....that's a proper story....what we have to seemingly deal with these days is ..."anyone listening in 2024?"....frankly from a imbecillious millennial...Phoebe..."We're all awaiting you my gorgeous"
Oh man...Phoebe will always be there with you. I cannot imagine my dear Tenzin...passed on in 2021...feel very grateful for having known that special kind of love... Wishing you the best.. And yes, nothing soothes a heavy heart like George Michael ❤❤❤
Yes, his live performerances matched his recordings and if anything were better because of his visible physical emotions. He had also been loved. Very few singers can match live performances with electronically improved and adjusted recordings. He was simply wonderful. I wished I'd seen one of live performances. Sorely missed. 💔
I've never seen a live singer who came on and just grabbed the audience in the way that he did. I first saw him on the Faith tour at Earls Court - the visceral incredibly powerful crowd response when he appeared was one of the most unforgettable experiences of my life.
No one sang like George did...even while singing live he sounded clear, smooth, almost angelic, everything sounded pristine, and full of emotion...perfection did exist, every time he sang...
А разве когда-нибудь он пел не вживую? Он всегда отдавал всего себя, когда пел! Его голос - это что-то необыкновенное: он завораживает тебя, появляется какое-то необъяснимое чувство волшебства и ты уже забываешь о времени и вообще обо всем! Даже не зная языка и содержания песни, ты просто слушаешь этот голос и хочется, чтобы он звучал и звучал... Мне тоже, очень его не хватает! И каждый раз, слушая его, слезы текут сами по себе... Народ очень любит тебя, дорогой!!!

It's December 2024. From his supreme album 'Older'. This is the song that completely shatters me to bits. George you are missed so much and you are so loved ❤❤❤❤.
This song tells of sadness, melancholy, grief, loneliness and deep pain. And endless love. So much love. This song can tear your heart into 1000 pieces. And make it whole again in a split second. This song is a miracle.
Truly magnificent from start to finish! Amazing lyrics, amazing voice, amazing song. George Michael’s music will never get ”Older” and is left for us to inspire future generations… Legend!
KIMBERLY MY FRIEND, MY THOUGHT,S ARE WITH YOU, JUST REMEMBER YOUR SON IS STILL WITH YOU IN YOUR HEART, LET GEORGE,S BEAUTIFUL MUSIC PUT A SMILE ON YOUR FACE KNOWING YOUR SON IS THERE WITH YOU SMILEING TO. PEACE BE WITH YOU MY FRIEND'S. 🙏✌️😎🏴

The best MTV Unplugged performer of all! Every song George sang is so beautiful & moving. You can feel the emotion. I dearly miss him. Still listening to him in 2022.
@@Vivian-ll9jn good to hear that from you, I would like to get to know you better if you don’t mind? Where are you originally from? And where do you currently live?
Сегодня 25 декабря 2023г. - день когда ты покинул НАС... Слезы текут от обиды, что мы никогда уже не услышим твой проникновенный чарующий голос, не увидим тебя... Нам так тебя не хватает! Несмотря на всю твою популярность и любовь народа, мне кажется, ты был очень одиноким человеком... Как жаль, что всё так сложилось... 😢
"I've no daughters, I've no sons, guess I'm the only one, living in my life" What a brilliant songwriter George Michael was, using such emotive and heart-felt lyrics.
I always thought George was a good artist but never imagined how much I’d be listening and singing to his songs almost everyday at age 53. Thank for the music. A great man too with charities etc.
I dedicate this song to my only son , my beautiful angel forever 26 in heaven. My heart will forever be in pieces now.Yes my Son you have been loved, you still are Loved.
still sends shivers down my spine listening to this. perhaps one of the most beautiful and poignant love songs ever written, particularly when one understands the background to the lyrics. in case those that listen are unfamiliar, the song is dedicated to George's first love Anselmo, who passed away 6 months into their relationship. section 1 of the song described the love anselmo's mother had for him as a child and the pain of losing him. George and anselmo's mother meeting to visit at the grave and take him flowers, with George singing about losing faith. As she leaves the graveyard she tells him don't think that God is dead. part 2 is George speaking to Anselmo at his grave after his mother has left, and part 3 is George addressing God directly about how cruel life is and that he doesn't keep such love from harm. finally, part 4 is anselmo speaking to George either from the grave or just before he passed. powerful powerful stuff. RIP maestro x
There's also a lot of symbolism in the song. BTW, Anselmo was diagnosed with AIDS 6 months into their relationship, and died from an aneurism in the brain while getting treated with a blood transfusion about 2 years after diagnoses. George helped care for him during the short time they had. This happened not long before they started to have the "cocktail" of drugs for treatment of AIDS.
