- 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. Well done both, Tim and George!
Posting it here because we couldn't find it on BBCWorld's Channel, unfortunately.
My goodness, how right he was. The world is a much worse off place now without people like George.
YOU ARW SO RIGHT. WHEN YOU HAVE PEOPLE LIKE GEORGE THAT SPEAK THE TRUTH, THEN PEOPLE DONT LIKE THEM. GEORGE WAS A VERY PROUD MUSICIAN, HE WASNT SUPPOSE TO HAVE ANY SENSE IN ANYTHING OTHER THAN SINGING, AND THEY HAD GEORGE MICHEAL MESSED UP. HE WAS AN VERY INTELLIGENT AND VERY SMART MAN.
I didn't know he was that smart and quick on his feet. Man, what a loss to the world.
Absolutely agree.
+Rosco Pico the cop came on to him. intrappment
+Rosco Pico did you want him to do it in the park? it was wrong what he did and he admitted to it. so how long are people going to go on with this stupid story. he was hoping it would go away but people as yourself just keep going on and on and on.
music lost a fantastic artist
Yes, why do they keep bringing it up on every interview? No one even asks about his music, like what's new, when is he going to tour, etc. You hear it once and it should be enough.
He is very astute about politics. He's amazingly correct. So artistic and yet an intellect . Very unusual . Left brained and right brained. Excellent. Love u GEORGE.
Well said
George is an intelligent person and is not afraid to make his voice heard. Hats off!
There is no way that George would have gone for the scamdemic and its bullshit vax rollout. Do not comply people...stay free. The rising energy prices are the next step.
George is absolutely not going to let anyone undermine his intelligence like the media so often tried to do
George Michael didn't let up at all. I give him props for standing up in what he believes in.
He had passion and wasn't afraid to express it. Fair play George
Good for you George we need more people like you in this world so sad you are no longer here
George is still here! Anytime we want to know & hear from a real man, all we have to do is listen! Knowone can even begin to measure up to George!
👍i absolutly agree❤
He had a great sense of humour so confidently he is replying without being nervous look at his expression while replying these shows he was so talented confident and clever
George was so intelligent and graceful, so classy, immensely gifted. God I miss him.
George proved here that he was more than a brilliant musical artist. He was clearly a superbly intelligent human being who could discuss any subject with ease and eloquence. Truly a massive loss to the world in so many ways.
RIP George, taken away far too young.........
Wow! That interviewer was rough. George is such a Gentleman. He is clear, intelligent, polite and he does not stupe down to thier level. He has dignity and a very level head. Go George.... I fucking love you......
I love this interview! GM sounded FEARLESSLY OUTSPOKEN, INTELLIGENT, ARTICULATE, AND HONEST here!
I admire GM's bravery and honesty in this vid. He gave that interviewer a subtle 'FUCK YOU' to his face!
R.I.P. Gorgeously Magical George Michael.🌷
One of the many reasons I love George Michael. A man of integrity and convictions. ❤️
So here's George Michael who is intelligent, a global super star, worth multi millions and has lost a court case with Sony because he no longer wants to (needs to) go on tour and promote his music and the jerno says, "why Iraq, is it because it's fashionable?" And then says to him (unbelievable) "are you just promoting your new album?" I can't watch anymore. How George stayed so calm and composed is beyond me, i'd of punched him full on in the face, the knob!
L'educazione era il suo più grande pregio e naturalmente era la sua forza.
Mannaggia George non dovevi darla vinta a nessuno.
Se chiedevi aiuto a uno solo dei tuoi fan si sarebbe fatto a pezzi gratuitamente a farti superare i tuoi pensieri negativi.
Sei sempre nel mio cuore George.
❤❤❤
George won with words & not fists. An intellectual & political genius. Very articulate & intelligent human being! A huge loss not only to the music industry but to the world itself!!!!
Most impressive. The man had a conscience and courage. Praying for Time sums up the whole scene perfectly
Can anyone imagine how George would feel about today? This stuff would destroy him. George was strong, enlightened, intelligent, & so much more as a really good human being. Thank God, I live in a world where we were blessed with George. In many ways, he's my salvation. I love him with all my heart & always will. GEORGE IS MY LITTLE PIECE OF HEAVEN!
