George Michael - Roxanne

[michealfan2012]

encore! this is my fav version of this classic song- hands down

[trifecta517]

my god this version is the best

[ReneeDeRiyadh]

he has a passion of a straight in love man.

after all, all REAL artists are weirdos.

[GeorgeMichaelShow]

Lovely version of the classic Police song.... Songs From The Last Century is an amazing album

[jdlh1989]

Really?lol.please name any singer black,white,red or purple that can top George's voice.His phenomenal voice has been recorded in multiple genres of music,showing great diversity.he's not only a 'soul' singer anyway.There may be some voices as powerful but who else has that smooth,beautiful tone like that?Amazing control and range too.Every rendition he's done has blown the original version away ! including Stevie Wonder,Bonnie Raitt,Roberta Flack ,Beatles and Sting songs! Even Aretha F. agrees!

[dimasirbu123321]

@jdlh1989 What about Michael Jackson? :/

[KONAMAN100]

tremendously awesome

[soniammcalear]

WOW, HOW BEAUTIFUL VERSON!!!!!

[brightspark495]

stings version sounds like crap compared to this one... george michael gives it so much feeling...

[Mo0miE]

@brightspark495 Well Sting wrote the song. So you should still be grateful to the original artist!

[looneyirish007]

whos sting????????????????????????

[mygoldieluks]

I love this song,makes me cry,and my name is Roxanne.

[connorrehanfeaglasgo]

@mygoldieluks are you the whore he's talking about?

[mygoldieluks]

@connorrehanfeaglasgo No,your mum is the whore,fool.

[connorrehanfeaglasgo]

@mygoldieluks is you mad?

[mygoldieluks]

@connorrehanfeaglasgo Nope,it is YOU ,who is mad,bozo.

[connorrehanfeaglasgo]

@mygoldieluks nice wit, responding with what I said. simmer down roxy

[mygoldieluks]

@connorrehanfeaglasgo get lost!

[FlowEvy]

Magnifique... Et pourtant, je n'aime pas qu'on touche aux chansons de mon groupe préféré. Un autre chanteur à fait une autre reprise magnifique, un peu dans le même style que celle de George Michael : Il s'appelle Jérôme et il est le chanteur du groupe H.U.M. (à voir sur myspace)

[roxknocks]

oh Godd, amazing!!! my name is Roxanne and this song makes me fell good..

[danNYx86]

i listen his music, just i don't like this song (the sound especially, as well lirycs), and the video is crap.

[pieries]

the best male white soul singer…at his best!!!

[elephantinrm]

@pieries Why white? This guys great period.

[pieries]

@elephantinrm, yeah. but there are more powerful black soul singers. i'm emphasizing in 'his' category he is great, especially since there are so few WHITE soul singers.

[Empha84]

@pieries Agreed. There are a lot of great white soul singers but George Michael is the best. He is a great singer period.

[bidasole]

sting <

[jrquist404]

This redux of Roxanne is a bit weird, but I love George's singing! He sings 1000% better than Sting!

[sirquinsy]

I was hoping this was going to be George-Michael from Arrested Development. :/

[spindrssd]

@sirquinsy Nobody cares about your stupid TV-Show. Just listen to the music.

[Musistify]

serenading Eminem with this song (for banning me and calling me "spam" on facebook - what a bonehead he is)

[redsummerwings]

sexy voice.

[DunkinDonutful]

long live GM. (and i dont mean general motors)

[DunkinDonutful]

GEORGE MICHAEL IS LEGENDARY. I HOPE HE KEEPS GROOVING FOR EVER.

[seanr521]

didnt know g m ic

did this song

completely different to the amazing sting version but still id say lots of people like this song more ballad like and this is the version ffor those

cool

[afnsasebo]

Daaaaamn good!

[supersportoutlaw]

In literacy centers at my school I had to listen to this song this is what I had to do: there was a side of girls and there was a side of boys, and when the boys heard the work red lights they had to stand up and punch the air and when the girls heard the word roxanne they had to stand up and punch the air but when the boys hear the word red lights again they have to sit down but they don't punch when sitting down and when the girls hear Roxanne again they have to sit down and not punch until t

[MyKnf]

Sting hit the dislike button 72 times...lol

[stelovequark82]

un artista è un artista a prescindere dalla sua sessualità, anche se la canzone non è sua la sa interpretare alla grande....come individuo G.Michael ha un modo di condurre la sua vita molto discutibile ma come artista è eccellente, credo sia questo la cosa importante per noi del pubblico.