This is pure poetry and it tells of George’s first love Anselmo who died six months into the relationship. George meets with Anselmo’s mother at the graveside. So sad for the both. George does not ha God to turn to but he has been loved.
Amazing comment and backstory, now hearing the song becomes even more emotional, i hope there's an afterlife because if it's real George and Anselmo are together right now, two souls loving each other for all eternity.
That baritone voice, his phrasing, his pure tones, .none of those vocal theatrics, no falsetto, no auto tune.... And oh yes, those eyes and eyebrows, dimples, that square profile,....his generousity to charities etc .....yes, he had a troubled life.....some of it his own making. But his voice will live on.....as a sweet reminder of perfection in his art.
We must be connected by the universe! Merci for that nice complement.( I can read a bit of French,). I see that we both must be a fan of George Michael. I just discovered him. and now am quite mesmerized by his talent . May he rest in peace at last.💔💔

The voice of an Angel. Every emotion can be seen in his face when he sings, he puts his whole heart into his music. The day we lost him, we lost the best. There will never be another George Michael, he was taken far to soon
George is my all time favorite singer, my brother died at the age of 11 months and it turned my mother crazy for years and she never recovered from it, she later contracted Aids and was dieing and on her death bed I shared this with her that I always invisioned this song was about her when my brother passed and she cried and I cried and being able to share it with her instead of just keeping it to myself was such a emotional experience for me. There's lines in this song now I feel where directly written for me, her and my brother. No song will ever mean more or be more special to me.
I'm so sorry to hear what you have personally gone through . 😪 yes I agree George Michael songs have touched a lot of lives with his music .and sings from the heart .I have grown up with George Michael's music And was so sad that he passed away so much talent. Such a beautiful soul . And may you find some happiness in your soul one day . 😢
Darling I'm sorry for yr pain 💔 I've had alot of suffering I relate to yr beautiful words of love. ...glad I read yr words...you are very gifted sweetheart...only the chosen ones know great pain ...I know you are God's chosen one special soul sending big hugs and love from NEWZEALAND GOD BLESS 💖 ❤ 💕 💗 ♥ 💓 💖 ❤ 💕 💗 ♥
I lost my 15-year old sister 3 months ago. This song, which has been a favourite of mine for a long time, has now transformed into something else. A safe place to weep, a mirror that reflects everything happening in my life and in my heart. George is and will forever be the best songwriter there has ever been. Who else could write something so profoundly longing, sorrowful and, to everyone with an aching soul, comforting. I miss you, my little precious angel. Life is tough without you and I can do nothing except learn to live with this pain. But as George sang - what we have to learn we rarely choose.
The World Did Not Lost a Singer. He lost one of the Best, who has passed through this Earthly Plane. This Singer was So, so great, that unfortunately, he himself did not know, that he was one of the Best, if not THE BEST. The Songs and Music will no longer be the same, as well performed, as it was in the Voice of the Great George Michael. My Respect and Admiration for you. George Michael. In any State other Earthly State, whether physically or spiritually. o Timeline, where you are. You will not stop being a Great and Important Singer of all time.
It's been a while since I watched this performance but just had to see it again after recently watched his documentary Freedom! '90. I also started listening to some of George's other material that I hadn't heard as I got older. Wow!! I am left breathless and speechless! I loved him as part of Wham! and when he went solo, I played many of his songs nonstop but they were more of the pop songs. Listening to songs like this is like discovering him and his music all over again and what a privilege that is!! His voice is like silk and the range of emotions, particularly for this song, are phenomenal! Sultry and smooth, like honey. 🍯 There's no other artist like him and I doubt there ever will be again. He is truly and deeply missed, not just for his music but also for the amazing, beautiful, loving, kind man that he was!! ❤
I'm 50 years old and have been blessed with a musical ear and mind. The best live voice I have ever heard. God sent this voice to comfort people..... thank you George - this world is indebted to you.
