Rest In Peace, George Michael

I don't exactly listen to a lot of George Michael, but I really, really, really, really like his version of Elton John's Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me.

Literally just a few days ago I was playing this on repeat. My housemates and I back in the university used to play "Careless Whisper" when we were just mucking about, crowning it as our house anthem. Interesting how powerful music can be. 

Excuse me while I go and play this a few more times to distract myself.

It's depressing to know that there are some musical performances that I will never be able to experience. Off the top of my head ...

• Phantom of the Opera, 50th anniversary with Ramin Karimloo as the Phantom
• Snow.Wolf.Lake (雪狼湖), a musical by Jacky Cheung that isn't even caught on tape ...
• OneRepublic's concert back in the Dreaming Out Loud era
• Elton John in the 90's
• The performance above ...

Sigh
