    In a way this actually was his way of a PSA. The song came out during the height of the HIV epidemic, and I believe his point was not to abstain from sex altogether but to not screw around... to be FREAKY -- but with one person (which is ironic given how he was outed a decade later, but that's another story...)

      @@EmpressReacts @ET Her name is Kathy Jung (Young). She is a make up artist and traveled with him during his Faith tour. I think he was also dating her for about 3 years. George later said in his book, they were really good friends .He did this song to practice safe sex. He couldn't handle the publicity of the Faith tour alone. That is after he left Wham and was so used to Andrew, Shirley and Pepsi. He just hated being alone. I'm 71 and still listen to him everyday. For me, there will never be a more beautiful man than George Michael inside and out. I'll never see another George Michael in my lifetime. His writing abilities is what got to me. My daughter listened to WHAM 24/7 and drove me nuts. Then I started listening to his singing and found out he wrote all of the lyrics, produced them, and did the music to all his tracks. The media did George dirty and so did America when he won AMA soul singer and album of the year. Black America felt a "white dude" shouldn't have received the soul award. I think this hurt him and he left America. George states "he couldn't understand why America had to be so Black/White. He ended up doing his best duets though with Stevie, Smokey, Whitney, Aretha, Beyonce, Ray Charles, etc. etc. etc. My fav will always be "As" with Mary J. Blige. The media wanted him to come out as gay, but he felt it was nobody's business except his own.

  • @petersavieri
    @petersavieri 3 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    GORGEOUS GEORGE (as the press called him in a backhanded way) was a genius pop writer, vocalist, everything. This album, Faith, and his masterpiece Listen Without Prejudice are his greatest, with some incredible songs on Older too, and other wildly brilliant singles. He is deeply missed.
    Aside from the Cold War that ended with the fall of the Berlin Wall, there were 2 other major wars waged in the 80s, the war on drugs (a Trojan horse for racism) and the war on AIDS (a Trojan horse for “Christian values” and homophobia). Ironic use of “Trojan” intended. Sex could be deadly, and very often was. As a kid during this time, knowing little by little that I was gay, I was inspired and intrigued by sexual libertarians like Madonna and George Michael, as well as Dr Ruth and eventually Mapplethorpe and all the great artists pushing back against the vicious judgement of the conservative masses, but I was also terrified that I would die from my desire. And die horribly in a world that didn’t care. The feeling Sex=Death was extremely pervasive. It defined our lives and it took a huge amount of energy to maintain any healthy and… fun… attitude toward it.
    It was the heroes of ActUp and other protest organizations that shifted the argument to Silence=Death, because any practical, scientific war on AIDS from the powers that be was an under-funded charade while they waited for as many gay and bisexual men to die as possible. Intravenous drug users and sex workers too. It was as simple as that. The attitude of most was “these people deserve it so why should we care?” People only cared when the disease spread through blood transfusions (which brought more hate onto gay men for unknowingly infecting blood supplies) or when straight people caught it (and that always looped back to spuriously blaming gay and bi men for “starting it all”). “Normal” people didn’t care about the science, they had their enemy and AIDS and the gays were the same demon to them.
    As a bi experimental and essentially closeted gay man in the 80s, all of this was very much on George’s mind. How do we liberate sex from this unhealthy psychological trauma and conservative puritanism, but also try to keep people safe? Hence what sounds like a PSA about sex in the song actually IS a PSA about sex. The line “sex is best when it’s 1 on 1” was there to save lives.
    George had a very complicated, but not unusual, relationship to his sexuality. He reflected a lot of our fears as gay men, but through it he pushed for freedom.

    You definitly the entire song. Because the song have three parts and a total of 14 minutes. The first was used in the single version. It's not just a song, it's a adventure this entire song and a artistic song. The first album was firebomb and was a masterpiece who he expressed her artistic side for his solo debut. All the nine songs of this album was very good, including my favorite ''Father Figure''. All the singles of the ''Faith'' album (six in total) peaked the top 5 in the Billboard Hot 100, four of them in n.1 (''I Want Your Sex'' and ''Kissing a Fool'' was the only singles to not peaked n.1). My suggestion to a reaction was ''Kissing a Fool'' by him, a incredible jazz song and have a 50's vibe of this song. This song did very well in the charts for a jazz song worldwide, depist it's not popular like in 50's and 60's.

His style is nothing but Magical. through his music, you'll learn who George Michael is. George will take you on a journey with yourself. George is many things to many people, most importantly, he's is so relatable, real & such a wonderful man! You'll have to continue down this road, listen clearly to your listeners, watch as much as you can, such as his interviews, recording sessions, concerts, videos, just being careful about those demons that rite about him, they're only in this business to make money. And their agenda was to take the advantage of the times to all but crucify him & his name. They are hateful nasty bugs that should go under their rock where they came from! George was & still is the most Beautiful man inside & out That you may ever come to know. I hope not the only one, but he'll always be around when you need to hear him. GEORGE IS THAT SPECIAL! Just read what his fans want to tell you what he means to them!

