The older I get, the more I appreciate George Michael’s talent. Man, he could sing.
True ❤
Only man who could step in for Freddy and not embarrass himself
Yeah but Elton sung this song much better and hit all the high and low notes with ease.
I love this song by Elton John and George Michael singing this song too.
I can't believe he's gone I loved his voice
If you are 22 years old and singing in front that crowd and Elton john is your pianist you must be a legend.
not to forget THIS LEGEND calls you his friend
Mohamed Aziz Seddik and they are using Paul McCartney’s white piano. This is really good but Queen was the best. 😊

Didn’t notice Phil Collins on drums??
George really commanded the stage. Can’t believe he was only 22
and Ray Cooper had still half head of hair...
Andrew is honestly so happy to see his best friend succeed and come to this moment. No jealousy, just pure joy for his best friend. THAT, people, is what true friendship is.
..maĝìçoo
Sure is…and so hard to find.
THIS 😭 he looked so handsome here too
@@endoraismygma OMG YES!
@@sassypatty2666impossible these days
Goodness. I still think George Michael has one of the best, clearest vocals ever. So Good.
And it will always be that way. Vocals like his are extremely rare.
Him and Freddie Mercury
everr
Totally..George Is An Amazing Singer,Musician..
@@mindmine2110 Yes sir!! Those two are the BEST ever!! Miss them sooo much!!!! 💔😢
Elton preparing to sing and then realizing George was there, is everything to me.
i like their live show i think was in new York.
Yes he was an amazing singing and I have no doubt that he will be a legend to so many artists who love music and can relate to what an awesome and amazing singing he was my oldest son Clifford likes all kinds of music but he grew up listening to our music and he has the most respect and love to play his guitar and it just seems to come to him so natural I am so glad that I raised my children too love and respect the sound of good music
i saw that too lolll he should of belted one out left Mr Micheal at the way sideeeeee
😀
He was like "oh shit, i'm not alone"
I miss you George Michael! Thank you Elton John for dedicating this song to him at Glastonbury 2023 on what would have been his 60th Birthday!
That’s the power of music and love. Both are eternal and those memories will help us through life. ❤
Top❤
I'm here December 2023. R.I.P George Michael❤
Yeh George Michael was the best god rest his soul
I wish that Elton had had George’s vocals from their duet isolated so that he could sing the song with George in concert, like Paul McCartney did with John Lennon’s vocals on I’ve Got A Feeling.
A once in a generation talent, he could write songs, produce them, sing them like no other and he was one hell of a good looking bastard.. Rip George Michael, the world misses you.
You realize elton wrote this song ay?
@@timhick6 Yeah I know that, I'm referring to GM in general, he has quite a catalogue of his own work, as a matter, one of them 'Last Christmas' is actually number one in the charts this side of the pond this week.
@@timhick6you realize Bernie Taupin writes and wrote all the lyrics to Elton’s songs. Elton writes the music. Bernie just got the Rocknroll Hall of Fame award. Elton doesn’t write any lyrics at all.
That’s why jeans and a tshirt and sneakers can never go wrong.
I turned 18 in June ‘85 and can’t believe the privileged of attending LiveAid in the July. Didn’t realise how significant this concert would turn out to be. Now I’m 56 (2024) and keep coming back to these YT clips. Get choked up trying to sing along with George. There’s been nothing like it or George since!
i was 17 years old! in july 1985!
To Sir George Michael, your voice will always be the most justifiable blessing that you gave to us. How can I ever say "Thank you " enough for all that your music, songwriting, and true emotions that was a gift for everyone to get, no one could ever take your place, SIR George Michael you are loved and missed tremendously love you, so much Joan Jaszczult ❤️ 😢
And I was behind the Iron Curtain ....I missed many things but not everything has been lost
@@notyourbiz235Bless you, music can bless our souls.❤❤😂😂❤❤
I turned 17 the week of LiveAid…Remember all of us jammed around the tiny tv. How amazing it must have been to be there live. Will never be another event like it.
Before auto tune, before in-ear monitors, people had Sheer Talent!!
Hes singing Elton's song while Elton is playiing the piano. Thats how talented George is. Two legends. One old and One younger, but both legends.
❤ amazing!!!
Damn! George Michael was so fine. I love his voice. One of a kind like Freddie Mercury, Steve Perry, Michael Jackson, etc. Elton also has a great voice
Foe sure, for sure.❤❤❤
Can you believe it George Michael was only 22 years old here. What a talent what a voice and what a stage presence.
