It's not about pedophilia guys. When a woman finds a man that can be ALL she needs because she did not have a true Father figure in her life, this man takes that place in her life. Unfortunately, there are a LOT of people searching for that unconditional love they never had. It's not meant to be "weird", it's meant to be reassuring for her that she can be ALL she can be because he will be everything she needs - emotionally. 💗
It's still creepy. It makes me think of my niece, who was s*xually abused by her stepfather from the ages of 12-14 and then ended up getting pregnant at 17 by a guy 4 years older than her who she described as being like a father figure to her. Although I found the lyrics to this creepy long before that.
I agree. I have never thought the song was weird.
Or he lol
Right on. My friends and I were in our very late teens and none of us thought it was weird.
TRUE
This song is a masterpiece....
-#cheers-- !-
1000% AGREE!
Being a Father figure doesn't have to mean anything sordid.....it can be a man who wants to guide and protect a woman....like a Father.
He ain't singing about a woman lol
@@stopbunsen watch yourself.
I agree, always thought of it that way.
@@stopbunsen Symbolism...
@@acornsucks2111 why?
When George went solo, nobody was expecting this unique sound from him. His debut album was such a departure from the Wham! vibe and that was what made him so fabulous!
George Michael sang Somebody to Love with Queen during a tribute to Freddie Mercury after he died. He did an amazing job. It’s definitely worth a listen.
George's version is AMAZING! He made the song his own and always get the chills when I watch the video!! Freddie was looking down and smiling when he was doing it!
There were a LOT of good performances from that show. This was one of the best. Right up there next to David Bowie and Annie Lennox.
It’s so so good. It was released as part of short LP and as a single, where it even got Queen on the charts in the US. It got tons of airplay during the age of Nirvana. It gave me goosebumps every single time I heard it. ❤️
Agreed but they need to watch Live Aid first
In his documentary Freedom he tells that at that Live-Aid performance he recently found out that his lover also had HIV. So George Michael had to sing about having someone to love, on a tribute to someone who died of HIV-Aids, while having just found out his lover is probably going to die soon.......
Songs like this made total sense in 1987. They were immediate hits.
One of the calling cards of a great songwriter, a talent George Michael possessed in spades, is having the ability to pen lyrics that are nuanced. The song “Father Figure” is a declaration of unconditional love and a promise that I’ll be all you need if you’ll just open your heart to me. The title and lyric ‘father figure’ isn’t meant to be taken literally, it’s a metaphor. “Father Figure” is an absolute classic!
Indeed !!! UHHKAAY !!!
The most beautiful male voice of my generation...rip George. 💙🌺
LOVE this song.....RIP George
Understandable that Jay and Amber were a bit confused by the lyrics but it's too bad. This song and its video are absolutely iconic. Pure artistry.
I really feel that the current generation is not exposed to enough poetry in lyrics. Musicians of the past seemed to possess different writing chops. it just was a different era for song writing. Most of those lyrics are not to be taken literally. There is a meaning behind all of it. George wrote about an all consuming love . Nothing in appropriate. The li ne, "put your tiny hand in mine" is just a woman's delicate smaller hand in a man's. George was a exceptional songwriter. He won several song writing awards and was honored by being the most played artist for 20 years straight on British radio.There's a reason this man has sold over a hundred and twenty million records.
Thank you for saying that
"If you are a desert, I'll be the sea. If you ever hunger, hunger for me. Whatever you ask for, that's what I'll be."! One of my fave lines from ANY song! 💜
Because all I ever wanted... is in your eyes
I Agree
Gotta tell you, I was shocked by your reaction to this.
I LOVE this song. My favorite of all of his songs. Sends me right back to '87. I LOVE this vibe...the melody stands out for me.
absolutely. one of the greatest rock anthems of all time....
I feel the same about this song
I'm not shocked, they're weird, especially the guy on the left that's too cool for slow music.
smh
@@obx300 Yes. LMFAO. He is weird!
obviously these two don't know great music........I agree with you @obx300.........
One More Try and his duet with Elton John (Don’t Let the Sun Go Down on Me) are both amazing examples of his heavenly vocals.
