George Michael - Father Figure (lyrics)

[lyonslaforet]

With Faith (1987), George Michael was the worthy heir of Michael Jackson in terms of perfect pop!

[Jackedltdano]

This song isn't about gays or anything like that damn y'all just a good song

[SimpleDanForever]

Voice like BUTTAH!

[kickass908fly]

He is gayy -___-

[sabinasri]

perfect......tis love!



[TheWabafet]

32 people ARENT father figures

[modellaudie]

[kandrex5]

To bad he was singing up a dude

[avrammaria9292]

i love this song...i's more than beautiful <3 !!!

[hayden50]

@avrammaria9292 Masterpiece :)

[archergyrll1]

My favorite singer.

[CampyNeighbor]

I know all his songs. Him and Paula Abdul is all they played on the radio in Podunk Idaho.

[PtoArchAngel93]

Who gives a shit if he is gay? can't we just listen to the music and appreciate George Michael as an artist!

[JKHall46]

@PtoArchAngel93 THANK YOU!!! I don't understand what the man's sexual preference has to do with the fact that he's a great artist...does his being homosexual make his music suck?? I don't think so!

[1ofakindjack]

Love and passion are human traits, no matter straight or gay. This song may raise some eyebrows, but it still is harmoniously seductive.

[spragh]

Hahahaha!!!So much troubles,so much bad words.Hahahha.Im so,so much in the laughs right now.Some of the people are so hilarious over gays,like gays are somekind of a danger to their existence.HAHAHA!!!Noooo,gaayy­y,pleasee,dont breed,the air is poisonus!!!

[mollysangelique]

@spragh weird,talk

[cowboys430isback]

1:57 creature teacher LMAO

[lovelylett]

@Littlemissfighter... Your Comments Re:Something happened to George Bk in the day !!! Yes he became a young Man who's sexual Orientation was to be Gay ... Why make these obsursd Comments .. Maybe you could Elaborate on what is Frickin NORMAL !!!!!!!

[lovelylett]

My favourite.. Please Get well george x

[thefunkydad9000]

This song definatly had to have made in onto sandusky's ipod.

[hayden50]

@thefunkydad9000 lol, what do you think this is? shower room at penn state ? :)

[Davyman1983]

Okay good song by george,but Im still creeped out by the fact he's gay.

[littlemissfighter]

@fifthavenuegirl Why is it not normal? And what must have happened? It's strange to have a conclusion about something you haven't based on anything.

[theblitz00]

@littlemissfighter So what? That's how she feels and she's entitled to feel that way. Not everyone has to buy into the PC bandwagon you're riding on.

[qbqoqbqshark]

@littlemissfighter Thank you. That person is beyond ignorant.

[quidseeker]

@littlemissfighter He's basing it on his own life...lol.

[Almamater8888]

@fifthavenuegirl Perhaps something happened to him during his childhood/teenage years that was sexually deviant. Maybe a priest or pastor molested him, and I say this because of all the religious imagery in his songs and that he always is wearing a cross. And in this song in particular he talks about "love can be mistaken for a crime." He also has some desperation in his lyrics that sounds like depression, and having known those molested as children, they struggle with lifelong depression.

[sylvain3716]

@fifthavenuegirl according to me, thinking homosexuality is ' something special ' - ' something not normal ' ( in 2011 ) is VERY VERY VERY serious. You don't know the subject you're talking about. That's absolutely scandalous ! I feel sorry for your cousin, having to bear such a silly person in his family !!!!

[hotcairoboi]

@fifthavenuegirl

Nothing has to happen to make you Gay. Your either born that way or not. My prayers at night always end with asking god to help people like you with closed minds understand this.

[captainadventures]

@fifthavenuegirl go lick a carpet, lesbo cunt

[mollysangelique]

@fifthavenuegirl stupid,it,s,genetic,and,in,bra­ins,with,men,so,

[electronictrip]

@fifthavenuegirl

lots of dudes w/out dads are gay. like.. there's TONS of gay black dudes because they had no dads in their lives. no shortage on gay black dudes thats for sure . but i agree. Homosexuality is a sexual perversion. like.. outside the norm that God intended. The thing is, i dont view it as any worse than an adultrous wife or husband. it's just a sexual sin; not to make light of sin eventho it sounds like i am. but yea... maybe he was molested as a boy by an older guy.

