I was in tears when my daughter told me GM had died. And I was no fan of his at all.
His passing reminded me of my secondary school days when my best friend was a fan of Wham and I was a fan of A-ha. We used to argue who had the better voice, who was good looking and things like that.
So when he died, I was dumbfounded. Thought daughter misheard. Then I cried. What a talent he was, a generous soul with a huge heart.
Admittedly, my late husband bought me his Listen Without Prejudice album because I loved Praying For Time. Such a great album. Plus his video for Round Here was filmed where I used to live.
I found it heartbreaking that he died alone on Christmas Day.