[2pasha2]

divine

[vdekur001]

its more the 10 years ago nadXXX greetings from kostas hope to hear from you something greetings

[whirlyfan]

love this version of roxanne 1

[TheSparrowYWJackson]

Je préfère cette version acelle de sting !!!

[SebyLar91]

careless whisper is much better!!!

[YESHUAISMERCIFUL]

I dont get why everyone always has to bring up that he's gay, focus on his music. i'm not for homosexuality at all, but that's his business, i just love his music.

[kingdyl]

I Love all his music and I especially love the entire album Roxanne was recorded on.

[boghinya1]

abajaiu etu pesniu

[Prezydent1990]

Shit . Słabszego utwory nie widziałem pozdrawiam 2:00 Maciek w oknie xD

[aky19832001]

This song made me want to find hookers and song for them roxane

[REQUETECOJONE]

Move away Sting. The king is still alive and well. Dealing with drugs and prison, but when he sings, he sets a lot of souls free. Including mine.

[69christine711]

@REQUETECOJONE bravo!

[lunariddle]

this song and video actually made me want to cry...

[ocean4315]

George is a great artist. I wish he could get away from the drugs. That's the only time we hear about him now.

F**K, I hate what drugs does to people!

[YESHUAISMERCIFUL]

@ocean4315

I know what you mean, people glorify drug use, yet i've seen what drugs can do. as a result of drugs i lost my twin neice and nephew, my 16 year old friend died of an overdose, my husband's past drug use effected him in many ways. i've never done drugs because you learn from things like that, but sadly drugs are still potrayed as 'cool.'

[kezie666666]

stunning version wow...george is amazing

[justplayfm]

This video was just added to a music playlist at JustPlay.fm

WHAT AN EXTRAORDINARILY BEAUTIFUL VOICE......TRULY ONE OF THE MOST GORGEOUS SINGERS EVER!!!!!

[wra7h]

Roooooooooooooxanne

[MALTA518]

Dobra robota. Wierzę, że nie powiedział jeszcze ostatniego słowa.

[27Disa]

love him

[9eikwomerw]

This version is actually pretty good but the original is better. Both are very different sound wise though.

[seba73]

Muy buena version !!!

[TheLoca87]

wonderful song!!!

[szil70]

Szuper!!!!!!

[SeboZax7]

Why are gay people so afraid of being labeled an aberation? Is it normal to be gay, or to desire children, or dogs, etc.?? Don't say I hate gays because I don't. I would just like your opinion on this interesting topic. What do you think? I think any sex that is not male and female is an aberation. I think it is not natural, just as if a person is born color blind, 11 toes, etc..

[handsdown101]

@SeboZax7 pretty sure you just compared gay sex to having sex with a dog or a child...two CONSENTING adults... who gives a damn what they do between their sheets.

[leopacio]

@handsdown101 ah no one gives a damn what they do behind close doors. It's when they actually shovel it to your face that you start giving a bit about it. if anything in respect of other people that might not think the same as them.

Anyway, great song, great version, very elegant, and him, as usual, a great voice.

[rolybling]

@SeboZax7 Why are you talking about people, men, having sex with children and animals on this video? No seriously, why? Are you comparing paedophiles and people who fuck animals with gays?Really? And why are you talking about gays on this video anyway? Because George Michael is gay? You sad fuck, you're the sick one, who in their right mind other than a straight out pervert would be thinking about that stuff when they're listening to music? Look in the mirror, there is still hope for you.

[librawitch7]

@rolybling don't take this the weird way rolybling, i swear i'm not a creep or anything, but from what i just read you're an amazing person. THANK YOU for actually having a brain. there is hope for this world hahaha

[ivannikitin777]

ты мой сладкий ) где ты?

[TheLayla2877]

i adore you George!!! big fan!!

[TheLayla2877]

he is beautiful!!!!!!!! what a voice!!!

