He doesn't seem to be emulating Freddie at all. G.Michael has a very distinct style that he is showing here, and it appears that his intention was to honor a legend not to attempt to copy him.
i remmember a few stories floating around the papers that Queen were going to continue with George as lead singer after this performance, i have to admit he did great here but its not really fair on anyone to try and emulate Fred actually im pretty sure its impossible
This is such an awesome performance by George Michael...I cannot get enough of watching and listening to it. I love Queen..yes African Americans can step out of the box too...and I have listened to George when he was with Wham..damn this is a fantastic performance. I can never get enough of watching it, or commenting on it, with each viewing I see something or hear something that I have not heard or seen before... JOB WELL DONE GEORGE MICHAEL BABY TAKE A BOW!!!
George Michael...wow what a performance! Freddie and Queen are the only ones who could have done it better. George is not given the credit that his is due in reagards to a singer. True voice wow...great is all I can say
This was recorded at the Freddie Mercury Memorial Tribute, the year after his death. IMO George did the best cover of a Freddie song that has ever been done!
No one will ever match the skill of Freddie Mercury at this song, but George Michael comes REALLY close. In any case, I say we all get in a bunch of vans and hunt down the one delusional soul who "disliked" this!
WOW this was prob the best live concert ive ever seen, i mean the way his sings etc bcos there r singers who cant sing and move at the same time u know
nuno bettencourt and george micheal, the new queen band. to bad they could not get together an record a albulm. it would be great,best singer an best guitarist in the world!
best tribute ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was never a George Michael fan, but like the others commenting here, I was rocked by his delivery of the song.

I believe no matter what type of lifestyle a person has if they can sing still give credit where credit is due. These guys can sing.

A great effort by George Michael. Then again he can do what most singers can't do these days.....actually sing.
