There is a trick among songwriters which says that if you don't want your kids to work for the rest of their lives, write a hit Christmas carol!
Well, George Michael did just that, as Last Christmas, is still being played worldwide every year every Christmas - so his estate - will continue to receive royalties for as long as the song is played.
The heirs to his estate should thank their lucky stars!
He was also in the Band Aid single 'Do They Know It's Christmas' but I think all proceeds of that song will go to charity.
Coincidental but ironic, he had two big Christmas-themed hits and he died on Christmas day.
