Michael Hutchence

WARNING: this episode includes references to suicide.

Michael Hutchence seemed like the perfect composite front man: the hair, the lips, the moves, the habits. This is the story of how he became that star, but also the man he really was underneath - and why those two parts of him would come together in tragedy.