"Don't let the sun go down on me" would be a great song for Jay & Amber to review for sure
Both great! One More Try is hauntingly beautiful, and the live version of Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me is incredibly powerful!
Was going to suggest "don't let the sun" live version
One More Try is my fav GM song
Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is one of his best solo songs ever the over dubbing of his vocals and backing vocals are amazing. RIP George Michael.
He wanted to be her father figure or someone to take care of her! He sang about love can be mistaken as a crime! But he would love her to the end of time! The words have a great deal to say! My favorite!💕
Possibly George Michael's greatest song.
I remember buying this album and listening to it front to back. Not a single bad song. George Michael was an international treasure. He is greatly missed.
YEP. all day every day...and when his videos hit MTV, OMG. WE LOVE AND MISS YOU, GEORGE.
I like faith but for that front to back experience I prefer Listen without Predjudice
He was so good! I saw him with Wham. George Michael had such a beautiful voice. It’s a shame he left this world so young. RIP George Michael
You actually went to see wham😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@ernie1238
Yeah I did! I was 19 & they were the opening band. Problem with that ERNIE??
George Michael is one of the most brilliant singer songwriters ever! The album this song is from was history making!
George was iconic in his time after Wham. They expected him to do bubble gum music. He refused and proved them wrong. Incredible songwriting
100%
❤👏
This man's voice got better with age. Older is a great album.
George Michael one of my favorite singers of all time
George Michael is an R & B artist. He is missed, so talented
Ummm, no. Pop, yes.
George Michael is by far my ALL time favorite vocalist. ❤
You have great taste, I think he's one of music's best singers ever.
I have always loved this song. You have to listen closely to the words to really understand the poetry of the song.
I love George Michael. This year he's finally nominated for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. I hope he finally gets his due. Great song, beautiful person. He is missed. Great song choice y'all!
“Faith” was an absolute masterpiece. The video was based on the film “Taxi Driver”. George was just an astounding talent- and sorely missed.
THAT is such a good point! 'Taxi Driver ' was a film everyone knew back then, but could NOT be made today!
Agree Faith brilliant song
@@leodejongful Agreed. Listen Without Prejudice is his best work by far. I like his other stuff but that is as you say a masterpiece.
they should have just used a lyric video if they were gonna gloss over the artistry of the video itself & just focus on how slow the song is.
@@leodejongful ''Listen Without Prejudice'' have no filler while ''Faith'' and ''Older'' have fillers (''Hand to Mouth'' from ''Faith'' and ''Doesn't Really Matter'' in ''Older'', who i hate the last).
I don’t understand how you could listen to the slower parts of the song and not be transfixed by his voice and flow. He was easily one of the best male vocalists of the last 50 years.
Hearing this makes me miss the 80s even more! Long live the 80s and the people like me who lived it.
I lived it all too
The 80s are well and truly alive with today's new bands. Check out the wonderful Silvertwin and Young Gun Silver Fox for a start
Love the song Kissing a Fool. This entire album is amazing.
Hard to believe you've only done George four times, his is a catalogue you need to dive deeper into! I highly recommend "Monkey", "I Knew You Were Waiting (For Me)" (with Aretha Franklin!!), "One More Try", "A Different Corner", "Praying For Time", "Don't Let the Sun Go Down On Me" (with Elton John!!), "Jesus to a Child", and "Fastlove". Another great artist we lost too early.
I think you all would love love love “I knew you were waiting.” It was on Aretha’s big comeback album and George was such a huge fan of hers that he couldn’t believe she wanted to sing with him. Their energy is so so great in the video, too!!!
Came down here to reccoment Monkey! I also think the beat would better fit Jay's vibe.
All great song suggestions that run the gamut of all George's styles. ❤️
My thoughts exactly. I actually pointed that fact out before this reaction and the response was that his videos get blocked. ???
I will never ever forget his version of I Can't Make You Love me. It still makes me cry.
I've never heard anything as beautiful as him singing "Jesus to a child" at the 1994 Berlin MTV awards. He's simply perfection.
This one simply is a masterpiece of George Michael!
Soooo smooth and intense with a great message and just a very sensitive song!
