RIP Aretha and George.....what a fantastic song you two made....thank you!
Aretha Franklin and George Michael two two amazing voices on one song. It doesn't get any better than that. May they both Rest in Peace🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
💖💖💖💖💖
I don't know about 'Rest in Peace', can you imagine the party
I vividly remember 1987, when this song came out. Many people were shocked by the pairing. But their voices blended well. In my opinion, they did a superb job!
@@mateomelendez3733 I agree 👍🏾
I immediately clicked on this. I love this duet. Such an honor for George Michael to collaborate with the Queen of Soul. Very big hit in the day
Also an honour for Aretha to sing with George,remember it was her that sought him out for this duet.
@@gordonthorburn5501
I’m sure she hand picked him for this duet
We had great music in the eighties with surprising pairings! This song was among the best of the decade.
So glad you liked this! The other killer George Michael duet is with Elton John, Don't Let the Sun Go Down. It's very special. The other Aretha Franklin duet I love is with Annie Lennox, from Eurythmics, Sisters Are Doin' It For Themselves. Both duets are must hears!
PLEEZE, PERTY PLEEZE!!!! ❤ George and Elton John video. EPIC!!!
Thank you so much for the suggestions. Check out the Spinners and Dionne Warwick, Then came you.
💖💖💖💖💖
Definitely second the duet with Annie! That one is a powerhouse!!
I was going to say tge Elton John duet. George Aldo did a great Queen song at the concert after Freddie Died& it is live at Wembley Stadium in London. He had everyone participating. Did Freddie proud.
This is such a great song! I was pregnant with my oldest son when it first came out and, after he was born, I would dance around the house while holding him. He would smile so big and flail his little arms to the music. I love how music can take you back to precious memories. ❤
That is awesome.
Love this song! Aretha and Annie Lennox duet "Sisters Are Doin' It for Themselves" and Aretha with Lauryn Hill "A Rose is Still a Rose" are also great duets.
Whoa....I'd forgotten all about Aretha and Annie on 'Sisters....'. Even though I'm a guy, I can appreciate how amazing that song is. If they haven't heard it yet, that's one they definitely need to do at some point!
Yes definitely I love that song
I second Aretha and Annie with 'Sisters Are Doin' It...' Can't get a better combo of those two voices for a Female Friday pick, Amber!
Yessss! I just come to say Aretha and Annie Lennox song "Sisters are doing it for themselves" 100% recommend 😊
"A Rose is Still a Rose" doesn't get the love it deserves. I can still vividly picture the video in my head.
This duet is Heaven for the ears. The way their voices sound together makes my heart smile 😊!
Same here 🤗💕🤗💕
What a classic 80's song! It was a more perfect pairing than anyone could've imagined.
Great commercial team up with the signature 80s pop sound.
I just got goosebumps all over at their high notes!
Michael admitted to being nervous, but he knew there was no point in trying to copy Franklin's style. "Nobody can emulate Aretha Franklin," he said. "It's stupid to try. I just tried to stay in character, keep it simple - it was very understated in comparison to what she did."
This was a stellar duet. So glad you’re checking it out. R.I.P. George and Aretha…💔
Another reason why the 80’s was such an awesome decade! So many great legendary artists on so many great songs, we got awesome duets like this! Aretha didn’t just perform with anybody, you had to to be great, and George Michael had the chops! Instant classic! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
The BEST!
I also suggest Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me, duet by George Michael and Elton John. Also, George Michael's cover of Somebody to Love (Queen) is fantastic.
Agreed!
Ah, yes! One of the more legendary duets in all of music! Rest in peace to both people.
You're too young for Aretha Franklin, go back to your wrestling shows
@@bigolebot actually, I’m not. I’m around 48 and I have other interest besides wrestling.
@@EVGriffinJr You're 48 then that proves my point lol, you weren't alive during her prime in the 60s and early 70s. Tell me what it was like listening to Respect back in 67?