YES INDEED, WITH THE LIGHTS DIMMED AND ALL OTHER OUTSIDE SOUNDS CANCELED THIS SONG MOVES THROUGH YOUR SOUL. I SIT HEAR FEELING THE LOVE AND LOSS OF THIS BEAUTIFUL SONG. TEARS ALWAYS FORM AND ROLL DOWN MY CHECK. A LUMP IN MY THROAT THAT I CANT SWALLOW PERSISTS THROUGH THIS SONGS ENTIRETY AND REMAINS LONG AFTER THE SONG ENDS. I SIT IN SILENCE AT ITS CONCLUSION AND JUST REFLECT IN AWE OF ITS MEANING AND MESSAGE. THAT MAN WENT SO DEEP INSIDE HIS SOUL TO BRING FORTH THIS MUSIC. HOW RAW AND PAINFUL. THANK YOU FOR SHARING THAT WITH US GM!
Is it just me or was George Michael's sound & look so ahead of your time? Watching this concert in 8/2022 it truly doesn't seem dated??? Just my personal opinion.
Georgie boy , you were a great composer and lyricist... sublime . You really had it all , didn't you ..? The whole package . Sleep well , old friend , you have been loved .:-)
I can't hardly get through this song without crying like a baby. It reminds me of the loss of my son at 36 years old, killed by a drunk driver. The extreme grief when you lose someone you loved so much by a sudden tragedy. A mother's heart broken, his love's heart crushed and life forever changed. I had a lifetime of memories, she only had a few beautiful months. The same God that took him is the same one I pray to for strength and comfort, that seldom comes. The cruel irony of those lyrics in the song get to me. He was loved and I know without a shadow of a doubt that he loved me too.
Juillet 2023 J aime toujours et autant Georges Michael, sa voix, son charisme , sa musique et ses paroles , tout ce qu il nous a donné et qui me manque
@@Jcrash71 Talent must not be wasted. Those who have it - and you obviously do or today’s Calendar cover article would have been about Rudy Vallee - those who have talent must hug it, embrace it, nurture it and share it lest it be taken away from you as fast as it was loaned to you. Trust me. I’ve been there. Frank Sinatra
I would likely not have survived this night without the voice of George Michael. This year 2020, has been a very heavy lift. He saved my life tonight, all the way from the grave. Wish he’d known that.🙏
There was a school boy suicided in my country, and before he jumped, he had asked his dad to read his letter. He had to study till 3am, and no one listened to him. He jumped from more than 20 floors, without regret, while he was so young, just a high school boy, with good grade. I accidentally found this song the day I read the news about the boy, and I couldn’t sleep that night. This song hits me hard that I rarely listen to it again. Such a sad story that matches the song. The 1st part about a woman , it’s like his mum. And overall, he has been loved. Rest in peace, lil bro.
He truly must have been an angel sent by heaven. That voice, those words, that way of expressing human emotion and love. I miss you George and am so grateful you left us your songs. ❤
Man, the intro on this live version sounds even better than the official version. The violins and other string instruments are so much more pronounced. Especially at 0:47 to 0:59
Legendary singer, performer and wordsmith, George hit the right notes in your heart in every song, take care George, you have been loved....by millions ...Rest in peace.
I can’t believe anyone would turn their thumps down at this masterpiece. This unplugged was a genius performance and nailed his work. This guy was a multi performer, an angel at songwriting and one of the most amazing tenor voices of our time. I am lucky to have been in his presence a time or two while he walked this planet. Thank you George, you gave us hope even when you had none.
Вселенская боль, воплощенная в прекрасную музыку. Когда слушаю эту песню ком в горле и слезы сами текут рекой. Какая сдержанная, истинно мужская печаль, но в тоже время светлая и нежная, что во много раз усиливает весь трагизм этой песни. Он гениален!!!!
Невероятный тембр и мягкость голоса, харизма!!! Много лет это мелодия номер один для меня! Думаю, он хотел донести до нас простое, нас любили!)) If I was weak, forgive me.....
Sometimes I still can't believe that you're gone, my heart still cries. I am listening almost every day to your music, comforts me to hear your voice.. 😢❤
The Lyrics sum up the way I loved Clifford James who passed in 1995, leukaemia, at the age of 35, the Love of my life, married for 2 blissful years. I miss you my love every minute of everyday. You changed my life for the better, you're an Angel in heaven ... my love 💔
George was 33 and this song was off the hit older album, came out in 1996. His voice was never better. Frozen in time, forever. Such a beautiful song. It’s been 25 years, my search for anything comparable in vain.