Love it!!🥰👍
Along with "Kissing a Fool" (an old 40's style jazzy torch song), my favorites from him. Rest in peace🙏🏽
Kissing a fool is a masterpiece
Kissing A Fool is my all time favorite of his!!
"Kissing a Fool" is his greatest work in my opinion. Jay, Amber, please react to this. You won't regret it!
@@ArcaneJawa Different Corner, Jesus to a Child, Mothers Pride, Kissing a Fool, You have Been Loved, so many, sooo many. Hard to choose a favorite. He was such a gifted writer, producer, and vocalist.
Mine Toooo!! 👍🏾
The atmosphere he created with this song...perfection. It is my fav from his solo work, so glad you reacted to it.
This entire album is pure perfection! Hand to Mouth, Hard Day, and Jay will lose his mind with Kissing a fool, the big band sound at the end, and THAT falsetto will haunt and trap you!!!
I consider this one of the top three song he ever wrote. It’s really quite brilliant lyrically.
"One More Try" by George Michael is one of my favorite songs of all time. I hope you can check it out soon.
❤️❤️❤️. I love George Michael not only does he have a gorgeous voice that he's just a beautiful man.
One of Britain's greatest ever singer/songwriters, you must check out Everything she wants, fantastic lyrics, can't believe George is no longer with us, a really genuine kind man, when he died stories came out of the amount of times he gave thousands of pounds away to people who needed help, it had all been kept secret, R.I.P George, your music will always live on.
Yes, "Everything She Wants" is my favorite Wham song. I hope they get to it soon. George was a humble icon. RIP.
He was indeed one of pop music's greatest vocalists ever in my opinion, I really loved his voice.
George Michaels video's made the supermodels into household names.
One of the best from legend George R.I.P 😔
Thank you. George doesn’t get enough love! He’s nominated to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame this year. Hope he gets in!
Just watched your review! LOL! I’m just gonna say it. I wanted George Michael to be my “father figure” after this song came out! 😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣 Didn't we all?! 🤣
Heck yeah!!!!
He should have been in the HOF long ago.
Amber for Female Friday check out Aretha Franklin’s duet with George Michael “I Knew You Were Waiting”. For J looking for an uptempo track, George’s massive hits “Freedom 90”, “Fastlove” or his first big hit as a solo artist “Faith”. He covered Elton John’s track “Don’t Let the Sun Go Down On Me” and Elton was in the live concert video version of the song duetting with George while playing piano. My goodness, you guys are at the beginning of diving into George’s catalog! His collab with Queen on “Somebody to Love” is amazing and “Monkey” is pure 80s dance/pop at its best. I was fortunate to see him in concert twice at Madison Square Garden and the shows were a blend of pop, R&B, soul and dance. Such energy and talent! The crowds were wild for him and after dancing my tush off all night, I was thoroughly spent by the end of those shows!!😅❤😊
You don't understand how obsessed 13-year-old me was with this song 35 years ago. I warped my cassette.
He looked best around 30.
You should see a doctor about that.
Bet I do. Broken home? Couldn't tell anyone close to you? Bullying????
One of his best songs!
Straight guy, here. George was my man crush. LOL
I love this song! No creeps felt here! 🤣
I don't usually care for very many slow songs, but this video was incredibly produced and played massively on MTV, so I actually like it now. Thanks to both of you for your excellent entertainment and reactions. It makes my day almost every day!
Michael's album "Faith" is one of the best albums of the 80's and one of the finest displays of talent ever. I love the songs, "Monkey", the title track and "Kissing A Fool".
Faith was from ‘87.
This was too good to come from the '90's
It could only be made in the '80's
“One more try” and “I want your sex” as well.
I loved Hand to Mouth.
Every song is A++++
You guys both love Elton John - think you'd like Michaels rendition of "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me".
He also performed it WITH Elton
Yeah, great suggestion
The live version of this song with them together is FABULOUS!
Great suggestion!
A beautiful piece of music. So saddened by George's passing.
He's just basically telling her he'll be whatever she needs him to be
I think it's a great song, he's pretty much saying, I love you, I'll be what ever type of a figure you need in your life to make you happy
This was when he grew up into a star in his own right. More a mature sound.