@@bigolebot have a nice day😀
@@EVGriffinJr You're acting classy and smart in response to this weird rude troll. Good on you. 👍🏻🙂
This song was the one and only time that both George Michael and Aretha Franklin singing together. Not only that this song went all the way to hit the #1 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in America, but the song also went to hit the #1 spot on the British Pop chart as well during the spring of 1987. One more thing about this song. This song was Aretha Franklin's only #1 hit on the British Pop chart ever!!! RIP both to George and Aretha
I've always loved this song by these two icons. Another amazing duet that came out shortly after this one is Put A Little Love In Your Heart by Al Green and Annie Lennox.
I LOVE that duet!
They were magical. I loved this song when it first came out, and I still love it today! The one thing I'll always regret is not seeing George Michael live.
Awesome song and RIP to George Michael and Aretha Franklin...
I love this duet. George Michael is finally nominated for The Rock Hall of Fame this year. We’ll know in 2 weeks whether he made it or not. Fingers crossed! This is an excellent song to end on on a Saturday night. Great song choice y’all!
He deserves it
Now we're cooking. The voice of the queen and George. Cant lose!👍👍🤟🤟⚘⚘⚘⚘
George brought his A-game for this duet...still had his swag and just dis his thing and did not try to over do it...complimented Aretha's powerhouse vocals well. You should react to George's song, "I Want Your Sex". Title sounds "dirty" but it isn't actually dirty. It was a popular bop back in the day!
I really hope they react to it also........& you're right, the song is safe for the office
I'd like to reply with a line from that song "What's your definition of dirty baby." 😁 Some scenes in the music video were certainly enough 🔥
@@helindove2237 💯 😂
Great song. As a matter of fact that was the number one this week on the Billboard chart in 1987!
Wow 🎉😮❤ love this ❤😮🎉
This is one of my favorite songs from 1987.
On the screen behind Aretha and George Michael were Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell, Sony & Cher, and Ike & Tina Turner; other famous duos.
I think you should check out of those famous duets, like Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell "Ain't No Mountain High Enough", "I Could Build My Whole World Arounds You", "You're All I Need to Get By", "Ain't Nothin' Like the Real Thing". Tammi Terrell's career was about to take off when she died and Marvin Gaye was in deep depression for a long time before coming out on the other side as a changed man and a changed artist.
Love all these suggestions 💕💕💕
This song is a masterpiece and sung by two legends
The 1980's were some of the best years of all time to be young ambitious with a sunny road of opportunities ahead of you. it showed in the life people lived, the music they listened to, the night life they enjoyed and the people they surrounded themselves with.
Jay & Amber, you'll love his "Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go" when he was in Wham! !!
Jay & Amber, you'll love her "You Make Me Feel Like (A Natural Woman)" ; "Spanish Harlem" and "Until You Come Back To Me!!!!
💖💖💖💖💖
I'm glad you reacted to this, George Michael loved Aretha's music but he was nervous about performing with her because he considered himself unworthy, but they ended up making a terrific song together
Well...I used to run into Narada Michael Walden from time to time. He produced this song. I asked him about this song and the recording session. We had a good laugh and some fun talking about it. I don't know about the unworthy part, but yes George was nervous.
Hell yes!!! Clicked on this one right away, this is such an amazing duet and song!
'Everything She Wants' by Wham! is an absolute BANGER!!!
Two amazingly talented individuals
This song still gets constant play even now
Aretha and George RIP and thank you for this beautiful duet. If you haven’t reacted to George Michael with Lisa Stansfield singing Queen’s song “The Days of Our Lives” I would highly recommend it. One year after Freddy Mercury’s death they held a tribute concert. And this duet is beautiful. I loved Aretha Franklin at the Kennedy Center Honors Carole King! It is an incredible performance! Thank you for the reaction!
Aretha singing Natural Woman at thw Kennedy Center for Carole is one of THE all-time amazing performances!!!
Yes!!!! I knew that you would LOVE this!
