Thank you for your music: B-Town pays tribute to George Michael

London, Dec 26 (IANS) George Michael, who gave the music world evergreen tracks like “Last Christmas” and “Careless whisper”, may have left the world but his work will always keep his spirit alive in the heart of his fans, say Indian film celebrities, many of whom grew up listening to the singer-songwriter’s famous tunes.

Michael breathed his last on Sunday — ironically, making it his last Christmas. He was 53, and was found dead on Sunday at his home in Oxfordshire, England.

According to the Grammy Award winner’s manager, the singer had died of heart failure “in bed, lying peacefully”.

Ace Indian musicians like A.R. Rahman, Papon Angaraag, KK, Nikhil Chinapa, Adnan Sami and Bollywood actors and filmmakers like Karan Johar, Richa Chadha, Manoj Bajpayee, Arjun Rampal and Twinkle Khanna reminisced the “Wake me up before you go-go” hitmaker’s influence during the 1980s and 1990s as he was among the pop reigning stars at the time.

Here’s what the celebrities expressed on their social media accounts:

A.R. Rahman: RIP George Michael… Your music will stay with us forever.

Karan Johar: The irony of life. Last Christmas RIP George Michael… Thank you for the music and the memories.

Papon Angaraag: RIP George Michael! Your music will stay with us forever! Thank you so much for all the music you have given us!
