wasted, in 1996.
Artistry
Hutchence was a baritone.[33][34][35] His vocal range spanned from the bass B1 to the high tenor F#5.[36] In 2013, News.com.au ranked Hutchence fourth in a list of the 15 greatest Australian singers of all time.[37] Billboard described Hutchence as "charismatic", with a "seductive purr and [a] lithe, magnetic stage presence."[38] Paul Donoughue of Australia's ABC, wrote that Hutchence had "a phenomenal voice — moody, sexual, and dynamic, able to shift effortlessly from fragile to cocksure."[39] Reviewing an INXS concert, Dave Simpson of The Guardian wrote, "Watching Hutchence, hair flailing, crotch thrusting, a mischievous smile forever creeping across his leathery face, I realised that here was a man born to be onstage, living and loving every minute, an explosion of sexual energy".[40] Hutchence biographer Toby Creswell asserted that "Hutchence was, without question, one of the truly great frontmen — he expressed the music in a dynamic way that few others could."[41]
Personal life
According to People, Hutchence's "public brawls and onetime open drug use" led London tabloids to dub him the "wild man of rock".[42] He was romantically linked to Australian singer and actress Kylie Minogue,[43] American singer Belinda Carlisle,[44][45] Danish model Helena Christensen,[46] and Australian actress Kym Wilson.[47]
In August 1992, Hutchence and Christensen were riding their bicycles at night in
In the mid-1990s, Hutchence became romantically involved with English television presenter
In September 1996, Yates and Hutchence made headlines when they were arrested for suspicion of
Death
On 22 November 1997, at the age of 37, Hutchence was found dead in his room at the
Earlier that year, Hutchence and INXS had started a world tour to support the April 1997 release of Elegantly Wasted.[9] The final 20th anniversary tour was to occur in Australia in November and December. During the tour, Paula Yates planned to visit Hutchence with their daughter and Yates' three other children, but Bob Geldof had taken legal action to prevent the visit.[61]
Geldof and Yates each gave police statements concerning the phone calls they exchanged with Hutchence on the morning of his death, but did not volunteer their phone records. Yates' statement on 26 November indicated that she had informed Hutchence of the Geldof girls' custody hearing being adjourned until 17 December, which meant that Yates would not be able to bring their daughter and the Geldof girls to Australia for a visit as previously intended. According to Yates, Hutchence "was frightened and couldn't stand a minute more without his baby... [he] was terribly upset and he said 'I don't know how I'll live without seeing Tiger'." She indicated that Hutchence said he was going to call Geldof "to let the girls come to Australia".[59][62]
Geldof's police statements and evidence to the coroner indicated he did receive a call from Hutchence, who was "hectoring and abusive and threatening" during their phone conversation. The occupant in the room next to Hutchence's heard a loud male voice and swearing at about 5:00 am; the coroner was satisfied that this was Hutchence arguing with Geldof.[59][62]
At 9:54 am on 22 November, Hutchence spoke with a former girlfriend, Michèle Bennett. According to Bennett, Hutchence was crying, sounded upset, and told her he needed to see her. Bennett arrived at his hotel room door at about 10:40 am, but there was no response. Hutchence's body was discovered by a hotel maid at 11:50 am. Police reported that Hutchence was found "in a kneeling position facing the door. He had used his snakeskin belt to tie a knot on the automatic door closure at the top of the door, and had strained his head forward into the loop so hard that the buckle had broken."[59]
On 6 February 1998, after an
Memorial
On 27 November 1997, Hutchence's funeral was held at St Andrew's Cathedral in Sydney and was attended by 600 people, including his last partner Paula Yates and their daughter, and also his ex-girlfriends Kylie Minogue and Helena Christensen.[50] The funeral was broadcast live on Australian television.[66] His casket was carried out of the cathedral by members of INXS and by his younger brother, Rhett; "Never Tear Us Apart" was played in the background. Nick Cave, a friend of Hutchence's, performed his 1997 song "Into My Arms" during the funeral and requested that television cameras be switched off.[66] Rhett claimed in his 2004 book, Total XS, that on the previous day at the funeral home, Yates had put a gram of heroin into Michael's pocket.[67]
Hutchence was cremated and his ashes were divided into thirds between his parents, his siblings, Yates and their daughter, following a battle between his family and Yates that started over Hutchence's wish to be cremated.
Later developments
After Hutchence's death, INXS continued recording and performing until 2012. According to the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), INXS has sold 15 million units in the United States alone,[70] making them the second-highest-selling Australian music act in the United States, behind AC/DC.[citation needed] As of 2018, INXS has sold over 50 million records worldwide.[71][72] INXS was inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame in 2001.[73]
Hutchence's solo album, Michael Hutchence, was released in October 1999.[9] He had started on the album in 1995, recording songs in between INXS sessions; he had last worked on it three days before his death. The last song he recorded was "Possibilities".[9] The album includes "Slide Away", a duet with U2's Bono;[74] Bono's vocals were recorded after Hutchence's death.[74]
The 1999 movie Limp includes a
On 18 June 2000, Patricia Glassop and Tina Schorr released their book, Just a Man: The Real Michael Hutchence, which has been described as "an odd biography ... [that] combines the basic facts of Hutchence's early life ... with an almost too-intimate view of the authors' feelings".[77]
Paula Yates died on 17 September 2000 of an accidental heroin overdose; she was discovered in the presence of her and Hutchence's then four-year-old daughter.[78] Soon after Yates' death, Geldof assumed foster custody of their daughter so that she could be brought up with her three older half-sisters, Fifi, Peaches and Pixie.[79] In 2007, their daughter was adopted by Geldof.[80][81][82]
On 20 August 2005, Melbourne's The Age reported on the disposition of Hutchence's estate and assets, which, although estimated at between $10 million and $20 million, amounted to virtually nothing. The remainder of his estate had reportedly been sold off or swallowed in legal fees.[83]
A documentary about Hutchence, Michael Hutchence: The Last Rockstar, aired on Australia's Channel 7 in 2017.[84][85] In 2019, Mystify: Michael Hutchence—another documentary about Hutchence's life directed by Richard Lowenstein—was released.[86]
