You can't be over 30 and hear "Careless whisper" for the first time. That is just not possible.
Yeah, its pretty impossible, other songs maybe, but careless whisper?
That’s an 80s song! Aren’t those people expired already?
It's not their genre. There are probably millions of famous rap songs out there I have never heard...
It’s the hustle
As bad as people saying they never heard ‘stairway to heaven’ … jokes .. all for views
He was a darn teenager when he wrote this gem. Absolutely amazing song.
Yes, only 17 years old. How does this happen if you are not a musical genius?
@@rosemiller2990 ghost writers.
@@byunknwn he produced it by himself
@@byunknwnOh Mark. It's sad that you don't realize some people have REAL talent...😢😢😢
@enurajayamanne4051 Andrew Ridgley helped write the song. I wonder why they changed it from Wham, to just George Michael. When clearly it was on a Wham album and not his solo stuff.
RIP, George Michael!! One of the GOAT...
It’s hard to say how huge this song was in 84’
RIP George Michael...A beautiful soul, gone too soon..❤️
The best die young. Unfortunately. His music will be in my heart until I die myself👍
George joined the huge list of celebrities who died in 2016, died on Christmas Day.
You have no idea of the number of masterpieces this man has produced. Go down the rabbit hole
George was 17 when this came up in his head, 17 !!!
One of the best singer songwriters of the last 50 years, his albums Faith, Listen without Prejudice and especially Older are classics, he had a truly great voice, he was such a generous man giving away money all his life, he passed away on Christmas day, he just lay down and died aged just 53....he is much missed...
Listen Without Prejudice is a masterpiece.
Don’t forget the albumPatience . When it was released, it was the fastest selling album of the year. It had some beautiful songs, and George’s voice was totally on par.
he unalived himself, my friend. rip
This song is credited as "Wham!" It came out in late 1984, and became the #1 song of 1985 in the USA. The sax riff is one of the most recognized in music history!!!
There are some songs on George Michael's "Faith" album that are absolutely essential! They are "Faith," "Father Figure" and "One More Try." That album had SIX top 5 hits, including FOUR #1 hits! There are also some Wham! classics, like "Everything She Wants," Freedom" and "A Different Corner."
Don’t forget Wake Me Up Before you Go.
@@taoist32 I never cared for that song, but it was #3 for the year, when "Careless Whisper" was #1.
It was only credited as Wham in the USA I think, everywhere else it was a George solo record, the same with A Different Corner. Also in the UK, Listen without Prejudice and Older albums sold more than Faith
I love A Different Corner!
Last Christmas!
Hi Guys greetings from England 🇬🇧 Geoge Michael was a huge international singer and an English iconic singer who sadly and tragically passed away far too early.
George was an exceptionally talented singer and you should check out George as lead singer with" QUEEN " singing SOMEBODY TO LOVE as a tribute to the late Freddie Mercury and this was George at his absolute best and it was an outstanding performance and so worth watching as his vocals are superb and you Guys will love this.
Cypriot* not English
@@panospap4544 so if you are born in London and grow up and live in England 🇬🇧 you are not English???
I got chillz when he said "I'm not familiar with GM at all!"
Wow. Amazing how we all travel through different worlds.
I wouldn't be familiar with the music they grew up listening to, either. I haven't listened to modern music in over 20 years. I do hear a few here and there -- like on Instagram -- that I like, but I don't actively seek it out.
@@sallyphillips9175 Same here. I'm 25, but have never kept up with modern music. Anything younger than 20 years on my playlist is what I heard on the radio, in passing.
@@sallyphillips9175 So true!😄 I wouldn't be able to recognize or name 90% of chart music in the last 20yrs even if my life was on the line.
"Different corner" is a must
A signature song for George Michael. No cover will ever do it justice. By FAR, this is the song I replay in my mind when I think of him.
This and of course Faith. But he had tonnes of classics. RIP George, always missed
One of the best greatest looking male artists of all time, with a swag that comes close to Elvis. This man's road was clearly paved with gold, and was for a short stretch. His music will continue blessing newer generations.🌹
Father Figure is another guilty pleasure by George Michaels worth checking out.
'guilty pleasure'......huh?
I LOVE Father Figure.
@@billyoliver4000 Did you know the song was originally supposed to be a dance song? When he was recording it, he took out some of the drums while recording other parts. What he heard was so unique & special, he decided to keep it. I can't imagine the song with more complex drums. It's amazing as is!
