London
(AFP) - British pop star George Michael, who rose to fame with the band Wham!
and sold more than 100 million albums in his career, has died aged 53, his
publicist said.
"It is
with great sadness that we can confirm our beloved son, brother and friend
George passed away peacefully at home over the Christmas period," the
publicist said in a statement.
Thames
Valley Police said the ambulance service had attended a property in Goring in
Oxfordshire, where the singer lived, at 1342 GMT on Sunday and a 53-year-old
man was confirmed dead at the scene.
"At
this stage the death is being treated as unexplained but not suspicious. A
post-mortem will be undertaken in due course," the police said.
Billboard
magazine quoted Michael's manager Michael Lippman as saying the singer had died
of heart failure.
Singer
Elton John published a picture of himself with Michael on his Instagram
account.
"I am
in deep shock. I have lost a beloved friend - the kindest, most generous soul
and a brilliant artist," the British star wrote.
Madonna
posted a video of herself presenting Michael with an award and wrote:
"Farewell my Friend! Another Great Artist leaves us."
Michael was
due to release a documentary in 2017 after a period of living as a virtual
recluse in which he hit the headlines for a series of bizarre incidents linked
to drugs.
Earlier
this month it was also announced that producer and songwriter Naughty Boy,
whose real name is Shahid Khan, was working with Michael on a new album for
next year.
Michael was
best known for his 1980s hits "Last Christmas", "Freedom",
"Careless Whisper" and "Wake Me Up Before You Go Go" but
his career spanned more than three decades.
He won a
string of awards including two Grammies and three Brits.
His last
album "Symphonica" (2014) rose to number one in the charts.

'Talented soul'
Many
tributes to Michael referred to other music world deaths in 2016, starting with
David Bowie in January and including Status Quo guitarist Rick Parfitt who died
on Saturday.
"2016
- loss of another talented soul. All our love and sympathy to George Michael's
family," the band Duran Duran, which were 1980s contemporaries of Wham!,
said on their official Twitter account.
Referring
to him by his nickname "Yog" (Yours Only George), Wham! co-star
Andrew Ridgeley said he was "heartbroken" by Michael's death.
Canadian
musician Bryan Adams tweeted: "I can't believe it. Such an incredible
singer and a lovely human being, far too young to leave us."
Tributes
poured in from outside the music world too.
Football
presenter and former England captain Gary Lineker tweeted: "No, not George
Michael as well. Another musical great leaves us this year. 2016 can just sod
off."
"Star
Trek" actor George Takei referred to some of Michael's greatest hits in a
tweet, writing: "Rest with the glittering stars, George Michael. You've
found your Freedom, your Faith. It was your Last Christmas, and we shall miss
you."

Drug
charges, health scares
Michael was
born Georgios Kyriacos Panayiotou to a Greek Cypriot father and English mother
in north London in 1963.
He met
Ridgeley at high school and the pair went on to form Wham! in 1981.
With their
good looks, perma-tans, highlighted hair and hedonistic image, the duo captured
the go-getting spirit of the age and fast became one of Britain's biggest pop
acts.
In 1985,
Wham! became the first Western pop band to perform in China as the country was
slowly beginning to open up to the outside world under reformist leader Deng
Xiaoping.
Following
years of speculation over his sexuality, Michael came out as gay in 1998 after
being arrested for committing a lewd act in the public toilet of a Los Angeles
park.
It was the
first of several incidents that were to overshadow his musical career in his
later years.
He notched
up police cautions for cannabis and crack cocaine possession and in 2010 was
sentenced to eight weeks in jail after crashing his car into a London shop
while under the influence of cannabis and prescription medication.
In 2011, he
spent several weeks in hospital in Vienna after contracting pneumonia, later
saying that he had been close to death.
There were
fresh concerns in 2013 when he had to be airlifted to hospital after falling
out of his chauffeur-driven Range Rover as it travelled at high speed on a
motorway.

