The legendary George Michael
has sadly passed away. 
A solo artist and also part of the British musical duo called "Wham!".
And he died too young, only 53. 



Not the kind of news you want to hear on Christmas. 
Truly disappointing how many greats have died
in just recent years, 2016 being a big offender.

If there was any song I'd want to play
on Christmas, literally the first thing
I'd think of is "Last Christmas by Wham!"
Rest in peace. 



Here are just a few of his great songs:

"Last Christmas - Wham!" (One of the greatest Christmas songs ever in my opinion)


"Careless Whisper - Wham!" (This one's nostalgic for me.)



Here's something more upbeat:

"Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go - Wham!" 



A really unique and talented person indeed. 
Such a tragic loss.

2016 is ending the way it began.

I get that winter is cold and gloomy but
it just doesn't make sense how many
icons have passed away in such a small space of time.
Where's detective Grumpy when you need him?
Something must be going down.

Carrie Fisher (played a Star Wars princess)
also recently sadly passed away....and then the day after
her mother did! This is both sad and mind bending.

It's tragic, but I think something sinister is causing these deaths.

There's also a weird "rule of three" theory
thing you can look up that's kinda weird.

Do you think some of these icons were poisoned or something?
These days it's not even crazy to say things like that anymore
with all the corruption now visible.

I hope they faked their deaths but I'm not holding my breath....

*Princess Leia.

 Unfortunately it's all mostly drugs... 
Prince, George Michael, Carrie Fischer... all drug big drug users... (not necessarily saying it was all OD, but after doing drugs, even not for that long- like cocaine is really bad for you- it can have serious effects on your body shortening your lifespan) 

(part of me feels like all of that ^^ is gonna be censored but oh well)

But we did lose WAY too many people last year... could have something to do with the rise of drugs, rise in population (did we suddenly have more stars in the 80s (ish) than we had before? (hence more celebrity deaths?) or is it just that we had no idea who they were until now? Everyone used to be not well known by the younger generations, or everyone thought they were already dead (michael jackson for me xD) 

Also, I saw something saying that for the first time since the 70s, human life expectancy has actually gone down?!?!?! (just from one source but I mean still, wowza, that's gotta not be a good sign)

but anyways


(it took me way longer than expected to find that (like half an hour)... only to see it was posted by oli xD wow)


And pssh, X, you missed the best george michael song!!



To me, the other songs are just kinda cheesy novelty songs... But this is a real jam

I just saw it on Facebook, thought it was funny, so I decided to share it.

How very dare you! 

Young one, those are CLASSICS!

I prefer the classics but to be fair,
I haven't heard that many of his songs
.....and I'm biased, because the classics are nostalgic
to me and part of my childhood I guess.

I personally don't really buy the whole
"it's because there's lots of older generation people"
thing, seems like a good cover for what's really going on.

Wouldn't be surprised if narcotics were involved with celebrity
deaths but I suspect it's deeper than that.
But then I'd be going into "maybe they're not really dead" territory.
I'll let others speculate that kinda stuff.
We can hope.
But if that's the case, I hope the why isn't too spooky....