What a guy, very clear headed, i think he was great, sorely missed
It was like watching a verbal tennis match, and George more than won a few of the tie breaks ;)
I dont know how he knows so much about politics and the world political events. He is always busy doing his musical writings & singing & and grieving, and yet he is so informed , so knowledgeable & so brilliant ❤❤😅😅😅 I am so impressed ❤❤
RIP you gifted, smart, lovely man.
If only today's celebrities had a brain and an interest in something beyond themselves.
It's all money, money, money! Money is the root of all evil. Just listen to STAR PEOPLE, Straight talk/ honest/ & straight to the point. George had too much of a big heart, to take that crap from these disgusting people! People could learn a lot about being just a good human being & doing the right thing, like GEORGE!
Amazing George Michael! A gorgeous man, an extraordinarily talented musician - and then on top of it, so intelligent, well-informed, sensitive, with such apt comments on current affairs. And so brave in voicing his views against the establishment. What a charismatic, lovely personality!
should have made him pm of uk intelligent n smart looking as opposed to brain dead n ugly ones
George was truly brave.
His words of wisdom .
As time goes by, it turns out that George was right!
Missing him so much.
If george never had musical genes, he could have been a great lawyer or politician. Very smart and well spoken guy without having education.
There was a great honesty and love for life in this fallible man.
How sad that the Human Race has lost his brazen talent.
RIP George.
This video deserves to be shared widely to convey your talent beyond the marketed shiny happy sanitised faces of the pop world..
He was so right on all the points he made. So eloquent,so clever and so talented. Miss him dearly, and still grieving over his loss
hes so intelligent, he knows what he is talking about, I love him!
He was on the right side of history. Thank you George. These foul people are hanging their heads now.
Forever George Michael fan❤️
I don't recall George Michael ever "coming up with some lame soundbites" during an interview. If anything, George was very honest, and at times too honest for his own good as the interviewer or the news media then turned that honesty against him.
I find Tim Sebastian overly contentious and argumentative as he continuously interrupted George.
Tell him like it is George! You know who you are and what is TRUTH!
Say it like it is George you stand up for what you believe in rest easy x
Thank you for posting these. It was one of the first things that helped me understand how intelligent, eloquent, thoughtful, gracious and principled George Michael was, and just what a fantastic human being he was.
I appreciate your charitable take on the interviewer. I know it’s part of the schtik...but I really find it awful.
As you say though, it gave George Michael the opportunity to demonstrate his acuity and grace in responding to this badgering.
George's strong will and confidence shines like a bright shiny penny. He is articulate he knows what he wants and is very aware of reality around him. His voice radiates his charisma and I am sure he is singing songs in heaven now ❤
George could hold his own. Shame on you Tim for trying to write him off as a mickey mouse pop singer. He was an intelligent, knowlegable and dignified individual that would snatch you off your high horse real quick. Great sense of humour but didn't suffer fools like you Tim! True loss to the world and humanity.
Typical you would use that as an argument. You're really saying people who use drugs aren't intelligent..quite the contrary actually. Whether he did drugs has nothing to do with his intellectual capacity to hold his own in an argument so eloquently.
Rosco Pico - That he was a troubled man, is undeniable. But that doesn't take away his intelligence, charm, quick sense of humour,, kindness, generosity, compassion, talent...gee this list goes on. A sad sad loss to the world. He gave so much.
@@Tina_Fay He always did the right thing, he didn't have to prove anything! The thing these creeps just don't know is how to use your brain, do the right thing or shut up! Being honest, humble & kind is something they weren't taught as they were growing up. It's so clear, all they do is open their mouths when It's obeiously clear, they need to work on their own pea brains, & be put in their place. Which is not where they are by any means! George has always been the better man, state his piece & basically to piss off, And let me live my own life!
Very astute guy...
Get him George! You go boy! I'm in your corner! love ya
George Michael is very bright and can hold a intelligent conversation...
