amazing performance, but have to say, whoever that backup singer is, she does a FANTASTIC job! wow, i'd love to hear this in surround sound

[tlcchristopher]

Chris Cameron on kybds.....Andy Hamilton on Ewie.......a sort of electronic woodwind instrument!

[Manu1962able]

George Michael makes me feel alive in this cold world.

[nelsonmontenuevo]

Che espectacular este tema....re melancolico pero excelente....

[tazarcos]

Best male voice ever

[Tamisings]

The woman singing with George is the one and only Lynn Mabry - her voice ALWAYS gives me chills!!

[rickprive]

@Tamisings Thank you for supplying her name. I have been looking all over for her name. She sings this song so beautiful...it really does give you chills. So much better than Jevetta, Barbra, or Celine. Just wonderful. Again, thanks for the name. Have a wonderful day.

[cablorican2000]

the most hauntingly beautiful song ever recorded.

[08maricuca]

Dear George...I'm calling you.. please start writing songs again..I'm waiting.

[marnie45]

Words are just not enough to describe just how good this song is, George sings it by far the best. I was lucky to be at this concert many years ago, I tell you, there were grown people around me with tears in their eyes. LOVE IT LOVE IT.

[MENTEseVERA]

THANK YOU VERY MUCH..I DO REALLY LOVE HIS VOICE AND THIS LIRIC IS MARVELOUS!!!

[Palmeriracing]

Damn I have had this song on C.D. for years and someone posted this song with Celine Dionne singing it, and it here is with George singing it live! Love it! Thanks for posting!

[Bapy50]

¿Quién canta con George?

[happymike44]

Simply magical when he sings it reminds me of Bagdad Cafe and the deserts of California.

[clareyfairy333]

total chillout....

[mcgantos]

She is  Javetta Steele

[rickprive]

@mcgantos This is not Jevetta Stone. This is Lynn Mabry.

[rickprive]

@mcgantos This is Lynn Mabry and not Javetta Steele

[rickprive]

Reageren op deze video... This is Lynn Mabry and not Ms. Steele 

[lorrieslee]

Absolutely stunning........

[alfturbo]

I love George Michael and this song makes me go out of my mind!

[liellibg]

Amazing song.. Parallels today with the exodus from Egypt. Weather a bagabon walking down some unknown road to who knows where, A prostitute that just cant do another john. An Egyption parent crying out to God from the death of a frist born son. All have walked this road and can relate to this cry. When our dreams no longer glitter, and become more like hell. We all walk down this lonely road crying out to God. God is also crying out to us. Beautiful,beautiful, soulful song. All can relate to

[NuDecade]

I love what you wrote here! It is sooo true and I can sure relate to it!!!!

[chup1972]

no one is bigger then GM... the way he sings a song like this.. with so much feeling.. he touches me everytime.. cant wait and hope that he´ll return to denmark and play for us again

[Yorgos72]

back up singer Lynne Mabry. I don't know why she was not on 25tour. She was great to me.

[layneforever6702]

Amazing, as usual. <3

[renamunich1]

one of the best performances of a song ever. who is the woman? she is phantastic too! Thank you so much for posting. It is one of my most beloved songs.

[rickprive]

@renamunich1 The woman is Lynn Mabry

[schebu]

This (promo)recording is from one of the Wembley concerts in March 1991 (not New York 25/26. August 1991). It was filmed with others Unfortunaly he never released this material offically on video. Just "Don't let the sun..." was released and recorded in USA (not Wembley). Tonight is also recorded but very very hard to find.

[MsFelomina]

Hammer immer wieder tränenreich!!!

[machargs123]

what a singer i love him

[michaelandy38]

you mean 100 million plus albums

[hairybackbuddy]

george michael has always been underrated. Here he is again redefining the song so beautifully

[realbref]

over 80 million albums sold in the whole world is quite good for an underrated artist !!