[heavenlyhot]

@fifthavenuegirl What happened to you in your childhood to make you straight? Straight is not normal! SOMETHING had to have happened

[MegaAzurra]

@fifthavenuegirl E GAY E BASTA!!!!!E FORTE,E NN MI INTERESSA KE SCELTA HA FATTO NELLA VITA........IT'S THE BEST!!!!!!

[PoseidonKross2009]

@fifthavenuegirl I would have agreed with you, but then I took an arrow to the knee.

...But, on a serious note, I believe issue is not about normal or not normal. It's about tolerance, acceptance, and understanding. They are happy they way they are. Why do you think they're called "gay"? lol

[MissDarcyTheFirst]

@PoseidonKross2009 Will Truman would say> "If gay means happy, why am I so sad?"

[fifthavenuegirl]

He is too hot to be gay. I wonder what happened to him. Sorry. But something happened to him in formative years. Men are men. Women are women. Something happened.

[SearchForSolidGround]

As a young gay man I do believe this song is directed at the gay youth. He was very upset by his own actions (not being open about his sexuality) and apologized

to the gay community. More specifically the children. He's got a good heart :)

[gmailuser42580]

Your an ass hes not talking about children you obnoxious moron

[mazaratialbum]

i remember when this song made it to black radio......this was VERY POPULAR..

[Brunnobrito16]

It makes me remember of Justin Timberlake

[garner070]

Sometimes love can be mistaken for a crime. Haha. I still like the song though.

[garner070]

If he ever gets arrested for child molesting they will certainly introduce this song as evidence at the trial. JK

[TheDiogoLoops]

I just hope he's not talking about little kids... "I will be your father figure Put your tiny hand in mine I will be your preacher teacher Anything you have in mind I will be your father figure I have had enough of crime I will be the one who loves you Until the end of time That's all I wanted But sometimes love can be mistaken For a crime"

[littlemissfighter]

@TheDiogoLoops maybe you should watch the music video. It's about an impossible love.

[littlemissfighter]

@TheDiogoLoops maybe you should watch the music video. It's about an impossible love with a grown woman (a model).

[TheDiogoLoops]

@littlemissfighter Oh... And we know how much he loves grown women... :0p

[littlemissfighter]

@TheDiogoLoops that's because if it was a man it wouldn't sell.

[quidseeker]

@littlemissfighter Yes it would. The controversy alone would've generated revenue.

[MsPingu112]

@TheDiogoLoops its more about someone who is wiser and more experienced in a relationship with someone they want to

/like to protect. NOT about little kids. and the love between the two in the video doesnt seem so impossible to me. she just seems younger than her. it happens all the time in real life

[SlumberCloud]

@TheDiogoLoops it is not. Its about a guy who wants to treat a women right who has been used all her life. she just wants someone to be there for her..etc

[AntiSocialChannel85]

@TheDiogoLoops

It's a pedo song.

[sesshysgurl23]

@TheDiogoLoops lmao XD

[bigjim10011]

i ain't gay but i have to admit that is one handsome man.

[watsermetjij]

beutelful

[fifthavenuegirl]

There is something very hot about him. It's his passionate. He's a very passionate person.

[MarionGoesHigh]

The song is just magical.

[AspassiaAth]

This is one of my favorite songs. I loved it then, i still love it now. George you're great. You have the best voice!

[Vaekkrinhart]

I apologize for my horrible language, people. Please forgive me. I'm just passionate.. and live in a hellhole called St.Louis... google it. most dangerous city in the USA.. I gotta get outta this place... St.Louistan.. feel me? Or maybe I'll stick around for awhile and put the fear of MY God in them... God vs god.. Bring it, foe.. you are a lion without teeth. a paper tiger.

[Vaekkrinhart]

I believe in the GOD of the Bible, and don't give one F&&^ if GM has feelings for men!... It's not his fault.. even if it were, I STILL wouldn't care!.... He is a GREAT talent... and this songs touches something deep inside of me.. for my beautiful woman... George, I love you, and I just don't care if you're gay... I don't. I do give a fuck that you were humiliated by a sting operation. FUCK them!!! I hate them for that! I don't give one fuck about it, dude! Hold your head high.. Prayers

[Jason99942]

@Vaekkrinhart First of all, religious topics have no place on youtube. You're simply asking for trouble and you should know better. Also, even mentioning that George Michael is a homosexual is not even important. I'm going to quote you "George, I love you, and I just don't care if you're gay..." How is that statement even remotely relevant to an enjoyable song? What you're doing, is actually saying that he is deserving of your respect, despite his sexual orientation. That's idiotic.