He most definitely was one of a kind and my heart is lifted with joy every time I hear him sing most anything; his originals or remakes. There's never been another artist quite like him and it's doubtful there will ever be.
One of the standout gems on "Older", my favourite ever GM album. So many beautiful layers and shifts in mood in this composition. One of those tracks that really demonstrate what a fantastically gifted songwriter he was. Rest in peace, George.
I can honestly say I miss this amazing man on an almost daily basis. Words cannot describe how utterly talented he was. I will listen to his music for the rest of my life. The poetry of his music...and his voice was so unique. I never met George Michael but I miss him so very much. He provided us all with such a gift. If I was weak, forgive me. I was terrified...I mean, come on. Thank you so much George. I love you x
Always difficult to watch his performances, but especially now when he would've turned 59 - it's no age, yet he's already been gone just over 5 years. Never been so badly affected by the loss of someone I never met but hugely admired - bewildering ... How I miss you, GM, but I'm sure you're in a much better place 💔🇬🇧
You are very much missed George I wish I could have a brother like you but I had two older sisters that's the way God wanted it but you're a wonderful singer a good dancer but now you're in heaven singing for Jesus and our little pup two little pups and fact they're sitting on my mom's lap and so happy with Jesus
The most UNDER-RATED great singer/songwriter. I can't help but think a great deal of that was because he was gay during the era when it was simply not acceptable to so many people. He's voice was HEAVEN and he was so very handsome .......I was devastated when he died. It's still hard to accept. I think his legacy will grow over the coming years.
"You brushed my eyes with angel's wings, full of love, the kind that make's devils cry" are the most beautiful lyrics I have ever heard. Just stunning.
I dedicate this beautiful song to my adorable husband "My Pretty Kitty" who died a few days ago and with whom I shared 19 years of happy marriage. Rest in peace dear love.
Lost my dog suddenly last night. Couldn’t sleep afterwards. Put this song on and it comforted me. RIP George and Phoebe. You have been loved
have you found him yet?
....that's a proper story....what we have to seemingly deal with these days is ..."anyone listening in 2024?"....frankly from a imbecillious millennial...Phoebe..."We're all awaiting you my gorgeous"
@@Nikohhh04 I know it’s been eight months but so sorry for your loss of Phoebe💞

8 years ago. R.I.P. George.
This is breathtaking. True elegance, grace and a beautiful man.

A very sad but very insightful reply. I hope for your sake it doesn't come from knowledge of the same ❤@gonzo1979tor
Am I the only one who thinks this singer's voice is one of the most beautiful that ever existed? If you think so, thumbs up too
No, just one in a million. Enjoy 😍
I have cried many times
Beautiful man with amazing talent to make you feel he is singing just for you. ❤💚☘️🎶🎵🦄💃🖤💛😉😎
Couldn't agree more, and knowing he'll never perform live again makes George's performance of this beautiful song even more poignant xxx
not only his voice.... but also the feeling he expressed always....
There’s sad music, there’s emo music, and then there’s certain George Michael songs that are incomprehensibly upsetting.
🕯️💔💔💔🕯️
George Michael lives through his beautiful songs. He will never die ❤
Absolutely! Is this your favorite song?
Roxanne you are beautiful ❤
Love all of George Michael songs wish he was here Rip@grahamcheesman2252

There's lines in this song now I feel where directly written for me, her and my brother. No song will ever mean more or be more special to me.
I'm so sorry to hear what you have personally gone through . 😪 yes I agree George Michael songs have touched a lot of lives with his music .and sings from the heart .I have grown up with George Michael's music
And was so sad that he passed away so much talent. Such a beautiful soul . And may you find some happiness in your soul one day . 😢
That made me cry bless you all xx
So sorry for your loss, I must admit your story touched my heart, I wish you all the best.
God bless xx

I lost my 15-year old sister 3 months ago. This song, which has been a favourite of mine for a long time, has now transformed into something else. A safe place to weep, a mirror that reflects everything happening in my life and in my heart. George is and will forever be the best songwriter there has ever been. Who else could write something so profoundly longing, sorrowful and, to everyone with an aching soul, comforting. I miss you, my little precious angel. Life is tough without you and I can do nothing except learn to live with this pain. But as George sang - what we have to learn we rarely choose.

