    OH used to work for NHS and George did a free concert for them at the Roundhouse about 10 yrs ago, lovely intimate set, a great performer.

    a real bad year.

    Not a fan myself ,  last photos of him he certainaly. Didn't look very heathy bloated and over weight   , just goes to show , money & fame  makes no difference, he has a mega large following so many will be sad  

    In all fairness music,theatre and arts has certainaly taken a big hit this year

    Always sad news when someone so young passes away. Apparently he had a nasty virus in Vienna a few years ago and I wonder if that might have been a contributory factory? Wasn't a particular fan but enjoyed his music. Somewhat ironic that one of his biggest hits was about Christmas!

    Really shocked to hear the news this morning. Loved his music, Praying for time and A different corner are 2 of my favourite songs.

    Another sad loss.

    RIP

    Tragic to die so young. A great performer and advocate for human rights and in Careless Whisper the writer of one of the finest pop songs of all time.

    George Michael RIP
