Ten years on
Posted on | November 21, 2007 | 42 Comments
Today they pay tribute to Michael Hutchence on the 10th anniversary of him being too off his nut to just have a normal, non-strangly wank.
Wouldn’t it have been a better tribute to have just started a new band and not replace Hutchence via the ever-respectable medium of reality TV so you could whore all the old songs around for another few years?
Maybe that’s just me.
Let’s face it, nobody is really interested in INXS with an X-Factor lead singer. It was Hutchence that made INXS even vaguely interesting. He was to INXS what Mark King was to Level 42. But once they can tour around and play ‘Need you tonight’ there’ll be enough cunts out there who’d pay for it.
I once saw INXS live in the Point and the only thing I can remember about it is that they played Tom Jones ‘What’s new pussycat’ as they made their entrance on stage.
Also, I once worked on a radio station in the 80s where one of the DJs insisted on pronouncing the band’s name ‘Inks’. I kid you not.

“Michael will always be remembered as a young, vibrant, gifted and passionate person,” wrote drummer John Farris.
i don’t think so.

But Twenty drugs are ok aren’t they? According to your ranting on FMC page yesterday he should be your hero. Hypocrite.

Oh fuck off you tedious mong.

Well it is the truth and radio station my arse. I like the way you resort to name calling in the face of adversity, it suits you.

Daniel O’Donnell wrote a song for Hutchence, and Hutchince panicked and didn’t know what to do, he rang Bob Geldof, Geldof told him if this happened to me I’d hang myself on the back of a door!..you cunt.

What is Nonny’s problem?
November 21st, 2007 @ 6:13 pm
I don’t have one he was just giving me a shit load of abuse yesterday glorifying drug use and today he condemns it. Ironic is all.
November 21st, 2007 @ 6:16 pm
Against drugs? Don’t use them.

I resort to name calling in the face of tedious mongs.
Please, if you can, and I suspect you can’t because you’re a complete loon, show me where I condemned drug use in this post and where I glorified it yesterday.

You’d wanked yourself unconscious after just the intro?
You used to work at RTE1 didn’t you.

“him being too off his nut to just have a normal, non-strangly wank.”
Well that sentance alone would clearly imply you don’t approve of getting high. As for yesterday, lemie see how you equated grass to beer or how you jokingly replied to a comment about how when you are stoned you forget what your talking about. Go on Twenty call me a cunt and tell me to fuck off.

You’re boring, nonny. Go away.

At least one person was glad that Michael Hutchence went the way he did. Greg Norman managed to shake off the tag of biggest Aussie choker at long last….
November 21st, 2007 @ 8:48 pm
OH, I remember the day he died. I was in a cafe in London ( I think it was a saturday morning) and some geezer burst in and told all three tables, ‘Keeerist- old Michael ‘utchence just been found dead!’It united the cafe and we all nattered away merrily speculating on his demise.

personally, I blame that cunt Paula Yates. She up’s and leaves poor Bob with the kids for that Aussie twat. Serves him right for dating that cunt, good riddens.

“You’re boring, nonny. Go away.”
You are right I am. And I will.

Proud Englishman, Christine Keeler and Madam Sin, have done more for English pride than the whole of the English team, their management, and that cringing fucking JEW that sits beside McClaren, how are we doing at Dominios I hear the West Indians are favouites, fuck the pride I’m going to have bet on them, Oh England are even money for pin the tail on the Donkey, nah too riskey.

Does he hang up an elasticated stocking for Santa ?

my you must be ooooold, but still quite sexy ;)
November 22nd, 2007 @ 2:32 am
What is it with all you sad fuckers who think any band from the 80′s or 90′s have any relevance whatsoever these days. If the cunts are dead, hooray! They were fucking shit then, and they’re still shit now.
(Except for The Fall, who trancended all fake genres and poncey vogues)
You should’ve grown out of it by now, and realised the error of your ways. Are you not embarassed?
November 22nd, 2007 @ 2:43 am
I’d be more embarrassed to be caught buying music from the sort of musically retarded bands of the present day.
November 22nd, 2007 @ 3:30 am
Michael Hutchenance’s death was a lot more interesting than his music. To me he’ll always be the singer with “Inks”.

This Blog needs me.
Proud Englishman
November 22nd, 2007 @ 8:05 am
of course it does dear.
November 22nd, 2007 @ 8:28 am
Em…. yes Pitiful Englishman, just like Euro ’08 needs your team.
November 22nd, 2007 @ 8:31 am
haha
November 22nd, 2007 @ 8:41 am
England expects?
November 22nd, 2007 @ 8:43 am
No bottle, no balls,
No guts, no grit,
Just a load of Englshit.
November 22nd, 2007 @ 8:43 am
So now their an 80s band from Australia with a Canadian lead singer? They should really change their name from “INXS” to “nonDscript”.
November 22nd, 2007 @ 9:49 am
“a normal, non-strangly wank”
that made me laugh.
November 22nd, 2007 @ 11:14 am
Good riddance to the curly wigged wank pansy. He once compared himself to Jim Morrison Ohhhh Puhleeze!!!
November 22nd, 2007 @ 1:06 pm
Jim Morrison was also a wank pansy
November 22nd, 2007 @ 1:43 pm
“A wank pansy”? uh huh…I didn’t know they came in that variety?
Frankly it wouldn’t have mattered how he died, it never would have been satisfactorily investigated here anyway.
November 22nd, 2007 @ 9:01 pm
Michael Hutchence was so shit he couldn’t even wank properly. Thats how shit he was.
“i need you tonight…cos i’m no sleepin”
No you’re hangin from the door with your cock in your hand you freak.
November 23rd, 2007 @ 3:52 pm
hahaha they should put that on his gravestone.
November 23rd, 2007 @ 3:59 pm
or perhaps
“here lies Michael Hutchence.
forever rememebered as the singer who killed himself by having a strangly wank
“
November 23rd, 2007 @ 4:21 pm
just having a look through the news about Hutchence there, apparently his brother is trying to dismiss the rumour that Michael killed himself, he prefers the idea that he was a clumsy pervert instead.
and they’re making a film about the “troubled Aussie rock god”. hmmmm. cunts.
November 25th, 2007 @ 2:09 pm
Who the fuck was/is Michael Hutchence?
November 27th, 2007 @ 12:48 pm
he was the lead singer of a long-gone band called INXS , who killed himself trying to have a wank while strangling himself.
He’s quite a hero to some people.
