I think I may have killed George Martin RIP

Very last thing I watched with Mrs Sussex last night before beddy byes was this

And wake to the news that the old boy has departed this morning.

Maybe my Blu Ray player is a sort of death note box

Any suggestions for tonights viewing ?

Oh and RIP George

Actually just realised something even more siniste.

Last 3 films I’ve watched on that same DVD

Extras ( David Bowie)

Love Actuallly ( Alan Rickman)

Star Wars ( Han Solo)

I’ve got a few taped episodes of the US version of The Apprentice.

Can I mail them to your DVD?

Back in 2009, my mum had just got tickets for Michael Jackson at the o2. I was home from uni for summer, and being the nice young man I am offered to drive her to some motown thing at Wembley.

On the way, we were talking about said MJ show. I remark to her “Those gigs are never going to happen Mum”. I drop her off, get home, stick on the news.

BREAKING: Michael Jackson found dead at his home

Couple of years later, I’m at a local bar with some friends (honest, I do have a few!!). Back to Black comes on, and I turn to my friend and say, “It’s such a shame what has happened to her. I really don’t think she’s going to last long”.

Next morning, I wake up hungover as hell. Stick on the news

BREAKING: Amy Winehouse found dead at her home

:lou_sad:

I no-longer talk about celebrities in such fashion.

RIP

Well back on topic…very sad to see one of the most influential figures in popular music culture pass. Not only that, he seemed a jolly decent chap. RIP George.

A controversial opinion but I speak it how I see it.

what’s controversial? Are you saying that most people wouldn’t want him to rest in peace? Have I missed something?

Nope…the bit you missed was my merry quip at the end…didn’t think I’d need to post a :lou_wink_2:

Wasn’t meant as disrespectful at all. Just spooky that we went to bed talking about him and when the radio turned on it was the first name mentioned
