Really sad to come across this old thread about George Michael

[Mintyy2]

Such a short life and what a waste. I still feel sad and get pangs whenever I hear his music. The video of him singing Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me when Elton John joins him on stage is one of my favourite You Tubes ever [heart]. Love him.

Sorry to be maudlin on a Friday night .

Agree re Amy Winehouse, but guess for us 'oldies' George was the soundtrack to our lives a lot longer...
It really is no surprise Amy was so fucked up with a father like Mitch! Did you see the documentary? the bit on the beach when he is practically forcing Amy to go back to do promo when she was happy and healthy and safe where she was.. he didnt give a shit!

What a talent! His own catalogue of songs is spectacular. But his covers of other artists work were truly breathtaking. Not many voices can do justice to a Freddie Mercury vocal.

That cover of The Long And Winding Road has me sobbing rivers of tears every time though. It's beautiful.

I still can’t believe he is gone I get so sad that he is not walking this earth

He really was .Xx
