My name is Alex Drake. I've just been shot and that bullet has sent me back to 1981.

Quite a shock, 53 is no age and he will be remembered as one of the defining pop stars and like another that we lost earlier this year (Prince) another creator of the soundtrack to my youth gone - what an unbelievable year for star deaths......

Thank you for this dedicated thread Bollykecks. George Michael deserves that.
I am extremely saddened by this. It is tiresome to say the least that the press are getting mileage out of it and some revering him now he has gone when all the could do when he was alive was abuse him and focus on the bad things.
We should set aside his personal life from the joy and inspiration he brought to millions of people through his undeniable and immense talent.
He will be sadly missed the world over.
Rest in peace George.

An idol from my adolescence this has been a rough year for music
Make it big was my first music purchase with pocket money, me and my class mates were head over heels for him. On cassette too as I didn't have a record player but a prized possession. Wish I still had it. But swopped if for a now that's what I call music.
Rip George Michael

Rip George Michael My old next-door neighbour and friend Paul was his first record producer, he's in bits. I used to see George Michael in our local nightclub, The New Penny. 😢

Very sad news. He was far too young. George Michael was such a talent and worldwide success. Certainly a part of my memories of young days hearing his WHAM hits on the radio.

When Wham rap came out, it was all so new and exciting! My friend Paul said that in all his years of being a record producer, no one touched George Michael's talent. I am still in shock.