[Vaekkrinhart]

@Jason99942 You have to read it in context, hater. My point is that as a Bible believing Christian, I love him. [God's love is in my heart, so it comes natural.] It's not that I love him despite that he's gay; it's that I love him despite of my own beliefs about gay behaviour. HUGE difference. It's because of people like you that "freedom of speech" is in the Bill of Rights. It's written because of haters and ignorant people like yourself. You're INTOLERANT.

[ilovejessicax]

be with the right woman, this is heaven

[msshaundrel]

With this song, I find myself contradicting myself in a lot of ways; I love it because it has a sexy feel, but I also find myself listening to the lyrics and crying because its soo deep on so many levels

[babyjmd44]

love this song

[davbooms]

24 people had no father figure.

[adamscl07]

Single ladies brought me here too, I love this song

[malamazzi]

...song for making love...

[mark20328]

Is it me or does this sound a little bit like a confession of a CHILD MOLESTER? Listen to the WORDS closely

[tall32guy]

@mark20328 That may be how it sounds but I'm pretty sure it's about something else! LOL Even though it may SOUND like what you thought....

[ShinyMudkip5]

Does this song make anyone else think of Sigmund Freud?

[mollysangelique]

[Treebard]

It's got that oriental scale thing going on, at the end it's especially noticeable. I just thought of that. Cool.

[SuperOnToU]

sexiest song in all history! - opinion brought to you via a pure non-perverted mind.

[Mimmi778]

THIS SONG IS ABOUT ADOPTION.

[inforde]

@Mimmi778

lying naked!!! looks more like what humbert humbert would sing for dolores

[rose12759]

well this song means a lot to me as my father wasnt ever there for me and all i ever wanted was him and still do so at 16 i was with a man 13 years older than me and by 18 having my own child all because i needed a father figure so any men out there who think this is crap think again xx

[Tha4thLetterr]

@TheMinicooperlover hahahha

[Dungarth]

...No modern pop-star can write a song like this! not ANYBODY.

[SADFACE1000]

i wish i was addicted to cocaine .....

[hospitalbedpan1]

is this a song about preachers and child porn abuse?

I keep hearing him ask a child to put his tiny hand in mine?

WTF?>

[dejay1507]

@hospitalbedpan1 HaHaHa......too funny....your comment made me laugh....BIGUPS!!!!

[TuTu99o]

VH1 Single Ladies brung me here :)

[PRINCJD]

@TuTu99o haha same here, there was a marathon on, and when Val and Jerry were having their scene this was like the perfect song. The bbeginning beat already had me, and i was like please God let this be a song cuz I don't want to lose this beat lol. Then I end up loving the song.

[TuTu99o]

@PRINCJD ummm.....y0u watch Single Ladies? Lol thats whats uP

[PRINCJD]

@TuTu99o yes I do, I am not gay I am just in love with Lisa Ray lol, but that is a damn good show, i wasn't into it, but when theres a marathon on and nothing else better to do i was like wtf why not. Now I am hooked

[TuTu99o]

@PRINCJD nah you str8, gay idc.... how you said it... i can only imagine thats it. But iwill be watchin seasOn 2 :)

[tybites4]

quite a creepy song really though i like it, its a bit like that hello song by lynol richie (sorry the poor spelling) where he went around stalking a blind person and then saying "is it me your looking for"

[davis2ck]

@tybites4 meeeee tooooo!!!!!

[Sunny29092005]

@tybites4 : this is the most hilarious comment I've read on youtube in a long while!!!!

[saulo416]

Belíssima música do George Michael! Muito bacana!

[destiny3218]

no it's about him and his young gay lover who was new to homosexuality....when he says baby he meant that his lover has the innocence of a child when it come to the game so he would be the one to guide him through

[abjeetsingh]

this is the most beautiful song my ears have ever heard in my whole life !

[HandofDoom01]

24 Men were hoping to be Mother figures. :(

[becinka11]

coś niesamowitego :) dziękuję za tą muzykę!!!!!! jest ponad wszystkim cudo....