Incredible.
There never has been a better 22 year old artist
Some people are just born to do what they do :)
FalcaoXTZ michael jackson ??
Yup. I was in the 8th grade. I'm 46 now.
*The sun may have gone down on George Michael, but it will forever shine bright in the hearts of millions*
Mr. Sinjin-Smyth Beautiful words well said 👍
Mr. Sinjin-Smyth what a voice
he went down on his own 'son' pedy man
Mr. Sinjin-Smyth 😭
What a beautiful statement--true! Now my eyes are watering, especially after watching Wham! and solo videos of his since last night.
I still love the fact that Andrew and George remained friends after the band broke up. They really had a beautiful friendship. So rare.
Andrew was so happy to sing backup and sit in the shadow….. that’s love.
I get chills! That man had it all...looks, dance ability, song writing, the beautiful voice. I absolutely love Elton John, however, George Michael singing this song...nobody can beat the emotion that he gives it and the way he sings it is just amazing. What a huge loss to the world and women and men everywhere!
You said it beautifully.❤
One of the best live performances of all time. I love how Elton John struggles not to sing the lead.
a *SHAME* US TV audiences didn't get to see it LIVE (right as George started singing they cut away to Crosby , Stills & Nash)
Джордж Майкл лучший , он вообще икона стиля . Он самый лучший .
I agree
Unico,mette i brividi
Who's here in 2020 loving and missing the undeniable talent that is George Michael? 😭🥀💔🙏 R. I. P George 🌹🌹🌹 The sun went down on you far too soon 😭😭 😭 💔
Brilliant👏👏👏
The best...
Powerful voice and presence 💕
Love love love that George Michaels w all my soul! God has a special place for him & his beauty inside out!🎶💞😘💕🌹🎤🎈😍🍷🎼
R.I.P GORGE MICHAEL . MAY 11TH 2020
The way the legend Elton John introduced his friend George Michael was everything and it was a class act🎉🎉.George Michael can sing his ass off🎉🎉.This man has an incredible voice and it's just simply phenomenal 🎉🎉
Beautiful face, great hair, delicious jeans, Raybans, spot on leather jacket, he looks perfect, that's before we get started on his immense talent and superb voice. Swoon
The `80`s summed up in 1 sexy man 😍
Couldn't have put it better Lisa 😑👍
Smart, so smart
You all know he got caught doing in a men's room right? Lol. Great singer, like Elton, Meatloaf, Phil Collins, Roy Orbison and many others. Gone far too young! It sucks. Probably much like The King couldn't handle fame and addition became coping mechanism. Sad. R.I.P. man
@John Weidkunas Sorry, I'm failing to see the connection between a Live Aid music video of a great performer and your first sentence. Who actually cares John? Nobody
Anyone watching during 2021 lockdown music keeps me happy
I do
Hi Linda
Huge voice, owns the stage with 88,000 live listeners. Still the BEST in 2021.
I hope there is a heaven and George is singing there.
There is... And he is 😊
The Talent between the two of these GREATS is Staggering. I Love how Elton Appreciates other people Appreciating his work and Enjoying it SO much.
There was only ONE George Michael!!
I was fortunate to have been at this amazing concert. 18 and just finished sixth form... What a day... What a performance
Me too 😄 We are very lucky to have been at this monumental musical one off 🇬🇧💕
Just a great great day and period of our lives musically and culturally
Oh wow, I would love to go back to those times for some concerts ❤😂
I love queen and live aid wouldnt have been as succesful without them, but this is so much better to me
Can't keep my eyes of those jeans🫣😜... 2024 and Yog is still with us❤️
Hard to believe that George was unhappy with this performance... what a perfectionist he was. I think most of his fans think it was one of his best! I'm still listening 35 years later and not just because it's the anniversary. I just love to hear it and watch the master at work! RIP our dear George ❤.
oh Yog was a perfectionist when it came to his music or his shows ... he absolutely put 100% in his work
first part is not well tuned..then take the power
PFCD I don't think he was seriously unhappy he just thought he oversang yes he was a perfectionist little did he know he is perfection but nothing wrong with wanting to better oneself he always said he always wanted to keep reaching and was never entirely satisfied you need that to be creative that drive and he has it sorry i do not take in past tense about him
The second one he did was on another level mind.
