George’s songs were pure joy and fun during his Wham! days. Once he went solo and the more he experienced life his music became much more personal but still magical. He was certainly talented.
If you look at George and Andy on stage you just sense that there childhood friends just having fun and fullfilling a ambition to just play music together. ❤️🎼🎼
@@paulanthony5274_Careless Whisper on chords seem Andrew's composition when George asked him to help compose it w/the 🎷 as the melody...so it's just a hearsay that Andrew playlng 🎸 only a gimmick. ; )
I love that song him and George sang together 123 falling in love with u was easy for me like taking candy from a baby.i never heard that before the Vidio is good hes dancing with his hands.aww bless him Georgeouse guy I love him really miss him badly.miss u my first LOVE💔😭yr a 😇 now
40 years, my God!!! Oh, the summer of 1984, those were the best days of my life. 😜 BTW, the 80s was the peak of Western culture, music was just awesome...
In 1984 the following movies were released. Terminator, Beverley hills cop, gremlins, Ghostbusters and Indiana Jones and the temple of doom. What an amazing year to be alive.
So true! During those days, music would come go...who knew WHAM will keep spinning away.❤ Many a time, TIME tells us who or what REAL treasure is! George, Wham...part of history to be cherished...❤❤❤
For me George is up there with the greats ..Presley..Lennon ... Sinatra he never worked or was coached to sing . The Lord like the others bestowed this wonderful gift to him and he shared it with all of us . Fantastic person missed greatly
Right, it's soo endearing. I can't help but smile every time I see them fooling around or laughing on stage. Their bond was truly special and the joy they shared so infectious
I was a secret admirer when he was alive even bout Bad Boys etc as I was a Stones fan but I recognised talent when I saw it and boy was he talented and a great song writer .
There was always so much fun and joy in these performances. Thank goodness we hace the magic and charisma on film. George simply was iconic in his own rights.
Ok, so if I was at the front of that audience and George did his little hip move at 2:45, I would probably pass out! Because, you know... it's George! 🔥❤
Love this video...... Shirley& George moment! She loved George & still does, she's a lovely person & a loyal friend.... Life is so damn cruel, George should be still be here making music.... ❤️
Obscure fact: at the beginning of this George Michael was wearing a brooch he had borrowed from his sister. It fell off halfway through, and was picked up by a girl in the audience. George and Andrew left the stage before she was able to give it back. Later she spoke to George during a phone-in on a tv programme and told him she had the brooch. He told her she could keep it and he’d buy his sister another one! I wonder if the lucky woman still has it.
I'm planning to sing this song at the end of the year along with other songs from wham and George Michael in tribute of him he was such a nice man 🙂😀🙂😀
IN ONE RESPECT, IT WAS THE WORST YEAR EVER. THE GREATEST SINGER OF ALL TIME, JACKIE WILSON, DIED ON JANUARY 21ST, 1984. HOWEVER THIS TRACK IS SUCH A FEEL GOOD TUNE ❤
2:20 is the moment George's brooch falls off (he discusses this in another video). You can see the brooch fall off, and I believe a little girl picks it up (again, from another video).
Yes, and she tries to give it back to him, he is, obviously, charmed, and says, no, you keep it, and I'll buy another one for my sister (who loaned it to him before show). Beautiful story, no?❤❤😂😂😢😢❤❤
Seriously thinking of doing an acoustic cover on this... It's got a touch of Motown with 80s Pop! RIP George & You're Music Will Stand The Test Of Time
2008 Earls Court the 'Final Two' concerts of the 25 Live Tour... George took every fan on a nostalgic, emotional rollercoaster, to say he was amazing was an understatement..... A good friend of mine who a fellow life long fan shouted out during a pause when he was talking to the audience 'Your bloody gorgeous!'....he absolutely was the most beautiful, talented human being and a complete one off...... You live in our hearts George 💕
I love the bit in andrew ridegeley's book when shirley meets george for the first time, she turned to andrew and whispered, OMG it's the geeky speccy guy from school!
