an amazing singer huge talent sometimes it annoys me when ppl care more about his private life than his excellent singing this is music at its best n that's all that should matter nothing else
Your voice is pure magic !! I love you since 1984, when I knew that you came on earth blessed with genious !! It is 2010 and I am still listening your music with the same thrill...... THANK YOU.
I cannot even describe how much I love this beautiful song - deep & subtle lyrics, original music, amazing performance. George is one of my all time favorite artists of the 80's (along with Madonna, Bryan Adams, Belinda Carlisle, Whitney Houston, Sandra and Laura Branigan). He's living incomparable Legend!!!
@chup1972 My thoughts exactly...George's voice is magic and mesmerizing. I find it beyond believe how he manages quieting the public without any effort to listen to one of his beautiful ballads even right after a more stumulating song. It's so stunning! I never saw MJ live but I wonder if he was able to do the same with all the bells and whistles he always used... Nowadays it became even worse: look at all the "attributes" Lady Gaga & Co needs to keep the audience focused. Not my cup of tea!
@chup1972 - "need" is completely the wrong word in that situation, neither of them need anything but their great songs and great voices, the difference is Michael Jackson just chose to not settle for good enough, he decided to make his shows as good as possible
@deemiro He is absolutely brilliant live!! Best Vocal Performance I've ever had the pleasure to see (and I've fortunate enough to see many, many of the greats live).
Far out!!! His voice is like silk touching my soul. Do not compare this real artist to weirdos like Michael Jackson (R.I.P.) or stupid shit makers like Britney
@Angelo92248 - Come on man, be fair here. Michael Jackson was a brilliant artist. George Michael has his own place in my heart but MJ was absolutely brilliant!
OMGGGGGGGG did any1 else notice that the suit george is wearing here is the same one that joe mcelderry wore when he dueted with george last year on the x factor..kinda creepy
If you listen well you will see that he is singing live. The simple fact is that he is probably the best artist in the world singing live. Best version of this song, thanks for posting.
Unlike other untalented performers, George Michael doesn't need to lip synch and there is absolutely no evidence of that here. Its just that his vocals are always just so immaculate one can only assume he does so.
I have this on VT in better condition, I'lll upload it ASAP but getting marrief next month so please be patient fellow Goerge fans ... this whole "Live" gig was superb!!! As ever!
No, he's not lip synching here. In fact, if you listen to the original, then listen to this version, you'll hear how he changes the notes up in certain sections.
and proud of it !!! along with my good pal Charlo from Darlo, and to this day we are STILL massive fans of this beautiful man, . . . have been since i was just sweet 16, . . . always will be in me old age, . . . thanks for posting, GEORGE WE LOVE YOU !!!
This was from Prince of Wales Trust, a registered charity in the UK. It has nothing to do with Princess Diana. Having said, what a great performance!!!!!!!!!!
George Michael has got to be one of the Greatest Vocalist, Song Writers and Performers to ever walk this Earth, I'd do anything just to meet this man an have a Quick Chat, cause obviously hes smart, politally and an amazing lyricist
George, keep Writing and keeping singing, cause ill never stop listening to your music till the day I die
George Michael has one of the best male voices ever; when he sings, it's powerful and yet control, and it's clear, you can hear the lyrics clearly. Also, his voice is a little difference depend on the song that he is singing. And he is an incredible song writer ever. He's is gift to the world of pop music.
I couldn't agree with you more. I also think as a person, the way he talks about things in interviews also makes him extra special. He is very kind, sensitive, funny and intelligent. An example! And this song is my all time favourite...
Great video! Only problem was the soundtrack from beginning to 1:11 fluttered until George came onto the stage. I hope this was a computer glitch, and not an actual recording from the DVD itself.If it's a glitch, Please upload the video again as your video would be PERFECT!!! Thank you.
Anyone know where I can buy this on DVD or VHS? I know Disney produced it. I used to have a copy, but lost it when moving into a new house. Would love to have another copy of the concert. If anyone knows, let me know. Thanks. And thanks for posting the song.
MY GOD!.big fan of george michael nw 4 alsmost when he started the music buisness.after hearing this version of father figure make me wonder hw he should go on 4 anouther 320 yearsand also hw artists nowadays such as JT,Christina,Brtiney,lak the talnet.Even if u combined them u still cant be GM voice,his lyrics,and also his sense of care 4 the music business.
for all you viewers.. notice polleke1's tape is going fast and slow, instruments are out of tune but George's voice doesn't? I think it is because he is god!
this concert was originaly broadcast on bbc tv in 1991, george was on for 1.5 hours after simply red and KD Lang. George was by far the best. He was the reason I went. It was called the concert of hope for world aids day on december 1st in the precence of princess Diana.
Once again a reminder why I've loved him ever since I was a kid.