[SomaliRose]

I love love love this song it's officially my favourite song. I love you but I wish you sang Desert road from vegas to nowhere Dear friends So dear friends your love has gone Only tears to dwell upon I dare not say as the wind must blow So a love is lost, a love is won Go to sleep and dream again Soon your hopes will rise and then From all this gloom life can start anew And there'll be no crying soon I love that part ..... I wish you (GM) could sing that for Micheal Jacksons tribute.

[0550934188]

wooow wooow woow amazing GM i luv u man you r the best !!

[grumpybear23]

OMG George will always be my favorite. So beautiful. So haunting. I love him.

[PatiuscaMaria]

amazing!!

[NYROCKER11]

Oh I love this song! Gorgeous indeed!

[timjharrison]

Why is George afraid to carry the chorus? He's got the voice.

[xaositectz]

you wouldn't possibly believe that he is afraid of such a thing would you? i rather think he wanted to make the song into a dialogue-like song. guy sings, girl replies. i'm pretty sure there is more concept in that than george being afraid to hold a tune.

[culpritto]

where's that gig at?

[hikonejo]

According to my research:

"Recorded Live At Wembley Arena by Chris Porter."

The actual "day" is unkown, but it was either March 19, 20, 22, or 23, 1991 during the Second Leg of his Cover-to-Cover Tour.

I personally saw him at the Tokyo Dome on March 9, 1991 during the First Leg of his Cover-to-Cover Tour and I saw him perform this song.

It was GREAT!

[hotgeorge44]

chills upon chills!!

[melodiesunshine1]

amazing!! george you are the man!! i love you!!

[ClaudiaMoedersheim]

Very, very nice!!! Love the way Yog sings here with Lynn Mabry. The man is BRILLIANT!!!

[ALEPN1]

Yes, I can hear you...What a wonderful song... In fact, my soul hears it ...

[timhewison]

they are both brilliant :-)

[catfigura]

The perfect duo. Every time that I hear the version of this song, it touches my soul.

[wandy91]

george  the best

[joshtj44]

you guys are great. Nice to see people who can recognize true artists. GM is one of the greatest singers of all time.

[25Livemen]

@joshtj44 yes gm is a true legend his music make me strong :D

[NYROCKER11]

None can do this song better than the two people here.

There needs to be a thank you for the song writer, who actually wrote this song. A timeless masterpiece...

[NYROCKER11]

A timeless master piece, no one else should really try to do.

The songwriter who wrote this should really be the one to thank... None of these performers wrote it..so kudos to the writer...

[Ninha1983]

amazing voice .i love him come back brazil for the last show again!

[catfigura]

hauntingly beautiful.

[catfigura]

his soulful vocals are a gift that he shares with the world

[PrisonerOfParadise]

He is just PERFECT

[NuDecade]

This is such an awome song. It has inspirted me to write my second novel. A change is a coming.

[gerardismyman69]

omg simply amazing he is so talented its crazy its so beautiful it sometimes puts tears in my eyes<33

[mrdjjames]

Love this concert and this time for George.

[mrdjjames]

I agree. This is the best version of this song as far as I am conserned. This concert cover to cover was his best also.

[LadyGodiva2672]

Looks like the cover to cover tour which I was at at the Garden 17 years ago....... saw him again at the Garden last monday for 25live....... the man is magic, pure magic. As awesome as ever!!!!!!

[mrdjjames]

He stayed away too long.

[LadyGodiva2672]

Most certainly did - unfortunately if I heard corrrectly 25Live is his last tour ..... hoping it's not. Would love to be in Coppenhagen on 8/30 for the last show of this tour - supposed to be huge and longer, special thank you to fans over there ..... Damn

[RudiNosferatu]

... I love this song.

A smile crosses my down trodden face.

[PrisonerOfParadise]

George is the best!!! Magic song...

[lal723]

Simply amazing! What a gift he has.

[dressy]

thank you,George!

i love you

[undefinible]

It's sublime...absolutely sublime!