@@ACorn0894 I Agree!
I'm sorry anyone who gave this a thumbs-down does not understand anything about being a vocalist and certainly can't appreciate what this man was able to do with his voice. In addition, George had such charisma that he made stage presence look effortless. His musical talent was in a class all of its own.
Thumbs down no music in their ears .
PFCD. Beautiful words you said about George , he was a musical genius !!!!!
El que ponga el pulgar hacia abajo, no entiende de música
His voice was and is the best of the best!!
Agreed 💯
As of today, 38 years later, the irreplaceable George is inducted to the Rock'n Roll Hall of Fame.... and Bernie Taupin as well... Time stands still....
I believe that somewhere in the world, there are people who feel the same emotions that I feel when I listen to masterpieces like this song.
Who’s watching these Two Icons 🥰❤️🥰 in 2020 quarantine 😷😷😷
I'm listening to it since the beginning of this global mess on todays human kind... All those Live Aid performances are outstanding & timeless! Music history was written those days!
This is the best way to get in the best mood during this difficult times
Yep
Who else is singing along? 🎤 🎶
Don't forget the third icon. Phill Collins! 🙏😍
I still think George Michael is underrated
I totally agree
How do you call underrated? This guy's name was George Michael. He was one of the top rated singers of his Era dude. Underrated my ass.
Of course you do sir.because your an uneducated idiot.
Do yourself a favor.
Shut up.
No frills, just stands there and belts it out. Raw talent is amazing!
That's what you call true talent on that stage , unlike the pathetic excuse for singers we have today...RIP.. George
With love from Moscow!03.04.24.
Raw Natural talent…. RIP George
I have never seen this performance before. I'm in tears. Only 22 here yet fully formed as an artist. Great singer performer writer. A generous person who helped a Lot of people. I recently read that his last ten years were filled with drug use and numerous health issues. I feel so sad that he was so unhappy during his last years. I'm an addict myself manly alcohol so I can understand. He was like whitney houston houston only meant to be here for a short amount of time yet what an impact. Rip George you are loved and missed
One of the worlds best singers and most beautiful men.
He sure does look good in those jeans 😍
I think George Micheals has one of the nicest voices I ever heard from a male singer
April Staggs I always say he is the best friend a pair of Jeans ever had
I think he could wear Mom jeans and look hot!
The one artist that done covers better than the original . The best
Giovanni Goduti
I second that
100% True
56 year old straight father of 4 crying like a baby.... we never knew the beauty we had in our midst.
What an amazing performance. George Michael had one of the most beautiful voices of our time. And the way Andrew looks at him...he's so happy for his best friend.❤
George’s best friend was David Austin..Andrew was a Great Friend but not his Bestie
@@shelleylarose9172 watch the Wham documentary. They said they were best friends. That performance was when he was still in Wham.
I attended Glastonburyin 2023 and elton paid this man the highest compliment georgw michael the most generous human bein that ever lived he gave gave gave very rarly took sadly missed by his fans and myself but we have masterclasses like this love you george 37 years later still listening 24/12/2023 ❤❤❤😢😢
Amen to all!❤😂
Incredible. Elton was so proud of George and you can see it on his face. Elton is fired up brothers and sisters and it's wonderful to see again. When humanity was full force and people really cared.
Also check at the end, he runs to hug GM. Epic performance.
I LOVE his natural excitement.....❤️😁❤️
@@nico_acm Makes me sad that he betrayed George after he was taken
@@aprilgosa5779 How did he betray George ?
es muy hermoso verlos brillar, dos grandes artistas
George Michael was beyond incredible, of course, but I would like to give props to Andrew Ridgeley, his partner from Wham! What a true legend in his own right to hand the reins over to George and give him the space to become the superstar he turned out to be. Andrew knew he couldn’t compete with George. To take up a spot with the backup singers is beyond classy and shows what a great human being he was as well!
and his name is Andrew Ridgeley… just saying
Correct. I apologize for spelling
@@mariannaszell9711 yes correct. I apologize for spelling. I fixed it.
I've read the book
george and me, it's really nice how andrew, among others, describes this performance...
george was the singer and the lyricist
but andrew was the driving force behind Wham
@@utube2902 Oh I don’t know , I like Andrew but without George there would be no Wham , George was more than a singer and a lyricist , he was a producer , performer , and a kind generous person, who made sure that Andrew was set for life , and never had to work for the rest of his life , he was a loyal friend!
