She will be missed.

I didn't realise that's who she was. Hadn't put the comedian together with the woman holding the sign.

There's that great story of him freaking out at MJ while making Thriller....

To be at the bleeding edge of popular music for such a long time, what a legacy. RIP QJ 🙏

The documentary about him was utterly inspirational.

An utter musical giant.

Highlight of today's telly was the news playing the clip of Q on stage while Ai No Corrida was being being performed WHILST OFF HIS FUCKING TITS and he's just jumping around like a loon

It's just fantastic, OG Bez vibes