May her soul perfectly rest in peace in JESUS Name Amen

I pray for loss....stay strong
My husband's funeral is tomorrow. This song just breaks my heart. It will last forever in my heart ❤️
Hi Alison, how are you doing
God Bless you Both. ❤
❤️🙏🏽
🌹❤️
Heartbroken. You have been the soundtrack of my life. Rest in Peace George.
You brushed my eyes with angel wings full of love .. the kind that makes devils cry …😣
The World Did Not Lost a Singer. He lost one of the Best, who has passed through this Earthly Plane. This Singer was So, so great, that unfortunately, he himself did not know, that he was one of the Best, if not THE BEST. The Songs and Music will no longer be the same, as well performed, as it was in the Voice of the Great George Michael. My Respect and Admiration for you. George Michael. In any State other Earthly State, whether physically or spiritually. o Timeline, where you are. You will not stop being a Great and Important Singer of all time.
It's been a while since I watched this performance but just had to see it again after recently watched his documentary Freedom! '90. I also started listening to some of George's other material that I hadn't heard as I got older. Wow!! I am left breathless and speechless! I loved him as part of Wham! and when he went solo, I played many of his songs nonstop but they were more of the pop songs. Listening to songs like this is like discovering him and his music all over again and what a privilege that is!! His voice is like silk and the range of emotions, particularly for this song, are phenomenal! Sultry and smooth, like honey. 🍯
There's no other artist like him and I doubt there ever will be again. He is truly and deeply missed, not just for his music but also for the amazing, beautiful, loving, kind man that he was!! ❤
My feelings exactly
Он своеобразный исполнитель, мало кто может под живой оркестор исполнять, душевный человек, поэтому и умер от болезни связанной с сердцем
This world is a lesser place without George.
George, for sure you have been loved , rest in peace
Manuel Amestica I just found out...so sad!
😓
Manuel Amestica
🙏AMEN🙏
Amen my friend
I'm 50 years old and have been blessed with a musical ear and mind. The best live voice I have ever heard.
God sent this voice to comfort people..... thank you George - this world is indebted to you.
Not just a great singer but a kind loving gentleman, sweet sleep.
YES INDEED, WITH THE LIGHTS DIMMED AND ALL OTHER OUTSIDE SOUNDS CANCELED THIS SONG MOVES THROUGH YOUR SOUL. I SIT HEAR FEELING THE LOVE AND LOSS OF THIS BEAUTIFUL SONG. TEARS ALWAYS FORM AND ROLL DOWN MY CHECK. A LUMP IN MY THROAT THAT I CANT SWALLOW PERSISTS THROUGH THIS SONGS ENTIRETY AND REMAINS LONG AFTER THE SONG ENDS. I SIT IN SILENCE AT ITS CONCLUSION AND JUST REFLECT IN AWE OF ITS MEANING AND MESSAGE. THAT MAN WENT SO DEEP INSIDE HIS SOUL TO BRING FORTH THIS MUSIC. HOW RAW AND PAINFUL. THANK YOU FOR SHARING THAT WITH US GM!
Is it just me or was George Michael's sound & look so ahead of your time? Watching this concert in 8/2022 it truly doesn't seem dated??? Just my personal opinion.
Yes,I agree.
Georgie boy , you were a great composer and lyricist... sublime . You really had it all , didn't you ..?
The whole package . Sleep well , old friend , you have been loved .:-)
I can't hardly get through this song without crying like a baby. It reminds me of the loss of my son at 36 years old, killed by a drunk driver. The extreme grief when you lose someone you loved so much by a sudden tragedy. A mother's heart broken, his love's heart crushed and life forever changed. I had a lifetime of memories, she only had a few beautiful months.
The same God that took him is the same one I pray to for strength and comfort, that seldom comes. The cruel irony of those lyrics in the song get to me.
He was loved and I know without a shadow of a doubt that he loved me too.
🙏**
My heart bleeds for you 💓
My son loved me with all his heart ❤️
❣
thanks

J aime toujours et autant Georges Michael, sa voix, son charisme , sa musique et ses paroles , tout ce qu il nous a donné et qui me manque
It's a cruel world. We lost you. You were so beautiful. You are in my heart forever.
Hi Hilary, how are you doing today?
Frank Sinatra said that George had one of the greatest voices of the 20th century. I agree. George was truly a Sublime musical talent.
Source?
George is the best by farrrrrrrr😢.!!!!
