This is one of the most beautiful songs ever written. I remember when they played this at the time George passed away, I'd not long lost my mum who loved this song so much. Let's just say, the tears flowed.
Beautiful George, we loved him so much. Like an Elvis, Beatles kind of collective love...he ws huge, beyond talented, unique, gorgeous. he brought us so much joy and hit us in the heart and soul, too.
This man is a genius, I'm a huge fan and yes his voice is beautiful, he wrote sang and produced all of his music, I'd love to see your other reactions to George Michael, he's amazing ❤
My favourite George Michael song is One More Try. Hoping to hear a review of this song. Back in the days of landlines, there were absolutely rules in play. Merely rules of consideration. Nobody ever called your home after 11 PM unless it was an emergency. Nobody ever called during the dinner hour.
Song comes in and leaves, like a ship in the night! A girl once fogged up a bus window and used a finger to write her number for me. That was the kind of creative ways people communicated back in the 70s/80s!
You need to watch the live version of George singing 'A different corner' on the Parkinson show from 1998...AMAZING 💜 the Last Christmas tune didn't go with the lyrics, a bouncy Christmas tune with lyrics of lost love and heartbreak 😂 but still yet another amazing song from George 💜 George, If I could I would I swear 💜 If you want something a bit different from George then give Freeek a listen. I love it 💜
You guys rock! I love the song for its simplicity while still being complex enough with the lyrics. It's a beautiful tragedy. George was very good at taking his words and putting them to tracks that were so unexpected. The vocals are just George. Nothing needs to be said there. This song and the next 2 songs on list soothe me when I'm agitated. I hope all of you enjoy. I wanted to showcase why he is the record holder of the prestigious Ivor Novello Award for Songwriter Of The Year with 3. Also to showcase the vocals.
Well said Rowan. I especially love the live version he did on the BBC Parkinson show in 1998. It was a live version with a wonderful arrangement. You have probably already seen and heard it though! The interview with Michael Parkinson really should not be missed. It’s still on BBC iplayer.
The best look GM had. George Michael, Paul Young and Simon LeBon all had the best hair of the 80’s. This song gives me chills. Great lyrics and music and sung by the most beautiful voice.
You talked about 'grabbing the moment', I saw a man at the bus-stop, later that day I saw him in the local store, then later that night I saw him in the club, so I didn't miss Chance #3 and grabbed him. 30 years later he's still here... (voluntarily, I feel I must add, no handcuffs were involved) Great song from the legend George, ta x
Pay attention to George Michael’s lyrics - they’re deceptively simple. But his rhyming couplets are clever, the result of his excellent English literacy where he would mess around with a sentence until it not only rhymed, but still made sense. Most artists will punch in an awkward rhyme even when it’s on the nose or barely even rhymes.
This is the song that when we listen to it, we all think of that ONE person we fell in love with, and got our heart broken. For me, it was my first love, how about you?
Now, regarding landline phones, here in the UK, they introduced an alert sound if you left the phone off the hook. Truly irritating noise! Ours didn't have a silent option so you would have had to unplug it from the wall to stop it ringing, but in a house of 5 - that ain't gonna happen. Best you could hope for if the cause of your broken heart telephoned was to ask a family member to say you weren't in, or take the call and immediately hang-up. I really hope you get round to George's live cover of the Celine Dion classic CALLING YOU. On YTube as GEORGE MICHAEL CALLING YOU #listen25
Oh yes - this really brought back memories ! The same in our house. My sister and I used to pretend the other wasn’t in if we didn’t want to talk to someone.
@@ChloeR-vt4bh Lol, glad it wasn't just me. Worst time was when I asked my Grandma to say I was out to a guy I wanted to break-up with. She was truly unconvincing and came back with the message, "He says he's not stupid and will stop calling you". Oh the folly of youth!
Hard to think that he had extensions put in. He had a massive amount of hair. I think that’s his own. His sister was a hairdresser, and George’s hairstylist for many years
Great reactions as always ❤❤❤ GM is a vocal God….one in a lifetime talent You must do a TOP 5 of the iconic British Singer S A M A N T H A. F O X ❤ pleeeeeeease 5 - Nothing,s gonna stop me now 4 - I wanna have some fun 3- Naughty Girls 2 - Do ya Do Ya 1 - Touch Me ( I want your body) ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
You should react to his video response to being arrested for soliciting sex in a mens room, which was entrapment. But, the video and song “Outside” are great and he had a great sense of humor, even though it officially outed him as a gay man.
George BEEN invited to the cookout. Hope we get Jesus To A Child (his best song IMO), Somebody To Love live, Too Funky, Freeek, Outside, As, One More Try, Kissing A Fool, etc.
This is one of the most beautiful songs ever written. I remember when they played this at the time George passed away, I'd not long lost my mum who loved this song so much. Let's just say, the tears flowed.
That voice. Seriously one of the best male voices in all of pop music. ❤
When you think he was 21 when he wrote that... pure genius !
Beautiful George, we loved him so much. Like an Elvis, Beatles kind of collective love...he ws huge, beyond talented, unique, gorgeous. he brought us so much joy and hit us in the heart and soul, too.
LOVE George Michael- Listen Without Prejudice is one of my all time favorite albums!
Absolutely. Iconic album.
It was realised 34 years ago on the 3rd of this month. I celebrated passing my driving test by buying it.
This man is a genius, I'm a huge fan and yes his voice is beautiful, he wrote sang and produced all of his music, I'd love to see your other reactions to George Michael, he's amazing ❤
1990s Praying For Time is one of the best songs he ever wrote and stands up today.
Yes the greatest song ever written.
The live version on Parkinson is sublime. Such a beautiful song by a master of his art. Thanks.
This one cuts so deep. Miss you George Michael. R.I.P.
For me it's the most beautiful song of great George ❤❤❤
This man is a legend. Sorely missed.

