no way, not cheesy. That is tremendous talent as a producer, writer, singer ....you name it.
Didn't write this one though!
Nobody can dispute his talent for singing and performing, that's for sure!
@@TFKmewsic he wrote this one what are you talking about?
he wrote with his friend and Andrew Ridgeley (he is credited on this song btw) and it was originally a Wham! song, but he released it as a solo too.@@c.a.d.w.a5573
She called this cheesy? The man was a genius, this is a classic 👌
True
George Michael is not a guilty pleasure he was/is a bona-fide legend, nothing to feel guilty about. And also his music is not cheesy.
I agree. Well, somebody’s cheese is somebody else’s whipped cream I guess. I agree with you. She also called “endless love” by Diana Ross and Lionel Richie “cheesy”… I guess anything that she is embarrassed to like or makes her blush that she will call that.
@@Rosannasfriend cheesy is good for everyone, even Lactose intolerants.
Who doesn't enjoy cheesy anyway. It is an essential part of the dairy food group. Everything is better with cheese on it. Also bacon but that is part of the meat food group.
I was shocked to hear GM described as cheesy also! I guess if you only know Wham and a few later singles? By the end of the 80s sax solos were a cliche but this song was a massive hit for George Michael and rightly so. Best she listen to his solo albums especially the first three starting with Faith.. I think he was the finest male vocalist of the 80s and 90s.
I was thinking the same and about to comment that his music isn’t cheesy. He was a legend and so talented. He wrote that song at 17 years old and on a bus! RIP yogurt
He is not cheesy just soulful and sings from the heart . best wishes sis and family
?
His voice is like pouring cream , so smooth, I've always thought he sings without the effort. Voice of an angel. He's my favourite singer...EVER!! #1
His take on Somebody to love with the rest of Queen was phenomenal!
I always think to myself if they had made him the lead singer would his life be different and be alive today.
I recall hearing or reading that George came up with that sax solo while riding a bus at boarding school when he was just 17-years old! One of the most iconic song moments of the 80's if not music on the whole... at 17! WOW!
Darque, you are right. In an interview he stating he was boarding the bus because he was going to ride it all day long since he was bunking off school for the day. As he entered the bus the sax line popped into his head. That was the birth of the song. How amazing is that!!
Truly an amazing man with amazing talent.
At 17, my biggest achievement was winning a local CS competition XD
He wrote the song together with Andrew, the wrote separate parts and found out they could fit together
Andrew helped him immensely with the sax part. ❤❤
Seeing George Michael so young and hearing this song for the first time in about 30 years, got me nostalgic for that era, and a little sad, knowing he's gone now (as is that era).😢
You haven't heard this song for nearly 30 years? Have you been living under a rock? 😉
@@rolybling Give or take a millenium. 😉 I don't listen to the radio and Wham is not on my playlist. I'm living under a classic rock, so.......
@@taylortyler1867 I think he means it is played everywhere Grocery Store, Malls
@@stephanieparido3790 Yeah. I probably _HAVE_ heard it a few times, but I don't usually pay any attention to music I hear in stores. In one ear, out the other type situation. What I meant was, I have never _intentionally_ listened to that song. I'm more of a Van Halen, Rush type of guy. Wham was OK, just not my cup of tea.
Carry the era through your life no matter how time changes
Just a phenomenal singer, and also one of the best songwriters of the last 50 years. His album Listen Without Prejudice is fantastic.
It is but I've always thought Faith was his best. Fantastic album
I think a lot of people besides George's contemporaries and his die-hard fans don't realize what a gifted songwriter he was.
All his albums are amazing. Older is my favourite; just goes to show that it's hard to choose a fav.
Listen Without Prejudice is out of this world. When someone ask me about the greatest album of all time, I always have to consider LWP along with a small selection of 3-4 other albums.
@@kimmern999 I completely agree about LWP. No wonder it out sold Faith in pretty much the rest of the world. That album went to number 1 when it came out in 1990. I have the original and I also bought the remastered anniversary collector's disc when it was released on the 27th anniversary. It was re-leased and also went straight to number 1. Fastest selling album for a re-release in UK history. I guess that says it all. George was a one of a kind. I love how you explain is technique. I enjoy listening to you speak about your signing knowledge. Thank you for that.
George Michael’s UNplugged was one of the best sessions ever ! He surrounded himself with an amazing group of singers on that one as well ❤️
Not so cheesy when you consider that he's got a magical voice and that counts for a hell of a lot. he's one of those self taught guys that no one can touch even with years of lessons.
So true, God given talent!!
Yeah dude. I'm a rock and metal guy and don't find George Michael cheesy. Great voice & had a lot of great songs. I grew up in the 80's and loved this album in my preteen years. Still appreciate singer of it to this day.