    He talked about the song in 2010 in a interview with Mark Goodier, when he have a introspection about the ''Faith'' album and his legacy. The vibe and the vocals was inspired by the work of Prince, because George was a fan of Prince at the time he write this song. Many years later, he cited he not like so much the part 1 (to your react in this video), but like the part 2 of this song (more funky with trumpet) and this is the reason he choose the part 2 in his first greatest hits in 1998. But he love the lyrics of this song and never regret to talk about this subject in this song at the time of the AIDS. The part 3 of this song (more jazzy to the two first parts) was only in the cassette and CD version of the ''Faith'' album because the lp not included this part (it's finished with ''Kissing a fool'' who it's was technically the ending song of the album) and it's was in a encore song after ''Kissing a Fool''. The part 3 mix the vibe of ''I want your sex'' and the jazzy vibe of ''Kissing a Fool'' and enchained with fluidity between ''Kissing a Fool'' and this part 3.

    This is one of those "accidental" songs. George and his sound engineer were preparing a track of pre-recorded music for a fast paced dance song for the album and the engineer was adjusting the speed. When it was slowed down they liked what they heard, which is what we are now hearing. They thought It sounded sensuous and sexy and had the idea to scrap what they were going to record and rewrote the lyrics and remixed the music to what it is today.
    "I Want Your Sex" is one of his biggest hits.
    As for banning the song? Some countries did but not the USA, oh no, it premiered with fanfare on MTV. For weeks it was promoted to premier on a certain date at a certain time. I remember when it happened. I was in high school and it premiered during my family's dinner time. My mother was stunned.
    The 80's to mid-90's was a crazy era for music, a time when artists were creative and created their own trends instead of following them. Each artist had their own sound not like the cookie-cutter artists of the most recent generations.
    Oh well, life goes on...

    BTW the lassie in the video was George's girlfriend at the time - Kathy Yeung - so it wasn't him fetishising Asian women just him having a girlfriend and not being true to himself for whatever reason, re being gay (consciously or unconsciously). The song actually was put out to push monogamy because of the rise of Aids X

    Empress, you talk in the ''Father Figure'' reaction that ''Father Figure'' was the closet of this song. Definitly. In fact, in the album, ''Father Figure'' was the second track and ''I Want Your Sex'' the third track of the album. At the end of ''Father Figure'' , in the album, it's have a fund to transition to ''I Want Your Sex'' (part 1 and 2) and theses two songs paired very well because of his sensual lyrical content .

    There's boys you can trust
    And girls that you don't
    There's little things you hide
    And little things that you show
    Sometimes you think you're gonna get it
    But you don't and that's just the way it goes
    I swear I won't tease you
    Won't tell you no lies
    I don't need no bible
    Just look in my eyes
    I've waited so long baby
    Now that we're friends
    Every man's got his patience
    And here's where mine ends
    I want your sex
    I want your love
    I want your sex
    I want your, sex
    It's playing on my mind
    It's dancing on my soul
    It's taken so much time
    So why don't you just let me go

    Oh I'd really love to know

    Then I tell you that I love you but you still say no!

Edge of heaven was my all time favorite song of there's also a very sexual song. And I want your sex was only played at night when it came out because of the name. The girl in it was his girlfriend at the time. George was bisexual at the time. He much later realized he was gay not bi. One thing George never did was hide that he loved sex and felt music should be sexual. His music crossed many sounds. He was so amazing.

    Lol I was 16 when this song came out… yeah we turn it UP in the car and when our parents were not home🤣 while these lyrics were more blatant, songs about sex were not new to us. I don’t remember being shocked by this video.. just loved the music. This was a time when women were encouraged to explore their sexuality. The slender female body was everywhere in ads and tv. Models were hugely popular at this time. The monogamy psa was because of AIDS.
    I look back at this time and I’m somewhat surprised my parents didn’t freak out over the music. My parents were very conservative, but they tolerated it and looked the other way as long as I wasn’t throwing it in their face.

    Also noted Empress, the song posed serious problems when it's came out has the first single of the ''Faith'' album. Because of his sexual content and the word ''Sex'' in the title, many radios, in US like in UK, refused to playing this song in radios outside during the night after 10 p.m.! Because it's was the first song including the word ''Sex'' in the title to released in single. It's sure to it's affect his positions of the charts. Also the video was banned totally in BBC in UK and in MTV, the video was playing only in night after 10 p.m.! Depist his problems with radios and TV diffusions, ''I Want Your Sex'' reaching n.2 in US (behind ''I Still Heavn't Found What I'm Looking For'' by U2) for one week and top 3 in UK. it's for me very good consider his problems of his diffusions, with the song and the video, it's sure to this was not ready in n.1 because of that.

    The girl in the video, Kathy, was George's actual girlfriend at the time. George wasn't kidding when he told people he was bi-sexual and I think he slept with his fair share of both. It wasn't until he actually fell in love with Anselmo did he come out as gay. George did get some grief for not coming out before outed after his arrest. George said that he and Anselmo did not hide from anyone and all their friends knew about them. He also said "it is hard to be proud of your sexuality when it hasn't ever brought you joy. Once I fell in love with Anselmo I had no problem with anyone knowing he was gay. However six months into their relationship Anselmo discovered his had HIV and had sworn George to keep it secret. They met in 1991 and Anselmo died in 1993. George said everything went blurry for a long time. The Older album is his best in my opinion and is mostly about Anselmo. I hope they are together now. I don't think George ever got over that loss.

When we reminded her about the moral depravity of the song, she simply stated that she was married, so she can have sex and listen to sexy songs, and when we were married, we could do the same but until then, do as she say and not as she does.