George hated this performance of his , he had no idea just how good he was , but look at Eltons joy ,,he knew 😊
OMG… this performance gives me goosebumps!!!
I miss George Michael so much 😢
🥰😭😭😭
RIP
George michael is so beautiful here and such an amazing voice. Elton's piano playing is amazing. Love this performance!
Hi Nance
I watch this at least once every couple of weeks.
🤩🫶🏼🎬🎶
realness!!!!!! raw talent!!! those were the days, no tick Tok, no social media and massive egos. just pure raw talent for an amazing cause!!
The only two that could ever sing this song!
Charlie puth did it now and it was amazing
I was 4 when this came out and now I'm turning 39 on Sunday 31st May 2020. I have heard this song for almost 30 years. I am gonna rock a pair of jeans , white tee and my bomb leather jacket on my birthday. Rest in paradise GM.
Happy Birthday, all the best
I was 5 years old and I still love these two legends’ music! Happy Birthday!!
thank you y'all!! I had a blast!
Elton just holds back to let the young boy do his thing.
Right? So sweet. And a few years later it came full circle. ruclips.net/video/RsKqMNDoR4o/видео.html
If you watch, he was ready to sing at the start of every verse..... 👍❤️👍
G Summy It was so nice to see a giant like Elton not intimidated in any way with what George would do with his song. Both he and Paul McCartney said George was without a doubt one of the greatest singer/songwriters ever. Now that's a compliment because look who it's coming from. PM also said George showed him how to sing his own song, speaking about the Long and Winding Road. A sublime talent in every way.
What a HANDSOME MAN!!! 😱🥰
his vocal maturity from this point i his career, to his performance of this song 20 years later is gobsmacking..
I just like how his jeans fit him.. especially the front view. This guy was really gifted in his music.
We lost a great talent when George Michael died.
George is a legend, he doesn't need Elton John to make him one
Love how he went on stage together with Andrew and then gave this iconic performance 😭
George Michael had the most gorgeous voice ever.
When your Boy can sing,..... Elton Johns smile....Priceless
100% the best singer ever! George was God❤️
😢 Poor George, we miss you so much. Hope you are having a good time wherever you are right now 😉
Best male vocalist. Very very sad that he's gone
Gosh I miss these days the 80's ruled! 💋 I was 18 years old watching this filled with promise and hope for a better day a cross between Madonna and George. 35 years later wondering what happened to the world!? Never though I would out live him. Gosh time sleeping away. I've almost given up myself. 2020/2021 it's like the sun going down on me.
I was lucky enough to be on the front row by Freddys piano …I’m there before it started with a multicoloured umbrella with Wham written on it …..we only put it up during the concert when `George and Andrew came on with Elton John …George sang the first bit the came over and sang in front of me ….what an experience of course Freddy stole the show,Paul young was excellent,Phil Collins ,sting and wow Sade with her sexy sultry voice and stunning black backless top! 🥰
People don’t really know how big of a singer was George back in the day.
1985 fashion was so embarrassing. Then George Michael rolls out with a classic James Dean look and saves the decade.
Exactly..George was pure class..Every outfit was just beyond incredible..❤️
That was the fashion back then!
YES
This wasn’t 1985.
Wow ... is that the best you can do? George Michael is dead.
Today’s singers don’t even compare
Simply amazing
😢 Anytime I listen to George sing, it brings tears. What a voice
George Michael was so beautiful here, just effortless style and so handsome!
Oh George...... whyyyyy??? The world is missing you George - we need you to sing and make everything seem okay again ❤️❤️😥😥😥
Hi Helen
George was depressed
George, Never Forget You!
Thank You So Much!!!!
🎶 🎵 😇
So glad I've lived my teenage years through the 80/90 music was for me the best ❤ George Michael ❤
Me too , 80/90 lovely time ,George amazing ❤
I have seen Elton John two times in Cologne - a very great concert each time
@Ronald Hoerstmann I would have loved to of seen elton
George... missing you, your talent and your voice. 😔
What a Beautiful Voice, we lost an artist when he left RIP
One of the finest, most talented men ever! I love you George. RIP baby. I miss you so very much. ❤💜💖💞💓💓❤💜💖💞💜💜💖💖💞💜💖💖💖💖💖💜💜💜💜💜
RIP beautiful George Michael. Such a voice. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I still don't believe he's gone....