@@Jcrash71 Talent must not be wasted. Those who have it - and you obviously do or today’s Calendar cover article would have been about Rudy Vallee - those who have talent must hug it, embrace it, nurture it and share it lest it be taken away from you as fast as it was loaned to you.
Trust me. I’ve been there.
Frank Sinatra
O.m.g. so byutifall
Big love and miss him💔💔💔
Я так скучаю по его голосу..
what an exceptional performance of one of the most moving, heartfelt songs I've ever heard. 😢❤
I would likely not have survived this night without the voice of George Michael. This year 2020, has been a very heavy lift. He saved my life tonight, all the way from the grave. Wish he’d known that.🙏
I Believe He Does Know...May God Bless You...♥️♥️♥️
Im glad he saved you and may he continue to do so until we all meet up again in the hereafter 💜
Greatly loved and missed. Rip.
What a lost of a beautiful man and a talent
Love you George.
More strength to you. Hope you're fine now. It's so sad to hear that you had to go through something bad. Stay strong, the best is yet to come 🌈
This song resonates no matter how old you are, Rip George
YOU GEORGE MICHAEL ..You Are The Best Singer In The WHOLE WORLD !!!!!!
His voice is like an amazing musical instrument.
Hi 👋, how are you doing
!
Plus belle qu'un instrument
There was a school boy suicided in my country, and before he jumped, he had asked his dad to read his letter. He had to study till 3am, and no one listened to him. He jumped from more than 20 floors, without regret, while he was so young, just a high school boy, with good grade. I accidentally found this song the day I read the news about the boy, and I couldn’t sleep that night. This song hits me hard that I rarely listen to it again. Such a sad story that matches the song. The 1st part about a woman , it’s like his mum. And overall, he has been loved. Rest in peace, lil bro.
Respect to this great lord of music. The memories remain!
With love from Moscow.04.07.24.
He truly must have been an angel sent by heaven. That voice, those words, that way of expressing human emotion and love. I miss you George and am so grateful you left us your songs. ❤
The best singer of all time ❤
This voice! This emotion! This man! This style! He had it all! 🎀⚜️❤️ Miss you, so much, George!
You can say that again…
He have a soulful voice!
This is my favorite song 🎶 so tell me are you a fan of George…?
Hi Marya, how are you doing
One of the greatest
@@antoniog.5587 so true...
@maryamilagros8 ..I was really sad when he passed, I've been a fan since WHAM..80S MUSIC ARE THE BEST..HE was so talented..
Man, the intro on this live version sounds even better than the official version. The violins and other string instruments are so much more pronounced. Especially at 0:47 to 0:59
Para mi el mejor cantante qué jamás haya escuchado aparte compositor qepd
Legendary singer, performer and wordsmith, George hit the right notes in your heart in every song, take care George, you have been loved....by millions ...Rest in peace.
We miss you George!😢
I'm so pissed we lost this guy that early... I basically grew up listening to him since Wham days.
The singer that no one will ever replace him until the end of day .. im lucky to live in his generation 🥹
I can’t believe anyone would turn their thumps down at this masterpiece. This unplugged was a genius performance and nailed his work. This guy was a multi performer, an angel at songwriting and one of the most amazing tenor voices of our time. I am lucky to have been in his presence a time or two while he walked this planet. Thank you George, you gave us hope even when you had none.
Que hermosa experiencia saludos
I wish I had seen him live. Just videos, you are so lucky!!!
Omggggg you nailed it....That breaks my heart to hear and be reminded that George had lost all hope😫😫😫😫😥😥😥💔💔💔💔
amen…
To my mind, the only singer whose songwriting talent matched his god-given voice.
He was one of the greatest voices of this world 😭 forever his fan
Look at this …George knew he could sing but never shied away from putting all the support around him for all to see…respect xxx😢
Вселенская боль, воплощенная в прекрасную музыку. Когда слушаю эту песню ком в горле и слезы сами текут рекой. Какая сдержанная, истинно мужская печаль, но в тоже время светлая и нежная, что во много раз усиливает весь трагизм этой песни. Он гениален!!!!
Такой точный , пронизывающий комм. , как и эта песня , и этот голос , и этот безумно красивый исполнитель.