I bought the Love of my Life a personalized coffee mug that had that line, "when the river was deep, I didn't falter. When the mountain was high, I still believed. When the valley was low..."
She only had the mug for 5 months before passing away from complications following a cardiac arrest. I still love the song. Thank you for reacting to this.
George Michael One More Try is SO GOOD, you can really see how much of a GREAT singer he is in this one. Not that we don't already know, but you can see just how high and angelic his voice is here. I get chills everytime I hear One more try!!!! Amber u will love it, both of u will honestly, but it's so good!!!!
Another one that I've been waiting for you two to react to! This is one of my "crank up the volume and clean my house" songs. I am always singing the chorus at the top of my lungs when it comes on. Sometimes I'm Aretha, sometimes I'm George.
😂😂😂😂😂me too.
💖💖💖💖💖
George and Elton version of Dont let the sun go down on me is A must. His range is insane
It's one of the great duet performances, and imagine being in that crowd!
When collabs were real and sincere. Love this song since it came out.
Love this song. Reminds me of my mom R.I.P. She used to turn the stereo up really loud and we would dance to it. Great memories.
YES! This is my absolute favorite collaboration of two AMAZING artists!
This was a SHOCKING pair when I heard about it but, the song was 🔥!!! George definitely held his own with her! Long LONG LIVE THE QUEEN!!
You put 2 of the best voices together you get perfection 🥰 ❤
George Michael and Elton John singing Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me is an absolute must!!
I love how, the minute the track started, Amber recognized that it was an 80s tune. You have both grown so much in your knowledge.
Oh, this brings joy to my heart! Thank you for reminding me. 🎉
Even though it’s a duet, this has been my very favorite Aretha song ever since the first time I heard. She shows every single color of her voice in this arrangement and the tune itself is infectious. Great pick guys!!!
One of the greatest duets to come out of the 80’s with 2 of the biggest powerhouse voices in that decade!
george was a great songwriter as well as producer.....in addition to the alltime great voice
For some truly great George Michael, definitely check out "Queen & George Michael - Somebody to Love (HD Remastered) (The Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert)". You will absolutely love it!
Yes I love this performance. He really shines.
Peter Cetera from the band Chicago did a great number of Duets. He did one with Cher, another one with Amy Grant and one more with Agnetha Faltskog from ABBA. You guys should check them out
💖💖💖💖💖
Yes!!!!!!!
Rip To Both Great Singer's,We Still Miss You Both
💖💖💖💖💖
@@juliewhite7469Still Miss Them Both
2 icons that will be forever be a great duo of musical genius! Both are missed today with music. RIP to both George and Aretha!
Can I just say you two just made my night with your reaction?! So glad you got to this one and you really enjoyed their voices together!! Just hours before my birthday … an early present! 😊💜 Next should be George’s tribute to Freddie Mercury ‘Someone to Love’. One of his best live vocal performances.
“One more try” by George Michael is a great song to react to
💖💖💖💖💖
One of my all time favorites! So glad you got to experience this vocal pairing.
Happy birthday, J. You'd love the duet George Michael did with Elton John singing "Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me". An awesome performance from both of them.
Didn't they do that at Live Aid?
I love that y'all added this to your list! You wouldn't think this duet would work, but man does it! George also did a duet with another R&B queen, Mary J Blige, called "As," which is good too. They're backed by a gospel choir. He used to always bring the magic. :)
"As" is phenomenal with Mary!!
AND HIS DUET WITH WHITNEYYY
So happy you got to this one!!❤❤❤
Thank you for finally getting around to this gem. Their collab was magical. RIP to both 🌹
One of the greatest duets of all time.
RIP To the queen, George also did duets with Whitney & Mary J.
Guys, you need to check out Tina Turner and Bryan Adams with It’s Only Love. Amazing duo and song.
Oh yeah...doesn't get better than this...2 of the greatest singers together? Heaven ❤❤❤
George Michael did a duet (backing vocals) on an absolutely beautiful song called "HEAVEN HELP ME"
with a singer named Deon Estus from 1989.
