Rare Footage! Michael Recording Red Hill
« Michael Hutchence hits #1 all across Europe on iTunes! | Mega Rare ‘Rooms For The Memory’ Test Pressing »
In 1994, Michael Hutchence recorded 'Red Hill' for a tribute album to Japanese duo Chage & Aska titled 'One Voice: The Songs Of Chage & Aska'. Michael re-interpreted the lyrics into English.
The album however wasn't released until 1996 without much promotion outside of Japan, so many Michael Hutchence fans may not be familiar with this track. The song showcases Michael's singing voice in one of his stand out solo recordings!
Here is very rare footage of Michael recording the song. This is the only footage of Michael singing 'Red Hill' that exists!
Wonderful, wonderful song. Sadly I cannot find this song with Michael singing on it in itunes:( Any way of where I can buy this from? the tittle of the album? I'm trying to collect all his music. Thank you. Great page.
Hey Frankie, if you click on the discography in the menu at the top of the page you will find a comprehensive list of all MH's solo releases. 'Red Hill' was on the cd 'One Voice: The Songs Of Chage & Aska' released in 1996. Hope that helps!

I want to say thank you for sharing this video, because "Red hill" is my favorite song in the world, so many memories, so many things…And I always asked myself "How was him in the studio, recording this one?" and always thought about this song…And then, you put this vid on this wonderful site, and my dream is fulffiled. Thank you.
Superb!
Wow, what fantastic footage. I will always remember this song playing over my headphones when I sat on the ground watching Uluru/Ayers Rock in Australia in 1998. The tears were rolling down my face as I was feeling so connected to that beautiful piece of land and so sad about Michael's death at the same time. Thx mate for sharing this with us!
Thank you so much for posting. This is so beautiful, it's so pure the way he sings this song, eyes closed and peacefull, Michael was so heart and soul. And, so universal… Love and Peace, Linda.
Always wonderful to see the boy again at his work, I hope there is more somewhere. It horrifies me that there may be be no more…but here is some more.