👏👏👏👏👏
“Full of love,the kind that makes Devils cry” 😘
There will never be another amazing man like this gorgeous beyond words ❤😢
Saturday, 19th Feb 2022 (17.00), if I have to choose only one song, it would be this one……We miss you, George ❤️
You loved us and we loved you back. ❤
Невероятный тембр и мягкость голоса, харизма!!!
Много лет это мелодия номер один для меня!
Думаю, он хотел донести до нас простое, нас любили!))
If I was weak, forgive me.....
Sometimes I still can't believe that you're gone, my heart still cries. I am listening almost every day to your music, comforts me to hear your voice.. 😢❤
That so kind of you.. Shows you’ve a beautiful soul and I believe George would be so proud to touch a soul like yours🤗🦋💕 Is this your favorite song?
I am an atheist, but if there is heaven, George Michael is singing in it. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
You can say that again…
He have a soulful voice!
This is my favorite song 🎶 so tell me are you a fan of George…?
Hi Silvana, how are you doing
The Lyrics sum up the way I loved Clifford James who passed in 1995, leukaemia, at the age of 35, the Love of my life, married for 2 blissful years. I miss you my love every minute of everyday. You changed my life for the better, you're an Angel in heaven ... my love 💔
George was 33 and this song was off the hit older album, came out in 1996. His voice was never better.
Frozen in time, forever. Such a beautiful song. It’s been 25 years, my search for anything comparable in vain.
This my favourite George song I just love everything he ever sang from the wham days to smyphonic
He most definitely was one of a kind and my heart is lifted with joy every time I hear him sing most anything; his originals or remakes. There's never been another artist quite like him and it's doubtful there will ever be.
One of the standout gems on "Older", my favourite ever GM album. So many beautiful layers and shifts in mood in this composition. One of those tracks that really demonstrate what a fantastically gifted songwriter he was. Rest in peace, George.
Beautiful song dedicated to those who are not here but who we love 💔🎧🎺
I can honestly say I miss this amazing man on an almost daily basis. Words cannot describe how utterly talented he was. I will listen to his music for the rest of my life. The poetry of his music...and his voice was so unique. I never met George Michael but I miss him so very much. He provided us all with such a gift. If I was weak, forgive me. I was terrified...I mean, come on. Thank you so much George. I love you x
Как же это ВПЕЛИКОЛЕПНО! Как и все,что делал Джордж Майкл! ❤
THE HIGHEST LEVELS OF PURE BRILLIANCE, ABSOLUTELY 100% MAGNIFICENCE!*!*!*!*!
This is a Tribute to his mother, Jesus to a Child was to his boyfriend, both are SO powerful, lyrically and vocally.
Absolutely and beautiful lyrics
George Michael Songs sind alle mit seinen Herzen gesungen wunderschön ❤😊🎉
Always difficult to watch his performances, but especially now when he would've turned 59 - it's no age, yet he's already been gone just over 5 years. Never been so badly affected by the loss of someone I never met but hugely admired - bewildering ... How I miss you, GM, but I'm sure you're in a much better place 💔🇬🇧
Their death affected me so much, I loved so much as a singer and artist
Yes, me too. George, Michael Jackson & Freddie Mercury's deaths all made an impact on me. Sad. So much talent there.
You are very much missed George I wish I could have a brother like you but I had two older sisters that's the way God wanted it but you're a wonderful singer a good dancer but now you're in heaven singing for Jesus and our little pup two little pups and fact they're sitting on my mom's lap and so happy with Jesus
The most UNDER-RATED great singer/songwriter. I can't help but think a great deal of that was because he was gay during the era when it was simply not acceptable to so many people. He's voice was HEAVEN and he was so very handsome .......I was devastated when he died. It's still hard to accept. I think his legacy will grow over the coming years.
"You brushed my eyes with angel's wings, full of love, the kind that make's devils cry" are the most beautiful lyrics I have ever heard. Just stunning.
The most beautiful bereavement song ever written.❤
@@bonnyjmorris1261 I completely agree. It brings tears to my eyes everytime I listen to it.
Increíble pero cierto así es la vida uno de los mejores de nuestra época los dejo su música para siempre ❤️
Sentimentally, beautiful.
I dedicate this beautiful song to my adorable husband "My Pretty Kitty" who died a few days ago and with whom I shared 19 years of happy marriage. Rest in peace dear love.
Sending you love, I am sorry for your enormous loss 🖤
EL SER QUE TE AMA ESTÁ A TU COSTADO...❤
❤
Big Love to you ❤