It is a gorgeous song but rarely gets played on the radio because it was a lesser known song from the late 1980s.
🥰I love it. George did so many great duets--everybody wanted to sing with him, it seems. My favorite is Mary J Blige and George Michael, "As" . A danceable track he did with Whiney Houston on her Greatest Hits 2000 album--"If I Told You" is fun. He was so active in charity concerts that a bunch of duets exist that are live only. More duets--check out crooner, Tony Bennet. He released several recent duet albums. George has a duet with him, but I would do Tony and Lady Gaga duet or early Tony in his prime like "Fly me to the Moon."
Wonderful reaction Jay and Amber - I've been waitng on this one. :) Their voices complement each other well - Aretha's sheer power with Michael's smoothness and swagger.
💖💖💖💖💖
Can't go wrong with either George or Aretha and with this song, it's just awesome in many ways!! Many great songs of the 80s and this is certainly one of them and is near the top of my favorites!!
Aretha Franklin loved his voice and wanted to sing with him. She was one of the first to accept him as a soul/blue eyed soul/R&B/pop singer. Aretha Franklin, Smokey Robinson, and Stevie Wonder accepted him in.
George Michaels is one of the FEW male voices who could of done this song with Aretha Franklin. This has always been in my favorite 6 to 8 songs George did. Glad you both finally HEARD it and SAW it
I haven't heard this one in a long time. Such a wonderful song by 2 great artists. Nice choice u 2. 😊
OMG! High in the top of my list of duets. Little known fact, Clive Davis, super record exec wanted George Michael to do a duet with Whitney Houston, but somehow George wanted to do it with the queen of soul and he got his wish. This song hit #1 on the billboard hot 100 in 1987
He did a duet with Whitney as well: If I Told You That
One of the best ever duets. Probably the best of the 80s.
How bloody good is this track? Best male & female voices ever!!!!!!
Duets to put on your list: Phil Collins & Philip Bailey - Easy Lover. Aretha & Annie Lennox - Sisters Are Doing It For Themselves.
Always loved this song- and the both of them. Legends of music that are both greatly missed.
Two fabulous vocal greats .........sadly gone but never forgotten .
I loved that in the background they showed Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell and Sonny and Cher. Such a great song.
I had to watch this twice, these two great singers together was pure heaven! This song has been part of my workout routine for YEARS! George and Elton made a GREAT pair also with Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me. I'm so happy you finally did this one.
Finally you’ve gotten to this jewel. Now you are ready to other fantastic duos of George, such as “As” with Mary J Bligde, Dont’t let the sun go down on me with Elton, “If i told you that” wit Whitney or yet the many covers he made his own like “Somebody to love”, “Killer”, “Roxanne”, “Miss Sarajevo”, “I can’t make you love me”… well, I could spend to whole night writting down great song by him that simply can’t go wrong!😉
Also with whitney houston: If I told you that
What a song!! With the beautiful Aretha Franklin & the awesome George Michael - just SUPERB!!!! xx
Rest well to the 2 Legends that made my Childhood Immortal, Forever Missed & Tina Turner too 😔😪😢🌹💐👏⭐🌟💫🎗🕊
You need to have a picture of George on your back wall! One of the greatest singers song writers of all time. Selling over 125 million récords in his life time. He had some impressive duets in his carear, with Stevie, Wonder, Smokey, Whitney, Ray Charles, Elton, Queen,Mary J, and the list goes on. BTW, this song gave Aretha her first and only number 1 hit in the UK,
One of my favorite duos - 2 legends. I read where George was really nervous about performing with the Queen of Soul. But what a groove and a voice pairing. Best of the 80s. Hope they're impressing everyone in heaven with this one.
George Michael has sang with all the power voices. Whitney, Mary J , yall need to get into it
😍😍😍 I don't remember seeing you react to Aretha's song "RESPECT" (1967). It's awesome. R.I.P. to both Michael and Aretha.