His performance of "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me" at Live Aid with Elton John was something special to behold
Absolutely beautiful!
George Michael was amazing. I didn’t really appreciate him until after he was gone though.
George Michael/Aretha Franklin, I Knew You Were Waiting is FIRE!!!
I am a heavy metal fan, and it is quite obvious that George Michael could sing very well. It´s just a shame that his life ended in the same way as so many musicians throughout time.
Ok but why did u have to mention that ur a heavy metal fan?
@@Soggersnuggets I did so because metal fans aren't normally listening to George Michael's music.
@@Soggersnuggets Why not? What's the harm?
@@ESUSAMEX Listen to Seether-Carrless Whisper, its a cover
@@ESUSAMEXidk about that. Lots of metal fans, especially musicians, will listen to a broad range of music in order to become better musicians.
Mom’s all time favorite song…RIP, Mom!
Thanks Beth. George was amazing and such a wonderful singer and songwriter. I wouldn't say it was a guilty pleasure at all because anyone who understands talent understands the immense talent of this wonderful man, who had his demons but showed his greatness in music and in many aspects of his life, esp the generosity he had. The live versions of Careless Whisper on Wham! Live in China and Rock in Rio are especially fantastic.
He was a GREAT singer! He KNEW how to show emotion without overly "show-boating". I wish singers would take cues of him rather than those who are more "histrionic".
Such an epic talent. He is truly missed... What a great reaction to this video. You should also do a reaction to (Everything she wants) when he was still in Wham. Andrew Ridgley sings backing vocals and it shows that he could sing on a professional level as well. :)
Andrew does not sing backing vocals on that song. He just lip syncs to George’s vocals in the video. Everything She Wants is one of the Wham! songs where George did everything himself. I’m sure he sings bg vocals on other songs though
One of the greatest pop singers....EVER! RIP
Iconic voice. Would've loved to hear his voice as he aged
Just listen to him at his last live concert. I believe he was right at 49 -50, when he performed at the Palais Garnier in Paris. The Symphonica European tour was spectacular. His voice aged like fine wine. Stunning.
@@rosamiller8687 Spot on. Symphonica is off the charts.
Definitely isn’t cheesy. Just a great song and artist through and through
George Michael was a great singer. The way he didn't over sing, he accentuated the instrumentation, and wrote great songs
He was 21 when it came out, and not even 20 when this was written. So, so good.
Pretty sure he wrote this when he was 16 or 17. He didn’t connect to it as time went on, but he sang it at concerts because he knew his fans wanted to hear it. Of all his Wham! era songs he was most proud of Everything She Wants.
If cheesy means "sings from the heart and has emotion and soul" then we need more cheesy singers like this these days. :P
I mean if George Michael is cheezy, then at least he's triple A Gouda cheezy. Just one of the greatest imo. Moreover, I think its about time to react to good old Barry Manilow. Could it be magic for example, but Mandy should also do the trick. Have fun anyways! (And if not, Duffy-Warwick Avenue should also be on the list)
Very, very bad take by Beth. GM is one of the greatest artists ever, and I'm not even a massive fan
What voice! What makes him so smooth and special that he never had hidden his joy, vulnerability and scars while singing!
Well... Cheezy isn't the adjective to be used on this incredible artist/vocalist. I became a fan of his in My early 30's... I remain one.... 30 years later. 😉

1) I've LOVED George Michael since I first heard him back in the 80s.
2) THIS song has a very special place in my heart and my memories. I LOVE IT!
3) I've never once thought of GM as a guilty pleasure. Ever since I got his album Listen Without Prejudice, I was hooked. That dude CAN SING!
4) It's really sad what happened to him and how his life unfolded. I so wish he was with us today. I miss him and his music terribly.
5) RIP George and thanks for all the great songs and memories. You will never be forgotten.
Love your analysis Beth. I love how you hear and share all these technical details with us. Really adds to my love of music.
I've always wanted you to react to this! Thanks for the treat, Beth!
One of George Michael's very best vocals in a career filled with timeless classics...He had a voice so smooth that even whipped butter was jealous. Sadly, He got caught up in all the trappings of being a global icon, which ultimately led up to his demise. His music will be admired as long as there are people to listen to it....RIP George
"Praying For Time" is my favorite. His voice is so amazing!
Fantastic singer.
That’s just the best slow forever ! George have a own technical voice ! Just a awesome lyrics ! When George take a mic it’s like to be in a other world ! So much love about this music
Nothing cheesy about this song. It is soo good.
No reason for it to be a guilty pleasure as everything about it is high quality
Absolutely love this man , his voice is healing .
Hi Beth, I really enjoyed your reaction regarding one of my favorite singers, merry christmas and happy new year in advance!!!