“… Gender Switching
Old souls, let me tell you something. If you are old enough, and many of you are, you have been everything. Do you hear me? All of you. You have been both genders. All of you have been what I will call between genders, and that means that all of you have had gender switches. Do you know what happens when it's time for you to switch a gender? We have discussed it before. You'll have dozens of lifetimes as the same gender. You're used to it. It's comfortable. You cannot conceive of being anything else, yet now it's time to change. It takes approximately three lifetimes for you to get used to it, and in those three lifetimes, you will have what I call "gender confusion."
It isn't confusion at all. It's absolutely normal, yet society often will see it as abnormal. I'm sitting here telling you you've all been through it. All of you. That's what old souls do. It's part of the system. …”

"THE THREE WINDS" – Feb 23-24, 2013 (Kryon Channelling by Lee Carroll) (Subjects: Humanity, Home - other side of the veil, Wind of Birth - Birth, Wind of Existence - Life, Wind of Transition - Death)
“… The Human Spiritual System
The puzzle during your life is about how much of this truth of being part of the creator you can accept. How far can you open the quantum door to see this truth when you are alive? This single attribute determines how enlightened you become during life. Listen: It's not how much knowledge and experience in is your Akash, but how much you allow yourself to believe it. There are many old souls on this planet who have an amazing amount of spiritual learning, yet they don't want to touch that "spiritual jar" within them at this point in their lives. This is the free choice of the Human Being we speak about.
There is immense planning that puts you at the Wind of Birth. What did you accomplish during the last lives, if anything? Who were you and what did you do? What energies did you start that were not complete that you wish to continue? What soul group were you in? Who were your parents? Are you in certain soul agreements to become their grandchildren? That is more common than you think! There are so many things that go into the planning of the "entry energy" of your life, and each life potential is different and unique. The planning is done by you when you have "the mind of God" on my side of the veil.
Humans don't like the fact that there is no generic spiritual instruction manual that states, "Here is what happens and here is what to do." Listen, dear ones, humanity is honored way above that! Are all your children the same? Do books on how to raise children always work for your child? The answer is no, because each soul is totally unique. But Humans still wish to have a list of things to do and not to do, as though each soul somehow came out of a spiritual machine that made them all the same. No. Instead, Spirit honors each soul with unique choice and a tremendous variety of energy selections.
The Great Artists
There are certain attributes that Humans receive on the planet, and we'll call them creative attributes. These are almost quantum attributes that may take several lifetimes to complete. What often happens to these creatives is that they go through a series of lifetimes as though it were one in order to have completion of their creative cycle. Famous artists will come back, and the first thing they want to do is pick up a brush and continue what they did before. Famous composers, famous poets and sculptors will come back and simply keep going! It's so obvious, yet you deny this in your scientific way.
So the creatives are different from the others, and their puzzle is to bring the planet the greatest treasures of art through a unified series of lives, yet personally they try to sort out the puzzle of "what they carry inside is valuable, but nobody knows it". If you've noticed, most of the great artists who have even lived and are here today carry a burden that is easily identified as "lack of self-worth". Do you see the set-up? It's ripe for personal discovery, isn't it? So can you see the Human standing in the Wind of Birth, ready to continue what they only began last time? With the "mind of God", there is a smile on their face as they hear the music that they will compose, for it's with them when they arrive.
As you stand at the Wind of Birth, you are completely and totally a unique creature with incomplete energies. It takes more than one short earthly life to create Human attributes that grow into maturity. Even non-creatives (most of you) have a lineage of starting something that never got fully completed. Sometimes it's within relationships. Sometimes it's learning or teachings. Old souls are good at this coming and going and often pick up where they leave off as they slowly change the planet by their very presence upon it. The old soul is, "Sewing the seeds of light on the carpet of linear time, not even knowing that he will also be harvesting those exact mature plants of wisdom as he returns in a subsequent life."
Therefore, dear one, you don't arrive with a blank slate, but you have to know that, don't you? The old soul feels it. The only ones who arrive with a completely blank slate are the newbies [first timers] and we'll talk about that in the next wind. But this is a room of old souls who are hearing and reading right now. Each of you is here with a spiritual jar that is filled with the experience of living on Earth, and sometimes even the attribute of "awakening to your own mastery". ….”
10 Amazing Things Kids Have Said About Past Lives
"Common Questions from Non-Lightworkers" - Feb 2012 (Kryon Channelling by Lee Carroll)
"..... DNA is a Dynamic Molecule, not a static one.
"Common Questions from Non-Lightworkers" - Feb 2012 (Kryon Channelling by Lee Carroll)
"... Question Three: Is there life on other planets?
... I will tell you, as long as you stay in 3D, you'll still be getting in little metal cans and air suits and going to planets. As soon as you begin the quantum age, however, you will simply wish yourself there, because you will be entangled with everything and can go with intent. If you don't believe this now, you will later, for what I give you is true. It may be lifetimes and lifetimes from now, but the group that is before me is the group that is going to come back over and over. The difference is that you're done coming back in an old energy. This is a new energy..
When you come back, dear one, everything you know will be in your DNA and be on top [available]. You're not going to have to go through what you did before. As soon as you decide to look around and open the door [metaphor for free choice to awaken], everything you've learned this time around will be right there.
This is the attribute of what you would call "a child of new consciousness," which you have labeled with a color - indigo. The child remembers who they are. They are conceptual, and you believe they have to be taught from scratch! Hardly! They remember! Do you understand what is taking place? We told you this last time, but we want to review something with you: The animal on the prairie drops its calf and within hours, the calf is up, running with the herd. Did you know that the calf instantly knows who its enemies are, what water to drink that doesn't smell right, and what berries to eat that are not poison? Where did that come from? How did that infant animal know these things? The answer is that this information was biologically inherited. You call it instinct. But when you have a Human baby - nothing! It doesn't know anything but that it's hungry. It requires 20 years of teaching! Aren't you tired of that? Did you ever think about why the animals have so much knowledge to begin with and you have so little? Does that seem correct for the top of the evolutionary ladder? It's time for that to change.
You're starting to see it, even with the indigos. They come in knowing. That's why they're so impatient. You're trying to teach them things they already know instinctively. Just like the calf on the prairie, they come in knowing. Some of them try to teach you. That doesn't always go well. That was question three...."