I can’t imagine both of them haven’t already heard Respect before, and they don’t do reactions to songs they already know.
What Do You Know... Apparently I'm 1st with a Thumbs Up. Wow... Aretha's Voice is SO Powerful! Love This Song! Great Choice & Great Reaction, You Guys!
Isn't it fun when that happens?!! I got it once also!!
If you love George Michael’s voice and impassioned performance style, you’ve gotta check out his cover of Queen’s “Somebody To Love”, which he sang with the surviving members of that band at the 1992 Freddie Mercury tribute concert. It is EPIC, and it’s probably the only Queen cover that’s even better than the original. Seriously, that performance is legendary and will convert anybody who still doubts how great a singer he was.
Fun fact! You would think that George Michael's people pursued Aretha's people to do this duet. WRONG! it was Aretha's crew (more specifically Clive Davis) who reached out to George's people to do a duet with Aretha. Everyone was blown away by George Michael's performance during 1985's Apollo Theatre performance in Harlem NY. Which George was also invited to - not the other way around! Smokey Robinson and George Michael did a duet together of GM's Careless Whisper. And George Michael did a duet with Stevie Wonder during the evening as well! From then on, George was respected as a true soul singer! And this song won the 1988 Grammy Award for Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group and gave Aretha her first number one hit in over 20 years - at that time. :)
I knew you'd like this one. Iconic and Aretha knew it. She wanted George to to a duet when he was in WHAM! Her first number one in a very long time.
Pure alchemy! Such great memories❤🔥
Still hoping for Aretha's performance of "A Natural Woman"at the Kennedy Center Honors for Carole King, who wrote the song. One of Aretha's most powerful recorded performances from her last couple of years.
Two legends. George also has another duet with another legend Whitney Houston. Also another classic is with Mary J Blige. Love them all. Awesome reaction.
Great song! Two legends with strong vocals !
Another duet George Michael and Whitney Houston - " If I told that "
RIP George, Aretha, Whitney!!!!
No matter what decade Aretha sang in, 50s. 60s . 70s, 80s,90s 00s , she was/is always Queen of Soul to me.
Thank you Jay and Amber for appreciating good music! ✌
George did a duet with Whitney Houston, too. "If I Told You That."
These 2 won the 1988 Grammy Award for Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals for this song. Absolute classic by two LEGENDS!!!❤️🔥❤️🔥
This takes me straight back to college- if I remember correctly it was 1986? I was in the pub and someone put this on the jukebox - I was stunned, I loved it! xxx
This great duet is always so uplifting. Thanks to George for persuading Aretha to sing with him. He was a deep fan of Soul /R&B and often in live concerts performed tracks from Stevie Wonders ‘Songs in the key of life’ and recorded ‘As’ for a duet with Mary J Blige.
Other comments are spot on , you must checkout Eurythmics with Aretha Franklin on ‘Sisters are doing it for themselves’.
R.I.P Aretha & George ❤️. Heartfelt Thanks to you both for the tremendous legacy of music you’ve both left for us to keep enjoying 🙏🙏🙏
Take a listen to 'The Long and Winding Road' by Aretha Franklin. It's a Beatles cover, and a great one at that!
George does an amazing cover of it as well!
@@rowanmayfair9249 Thank you, Rowan. I just listened to his rendition from the Royal Albert Hall. Excellent!
@@doctormusic7244 You're welcome, never tire of intros to any GM song never heard before.
George's singing voice is so effortless, smooth, and crystal clear.
Guys, this is amazing from two top tier musicians. You’re both asking for more duets well then try this one on for size. You reacted to a song about a month ago that’s good, but when you hear it with the following duet you’ll be blown away. React to George Michael and Elton John singing Don’t Let the Sun Go Down on Me. It’s recorded live at one of George’s concerts. It’s mind blowing how these two can reproduce a classic and make it a masterpiece. PLEASE give it a go. Keep it up guys
