HARDtalk with George Michael (Part 3/3)

Tim Sebastian can interview George anytime as far as we are concerned! He brings out the best in George, giving him no time to come up with some lame soundbites, forcing him to show more of himself. And he does! Brilliant and astute interview.

Posting it here because we couldn't find it on BBCWorld's Channel, unfortunately.

The more interviews I watch of GM, the more I begin to like him.

i dont believe mr.sebastian did his homework on george. i realize im restating whats already been commented on but saying hes only speaking out for self-promotion is ridiculous. george doesnt really need to promote his work in my opinion his massive talent speaks for itself and pretty much stands alone in an ocean of music that is so totally irreleveant to anything meaningful that its truly sad. george has always spoken out on his beliefs i suppose maybe only true fans noticed it back then

George Michael is completely correct about the majority of 'artists' in the charts today.

@bjornsiborgsi hahahah!  your right!!

Goerge really kept himself in the fight here so to speak, he would not let that interviewer get to him and wear him out.

As for George's assessment of the music industry amongst the war debate, it was incredibly spot on and real. Especially the self-destructive behaviour of USA youth culture.

We don't have "artists" that sing from their own experience or hearts and minds. We have is hired performers, actors, pretenders acting as "pop" or music stars.

Isn't it funny how GM continues to be so far ahead of his time. His fight with Sony. This war. The man is a genius and visionary in his own right yet continues to be castigated for living HIS life in a way that so many see as perverted or worthy of reproach. We'll look back and see just how courageous he was and not just "the fag" in the "...Before You Go Go" video. When I meet him (AND I WILL) I will definitely thank him for his contributions to pop culture AND society.

GM exploits the true character of the interviewer and this pathetic round table. The questions projected to GM shows the lack of quality and tim ultimately does not care about the points of view GM has from politics, social awareness, and/or music. I give so much credit and respect for GM keepin' his composure and answering intelligently with a lot of wit and humor. GM...you is a bad mutha'fucka! =)

Respect from the Bay Area (SF)