When he says, "the eyes of a child", he means, without the cynicism of an adult who is expecting to be lied to and hurt.
Also, "sometimes love can be mistaken for a crime", you'd have to remember that at this point, he wasn't out as gay, which is still a crime in some places, sadly.
THAT'S CALLED ART WITH EMOTIONS! IT CAN BE WHATEVER THE VIEWER PERCEIVE IT TO BE.
George's "Fastlove' will get you grooving!
Jay would freak out with the video for that one! 😂😂😂
LOVE this song ! I’d like to HIGHLY REQUEST y’all react to his song “One more try.” And one of his biggest, funky hits is called “I want your sex.” 🙂💝💙
R.I.P. George Michael ❤️🙌🏻❤️
I'd love them to hear One More Try also. Crazy good vocals on that one!
I made the same suggestion. That's a great song.
Would be great to see them react to this song but cmon, we all know Jay's gonna hate it cuz it's too slow 😄 He'd like "I want your sex" better
@@hrs2044 And it's so weird because he loves Janis Joplin and Otis Redding who both have so many slow, soulful songs.
I broke up a neighbour’s prayer meeting in their backyard with I Want Your Sex. The people were abusing their dog and te wife was having an affair with her minister my friend and would catch them out front of their house making out in the car.
Being a "Father Figure" means he will be her 'everything' like a father is to his daughter when she is little.
One of my favorite songs. Can’t imagine ANY woman that wouldn’t find this song incredibly sensual/sexy. RIP George. Another great talent gone too soon.
One of my favorite songs by GM.
Uggh...what a song. What a voice. Such an artist. This is a great album. This song is poetry in music.
Miss him.
~Red
Another George Michael masterpiece. What an incredible talent - the UK equivalent of Prince. Great song writer, played all the instruments and boy, what a voice. Taken from us far too early
I LOVE this song. I remember listening to this on repeat when it came out. His Faith album was a favorite.
This is my favorite George Michael song, and it's not even close.
George Michael and Aretha Franklin have a duet together "I knew you were waiting (for me)" you should react to
My absolute favorite George Michael song. Very deep, love the Egyptian nuance.
So many other brilliant songs but Kissing a Fool and Outside are two of my faves GM songs. George is still in my Top 3 of favorite concerts of all time. RIP, George. ❤️
George is one of the best. You can't go wrong with songs from his Faith album. It won many awards in including the AMA R&B album of the year.Also, he did several duets with strong female voices, Aretha, Mary J and Whitney!
This song😢😂 I had moved across country to be with my bf then he went off the rails, so here I was in a strange state & knew no one... he comes to the diner I worked at to win me back, flowers & a card and said HE wrote this for me... even changed blue eyes to green🤣 I was so emotional & bowled over by the LYRICS, I took him back hahaa
When this song hit the airwaves, I gave him grief relentlessly, but hey, it was sweet at the time!😉❤✌
Edit: I see a lot of people got the creeps from this song's lyrics lol I never took it that way, but then again, he did NOT include "I'll be your daddy" in the written note🤭✌
George Michael was a SUPER talent! Incredibly gifted singer, musician & performer. He & Wham were part of my childhood songbook. He was phenomenal live but regrettably I never saw him perform 😕✌️You should check him out doing a live performance of "Killer/Papa Was a Rolling Stone"...
He made the stubble very popular among men back in the 80's.
Such a fantastic song.
You guys are hilarious. This was such a great album. It stamped his departure from Wham and made him a huge star. Kinda Justin Timberlake-ish. He has a fantastic voice.
"One More Try" was another song in this vein that was a hit. Amber will love and Jay will hate, lol!
You have to listen and understand the lyrics of George Michael songs to appreciate the "poetry". And then there are the beautiful melodies....
This is such a beautiful and heartouching song ❤😍
I think it's the best song he ever had done
Beautiful song! Love it!
George Michael was so talented. He had a lot of great songs, which many have been mentioned here in the comments. I think you two would love his version of “I can’t make you love me” You two have reacted to Bonnie Raitt’s version but George brings something special to the song. Please check it out!