@@rosemariegray4007 u didn't know Andrew wrote a book seriously he was on every channel promoting it.he went on GM TV and pierce Morgan asked about George and Andrew said I am on here to talk about my book.hes put everything in it I heard.havent got it yet to raw for me to read just yet.cant hear him cant see him with out crying don't think I will x
Deborah D- at that time 1985 I was living in London, England then moved back to the U.S. my parents insisted! I lost touch of alot of things going on there! I never seemed to have the means to stay in touch with everything! No tv. Or I worked All the time, so no tv while working 8 hours a day! But now in Covid days of shutdowns and Quareentine, I have nothing but time on my hands- and the internet!! P.S. just like Pierce Morgan to ask Andy about GEORGE! NOT ANDY! SMUCK PM!!
@@rosemariegray4007 he promoted the book this year it's George and me i think I want to know everything about him.i miss him so much it was not his time he was amazing even through he didn't to think so.
RIP - rest in peace my shining diamond i can't help it when i hear you sing or nor can i help seeing your beautiful face. #WHAM-MEGA FAN FOREVER AND ALWAYS WILL BE TREASURED. GEORGE MICHAEL YOU WILL BE TREASURED IN MY HEART FOREVER 💓💓💓💓😢😢😢
Totally agree with you I grew up with Wham was a big fan that sort of talent you don't see these days I adored George Michael sadly missed in the music industry and his fans that loved him but he will never be forgotten his memory his talent lives on
I loved wham! And George Michael. That was my music of the 80s. We are. Nearly the same age and I can't believe George Michael is gone I consider the Elvis of my generation. Rest in peace my friend😢
They are a gift from God to people. R.I.P George Michael, thank you for being there, you enriched our life with the most beautiful songs and your wonderful voice. May you find your peace where you are and have your loved ones around you.
Does anyone get actually sad when you watch these performances just thinking that this amazing beautiful man inside and OUTSIDE is no longer here. No matter if he was just enjoying life not writing or recording just knowing he was here was amazing bc you could hope he would release more incredible music. But knowing that will no longer happen my child will Grow up without hearing anything new but you better believe he knows at 5 years old WHAM and George Michael! Hearing him sing to all the great songs makes my heart melt. I just hate thinking that he was taken from us too soon! I remember that day where I was how I reacted and still makes me so sad knowing he is no longer here. I pray he was not selfishly “taken” from us by “someone” who I won’t name and it was the Lord calling his angel home and needed to fill a place in his heavenly choir. Everything surrounding his death the day before the day of and the days and months after and still years later regarding someone just haunts me to my core. He was so loved but to have died alone makes me sick! Anyways I am sorry I just said all this but as much as I adore his music and listen to it daily I wish I could be happy but I just can’t. It makes me so incredibly sad!
Lindsay Lovvorn Hi Lindsay ! I perfectly agree when you say it but life continues. He was such a talented singer-writer with a an incredible voice and amazing look. I’ll miss him very much Cos I’m a fan since 1981. His songs helped me a lot and was a huge support all these years. George Michael will remain forever in your heart and mine. Take care Lindsay. I wish you a beautiful life. 😁
Your like me still grieving every time I watch him my heart hurts my Pinterest saved photos are through the roof how beautiful he is so handsome sexy.he was my 80s I love him so much I wouldn't be a girl to hurt him LOVE YOU GEORGOUS GEORGE😭💔🌹
I can understand after reading how You feel about it, but can't participate! Wham music always makes me 😊 and 💃! Lifts me ☝!! I was so in love with George!!! Love Andy too but could Not take my eyes off of George Michael- no, not ever!! Only time I saw Wham/ George was at Live Aid July 13, 1985!! I will remember that date forever!
George, Andy, Pepsy and Shirley!!!
Still listening in 2024. An absolute classic from Wham! This is how music should be. 🙂
❤❤❤❤❤
We miss you so much George Michael we always love you !🙏❤️
Yes indeed 😢😢😢😢❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

George looks so good there.
especially his hair.
I’m absolutely obsessed with his hair during this time 🥹
what a phenomenally talented man
良い時代だったなあ😊😊😊😊😊❤
They were 😍🔥
One of my all time favorite WHAM sings
Two friends just enjoying pkaying music together
George dancing with Shirley!! Lovely xx
George liked that shirt…how many videos and performances did he wear it in.. love him and so missed
George’s songs were pure joy and fun during his Wham! days. Once he went solo and the more he experienced life his music became much more personal but still magical. He was certainly talented.
His wham songs were personal.
Something about this band’s tracks is timeless.
If you look at George and Andy on stage you just sense that there childhood friends just having fun and fullfilling a ambition to just play music together. ❤️🎼🎼
And when the performance is entirely lip-sync'd both can look like they're equally singing!