[Wesleysgirl91]

He talks about being both mom and dad.... My mom use to sing this to me when i was younger after my dad past away.. Beautiful Song <3

[crazycone77]

This song is obviously about a child molester. >_<

[strawberrymutt]

@crazycone77 I can see how the lyrics might have come off that way, which is unfortunate, because it is such a beautiful song and is actually about a relationship where one lover is protective and fatherly to the other. A man who is protective and warm to his loved ones is likely to make a really good father when children are finally involved; the exact opposite of someone who would hurt a child. I only say this because I feel sorry that this song has been ruined for you, and hope it helped.

[ionutcuca]

~MY WEAKNESS

[Jcizzie]

Whose your daddy!?!? LMAO

[silverlaws8]

One fine as gay man DAMN

[Justplainolemarcia]

@silverlaws8 Amen..

[RVCA91]

HAHA THE JB'S COMING THROUGH!

[yupitbeme]

too bad he's gay! i'd like to get a shot of changing his mind!

[Chocklit]

A gay man who - despite being in a long-term civil union, openly admits that he cruises for anonymous sex? A great father figure indeed.

[WouldbeSage]

I thought it was, "I have had enough of cryin'," not, "I have had enough of crime"

[amefushi76]

Marco.... trust my love.... Piccola

[Free2BeCG1]

One of My Favorite Songs By Him...Just Luv the Melody!!!

[MrMarv1985]

Just about the most criminally UNDERAPPRECIATED singer/songwriter of the past 25+ years.

His bubble-gum image was soundly obliterated when he went note-to-note with the Queen Of Soul in 1987; his record-shattering CD 'Faith' (first CD in history with SIX top five singles and FOUR #1 singles, two records later broken by Janet Jackson) showed everybody what a phenomenal songwriter he was, and exceptional songs such as this timeless classic erased any lingering doubts forever.

[casseyboo89]

@MrMarv1985 I agree...VERY UNDER APPRECIATED...No one out here is fucking with George Michael

[karinaloverobbie]

I love George Michael. His songs used to be played out load in the car when I was like 7/8 years old.. 90's we're the best!!

[PuppyPetite]

He aint My Hero, Or Father Figure for that Matter either

[PuppyPetite]

Till he exposed himself to a cop at The urinal and offered a BJ  , Made pee wee herman look Like a Joke for whacking off in the Porn Theater.

[amarettaludia]

@PuppyPetite I still love George Michael. So he made a mistake; he paid for it by losing a lot of fans but not me. "He who is without sin, let cast the first stone." There is more shit that Heterosexual Men do to our young girls but that's okay? I don't care if George Michael is a Homosexual . . . I LOVE HIS MUSIC and all I want for him to do for me is keep writing and singing those beautiful songs. I'm a fan of his music; not his personal life. COME BACK, I MISS YOUR AWESOME VOICE.

[PuppyPetite]

@amarettaludia I agree he is a legendery singer I have a personal Favorite " Praying For Time" The words in that song even ring True 20 plus years later

[PuppyPetite]

758 people Need a Father Figure

[localglittergirl]

Great Song!

[breanna4302]

My dad walked out on me when I was 2 and my papa was my father figure and then he passed away 5 days after my 12 birthday and then it was my 2 brothers but now one is in Iraq and one lives up north so there is no one left but my mom

[Deanna0109]

Nice

[jdooley436]

Left out the best lyric: "Greet me with the eyes of a child... Heaven is a kiss and a smile..."

[MsYogawolf]

this song gave me an ear-gasm.

[onelionatplay]

sexy song 

[quidseeker]

23 people prefer their mommies......hhahahhahahhaha

[MadnotMad79]

put your tiny hand in mine....deb :)

[EMlLYlove]

@MadnotMad79 deb?

[MadnotMad79]

dats all i wanted..... :)

[fifthavenuegirl]

George Michael is very hot. I remember when this song came out. Not sure if he wrote this song, but the words reflect a very passionate person.

[Adrianna525]

''hot'' song

[talleyho12]

this song is perfect for all those incest dad daughter couples

[Marinerman1979]

Wow....brutal lyrics. both in the video...and the "correction" below. "someone secret"?

[wertonjornalista]

Música de motel!!!

[gilbertoarturbreis]

gostei da musica

[kissycake13]

This is on my ipod touch! Greatest song ever!!!

[hellraiza81]

This is probably the only song I listen to by george michael. I really like it. I just hope he wasn't singing about a dude when he made this.

[zakperkins]

You are a sick bastard

[MadnotMad79]

some ppl r so sick... i see him singing of a woman...they have smaller hands.