No matter what musical genre each of us prefers (mine is Heavy Rock) here in the UK we all loved George Michael.
You don’t do enough George Michael. His last album - Patience - was priceless. Listen to Precious Box - probably my favourite song of his. It’s a long track but is an extremely poignant and haunting story of isolation, loneliness and shallow and rampant excess. This is one of George’s most up tempo and danceable tracks but that belies the song’s darkness and melancholy. It’s very frothy but deep. It’s very 2000s, with its house and electronic vibe. John and Elvis are Dead is a wonderful tribute track, along with Amazing.
George is one of those artists that the lyrics are everything. Especially the ones he wrote. If there's not an interest in deep diving into a song, I'm not sure it'll be appreciated.
George Michael and Aretha Franklin, I Knew You Were Waiting.
You’ll love it!!❤
Father Figure is one of the first songs I heard from George Michael maybe a decade ago. It's such a unique song and he hooks you the minute you hear the music and his voice. I did a deeper dive on George Michael after hearing this and have been a huge fan ever since.
George is up for public nomination to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame this year. A great voice and undeniable talent who deserves to be there with the other greats. You can vote for him at the Hall of Fame Web page.
This is George’s BEST SONG of All Time.
Great choice.
The depth the producer went to for this song is immense. The selection of instruments with the choir is an absolute masterpiece.
Next up…
ONE MORE TRY.
Another really good song
It's great, my vote goes to careless whisper.
@@jamesway they've reacted to Careless Whisper and loved it. Check it out.
@@jamesway Careless Whisper is a Wham song. This is George Michael solo…and Father Figure is his absolute best.
@@GNXXRAY Ah, yeah. Gee Thanks for the update.
One More Try runs rings around Father Figure. George's voice is so much more powerful and haunting in that song.
Been waiting so long for you to get to the great George Michael With this song. FINALLY.
George was such a powerhouse. Beautiful vocals.❤
My absolute favorite GM song. Moody, vibey, dark. Just love the whole thing and the video is really well made and tells a disturbing story.
Love the vibe of this song and the music
There was a time when we had singers with looks and talent. They could honestly sing very very well.
These folks didn’t have to be half naked or talk about their sex lives to sell records.
George Michael was one of these folks. This song is over 35 years old and still sounds fantastic and downright timeless.
He's an amazing talent, but he did write I Want Your Sex, Freeek, and other highly sexual songs both as part of Wham! and as a solo artist. Indeed, I Want Your Sex was banned by radio stations and the BBC. MTV would only play it after Prime Time. In the 80s and 90s, we were highly amused by it. The man is a great artist.
Although he did sing "I Want Your Sex" lol
@@kitskivich LOL. Don’t get me wrong he wrote some really sexual songs. But he was never telling all of his sexual business like folks are today.
Even after it came out that he was gay, dude still kept his personal life personal.
After he passed away, I remember hearing many people came forward to talk about all of the private acts of charity and kindness he had performed over the years. He did the right things for folks because it was the right thing to do.
That’s what I what I was saying. Nowadays we find out far too much about celebrities outside of their area of talent.
He wrote a hit song after being arrested for reasons in a mens toilet, so yes he did make use of his sex life to sell a record.
Although it more to exploit the publicity of the arrest than boast about what happened.
What do you think he would write about today? Trash, just like then.
George mochael = heavy weight pop music. A class on his own. We are on the top. All his song should be known.
What a wonderful voice and a great man! He definitely was a loss to the world and he could write and sing amazingly.
I think the inspiration could have been the many woman that have real "daddy issues".
Gone far too soon. He had such an amazing voice.
This actually one of my favorites of George Michael
I'm with Angela below...if you grew up without a caring father...this song wrings your heart out.
One his his best and most atmospheric songs, along with ‘Jesus to a child’. The lyrics have depth and can be misinterpreted. The Gospel influenced chorus is genius. There was always much more to George than the simple singalong pop compositions of Wham. R.I.P ❤❤
Another great George Michael solo song is 'Too Funky' :)
For me this is George Michael at his best, PERIOD
George has a great voice, give One More Try a whirl