[XJorgeLorenzoSpain1X]

lovin it

[zefrenchgirl]

Much netter that Sting! he sings that song with emotions..feelings...It kills him to see that the girl he loves still wants to live that kind of life...GM is underrated and I agree that the press is always trying to ruin his career or life! He will not be destroyed by them! Do they question themselves? His Marijuana habit...to escape them...may be?...to be left alone sometimes....to be free of worries...To all gay or GM haters....don't listen to him! LEAVE HIM ALONE!

[hibbypaul1875]

I love this version.

[sassylatina808]

This version is pretty nice but The police version still the greatest. Love u George!

[pannysymeou]

its so good to b greek george

[AimeeKapp6116]

So truue! ripmp3now..com is the besst website to get this song.

[iris1996]

the version of sting is much better.

but this is also beautiful :D 

[aciddeathadder]

I just made an amazing discovery!! GEORGE MICHAEL IS OPETH!!! Listen to the song, 'Face of Melinda' to see what I mean.

[hibbypaul1875]

love this song. What a beaultiful version. 

[rolybling]

it's a fuckin tune!

George for the love of God, a new album please.

[SuperNancyann43]

this is a beautiful version of the police's song. i like this more. it's more sexier and hits right at your heart strings. George Micheal is one of the best singers of my time. from wham to his solo career. he's right up there with ELVIS.

[mikeinbc]

@SuperNancyann43 Totally agree :)

[MrPanossian]

@SuperNancyann43

Thank you tou are a good musician 

[themrwonderfuls]

i love especially this version of roxanne.

george you are great.

[iNetSpy]

What an absolutely BRILLIANT version of this song... Wow! Talking about putting your own spin on it... George Michael truly one of the greatest talents of our time. I am sorry to say TODAY is the first time I heard this version...

[yugolopez]

In My Town..Amsterdam......

[liam91ful]

he makes it a sad song, as it should be

[hibbypaul1875]

This is a brilliant version of this song. Very sensual, beautiful. Love this song.

[TheNomada86]

El nuevo swing es lo máximo!

[ZobiLaCheum]

His voice sounds like a saxophone in this song. I'd like to know how they made that.

[Nicotida07]

@ZobiLaCheum You're so right! George's voice sounds simply like a beautiful instrument... I really think he did it himself though without any add or aid whatsoever.;-) His voice is a true gift from heaven :-)!

[GruffaloHunter]

@ZobiLaCheum

A great singer with great control, and then overloading the mic preamp a little to get it to distort around the edges, plus a lot of compression and reverb ;-)

[ZobiLaCheum]

@GruffaloHunter You're right with the overloading and the compression but there's also that pinched articulation.

[dirkplummer]

This is nice, brought a tear to the eye.

[Leilan18]

I love this song! You go, George Michael!

[SoundESP]

this song is really adorable!!!

[NeoDio27]

Definitely the best Police/Sting cover ever made...I still don't know which version I prefer, I'm a long life fan of both Sting and George...This one is more depressing while Sting's more "cheery"...I guess it depends on someone's mood.

[arcampbell1]

@NeoDio27 theres nothing cheery about prostitution, great cover, George rocks,

respect.

[ThePrincessmegz123]

Does any one else agree that the name Roxanne is Beautiful??!!

[virginiatebaldi]

Tra le tante cover che ne hanno fatto, questa è una delle rivisitazioni migliori!!! E' incredibile come un'arrangiamento diverso possa dare diverse sfaccettature a una stessa canzone.

[onlythepianoplayer]

Never heard this Roxanne version before from George Michael...."this is a jam!"

[fredkarat]

angels voice.OSS.

[hmngbrd]

Michael could sing 'Mary had a little lamb' and make it sound fantastic, he's amazing!

[arcampbell1]

@hmngbrd lol, and everywhere that Mary went George was sure to go, respect.:O)

[babieyunie1]

it's a very good different version. Lots of people are doing remake. This version is very nice. George has done a very good job to change it, but did not butched it. Definatly not the original..ouff Sting will always be Sting. But this version i like also. Depends of you mood.

[SJPatrik]

Amsterdam 2010 :D

[Roxie1715]

i like the original better. i like the way sting says my name haha. george is good too but just not my style of music.

[fcac20]

Better than the original.

