what a voice! George can cover anybody

[Schalkelinho]

I guess, it's a matter of taste, if George Michael is better, or if Stevie Wonder is better. Both have written great songs and have special and great voices. I don't think, George Michael have sang this, because he want to show that he's better than Stevie Wonder. Stevie Wonder is an idol of George Michael, and so it's maybe more a kind of a hommage, I think.

Lets face it.....it's just a magnificent song from a magnificent SW album! Shows how good it is when other artists want to sing it.

I like Stevie Wonder and I like George Michael. I think we get too caught up with this need we have to decide who's version of a song is better. That said, the writer and original performer of ANY song worked with a blank canvas and created something from nothing. A remake is just that. How can they be judged equally when the remake artist has the original to draw from? In my book, the original artist ALWAYS gets extra points.

Don't forget that Stevie wrote the song and played most of the instruments in his original.

[champollo]

is his voice from this planet ?

@ClaudiaMoedersheim I totally agree. When George does a cover, the dedication to replicate it..and bring it up a notch is there. He blew Micheal McDonalds cover out of the water...and Stevie..as much as I love his original version, George killed it.

Cheers.

What you say about Stevie is true his songs are very complex for the average singer to try and sing but what you say about George's songs repeating simple chords and using a computer to make his voice sound good is utter bullshit. If you knew ANYTHING about music you'd know that George's own songs are also very complex and DIFFICULT for other singers to sing. Vocally he's considered one of the greats, he's right up there so just chill homie.

why do you people need to compare? they are both musical gods yo...
