    My takeaway was that George looked happiest as long as Andrew was around! Being a George fan, I realised he only grew more and more silent over time and sadder perhaps!!
    This documentary is pure gold!! Loved every bit of it!!

    Just so sad, the loss of George Michael. Would’ve been 60 on Sunday which Elton John honoured at his performance that night at Glastonbury. He had such a glorious voice. I remember how bummed all the girls were when he came out.

    I can't wait to see this documentary, definitely now that I know Andrew's mom supplies some of her personal collection. I remember being 10 or 11 years old seeing the videos for Club Tropicana and the campy Wham Rap. I was an instant fan. I'm glad that this documentary makes it clear Andrew wasn't just coasting on George's talent.

    I enjoyed this documentary so much. Michael was a beautiful person inside and out, not to mention he had the voice of an angel. I loved the friendship him, and Andy had - he seemed like such a loyal and wonderful friend to Michael. It made me sad to think what would have become of Michael if Wham! would have stayed together. 😩😩😩

    Joseph is about as unattractive as a $1,000,000 gift card to Tiffany's- nice to see him humble about winning the gene pool. Wham! was huge when I was growing up in the 1980's and it's great to hear how close Andrew and George were behind the scenes. Gotta love that Wham! rap!

    I have seen so much on GM and Wham! over the last few years so I thought I had seen a lot of things. But his doc was so good. So much new footage, so much behind the scenes footage...I was sad as well. I thought it was great they showed Elton presented him with a writing award. GM was so happy about the award and gave him some validation. And to see the evolution of GM's look from Wham!, to the video of Careless Whisper and even the video for I'm Your Man was so interesting. He was really getting ready for his solo career. I thought the doc well done and GM would have like it!

    As for Elton, he seemed to convince himself at one point that he really was bisexual. He married a woman for feck's sake! LOL. George never seemed to convince himself of such a thing, thank God.

    For the record , I am a straight black male who was 23 at the height of WHAM!. My first thought when I saw “Wake me up” on MTV, was this group is cool, and I like the song. The lead singer is handsome, and I kept lit moving. Never thought of George Michael being Gay until he was caught in the bathroom. Which to me shouldn’t have been broadcast. Let that one go. Assholes had to make a point. I was shocked he was gay,, but again kept it moving. Dude was a bad mofo. RIP
    Same with Boy George, except I knew he was gay, but he was an excellent so get and entertainer

      George Michael was born in London and has lived his whole life like a Brit, neither speaking nor singing Greek. And in the end he wasn't even buried according to the Greek-Orthodox faith, which would actually be obligatory for all Greeks.
      So I don't understand why you want to give him a different identity.

    Anyway I could go on but I digress. I’m not over George’s passing. I saw him in concert 2008. Best night of my life. I loved Wham as a teen. Was obsessed. I’m not happy with Andrew. I feel like this was a vanity project.
