Always thought George Michael was a classy guy.... this story makes so much sense.... and in my opinion George had one of the best voices in the business.
Daily I hear more and more about George's loveliness and humanity. He was a gift from God. I pray to Jesus he will be in heaven if Im fortunate to get there, singing something Amazing! 😊
@@aprilgosa5779 that she was already head over heels in love with him. She had no idea he saw her and thought the same thing. It happens that way alot...George's first love ( a lady) & George felt the same way...but they had roadblocks. Shirlie and Martin are what it looks like when true love strikes you hard from that moment!!!!
You know what’s kinda weird is that at the time Shirlie was Andrew’s girlfriend and someone noted that in the song Freedom the lyrics “ saw your lover with another and she’s making a fool of you” was George’s way of telling Andrew his girlfriend was cheating on him. I mean in the end she made the right choice but it’s ironic.
That is not true at all.... Shirlie was Andrew Ridgleys girlfriend when she was 18 until she was 20. It wasn't until after she had broken up with Andrew that George actually introduced her to Martin Kemp... when she was 22.... So she can't have been cheating on him. Also it was George pushing her to date Martin... why would he push her to date Martin and then write a song saying that she was cheating on him with Martin. Makes no sense.
That’s not true…George & Shirlie went out together for a meal and saw Andrew with another girl. George & Shirlie left quickly. That’s the kind of man George was. Then Shirlie met Martin Kemp and he gave her his phone number. Shirlie was too nervous to call Martin, so while they were at George’s house practicing dance routines, George got Shirlie to go into his sister’s room to call Martin. George dialed the number and handed the phone to Shirlie. She & Martin agreed to meet at the Camden Palace, and Shirlie was still so nervous, she brought George with her. That is all documented through interviews with Shirlie, George and Martin. Shirlie did not cheat on Andrew. It was Andrew who cheated on Shirlie.
Maybe George was singing to Shirlie, but it’s conflicting because Martin stated in his bio that he and Shirlie had to be careful because she was dating someone in her band, so that’s why I thought the lyrics were for Andrew. So I’m confused. But it worked out for the best.
Jimmy Carr looks different here. His hair is longer, and brown rather than black, and his face looks fatter, but he definitely looks like he's had some plastic surgery at some stage.
@@Drnaynay What, just recently? I assumed he hadn't been going to a hairdresser because of lockdown. His appearance looks artificial but it's hard to say precisely why.
@@catrinstallon373 There must be something else to talk about besides how Shirley and Martin met, he must have thousands of other stories. It's lazy interviewing
Mr Balfour he is not name dropping you jerk George was Shirlie's best friend and a friend of the family and Godfather to Roman and HarleyMoon don't tell people not to remember someone Martin is keeping his name alive
George Michael should be in the rock and roll hall of fame, period.
agree 100%
And the songwriters Hall of Fame.
He’s been inducted next year. Sad he isn’t alive to receive it 🏆
It is announced recently GM is gonna be inducted
yes because like him the hall of fame as nothing to do with rock n roll

I love it! George was making sure his good friend was safe!
Winnie Wallace.... Love this story, love the Kemps..Having George for a mate , what a joy.

She was afraid of going out with a Popstar?........So she brought the biggest Popstar with her!
He wasn't at the time, Wham! had just appeared on TotP for the first time...
❤😅👍🏽
Nothing but respect for Martin and Shirley. Miss you both . Cheeky
I love that bless the kemps and George.
Yummmy what a silver fox he is. Aging nicely 🥰
What a great marriage! Wish mine was the same! 🏴
awkward...
Then do something about it.
Aye
Kemp is a revolutionary 👊
It wasn't that Martin she was already in love with you and she was scared you were gonna see through her!!!
Darklady429 she was shy and worried they would have nothing to talk about what do you mean see through her?

Andrew chased a lot of girls in early wham days he was the cheater

What Year Did Martin Meet Shirley
would've been 1982...
Shirlie made him go she was nervous LOL

He had a hair transplant

@@heliotropezzz333 several months ago. Hair, teeth, Botox. Google it
@@Drnaynay I think he's ruining himself but it's everyone's own choice.
Asian fishing
Jimmy Carrlooking more like Michael Freeman these days
I Googled Michael Freeman and I'm still lost?
Came on the first date💦🤣
Does Martin have any other stories besides name dropping George Michael?
Well that story did involve him so he's going to be mentioned.
@@catrinstallon373 There must be something else to talk about besides how Shirley and Martin met, he must have thousands of other stories. It's lazy interviewing
@@mr.balloffur I agree, thees plenty more stuff he could've asked about. I don't rate Jonathan Ross as an interviewer, never have to be honest !!
@@mr.balloffur He could have asked why the band fell apart. I think we all want to know by now what happenend there that made TH leave.
Mr Balfour he is not name dropping you jerk George was Shirlie's best friend and a friend of the family and Godfather to Roman and HarleyMoon don't tell people not to remember someone Martin is keeping his name alive
Sick of hearing this story tell him to tell another one or make one up
I reckon the love triangle lyrics to cowboys and angels was wrote about Martin & Shirley
Why
I was rooting for George in reality.
Hey ross👇
Thank you for your comment and I will love to say thank you for being a fan i really appreciate
Stay out of trouble Martin🙏
Jimmy o Jimmy, you don't look young anymore. You look infantile...
Dropped his childhood buddy for the Club. Sellout.
Don‘t know who‘s the most annoying; Martin or Jonathan