Who is this George Michaels person?
im getting old when people dont know George . This was the number one Billboard charted song of 1985 , he also had the number one song of 1988 "Faith"
Yeah, know what you mean!!😪
Agree "A Different Corner" is one of his best but "Praying for Time" is also amazing and the lyrics are still relevant today
These are my 2 faves.
Different Corner is a stunning vocal performance. George was a brilliant songwriter and performer and as a red blooded male, he was a damned good looking guy
Love "Praying for Time".
George the best❤
*EVERYTHING SHE WANTS* - *_George Michael/WHAM_* mid-80's masterpiece !
One of my favs
@@Donna185 Mine too!
Careless Whisper remains a great song that stands the test of time. On another matter, George Michael was very generous with his time and wealth. A lot of stories came out after he passed. RIP.
I highly recommend his songs “Faith” and “Jesus to a Child”. George Michael is simply amazing.
Spandau Ballet "True" is another classic that will really leave you in the WOW factor
George was a musical Genius , wrote produced and played on so many great songs
one of kind
This Song Is a Masterpiece So Right 👏 RIP George Michael 🙏
Wham! Careless Whispers by George Michael
Freedom is fantastic!!!
"Where did your heart go" also a banger.
Freedom, Too Funky, Faith and Flawless are all George Michael classics ❤😊
George wrote this when a teenager. Also added his longtime school friend and musician in Wham! Andrew Ridgley to the credits so he could receive royalties as well especially after George died.
George Michael was huge in the 80's alongside Michael Jackson, Prince and Madonna. He was a musical genius. It wasn't recorded at the time, but this was written when he was 17 years old. Mind blowing!
George was a music icon. George was one of the most talented singer and songwriterr ever. One of my favorite is 'One more try' official video. I believe that most of his songs were very close to his real life experiences.
That song is deep
Great to see a George Michael reaction on the channel. He's one of my all time favorite artists. His song "One More Try" would definitely impress you.
In today’s pop, we don’t get singer-songwriters like George Michael anymore.
The best George Michael I've heard was when he did Somebody to Love at the tribute concert for Freddie Mercury-really should check it out
The hair, the clothes, the voice..... only one George Michael..
The sheer talent, AND, a beautiful soul!
Yep! Dude was the complete great man or ultimate Gigolo imo. I just wish he was just that and not gay. 😢
One of my top five male vocalists, superb
The guy was an entertainer! He had serious talent
Great song thumbs 👍!!!!❤ .
George has a great catalogue of songs. Well worth a deep dive into his songs.
love George he is my fav
RIP. George Michael has a great catalog of music. Hope you do more. "Kissing A Fool" is one of those good songs.
As soon as you hear it you know it's a hit
George Michael - this brilliant genius. He was able to make you cry with his voice. After 54 years of life, I don't know anyone who has impressed me as deeply and accompanied me through my life as George Michael. I still can't understand that he is dead: I still can't believe that he won't write any more music. Even though George never just wrote songs. George wrote music history. With every song, with every line, with every vocal. When I hear him today, I cry quietly. With joy at being able to experience it, with pain at not being able to experience it anymore and with happiness that he is more modern than ever.
TRULY A LEGEND
George Michael is one of the best male singers - ever
He was the creative head of Wham! "Everything She Wants" and "I´m Your Man" are my favorite songs of the Group. From his slow solo stuff I would recommend Father Figure (MTV unplugged) and One More Try (Concert of Hope). These are probably the best known, but "Kissing A Fool" is my favorite. Alongside "Faith", "Freedom'90" and "Fast Love", "Spinning The Wheel" is absolutely worth listening to.
What a talent. He broke our hearts.
This is legend
It's still hard to believe he's gone forever
He did a duet with Arethaz Frankin too called I knew you were waiting for me Its a beautiful song.
Such an amazing song. You should check out Father Figure next. RIP George. You are loved and missed always ❤❤❤
also one of the most handsome men I have ever seen
My absolute favourite artist of all time❤❤.. soundtrack of my life his music❤❤
RIP George Michael. He had a voice like no other ❤
Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me (Live)
Song by Elton John and George Michael...FUXEN AWESOME!!!!
10000000000%
A great great song .
From 1984 until about 1990, this was always the last song played at any school dance or at the clubs.
Simple the number one forever.
this song is out july 24, 1984! it was the day of my 16 years old birthday! I like George since this hit!
