Michael Huchence would have been 50 years old today

INXS and the Talking Heads were my favorite 80's bands.
I blame Bob Geldorf for his suicide.
RIP Michael.

one of the great frontmen / lead singers of the last 30 years.

great band...

very underrated in my opinion.

if he was around , they'd still be getting it done....

Saw them in Union Square in NYC when INXS was just kicking off their 20 year world tour, two months later he hung himself to death, cried like a baby all night.

And yeah, one of the greatest frontmen in rock history.

You cried like a baby? Wow. Must have been connected on some different level with this dude. A dude you never met but through his music.

I'll make sure I put the pop classic "Need you tonight" right next to "True" by Spandau Ballet on my IPOD.