[tryxr4kids]

Holy crap, a high-fi! Old school. ;)

[PaulaPinto35]

George Michael the greateste singer of all times!!!! I simply adore him!!!! Thank you for sharing.

[christianenord]

Très belle chanson chanté par deux voix magnifiques

[luciferarnold]

i thank God for all people, why? you might ask because God lives in me. i love you.

[bbrose10]

I love the emotions that they evoke out of me. Simply amazing. God bless George's (and her's) voice.

[1417008]

i want her to sing this song alone, i am not dising george i just like the way her voice makes me feel.

[rickprive]

@1417008 I agree with you 100% her name is Lynn Mabry. What a voice. I like her better than the original Jevetta Stone from Bagdad Café

[luciferarnold]

wonderful song by the two of them.

[ChrisDilks]

The only person better than George Michael is Freddie Mercury. George couldn't touch him. However, nobody could, so there's nom shame in that!  George is unbelievably good in his own right! Superb!

[lemmedasker]

spot on. mercury was a god among ants.

[Michaella81]

Everytime I see him or just hear his voice I assure that his is absolutely inimitable. I've never heard anyone better than him. He is unique. My love forever.

[TheLilEconomist]

Awesome ! They sound amazing ...

Une merveille.

[karol1302]

George is the amaziest singer ever i have heard...thx for touching our souls.

[MNGirlyGirl]

Ms. Steele is perfection on this song! She released the original from movie Bagdad Cafe. Great flick! I saw it back in the early 80's and still love it.  Very haunting yet hopeful song.

[rickprive]

The woman singing here is Lynn Maybree and not Jeveta Steele who sang the original song in the movie

[Stryder94]

I thought it was Oleta Adams that sang this song with George Michael?

AMAZING SONG NONETHELESS

what incredible talent used to its every peak, glad you lived then, glad you live now george!

[mrdjjames]

If she had that would be too much! whew..

[rickprive]

@MNGirlyGirl This is not Ms. Steele, but Lynn Mabry singing. Ms. Steele sang the original for the movie

[blakey275]

He is the master at live performance....nobody can touch him.

[franshart]

A-MAZE-ING!

[THEOELINE]

MAGNIFIQUEMENT MERVEILLEUX !!! Merci de me faire partager ce bijou !

[sjogy]

great song and video thanks for sharing

yvonne

[maxlazar]

Superb acest cantec

[sharob1958]

I hope george micheal will release this as a single

[jwpbass]

sharob1958- this song and 4 other songs appeared on a EP in the mid 90's - "Five Live". Along with "Somebody to Love" with Queen and "These are The Days of Our Lives" with Lisa Stansfield and Queen. The duet with Lisa sounds great. More than likely it's out of print. Good luck.

[sanjuro4]

Ha, I had that EP! I've probably still got it somewhere. I remember this song from it. These are the days.. was pretty good as well. Ahh, I had it on cassette, those were the days.

[pismo10]

Yes this exact version was on the George, Queen,lisa stansfield, cd "Five Alive"

[liliAxL59]

tu es spendide George...comme d'habitude!

[lawham]

Amazing man, amazing voice, could never state that enough. Love Lynn Maybree too. Powerful lyric, people need to just be real like that. Friendship and communication can be so powerful when all parties involved put forth the effort. Great song.

[dolleee]

ohhhhhhhh ohhhhhhh ohhhh thank youuuuuuuu

[sulinlin]

IIIIIIII am callllllling youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu....

[Silverwings1991]

This is one of my favorites for me personally. I wonder what year this was? I thought this may be early 90's.

[BobStone1907]

One of my faves too. It's from the film "Bagdad Cafe" filmed in 1987 and released in 1988. I recently visited the location in Newberry Springs, CA and posted a tribute video on my YouTube site at /bobstone1907.

[quiverfull]

Isn't Lynn Mabry incredible as well on this song? Absolutely flawless!

[sandraaster]

Amen!

[divasilica]

waouh ! I was looking for this video since years ! thanks for posting !