One of the greatest voices of the last 40 years. He sold over 100 million albums in his lifetime, and keeps selling. Great duets with Elton John ("Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me") and Aretha Franklin ("Knew You Were Waiting For Me"). Solo Songs incl. "Freedom 90", "Jesus to a Child", "Father Figure", "Faith".
you need to watch the 2008 live show he did the tour was 25 live and he got all 95,000 of the audience singing this with him
he was 17 when he wrote this song
This is probaly one if the most played songs from the 80s ever and still gets airplay today 40 years since its release. Amazing artist and very sorely missed.
I think this was also in Miami Vice (80's TV series)like so many other songs of the time.
This was in alll the clubs back then. Even a rocker like me liked it, just so well done.
This song was played all the time on the radio and mtv, when mtv play videos, so I find it hard to believe that you never heard this song. I recommend watching the live performance of this song in Japan.
The Mount Rushmore of 80’s music was Prince, Madonna, Michael Jackson and George Michael. That’s how big he was. His group Wham! was massive and then his solo album Faith was a huge hit.
The 1st and last died in 2016...I may be wrong but I think the other 2 were both born in 1958🎩
George Michael is amazing live. Such a terrible loss. My personal favourite is Papa was a rolling stone/killer.
Best lyric of all time - 'guilty feet have got no rhythm'. Genius.
George Michael was a top drawer, all time great up there with MJ, Prince, Elvis etc
one of the greatest voices of all time
In Italy this song by George Michael had an incredible success...... even today it plays on Italian radios
How can you guys be your age and not know this song or who George Michael is? Thanks for the video. It’s great.
He had a beautiful voice. RIP George Michael
one of the best songs of all time. it´s like a good red wine. it gets better and better with every year
Woooooow! George Michael is probably the biggest British artist of the 80's & 90's. Wrote & produced much/most of his own material. You must check out 'Fast Love' & 'Kissing A Fool'!
He was a serious GOAT!! Gorgeous and extremely talented. Will never be another.
My favorite male vocalist. I hope you go down the rabbit hole.
George Michael was pure talent songwriter, singer, producer even he wrote the sax riff and played the music for the most of his songs GENIUS!!!!
I agree with one of the comments above. A different corner gives me goosebumps. Beautiful!!
Pure natural talent. He wrote this and many of his other hits. He was an awesome music composer singer and songwriter. He was is a legend for sure.
His album "Faith" is filled with masterpieces. "Father Figure", "One More Try" & the title track are especially great!
Hit the nail on the head, absolute masterpiece!
george michael was one the best to ever perform on stage and this one my favorites song of his wish he was still around rest in peace your music will live forever.
George Michael was truly one of the greatest singer/songwriters of his generation. Most artists with that many hits are doing songs written by others, but he wrote them all. As a teen in the 80’s I remember how he was absolutely everywhere on the radio. Glad I got to see him live once back then.
he's my all time favourite.. its sad that he passed on too early...
First time i have seen someone point out the lyrics and message conveyed. I understand its easy to overlook because the sax and his voice are phenomenal... but the words have depth, meaning, life experience. Timeless track
RIP GEORGE MICHAEL..it’s my favorite track of his.
I'm a hard rock guy, but you've got to appreciate talent when you see it. Not a fan back in the day, but my wife and I loved listening to his Older and Listen Without Prejudiced. The agreement, production, and singing is second to none. There's a lot of his live work that is tremendous too.
Oh so many memories with this song.
Everyone should know this song.
George Michael originally from Cyprus respect loving you appreciate you and we are very proud of you you are one of our heroes you are a myth like the great Alexander Greeks
Almost 40 years old, this sound is timeless. The slow song par excellence. Thank you for this memory and for your reaction
Love this song ❤
Certainly one of the great singers that defined the eighties. Maybe the greatest.
It’s very beautiful and nostalgic
This song went through a renaissance because of it being in "Deadpool." He references the song twice and it plays during the final credits.
Yep this this this the song you want to play to your real sweetheart not some shallow , superficial 304 , you met in like Miami !
Funnily enough I recognize the saxo solo from many shows too, even Detective Conan if I remember correctly!
George was an amazingly talented artist and very generous human being, sadly missed.
Ah, you are discovering George! 😃🤩
Great reaction, you can’t go wrong with George Michael, a true artist…. So many hits like Father Figure, Faith….❤ RIP ❤️
Check out “Live at Concert of Hope 1993.” Geroge was such an accomplished singer and performed better in the studio than anything else.
Definitely worth seeing “MTV unplugged 1996” simply amazing.
One of the most moving performances for me was "A Different Corner" Live On BBC Parkinson Show.
Geroge, we miss you
That sounds really familiar because it's the sound of the 80s baby. Saxxxxx.
George wrote this when he was 17. He was so talented and was so loved by many.
