This one came as a big shock to me.
Wham were the sound of my teens, I used to get pissed off that every girl I knew fancied Georgie boy
There are going to be some very upset people today. |

Don't worry, Georgie boy fancied you a lot more than he did those girls.
53 is shockingly young for anyone to pass away. 2016 is really ramping up the sucking in the last two months. |

50 seems to be the magic number these days... sadly. _________________ Sam

It is very sad, he was a good singer, and my appreciation of him probably grew in later years. The trigger point was watching him perform "Somebody to Love" on the Freddie Mercury tribute concert.
IMO only a few singers got close to matching Freddie on the songs, and George was one of them. Rather shockingly, Lisa Stansfield was the other! _________________ Derek Cook - Java Developer

I didn't always enjoy his style of music either but he was undoubtedly a singularly gifted singer. |