"..... DNA - A Quantum Force
Now we get to the core truth, don't we? So I will tell you. The ninety percent of DNA which is quantum, is filled with information, both esoteric and timeless. It is a quantum blueprint for everything you are and have been since you arrived on the planet the first time. DNA contains instruction sets for your life; everything from your full Akashic Record - every single lifetime you have had - to the benevolent creator's fingerprint within the seeds of creation itself. Every single talent you ever had is there, even if you don't have any of those today... the record is there. Every predisposition of weakness and strength are there. Biologically, every single instruction to every single stem cell is there. . ..."
"..... DNA is a Dynamic Molecule, not a static one.
Humanity is stuck in the 3D portion of their biological thinking. In your 3-D life, you simply accept the chemistry you're given. You act as though the three percent gene producing part is all there is. You believe it is a chemical protocol that is unchangeable and simply "you." You don't see it for the way it's designed. It's dynamic and always has been. It's not set, but will continue to simply repeat what it does unless there is another quantum influence on it.
Therefore you live with the 3 percent as though it were all there is, and since it just "came with your body" and seems to control everything, you never talk to it. Many of you come in with pre-dispositions based upon the karma which is put upon you from your past lives. You don't come in clean [without karmic energy]. Instead, you arrive with pre-dispositions, fears and phobias. Some are positive. Perhaps you come in as a prodigy continuing your last life... the 8-year-old who can paint like a master and do brushstrokes that take 30 years to develop. What does that tell you about what must be in the DNA?
Perhaps you come in as the composer, the pianist, the prodigy, the violinist, just waiting until your hands can go on the fingerboard or can reach up and fret the notes. Perhaps you come in knowing how to play the piano, just waiting for your hands to get big enough to do what you used to do... without any lessons. How do you explain that, dear ones? The answer is that all this is contained in the dynamic quantum instruction sets of your DNA... the part you never talk to it. .."
