OBIT: George Michael
« on: December 25, 2016, 06:06:16 PM »
British singer George Michael (from Wham, also had a successful solo career) has died at 53.

I hadn't really thought about this before, but the reality of death means that every day there are less people in the world than the day before.  In reality there are many more people in the world than this but for illustration: If one day there are 1000 people in the world and the next day 55 people die, now there are 945 people in the world. if 30 more die the next day now there are 915 people in the world. So we'll eventually become extinct as will all creatures as the same reality applies to dogs, cats, horses etc.

Tough year for celebrities; even tougher for musicians.  My family and I were just talking about the greatest of George & WHAM! (during a session where I had his holiday hit from Edge Of Heaven on repeat over the weekend).  Just another star from my younger days; RIP, George.
