Only 53. Sad stuff, grew up listening to his music due to my mom being a huge fan.

Stunning!

Luved "Wham"– A staple of the 80's music scene.

In those days you would have thought "Geez there's no stopping this guy (Michael)... He'll be selling records for a long time to come."

But then stuff happened and you barely heard from him unless something odd was happening to/with him.

Sad.

I'm a huge fan of his, both Wham and solo. I listen to him all the time. What a voice. This saddens me. Some of my favorite artists have died on Christmas. Teena Marie, James Brown, Eartha Kitt and now George Michael. RIP George Michael and thanks for sharing your gift. Gone too soon.

Drug addiction always wins...

We was a talent but ultimately lost the battle... outside of Keith Richards... they all lose...

I finally found what I've been looking for. This is one of the best songs he ever wrote and sang. Hauntingly beautiful.

Only 53. There was no cause of death listed at this time. Too young to be gone. Does anyone know what happened to him?

Dean Martin also passed away on a Christmas day.

Regardless of some of the pop fluff he did he did have a great voice. RIP.

Think I might need a Kleenex

Typical smug ,entitled response.

You feel better now?

Man, this one stings. I grew up a fan. Listening to his music... best live voice and the coolest hair on the planet.

Greatest most underappreciated voice in the history of music. Went to one of his concerts. He stood in front of 50k people, no music, no background singers, no computer alteration... just a mic. I have never seen 50,000 jaws drop at one time. He sang "One More Try" a Chapelle and you could have heard a needle drop. It was amazing.

Nothing... he just died in his sleep. They have made it clear, nothing was wrong. His life span was set at 53. That's it.

Only 53. There was no cause of death listed at this time. Too young to be gone. Does anyone know what happened to him?
