    Met him once in a cafe with a mate of mine. Coffee cup on hampstead high street around 1989-90.
    Talked for 20 mins until some fans spotted him. He excused himself and watched him jog off down the high street. He was very polite and seemed genuine. And no, there was no funny business before the warriors start typing. Just a nice person who had a god given gift .

We've needed to hear new and brilliant compositions he would have created. The world became an emptier and colder place without you, George but I thank God for blessing us with your presence.
      What I've written here must sound silly but it's the way I feel. We've lost so much from so many. I will always be grateful for you, George! Rest in eternal peace 🕊️. ❤️💔🎶😢🙏

But, to be able to put a song together in your head b4 it's even put to music. I might know tones & sounds but he the sweet Angel could hear the music from the God's. That's why God took him home. Now he's making his joy in Heaven. I envy him. He's at peace now. But, oh how the world suffers from not hearing his sweet voice. The man didn't know how important he was.

      I forgot their names but there are in fact two people who "write" the "songs" nowadays. They offer these songs to the "artists" who like them. Then the music industry pumps in some millions so everywhere you go you hear those songs. They literally (!) killed Grunge and after 2010 it was done with artistic freedom. Maybe the industry lost too much to P2P networks. But ehm... music is for everybody. You can still find good music but you have to search a little harder. There are enough independent labels. I hope this is an indication that we are living in changing times and that hypnotizing kidz with boom-boom-boom tunes and stupid video clips is the last silly attempt of a dying dirty industry. Music is not a mass product like canned food. And imo that has to change as well. But that's a different subject (connected though). Happy searching.

He had no need to do what the managers wanted to do because he was a real artist and a musician.

    Sometimes you hear a song like this one but you really don't pay much attention to it. But when you hear it a few more times it gets to yah. The music goes in different directions. You hear George soft voice singing but you hear different instruments playing in the background. Some strings other are brass. But he brings the sounds altogether and it blends beautifully. I hear another masterpiece that was created but all that hard work and didn't get much recognition for it. God will bless him for his efforts that he has done and he will reward him for it. All music comes from the Creator anyway. Satan just gets in some music and distorts it.

If you are one of those intolerant human beïngs, this song must be very confronting and will be like a mirror showing your true colours. Fot those of us that are tolerant and open minded this feels like a masterpeace which it realy is.
