This was during the time after George had been caught, outted, arrested. Both Mary J & Whitney had done these duets with George & the record companies wanted to shelve them. Both ladies put their artistic, million selling feet down & said the songs must be included & videos were made. The solidarity for George & their gay fans was amazing & wonderful.

George Michael was such an exceptional artist. Up there with the best. Not only was he an amazing singer but also a fantastic songwriter. If you are looking for more duets I would highly recommend "As" with Mary J. Blige and of course the classic "I Knew You Were Waiting" with Aretha Franklin. Both incredible.

George Michael is one of the most brilliant singer songwriters ever! ever! ever! He's being inducted to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame this year! He's also done duets with Aretha Franklin, Mary J Blige and Elton John, but his best music is his solo stuff. If you want to hear how clear, crisp, silky, beautiful and brilliant his voice is, you should listen to his songs like One More Try, Father Figure, Kissing A Fool, A Different Corner, I Can't Make You Love Me, Praying For Time, My Mother Had A Brother. That being said, I love his massive bangers like Faith, Monkey, I Want Your Sex, Flawless, Freek, Freedom 90, Outside, Fastlove and more. The other thing to know is that George wrote and produced all his own music. He also plays every instrument on his albums! A f%#king legend he is!

I was just listening to my George Michael playlist today! I'm surprised you're not more familiar with his music since you're from the UK. I grew up in the US and he was one of my first favorites as a kid. You HAVE TO react to "Freedom '90," "Father Figure," "Praying for Time," and his cover of Queen's "Somebody To Love." It's astonishing. One of the best singers/artists ever. I'm so sad he and Madonna never collaborated (although they met several times and knew each other when they were both on the rise in the early 80s).

@joshuayeager3686 Жыл бұрын

This was from Whitney’s Greatest Hits collection. She did a couple duets for it including ones with Deborah Cox and Enrique Ingriques (the latter didn’t really hold up to Whitney but was popular at the time). George has done multiple covers of Stevie Wonder and tons of soul/jazz songs that have given him tons of praise for his vocal abilities. I’d definitely recommend the songs from his Listen Without Prejudice album, especially “Cowboys And Angels” and “Mothers Pride” plus his cover of Wonder’s “They Won’t Go When I Go”

The Faith album was obv great, but Older is after he lost a great love and hits differently. «Jesus to a child» is from that one, and Fastlove, Spinning the wheel, Star people. Other fun songs: Too funky, Freedom, Outside, As (with Aretha Franklin), Freek!, Father figure, Praying for time, Careless whisper, Don’t let the sun go down on me (live with Elton John). The last one lifted Elton John at the time as he was a little in the «weird old star smashing other people» category for a while. Still a star, but lots of eye rolling. The two of them together was amazing 🎉

This song was supposed to be a duet with MJ( the Darkchild Rodney) connection but he declined (Clive prohibited Whitney to record I Just Cant Stop with MJ for fear of overkill in the 80s. In hindsight not such a smart move). George’s vocals were recorded years after Whitney’s. Rodney has Some stories about that plus the video shoot had Some issues as well sinecure Whitney’s Life was in full meltdown during this era. Het, magic was created. Testament to her and his talent. This should have been massieve but alas the circumstance including Clive being ousted at Aristoteles, LA taling over etc. Certainly did not help. Such a shame. Nevertheless, a terrific song and video performance.

I actually forgot he arrested in LA. What's the story with that? I remember it being to do with a sex act on a police officer and he followed it up Outside which I remember kind of brilliantly mocked the whole situation. Was he set up?

@@bridgethegapreactions I don't know if it was a "setup" but they were doing "sting" operations because that public restroom was known for "cruising." People see those types of operations at entrapment because the officers literally hit on people. I think he was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. I think it was just more scandalous than people criticizing him for it. But he was already on the decline in popularity in the US so this was kind of the final nail in the coffin. He never had another hit single here.