Live versions of his songs are even better
From the Symphonica tour is beautiful🥲
George Michael was so talented, beyond words..... And unhook the phone. It`s soooooo nice

Great song from the legend George, ta x
George Michael & Kylie Minogue at the same time???? oh this is the best!
Love George's vocals!
Yes, old phone ringers could be turned off.
My fave George song and that’s saying something considering his incredible catalogue. Miss him every day.
My absolute favourite George song!! :)

Wow first Whitney now George! Two of the best voices ever.
There is a duet with them.
@@rowanmayfair9249 I know :) shame they didn't record something in the early 90s
@Sylwiiia They were both in bad places at that point. She was in a much worse place, though. She looked so painfully thin in the video.
He sang this live on Tony Parson’s show in the 1990’s. His live voice brought me to tears. You can find it on TH-cam.
Michael Parkinson's show 👍
I think anyone can still view it online on the BBC iPlayer. It’s a must see.
Waaaaat. Love this one! Thanks guys
Yah more Gorgeous George❤
This is the song that when we listen to it, we all think of that ONE person we fell in love with, and got our heart broken. For me, it was my first love, how about you?
People generally wouldn’t call too early or late. If your phone rang at midnight it meant bad news lol
I was 20 years whem i saw for the first time this video❤ is me 😢 i'm 38 now

Paft of the beat sounds like a sample from "Stand by me"
His version of Somebody to love by QUEEN 🔥
dedicated to single MIKE 😉
Maybe not the phone in the video, but I remember that we can ajust the volume of the ring...
Oh, i wish it was the live at BBC. Perfect live. I love this song. I hope one day you'll react to George singing Kissing a Fool.
Bjork week! 😍🌟
1. All is Full of Love
2. Army of Me
3. Triumph of the Heart
4. Venus as a Boy
5. Big Time Sensuality
Would you do a Culture Club/Boy George top 5? Another great vocalist from the 80s and still is.
Oh!!! I forgot! You mentioned the mullet. It's fake. He had extensions put in.
I’m not sure about that🤨
@@Debbie-m7f He did. It was mentioned in an interview.
Hard to think that he had extensions put in. He had a massive amount of hair. I think that’s his own. His sister was a hairdresser, and George’s hairstylist for many years
@@rosemiller2990 Melanie was the one who did it. I believe it was done because he'd just cut it gearing up for his solo.
Yes you’re right Rowan, I remember that in an interview that Melanie put in the extensions at this time. He didn’t have them for long though.
Great reactions as always ❤❤❤ GM is a vocal God….one in a lifetime talent
You must do a TOP 5 of the iconic British Singer S A M A N T H A. F O X ❤ pleeeeeeease
5 - Nothing,s gonna stop me now
4 - I wanna have some fun
3- Naughty Girls
2 - Do ya Do Ya
1 - Touch Me ( I want your body)
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
You should react to his video response to being arrested for soliciting sex in a mens room, which was entrapment. But, the video and song “Outside” are great and he had a great sense of humor, even though it officially outed him as a gay man.
✨😎✨
Yo do Westlife week they are huge in the uk
This was written for his partner the love of husband life. ❤
this was written about a quick relationship he had
@@newhere2419 yes my mistake it is Jesus to a child..
Nice of George to slow us down in this age of rapid fire, meaningless, smartphone apps & videos...
George BEEN invited to the cookout. Hope we get Jesus To A Child (his best song IMO), Somebody To Love live, Too Funky, Freeek, Outside, As, One More Try, Kissing A Fool, etc.
You may get two of those. 😉