[ajapaneseman]

gay die

[johnjtheoriginal]

he caight the jazzy mood through the rasta look that sting put on it to be ok in that time

good job!

[smellyfish555]

I love George :)

[punedav007]

As a Christian i would say, its always music to be which i am interested in. George Micheal may not be the most perfect among all, but neither are we! His music touches the soul! that is how deep it gets, you see it song after song. His private life is his own! Whom am i say to say something about it! I love his music and will ALWAYS love it. THANK YOU GEORGE FOR ALL THAT AMAZING MUSIC. GOD BLESS YOU AND ALL YOUR FANS!

[yakuza2123]

love georgie... he's probably the best 90's pop male singer, elegant and flashy

[ivyvidall]

musica linda na voz do George adorei...

[dotkaabed]

I perfer this verision than the original. I feel that people sometimesdo not give GeorgeMichael due credit for his amazing vocals.

[niptucklover]

Both version are great...even though the lyrics are the same the mood changes...love it.

[necroshyha]

Both versions are great, if You prefer smooth singing GM's version is better, i like Sting

[MsFoxrox]

Great version of this song!

[gabstrep]

Buena la versión de George. Pero me quedo con la original The Police .

[gabstrep]

gabstrep jajaja !! ... The Police jajaja !!

[Ezkaton]

George Michael is the only one who can do a superb remake of this song, with his seductive voice and also the music is just... perfect.

[rolybling]

I feel sorry for George Michael, he's really in a league of his own, he's got no one to spar with musically these days so his output is undervalued and under-rated. It's sad to say but they will love him when he's gone. too late.

[felishaaaaaaa]

@rolybling agree with the fact that he is underrated, but anyway he is loved by many, many people all over the world!!! Although the press is constantly trying to ruin his life and career, I know that George is stronger and he will continue to write and sing beautiful music in spite of all the haters and homophobes.......

I love him with all my heart :)))

[rolybling]

@felishaaaaaaa Of course you are right, he has millions of fans, no I meant the ones who try to bring him down NOW are the same ones who will be reporting how much of a respected talented artist he was when George pops his cloggs. Just hypocrites.

[felishaaaaaaa]

@rolybling Yes, I see what you mean, you're right. I really hope that he'll live many years, because he is a gift to this world !!!

[marioorange]

@OingoBoingoMe

i dont know if he self-destroys ... i think a vacation in greece will chear him up

..... and relax him :)

[labelloo]

nice

[phillper0906]

As much as I love the original version by The Police,

this is far superior

[johnnymacz281999]

@phillper0906

I agree, this version is way better than the police version. This has a jazzy feel,and it puts you in a different mind set. Simply awesome

[Yup364]

i like this version better... sounds a little... sexier x3

[joao1988pedro]

i only listen to this version. genious

[portocalamecanica2]

Sting said he regrets that he didnt make THIS version:)

[philonetic]

@portocalamecanica2

Yeah he loves the jazz sound.

[frontalni]

I heard in one song the next sentence: " I'm not homofobic, but this sounds so fucking gay."

That is how I would describe his preformance. This song is a strong song with strong emocians, and he sang it like a pussy-- pure diarrhea..... too bad-he has a great voice

[jazzman78190]

sorry, but I'm french and I don't try to understand the lyrics. I just love this song.

[Mikkyun20]

psychodellic

[ctevez10]

GM the LEGEND.......

[cabbeers12]

BIG FAT HAIRY GEORGE WEINER IN MY BUTT

[sloanprince]

Shut the fuck up.George is the best singer ever

[ivrin18]

This version has a more melancholy feel to it.

Very different from any other version I've heard. Beautiful song. :)

[lecochonbleu]

Anyway, I'm so angry most of the time about the co. names that don't seem to stop springing up (now it even seems companies have poised to inflict distress with each new corrupted name) that I didn't mention the video in all my comments.

I was really surprised by this. I'm not a George M. fan & I expected this to be put on, with loads of absurd intonation (there is a bit of that). But it's really nice. Beats The Police original anyday. Lovely arrangement, nice singing, very nice to listen to

[verograham]

I might be an old fart in my 40s, but can I ask? Why do you youngsters type in capital and lowercase letters in one word? I mean, its hard to read. Is that why its done? I Just don't get the younger generation. LOL
