George Michael, one of the most iconic sex symbols of the 1980s and 90s, passed away Sunday at age 53.

In Music News, Jay Gabler says musicians around the world are remembering the late George Michael as a trailblazing pop star: Elton John called Michael "the kindest, most generous soul and a brilliant artist." Paul McCartney wrote that "George Michael's sweet soul music will live on even after his sudden death." Madonna called Michael a "great artist," and Brian Wilson remembered him as "a very talented musician."
