Dear George Michael Lovelies,
Today is George Michael’s birthday. It would have been his 61st birthday if he had been alive.
As most of you know, I recently posted my happiest and saddest moments for the 27 years that Yours Only George has been online. Obviously, the saddest moment was learning that George Michael would no longer be with us to share his smart and humorous personality, nor his gift for writing and singing songs that defined a generation.
I still believe that there is a need for this site, and I have been trying to keep everyone updated on what I find online about George Michael. Until 2024, it had been quite some time since I posted news on the site, and for that I apologize. I have always continued to post on Facebook and X. Fortunately, I now can update the site daily.
Many things have changed over 27 years, and I am trying to go page by page to determine what is broken and needs to be fixed on the site. Some of the Amazon sponsorship links weren’t working, but I think those are fixed. I have at least 15 things that need to be fixed or added. Even some of the things that should be easy to fix have not been easy to fix! I am trying, and I ask you to have faith in me that I can get the site back up and running.
At this point, I have updated the following pages or sections:
- News – I have started regularly adding news.
- Links – I have checked every link on the the links page. If you have a site that you would like added, please let me know.
- Posters – I have also updated the posters page with new posters.
- FAQ – Sadly, this part talked about e-mailing George, and that had to be removed.
I have also started a feature called “On this day” on Facebook and X, pointing to things that have happened to George Michael through the years. I have forgotten about so many of these things, and it’s so fun to read about them again. Usually, these pages are also updated, which helps me keep things more up to date.
For those of you who were on the mailing list through Feedburner/Google, I have moved the mailing list to Follow.it. You should have received a message asking you to confirm that would you like to continue receiving e-mails. If you’re new to the site, you can subscribe here.
For those of you still reading, I’d like to know on which social media sites you would like me to start posting information.
Please consider sharing information about the site, as it helps me pay the bills and keep the site open.
Thanks for your support over the last 27 years!
I hope you all find a special way to celebrate George Michael’s birthday and life today!
