I was listening to Symphonica on Xmas Eve and posted this in the what are you listening to thread. He died 24 hrs later, weird coincidence because I hadn't listened to George Michael for years.

Very sad indeed. Great songwriter and another superb talent no longer with us. Prefer to remember him for his musical ability and his Careless Whisper hair do which I tried to copy but could not quite pull it off.
Here is a list of things that people posted before me about George Micheal on this thread
So people had already mentioned his lifestyle before me and someone had mentioned his drug abuse etc before - yet im the one that get the flak ? or maybe people only react when i say it. Surely not
Post #64.... I didn't quote you in my first post about propriety. It was out there for anyone who chose to take it onboard. You quoted me thus personalising it, and to which I'm entitled to reply. You got my "low" opinion.
The "speak no ill of the dead" has been the accepted norm for over 2000 years, sadly in decline.

There`s been quite a last minute stampede for the exit door in the last few days hasn`t there?:thup:
Looks like there was some new music on the way from George Michael. I hope they manage to find a way to get it out there at some point

I would have hoped that all here would have understood that an individual's addictions are not things they should be critisised for - but things they should be helped to overcome and congratulated about when and admitting them and accepting that they are a problem. This is especially the case when the individual is open about them, and realises the importance of not glorifying them.
For my wife what she loved about George Michael beyond his music, looks and coolness - was his openness and honesty - his authenticity. Because of that authenticity she felt she connected with him to the extent that she felt she did actually know him - even although she didn't. And that's why his passing has left a big hole in her life and has caused her quite an upset.

Apparently he'd been working on an album for the last decade, will be interesting to know if it will still be released.
The music I posted from above is from the new album which had apparently been completed bar final mixing. It seems a common occurrence to release material from deceased artists so hopefully this will come out

Mrs R met George a few times, her best mate is George's God daughter (elton john is her other god parent!) nice guy by all accounts, loved his friends and family and i secretly like some of his music! 2016 has been a weird old year, but suppose a lot of artists from a certain era all hitting an age where they are more susceptible to illness etc.