He was a superb composer, artist, and performer. There was no gimmick or trickery assigned to his songs.
He wrote this song when he was 17! Great voice. My ex-wife said he was best eye candy in the early 80's. The sax player reminds me of Sade's sax player; wonder if it was the same guy?
Such a great song! I’m glad Seether updated it for a new audience a few years back.. also you just said guilty pleasure, there’s no such thing no need to be guilty..
Seether is trash, and that "update" is an abomination of banality and derivative goofiness.
I used to have a HUGE crush on George Michael....It's so sad that he passed away too soon. RIP George.
wow...love it..george michel..great singer..songwriter.......thnks.. bethroars....❤️❤️❤️
I am about the same age of George, so I grew up with his songs and this song is my favorite song until now. He was really an awesome story teller. If you want to hear a beautiful song about a broken heart then George is the Master. He weeped, wailed, and cried so beautifully with his high yet soft voice. No other male singer can do that.
Just love a good saxophone solo!❤️
I love your Channel beth! Thank you and keep up the good work!
Hey girl, George is NOT cheesy. Absolute icon!
First off, love your reaction and I am a huge fan of George Micheal and in particular Careless Whisper and even more particular the version he performed in China in 1984!
That being said, the version you watch miss, is a playback from the original song that is being played in the official clip! He didn't sing live because I know in which program he was performing here, which is TopPop. This is a dutch program I know very well as a child (I am dutch myself) and it was very popular in the 80s and all performers always playback! 🙄👎
The real live performance and a much better version would be for you the 1984 version of Careless Whisper he did in China! Also the version he sings together with Smokey Robinson the song Careless Whisper is 100% live and special because of the double voices. 👍
Great reaction Beth. Your hair looks amazing! San Diego sends love ❤️
Praying for Time is one of the best singles of the early 90s. To this day it strikes awe in me when I listen to it. I would love a follow up reaction of GM performing that song.
George Michael always got dismissed as "cheesy pop", but he was actually super talented. He wrote all his own songs, played instruments, could dance and sing beautifully AND he was gorgeous to look at!
Honestly think he wasn't taken seriously because he was so "pretty"...but his songwriting craft is impressive. Modern pop singers don't write their own stuff...but he did it all.
No one who knows music would call GM cheesy. No one. Such a terrible take by someone who should know better
@@jonperans i didn't say "cheesy"! Beth did! Repeatedly in this video!!!
I am a diehard George Michael fan and don't think he is cheesy at all...i was making a retort to Beth!
@@MaleOrderBride i know, haha. I was referring to Beth. She, as a vocal coach, should know this is playback and that GM isnt cheesy. Terrible take by her
He touch my Heart so deep!
Very good singer. So smooth.
This man was a gift for us ! he sing with a natural voice ! i'm fan since 1984, therefore from this song!
Hi Beth!, Great video! Love seeing you move or dance a bit! I love me some Wham !! , ala. George Michael!!
Show some respect this man was a legend no one can sing like this today this was the music of an era. Everyone wanted to sing like him . Tell me anyone that can cover this today with the raw emotion! The control is impeccable!
There's an ultra rare performance of Club Tropicana that Wham! performed live in Japan (NOT the Top of the Pops version) really early on, but the quality is great, and there's zero backing vocal tracks. It's purely live and you get to hear how he sounded when he was really young. I highly recommend checking it out.
Thanks for your reaction - always a pleasure to listen to BUT this time I just have to protest, "cheesy", "guilty pleasue"....No no no. Yes maybe if George Michael was only Careless Whisper - a song he wrote at the age of 17! But he grew up you know, and if you love him as much as you say you do you ought to know about some of his other work with amazingly beasutiful and MATURE lyrics. Everyone has the right to their opinions, so usually I wouldn't bother to write a comment, but I would hate it if a younger generation who listen to your reaction would somehow be made to believe that listening to George Michael's music is cheesy, NO, far from it. I love George Michael too and I want his music to live on for generations to come. Beth, seeing as you love him, do yourself a favour and listen to his album Older for example. You'll get an hour of absolute musical pleasure, and then you can discard that rather ignorant statement about his music being cheesy for good. It is a win-win for you and us all.
Kay O'Day- excellent comment.
I agree. George Michael was an extraordinary talent. No need to associate his legacy with such a derogatory term.
(Although- full disclosure here - I would not object to Wham being described as "dairy-like"). 😉 ✌
My own favourite Sax solo is in Baker Street, but this one is amazing too.... This song was played EVERYWHERE when it came out...
LOOOOOOOOOVE George Micael!!!
love your reaction mam Beth Roars.❤️❤️💗💓💗
I was smiling all through out this video. George Michael is one heck of a technical singer with a very unique tone. Sadly often overlooked in preference of big belters like.
loved him
A legend
A few years ago, my best friend of the time, a woman named Kim, and I went to the Amp in Tampa for a Nickelback show.