Too bad this a-hole doesn't know what intelligence is!
I honestly clicked on this interview by mistake but kept watching it lol. It's the style of the show for the interviewer to give his guest a hard time (hence the name of the programme) which George is more than aware of. I was a teen during 'Cool Brittania' and I thought it was bollocks as well.
True legend.
They hate you when you’re alive and love you only when you’re GONE ‼️‼️
George you're the MAN........
you tell em george, such a smart talented man, all the best
the interviewer probably an oxbridge grad - and george just knocks him into a coqued hat. he was so true. Iraq/blair was a pivotal moment. RIP george
Is this THE kIEFER sUTHERLAND? wow, i'M A FAN OF YOURS AS WELL gm NAILED THIS INTERVIEW I LOVE HIM
Great guy this Michael.
It was indeed a watershed moment, invasion and destabilization of Iraq was followed by invasion and destabilization of Afghanistan. So intelligent, better foresight than political analysts. Brave to go against the tide.
I don't like the journalist's tone and disrespect towards George. George was a beautiful person and never deserved all the judgment and shaming.
Love this guy
Didn't put a foot wrong
MY REAL MAN INSIDE OUT RIP MY LOVELY AMAZING CREATURE LOVE YOU NEVER FORGET YOU TILL WE ARE TOGETHER
Bravo!
Gosh, where are the George Michaels of the world when we need them?🥲
GM is as smart as Brando... Brando said the Oscars were a Hollywood industry gala fix and not interested in them .. GM is not interested in record labels, single sales and saw the future as being independent including sales
DAMN, I WISH WE HAD POLITICIANS LIKE THAT!!!! ❤️
Funny that Tim almost patronizingly suggests action in Iraq is well thought out and debated.. That aged well didn't it?!
REST IN PEACE.
GREAT MAN SINGER SONGWRITER PRODUCER.
Why didn't George stop the interview right after the first question that jerk asked him? George was a man of dignity and respect. Too respectful to this guy though.
the thing about sebastian is this. he doesn't listen to the answers.he wants to ask what he wants to ask. that has always been his objective.heck you can give tim mother theresa and he wld still want to trick people into going down the "sensational" bits.
kudos to george for being brave and patient enough to correct sebastian most times.
GM, is SO intelligent, and funny to :)
I was a kid in the 80's when Wham were big, my Mum was a fan of there's she was in her 20's at the time.
Years later, I'm 31(Mum- 50) i have The Best Of Album, can't beat "Wham Rap" when you are feeling a bit down! :)
GM great artists 💕
Contrary to the blurb, Tim Sebastian just does the, now usual, 'your a pop star, what do you know?' Did he do any research before the this interview?
I have to say old George is nobody's fool believe you me..!!
Tim Sebastian has always been a hectoring establishment stooge.
i love you so much
George was Stella with his defense against this interviewer
Luv him , he is so right,
I think he has been proven correct.
what a amazing man rip!! :(
He was fully brilliantly high in this interview
No he wasn't.
somebody forgot their medication this morning lolol
What a loss to the world, never knew George Michael in depth, recognised some of his songs but wouldnt know them by name. Truly honest and intelligent guy.
R.I.P
Now look at the present day terrorism (possibly revenge) plagues the west to a point where its almost expected and accepted. Whilst those that started this chaos sit back and relax with the millions they made and continue to make.
And he was right!
the journalist is unable in the whole interview, not just in this part to #understand how art 🎨 works..and popular music 🎶 in general... he doesn't understand that If George Michael wanted publicity or to commercialize he wouldn't do a song for politics..but he would choose to do i instead a catchy pop song charting the top of the pops up ⬆.. the #fact he chosen to speak about politics through his music 🎶 in this way even risking to displease some people and parts of the world 🌍 shows how independent he was, true artist 🎨 brilliant mind, not just seating on his success but also choosing to bring social matters for discussion #RIP.
un rey George te amo te extraño eras la persona mas bella de alma , the best George Michael i miss you i love you precious soul
I love it! George letting him have it ....