[MadnotMad79]

put your tiny hand in mine :)

[angelicinspiration1]

GEORGE MICHAEL IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL MAN I HAVE EVER SEEN....AND I AM ONE HUNDREDYEARS OLD!!!!

[PuppyPetite]

@angelicinspiration1 God bless you, May you live another 101 years :)

[Vaekkrinhart]

@angelicinspiration1 THAT'S ONLY BC YOU'VE NEVER SEEN ME... AND I'LL EVEN GIVE YOU ANOTHER HUNDRED. LOL.. but I'm serious... but I can't claim credit for it.

[TransAmFormulaV8]

@angelicinspiration1

I guess you haven't seen me. ;-)

[FURY1958]

Maybe one of the most beautiful songs of George.

[aimeecurry46]

"Put your Tiny Hand in Mine" "Sometimes love can be mistaken for a crime"  "greet me with the eyes of a child" Me thinks he speaks of pedastry!!!!

[luvrofdelb]

maybe not, maybe they just dislike the video

[pldenc44]

I will be your father figure bold and naked at your side...

???

[Caveman1006]

@pldenc44 lol!

[MissWWE20]

@pldenc44 rofl

[hospitalbedpan1]

@MissWWE20 or you can learn how to interpret things beyond their literal meaning and see a childs love is unconditional.

[hospitalbedpan1]

I was never a george michael fan, but I must admit he had some talent (talking about music you perverts). Granted, his best music came out with WHAM, but this is my favorite song of his post wham. Actually, it's one of the few songs of his I can still listen to.

But after hearing about his gayness, I think the songs meaning changed big time. Is he singing about sadism?

[freakyfadge]

@hospitalbedpan1

i think it's a gay s&m thing, yeah. most gay dudes sexual fantasize about being dominated by a "father figure" or being the "leather daddy" themselves.

[ChaChamoocow]

@freakyfadge ahahahaha that is definitely some interpretation you got going on

[gsotoaz]

WOW! Bravo! Amazing! This song still gets me....

[traci2go]

Bravo to a fellow Brit

[teewhy1977]

REST STOP!!!!!! EWWWWE

[shawnkrause871]

I wish I were born in the '70s so I could listen to this kinda stuff as a teenager. Crap like Justin Bieber, Hannah montana, Kesha or whatever the hell her name is, has nothing on GM.

[JuggalocodeChile1988]

Awesome tune of the 80's. This IS pop stuff of yesterday that I miss, beats all the todays stuff.

[kabotza]

If it was "creature teacher" in the lyrics, this could be the perfect theme for X-men:)))

Also adding: Put your titan hand in mine:)))

[EVOLOVESJIMBEAM]

he made a song. That song is father figure. get reel people, we are listening to a song i really dont care if he punches chocolate monkeys, i feel what i feel about this and there aint no shit poo fuck. ne one can say about this. Rip Dad.

[Shagjaur]

He's too gay for me, and I am a man....he seems more manly than a tiger...which is a shame..

[pauliinababe]

ja tą piosenke lubie bo agnieszka chylinska są śpiewa~~~~!!!!!!

kocham cie aga jestes zajebista!!!

:D

[1954sandyhess]

Hey does anyone know for sure what George is saying in this part of the song...Is it...(PREACHER TEACHER) OR (PREACHER TECHA)???? I've been speaking with a girl named Cindy here on u-tube and she says it is (PREACHER TECHA) however,my husband printed the lyrics out for me on a site and it says he is saying,(PREACHER TEACHER).Anyone know for sure??? We would like to know.Thanx Sandy from Ohio Oh,by the way George going gay was a shocker for me.He is so darn cute!!! Oh,well,we girls can dream. :o)

[Nasalea]

@1954sandyhess ....it's preacher teacher, stop talking to this Cindy person, it's bad for you, mhm.

[1954sandyhess]

@Nasalea ,ahh now that's not nice.Cindy and I have been just trying to find out the correct words to george's song.I can't hear what he is saying and she can't either.I think the only way we are going to find out for sure is if someone has the actual CD and the words are on the lyric sheet inside.So if there is anyone out there that has the CORRECT WORDS PLEASE LET JUST ALL KNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[domin755]

@1954sandyhess there are hundreds of websites that have the correct lyrics on them.

[Baloonsnufsaid]

Freddie Mercury, George Michael. Most of the greatest singers were gay. Poor girls! :'(

[captfreese]

I love this man ... Beautiful song to!! ...& He doesn't our permission to be happy!
