    Freedom '90 is a great George Michael song, in part because it's kind of his response to his explosion in popularity after this song, and his image, and his label trying to control him.

      I always loved Father Figure too, but namely for the story that went with it for me. I dumped my insane bf & one night he brought me flowers & a card with the lyrics, claiming he wrote it for me (even changed the "blue eyes" line to green for me🙄lol) I was so speechless & amazed by his passionate words, I took him back... briefly hahaa
      The day the song hit the radio, my friends & I would give him SOOOO much grief!🤣😂 Hey, did you know Rich WROTE this?🤣

    The song playing on the jukebox at the beginning was "I Want Your Sex", also by George. You might like that one, too. Also, like everyone is mentioning, "Freedom '90" has a good beat and a strong message about George breaking away from the record studio he was tied to.

      And the organ tune is from Wham's "Freedom" (1984) which usually gets overlooked by George's solo hit "Freedom '90". But the Wham! song, though totally different, is a great pop record too and was a huge hit in its day. :)

    George was not only supremely talented, but a lovely - truly _lovely_ man. It was only after his untimely death a few years ago (on Christmas Day - he died alone 😔) that countless stories emerged of people -ordinary people - that he'd done immensely kind and generous things for. All with no fanfare or public knowledge. We lost an absolute peach of a man when we lost George Michael. 🖤

    I was never really a fan of George or Wham (I'm definitely more of an old rocker) but through a long boring story I ended up spending an hour or so chatting to George and, his friend Sir Elton backstage at a Billy Idol gig. Genuinely, you couldn't hope to ever meet a nicer, more humble, generous, funnier, true gentleman than George. Incidentally, Elton was great too, not so humble and not so down to earth but still a lovely bloke. The one thing you got wrong was neither George or Elton were 'ladies men', in fact quite the opposite. I was so sad the day we lost George, we lost a special soul that day. RIP Yog

    The entire Faith album was written, arranged and produced by George. Flawless from beginning to end, this showed off so many different styles of his music from upbeat funk and dance pop (I Want Your Sex Parts 1&2, Faith, Monkey) to emotional ballads (One More Try) to lite jazz (Kissing a Fool, A Last Request) and everything in between (Father Figure). One of the first albums to spin off an unbelievable SIX singles, that's how good quality they were (and still are).
    My first introduction to George was Wake Me Up Before You Go Go with Wham! but Faith put him on a whole other level in my book.

    I absolutely loved George Michael when I was in HS and college. Such a fantastic rich voice, and his songs had many different sounds, from straigh-up bubble-gum pop like "Wake Me Up Before you Go-Go" to sweet, airy, jazzy ballads like "Kissing a Fool," to darker fare like "Father Figure," George knew how to write and perform hits. And don't miss his duets with Elton John and Aretha Franklin! He was fantastic and the world lost him way too soon.

    George Michael's live version of Queen's 'Somebody to Love' is truly outstanding - I never realised how good his voice was until I saw him perform that at the Freddy Mercury Tribute concert (the rehearsal on TH-cam is also great viewing, with David Bowie and Seal watching on in awe as well!). Also, as others have mentioned below, his live duet with Elton John singing Elton's song, 'Don't Let the Sun go Down' is a wonderful performance.

      @@carolynsaint6263 Yes, I remember it vividly, December 25, 2016. Why? For me that song became reality. I was driving to my girlfriend's house. I turned on the radio to hear the sad news. This song played. I went to give her a diamond necklace I bought. I went to the door and to my surprise was greeted by 2 adorable little children and her father. We briefly spoke as I waited. My girlfriend soon emerged. Instead of her beautiful smile, I saw a face of shock and embarrassment! We took a walk. I now found myself heartbroken, disgusted, and angry. Heartbroken because my feelings were genuine and I was lied to. Disgusted that a woman of 47 didn't have enough love and pride to mention she had to beautiful children. Angry because to me Christmas is a holiday of love for family, friends, and community, but most of all children! Having gotten her a diamond necklace, but nothing for her children really hurt. I gave her the necklace anyway and left. A few days passed and I returned with gifts for her children. For me it was closure. Her Father answered the door, she wasn't home but her kids were..Her and I spoke for quite awhile as her children played with the gifts I gave them..He gave me the whole story. I ended up feeling bad for them all. She had lied and deceived them as well. She was addicted to drugs and alcohol. They had tried everything, but nothing worked. He said she went out the after Christmas and had been gone since. Life and music for me are intertwined for everything. The soundtrack of my life. Listening to Wham and George Michael is a bittersweet experience. He died way too soon! As did that relationship.

      Would be nice to see you guy's take on George's MTV Unplugged version of Bonnie Raitt " I Can't Make You Love Me" or "Praying For Time". You had mentioned doing Christmas songs starting in December for 25 days. Would love to see you guys bring to light a very under-rated George Michael's " December Song" . Also " Last Christmas" was written by him and released in 1984, and has always been in the top 10 at Christmas time and the Lovelies, his fans as he called us, streamed and downloaded and pushed to get it to number 1. In 2021, after 36 years, and on the 4th anniversary of his passing, it finally made number 1. It would have hit number 1 in 1984 but it was overshadowed by Band-Aid's famine relief song " Do they know it's Christmas ", which George also participated in.

Called me a breath of fresh air and sent his security down with 4 9th row tickets. I lived so close to Texas Stadium and since sold out, we walked. Great concert. SUPER SWEET GUY!!!! Very approachable at the time. I’ll never forget how real he was. He asked me all about Dallas and if he needed to know anything cool. All I could think of was JFK. Haha.

    I would always (safely and in moderation)drop what I was doing to pay attention to this song every time I heard it on the radio, in a store, at the skating rink etc as a kid. I still find myself doing it. It's a personal tradition at this point. Now when I hear it it's rare so I think about how much this song used to invoke that reaction and just smile. Also since he passed away a few years ago it's a sign of respect for me.

Essentially a C&W band, who tried to incorporate aspects of pop, country rock, & gospel into their songs but the finished products always seemed watered down. Those who were full-fledged rock n roll fans & also loved REAL, quality country rock (Allman Brothers, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Neil Young, Credence Clearwater Revival, Marshall Tucker, Charlie Daniels, Waylon Jennings, The Outlaws, ZZ Top, Eagles, Johnny Cash, K.D.

      I was thinking this exact same thing. That would help when they know they want to do a couple songs by the same artist.

    You really are listening to one of the best British singer/songwriters of all time. He was a unique talent with a beautiful soul and you have much to discover with his back catalogue. I might suggest you watch some of his live performances of which there are many. Love your reactions!!! Thank you.
