RIP George, a very talented singer, songwriter and performer.
5 days left of 2016. Princess Leia & HM The Queen must be shitting themselves.
I'm wondering why people are eulogising George Michael. Okay, many are thoughtlessly following the lead of a sympathetic corporate media 'cos he could sing a bit. He was a convicted druggy, convicted road menace and convicted pervert. If those who died prior to 1950s were to be transported to the present day they would likely be amazed at a society so morally corrupted it idolises a narcissistic low-life.

Duplicate link to see if 'links' are working again. They aren't.
Throw the switch again, Mike!

He wasn't all bad.
I'm struggling with some calling him a musical legend mind.
He was certainly guilty of some pretty crude behaviour. Then again nobody is suggesting he was a saint. He also did a lot of good raising money for the NHS and children's charities. Its a shame you can only focus on the worst elements of his life and ignoring all the good stuff.
There's 7.4 billion people in the world and every Sky News and nationwide ITV and BBC news summary I've seen since his death became known has led with his passing. That fact in itself is incredible... that the demise of, let me repeat, one person, is currently the most newsworthy item on the planet. I might understand if he had discovered free energy or a cure for Alzheimer's, but he was some pop singer for crying out loud.
It even knocked the monumentous news that the queen's cold prevented her from attending Christmas Day mass off the breaking news banner.
There is a possibility that the media is experiencing a "slow news day" and his death is giving them the opportunity to fill air time.
Only saying.
This is interesting;
