Michael Hutchence
The charismatic lead singer for the Australian rock band INXS, Michael Hutchence led the group to international stardom in the late 1980s and 1990s before his tragic death in 1997. With his smoldering good looks and penchant for heart-rending love songs like "The One Thing" and "Need You Tonight," Hutchence embodied the Byronic rock star image to such an extent that he would play another doomed romantic, Percy Shelley, in 1990's "Frankenstein Unbound." Hutchence struggled with personal and medical issues, and committed suicide in 1997 on the eve of INXS' 20th anniversary tour. His passing, as well as a posthumous solo effort released in 1999, would mean that he would be remembered as one of Australia's most popular musical figures.
