    Makes me weep every time! What a voice, what a legend! Miss you Georgie! My first gay hairdresser in San Francisco introduced me to George back in the late 70s. Then the AIDS epidemic hit and the gay population really suffered in SF. We all worked to raise money for some of the first hospices for gay men. It was a tough time. Thank god we are through that. Bless you George for coming out. Your voice is one of a kind. So much love. ❤️ ❤❤

      true... while george michael was trying to stay alive in this industry, he became so superficial investing in the careers of these terrible singers today!!! One thing I know George Michael once said he wanted to be remembered as the greatest singer of romantic music... and that's how I see him!!!! And that's how he was immortalized singing with his heart in his throat... his music will never die, it's part of him and that's how he becomes immortal.

      @@amriaye7593 you should take a listen to MORISSETTE AMON LAMAR mate she's absolutely brilliant, she's like so easy on the ears with a personality to die for, for a Filipino her English enunciation in her songs is perfection, the only problem is she is an independent artist who won't submit to the big corporate music industry in fear of not being allowed to be herself which unfortunately is not based on talent anymore but rather image based, she's an old school singer despite only being 27yrs old, she mesmerises an audience with her whole persona, personality, charisma with a voice that no one can even come close to 🇬🇧🔥👌❤️.

      The first time I heard this version was an early morning in summer 2017. My ex-husband and I went down to the hotel's breakfast room. We were the first to arrive and exactly as we stepped in, the music started and it was exactly this song. The message I felt was that, after 40 years, it was time to part ways. It's now almost seven years ago that we finally broke up and extra sad because we didn't even argue. We still call each other every week but definitely don't feel like we're going to be a couple again.

      George had a lot of ups and downs in his short life. Thinking he was ugly in his youth, pretending to be straight, getting in trouble with the law and being forced to reveal his sexuality. Finding the love of his life, only to loose him to AIDS, and ultimately loosing his Mom. When he passed that Christmas morning it was a great loss to the music industry. His voice was like an Angel and his song writing ability was amazing. You are deeply missed, George. RIP

It makes me sad, it makes me melancholy and nostalgic. I love George, went to two concerts an even met him once. What a thrill!!! These artist worked at their craft tirelessly. Today they use a keyboard and producer record the live streams. There is no talent needed today, sad!!

The original singing artist is Rita Coolidge; who wrote it I don't know. BUT, HE OFTEN did 'cover' songs FAR BETTER then original artists; he put SO much focus and perfection in EVERY nuance of his delivery....diction, voice control/vibrato, speed/timing, n so on. He DELIVERED w/great INTENT, to me, extremely...masterful and professional NO DOUBT!!! Here is the moment he'd said "Hi, Mom." VERY TOUCHING-THIS SONG and his gesture to her. A TREASURE!

This song tears my heart out for GEORGE, cause i know he felt that loneliness in his soul, that no one cared, at least not the ones he expected to. I dont give a damn if ur straight, gay, or sideways, you still deserve love, care, time. George, i loved you from afar, you never knew me, but i thought you were the most beautiful man I'd ever seen, and i completely loved your soul for the person you were. Have peace my brother!

      George Michael has an emotional, deep and soulful approach. Prince's approach is genius.. If we see how He unroll the song, the song goes through different phases, the choir is going each more dissonant and intense.
      Prince's version worth by the whole: voice, arrangements, production, interpretation of the instruments
      George Michael version worth by his beautiful voice. everything else is practically the same throughout the song. No changes.

      George puts all his emotions in the music when he sings; hence, the gorgeous results we receive. My forever love.

      Check out his "Listen Without Prejudice" and "Older" albums too (I think this was a concert to support the "Older" album released in 1999?).
      Great stuff!! I could list 5 "GREATEST vocalist in the history of Popular Music", yet I completely agree with you. There was something so special and amazing about George's tone, technique, touch and heart.

      I agree that his cover is the best of all I have heard.

      I was 9 when Wham debut, I was a Spandau fan, couldn't betray them with Wham. But I love and miss George so much. So talented, he a Watford boy, so almost a Londoner like myself, of immigrant parents. Never expected him to pass so young and he was so young Beautiful, generous, sensitive man...RIP gorgeous George...how could we ever forget you, your music & voice is eternal xxxxxxx

      Andrew Notley it is. Sadly a very underrated artist. I had the privilege of seeing him in concert twice, once in 1988 and last one in 2011 in the symphonica tour. Just one word... Amazing.

      I used to come here almost everyday until I left my ex three months ago. He would watch as I cried listening to this song on my headphones, not knowing the tears were over him. I had to give up the fight.