Well, she wanted a Tshirt. The line was long. I was concerned we would lose track of each other, so I waited outside of the crowd.
The opening act had a cover of "Frozen Whispers"and I missed it!
The things you do for love.
I don't know when that song was first released, but it's still my favorite song when I'm lonely ✨
Listen to the way he says "I've" been given. His voice goes into this incredible smooth falsetto he sounds exactly like Barry Gibb then it drops right back down to his normal range.
Our world has become so jaded that we can't enjoy perfection unblemished, unless it's depressing yells. Embrace the careless whisper by George, no apology needed.
I'm just the right age that if I were an actor my secret trick to making myself cry would be to imagine this song in my head. It's so powerful.
I so miss him
First video or yours I am seeing🤗. I will be spending the next few hours going through others🤣
Great song
One of the best pop songs of all time
This guy was a music lover who could pick out phrases and put them together in his own way.
It's so crazy that he's been dead for like 5 years. I'd swear he was still alive. "Mandela Effect."
RIP.
Hey, I love your videos!! Is it just me or does anyone else think when Beth says “nice”, I’m like “oh, thank you” (cuz I’m singing too) lol
It's still astonishing he wrote this classic at 16.
I think some of Wham’s music might be “a bit cheesy” but not George Michael as a solo artist.
...end he wrote this (music and lyrics) at 19.
Later one of his long time friend struggle with money, so George add the guy as a "co-writer" so every money he get from this (which is....a LOT) half gose on to the friend.
George Micheal was one of a kind. Well he was the only guy that Queen asked for to go on with them after Freddy died. So...yes.
He was one of a kind amazing talent, left us with 4 albums, yes 4 and become a legend.
Great critique.
I can’t over how young he was here
George was very talented and could actually sing. He is not auto tuned like singers now. He was never cheesy. Miss you George
Can you do a Paula Cole breakdown of Where Have All the Cowboys Gone? Love the channel!
Yep. I've always like Him too.
8.00 to 8.20...always have to hold my tears at that part.
Nunca dejemos morir esta canción. ¡Por favor! 🙏🏼
most iconic saxophone opening ever.
To add..., his phonetics and modulation are impecable.
I don´t know if to classify it as meticulous or fastidious, but just as the attention to detail in the song you see the same in the camera framing, the lighting, the hair, the makeup. etc
Definitely do Everything she wants!! From WHAM!!
Talking about cheese, have you ever done one of Jon Secada? I think you'll like him
I hope that you can react to Renaissance, sometime. Their music is so Gothic and ethereal. And Annie Haslam has the most amazing voice. A five-octave range.
Awesome
He has the perfect male voice. I love it so much. RIP
Great song 👍
Seether did a cover of this and it's SO GOOD
It's aight
No
Holy crap! HAHAHA! I was 22 when this came out. I was recently discharged from the Air Force and heard this everywhere I went, including airports. FYI, I’m now 60. 🤣
Beth, please listen to his "I can't Make You Love Me". Live.
Hello Beth...I like your reactions...I have seen your reactions to Dimash, the best singer of the world and I know you love to react to amazing singers... That's why I want you react one new stunning singer...The passion and dedication when interpreting a song can only be compared with the person who has influenced him to sing leaving everything on stage: His idol, the queen, the incomparable Lara Fabian...Lara is the best female singer and performer of the world (for Dimash and me)...She is a incredible lyric soprano with a beautifull voice and a great vocal range, plus a incredible breath control, which is one of the things that Dimash admires the most about her...She speaks 5 languages and sings like in 12 languages....That's why she is the inspiration for Dimash and several singers around the world...You can see on RUclips covers of her songs made by singers of the stature of: Dimash, Floor Jansen, Morissette Amon, Gabriel Henrique, Katrina Velarde, Cakra Khan and others...Please react to her songs, all masterpieces, in LIVE versions, because Lara is more impressive when she sings live, so you can see why she is the idol of Dimash...Try to do it in this order and almost all songs are from the same Lara’s concert “From Lara With Love” in Montreal 1999, one of her best works: 1) Je Suis Malade (Singing in French)...2) Caruso (Singing in Italian)...3) Je T'AIME (2002 Live version in Paris Singing in French)...4) Perdere L'Amore (1999 Live version Singing in Italian)...5) Adagio (1999 Live version singing in english)...6) Broken Vow (1999 Live version singing in English)...7) You are Not From Here (1999 Live version singing in English)...8) Quédate (1999 Live version singing in Spanish)....9) Ti Amo Cosi (2019 Live version Singing a trío with Dimash and Aida Garifullina)....Thank you.
She tops it