Sadness 😔
George & Michael J … 2 of the Best voices of all time …Thank you… Taken 2 early from us
I miss George 💔
Missing George Michael! He passed away way too young!
Gone too soon ...
OMG! I didn't even know he died! 😢😢😢
far too young is so sad
Kasa Ri he’s an angel of music
bjwhite7210 he died Christmas of 2016 😔😔😔
George was one good looking man, with a big heart...He gave to charities his whole life anonymously..Love him!
I love him, so sad he was hounded by hacks and trolls who only wanted to highlight his 'issues' rather than his talent and generosity
Hi Vickie
I'm not gonna lie.... Really miss George Michael...... Last Christmas tune isn't the same for me at the mo.....it was just nice knowing he was still with us somewhere in the world ... George had a kind heart which I respect ... ✌️
Everyone thinks of the amazing time George sings this and introduces Elton onto the stage, this is just as amazing, George was only 22 here, on stage with an absolute legend!
Missing George Michael! He passed away way too young!
He sure does look good in those jeans 😍
2022 and his voice still sends chills down my spine all the way to my heart
To me he is the best male vocalist ever.
The Late George Michael now. Sad.😢
Same feeling here, diamond voice, May 2023
if I see them two I don't think to them sexual part - music make forget all other differents
@@1510Ronald Then, why mention sexuality? I'm here to enjoy wonderful music and remember those wonderful days (btw I'm a 64 y.old open-minded woman)
Damn George Michael had a set of pipes...
Gott, so eine Stimme UND so ein Aussehen - Gott hat es wirklich gut mit ihm gemeint 😙
“Ladies and Gentlemen, Mr Elton John”....oh, no, he’s already there 😂
I did the same thing where i was expecting the part where he says that lol
Hahahaha brilliant.
Different concert🤣
🤣🤣👌👌
It's August 2022 I'm 50 & STILL in love with this song! Miss you so much George 😢😘😍♥️ you did Elton proud!!
It’s October 2022 and I’m crying, the best of times 😊
2023!
Same, devastated when George died!
July 2023, 57, and still loving and missing George.
This changed my view of George forever. Stunning vocals. Still brings tears and shivers now in 2023!
Two legend Elton and George preforming this beautiful, sensitive and magical preformance of this beautiful and sensitive song. Amazing preformance 🎼🎶💯👋♥️ thank You so much. Greetings from Aleksandra, Zagreb Croatia 🇭🇷❤️ 😊
They really got everyone to do Live aid. No one said no. And the quality of artists in this time. my lord, what a time to be alive.
Michael Jackson ?
Oh how we miss you George 😔
Live Aid was a spectacular event. I can't believe I took those events for granted.
This is the performance where he came of age as a vocalist. Hard to believe he'd only just turned 22.
Only famous person who I cried over when I heard he had died, George was my school girl crush and then grown woman fan. I miss him so much, always amazing performances. He was too genuine for the shitty fake world we have become.
Gosh he was just lovely.
We are all robbed of incredible talent, this is beautiful.
Wow! What a voice! I miss you George Michael! You're a legend.
I’m a 33 year old scally and this makes me cry 😢
I was at Live Aid, George had the most amazing voice, another one we lost far too young, thank God for real music in the world before political correctness ruined everything
How did the crowd react to Diana and Charles? She was too good for that guy
The only thing that is good with my generation is that we have RUclips and stuff like that so we can dream back to the times when music was something more
So agree
God I loved Elton. He was my ultimate fantasy brother. Inspired poetry came out of my soul!
Exactly. Today's music is cancer
It's not the only thing good, don't forget about the racism, homophobia, sexcism in others generation, on that our generation reallyade something great
@@anajoaomartins7292 how’s that good
I was a teenager in the 60's so witnessed the genius of the Beatles, but when l saw George on top of the pops in 1982 l knew instantly l was going to witnesses that genius again, and of course I was right, a truly talented man with the voice of an angel, when George sings (doesn't matter if it's his song or a cover) you feel the emotion it goes right through to your soul.its heartbreaking that he's no longer with us.l doubt l will ever witness that genius again in my lifetime. I can't get my head round the 2k people who disliked this l feel sorry for them.
❤️I LOVE YOU GEORGE MICHAEL❤️Kisses to heaven❤️
