Ten years after his death, George Michael is still everywhere: the annual success of 'Last Christmas', new covers of his songs, and endless memes across social media. In his unconventional and enthralling Tonight the Music Seems So Loud, Sathnam Sanghera explores the connection between music and politics, exposes what secrecy does to the soul, and reveals how fame erodes the sense of self. More than the careless whispers of a good friend, this is a joyful and poignant celebration of one of Britain's greatest musical artists.