U.S.A invading Iraq may have been the worst idea in the history of humanity
Now Trump want to for the Chabads take out Iran. 😎
and guess what...HE WAS RIGHT
this is interesting...george sounds far more informed and intelligent than the reporter...who in theory should be more questioning of this war...thank you, george...
6:49 GM made a good point but the interviewer ignored it by changing topic immediately
George Michael was smart and very intuitive to say that he was scared of Mr. Blair's attitude to the future....this is so true when i just remenbered one old interview of Mr. Blair ( after he left his Primer minister job) saying that he committed "mistakes" to attack/ invade Irak.....you people just have to be informed and research a lot more in the media. Blessings.
george........a true gentleman
His record sales falling? Bollocks 😂😂
Light years ahead of the scum bags
thats right light years
The interviewer's (I assume devils advocate?) indignation that GM would be against the Iraq War...cut to 20 years later, he would not be so indignant...
GO GEORGE!
HE WAS TOO GOOD FOR THIS WORLD. HONESTY IN THE BIZZ DIED ON THE DAY HE DIED.
Why is he being interrogated like he's on trial or something?
Typical BBC arrogance. The holier-than-thou attitude yet are such hypocrites. Like all MSM
11 September.... If only he knew then what we know now... 5.40ish!!!
I hope Noel Gallagher still feels like a prat after what Tony Blair did! Well done George! That interviewer trying to get one over George it’s hilarious 😂it ain’t gonna work George Michael always knew what he was talking about and was so honest and that scared a lot of powerful people
Terrible interviewer
Ha, touché.
4 million people displaced
Over 1 million Iraqis dead.
Ecco perché George ti hanno distrutto.
Tra le tue immense qualità c'era il tuo coraggio di dirle in faccia e non mandarle a dire come hai fatto con la Sony, solo che poi si sono vendicati distruggendoti in ciò che tu tenevi di più.......il rispetto per il tuo essere.
Perché li hai resi vincitori George?.
Perché?????.
Mi manchi terribilmente amico della mia gioventù e sei sempre nel mio cuore.
❤❤❤
I love this guy - George, that is - so I don't know what beef the guy who posted this video has with him
Most guys are Jealous of George LOL
❤ George Michael's was the sexiest man in the world rip George Michaels
I am the second sexiest :)
J aimerais tellement que ces reportages soit traduits en francais
Such a shame that sex is almost like logo of George Michael humiliating him.What about other aspects of life ,what about other parts of body for exemple head full of wise thoughts.
Magdalena Mar I realize that you wrote this remark 4 years ago... therefore I'll respectfully apologize for my tardiness to the party... I'm only just now running across...what could've easily been a comment of mine... for the sole reason that I feel EXACTLY the same way!
I have actually said and written very close to your words... and both of us have spoken nothing but truth... unfortunately it's even more so truth since he left for Heaven...
They won't introduce him without somehow inflicting their own slice of a thug and bully mentality... it's infuriating to me...and it's a shame...a shame to the media who I feel are solely to blame for us not having him with us now...
I say that because he very possibly may not have kicked his own ass with some of the chemical choices that he did had they shown him much deserved respect... but damn... who wouldn't wish to escape from the nightmare they were to him...
I blame my country before anyone or anything else...I love my country but as an American I am and forever will be ashamed... angry... and now... unforgiving. (I add 'now unforgiving ' given the fact that they waited too long... and now it's too damn late to apologize to this amazing gentleman). Unforgiving of the mean and hateful manner in which She treated this sweet sweet gentle and generous soul... Who, from all and obvious indication, simply wanted to come here in peace... and blissfully in his usual spectacular fashion entertain those of us who adored and appreciated him and the music the soul of that man wanted to give us.
Way to go getting it press before the planet was forced to face our very own Greek tragedy... it is my hope that he did realize that he was loved by so many.
*As a footnote for any of the jack-ass media who is now... in the past... or has always played your part in this man's uncalled for embarrassment and anguish...My name is Velda...a straight white woman... who'd like nothing more than to kick your ass. *
George Michael was peaceful man and brave
its a stupid assumption that he is speaking out politically for publicity. He is one of Britain's and Europe's top superstar.