Like kids having fun I even heard Andrew can't play guitar it's all a gimmick
@@paulanthony5274_Careless Whisper on chords seem Andrew's composition when George asked him to help compose it w/the 🎷 as the melody...so it's just a hearsay that Andrew playlng 🎸 only a gimmick. ; )
@@wazzup233 OK 👍
I just met the Bassist , Deon Estus , in LA .. and thanked him for all the great work he did with Wham ! He’s a hella nice man .
Lovely story. We all miss George, am sure he does too
I love that song him and George sang together 123 falling in love with u was easy for me like taking candy from a baby.i never heard that before the Vidio is good hes dancing with his hands.aww bless him Georgeouse guy I love him really miss him badly.miss u my first LOVE💔😭yr a 😇 now
Surprisingly good voice as well!
God bless you ❤️
Wow!! Did not even think about it- that they even had a bassiest!! Could Not take my eyes off of George/ Andy!!
40 years later & still great ❤🎉❤❤🎉
Yabsolutely ❤😍🔥
Even in 2024. This is quality.
That sounds like music of 2024 is even better than 1985. Which it isnt.
This is exactly the kind of joyful atmosphere that this song deserves and inspires.
Умница с добрым сердцем, красивая внешность, которой он никогда не кичился, талант не обыкновенный
Re your beautiful comment, all the above!!!❤😂❤😢❤❤
George Michael one of the most Top artists ever sure we miss him !🙏❤️
What a time to reflect on and rejoice!! Magical memories I enjoyed and was a part of. Wham energy was huge!!!
Makes me feel 20yrs old again. Still..makes me crazy. Gorgeous.
Everybody and count me in. I am in late 40s
80s music was a time to be alive..
Am glad to be apart of this aweosme music era.. Dont let this song EVER DIE!
Me too loved going out dancing to this music
40 years, my God!!! Oh, the summer of 1984, those were the best days of my life. 😜 BTW, the 80s was the peak of Western culture, music was just awesome...
Totally agree ☀️👍🏻❤️
The 80’s were magic years, I was a teenager back then.
👍👍👍👍
In 1984 the following movies were released. Terminator, Beverley hills cop, gremlins, Ghostbusters and Indiana Jones and the temple of doom. What an amazing year to be alive.
the best times
RIP George. This year he'd be 61. The video doesn't get old, even as we do.
OMG, yes.NEVER OLD.❤We are, but whatever.😅😂❤ Love 'il the end, we'll all be together.❤!!!😮😊😅
We love you george 😔❤❤❤Rest In Peace😭😭
So true! During those days, music would come go...who knew WHAM will keep spinning away.❤ Many a time, TIME tells us who or what REAL treasure is! George, Wham...part of history to be cherished...❤❤❤
Wow, 80's music was so wonderful, what a privilege to be a teenager that decade and experience epic new songs year after year!
Think of the competition.
Michael Jackson. Prince.
Only the best could survive in that ecosystem.
What a Beautiful time to be a teenager ❤
Yes its was nice being a teenager in the 80s but now I'm bloody old
Yeah I was 17 when this song came out ❤I can't believe I'll be 56 in July nooooo 😂
For me George is up there with the greats ..Presley..Lennon ... Sinatra he never worked or was coached to sing . The Lord like the others bestowed this wonderful gift to him and he shared it with all of us . Fantastic person missed greatly
And George wrote al his songs unlike Sinatra and Presley
So handsome both of them and both 6 ft tall. And their energy was infectious.
one of the greatest band of their era RIP George
What I really love about watching the Wham! videos is the incredible bonf between George and Andrew. They really were just like brothers.
Right, it's soo endearing. I can't help but smile every time I see them fooling around or laughing on stage. Their bond was truly special and the joy they shared so infectious
I was a secret admirer when he was alive even bout Bad Boys etc as I was a Stones fan but I recognised talent when I saw it and boy was he talented and a great song writer .
George was THE consummate performer. I saw him live twice and he just owned it.
There was always so much fun and joy in these performances. Thank goodness we hace the magic and charisma on film. George simply was iconic in his own rights.
Freedom love is music very beautiful ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ love Andrew and George ♥️
Ok, so if I was at the front of that audience and George did his little hip move at 2:45, I would probably pass out! Because, you know... it's George! 🔥❤
Love the energy of this song and the dancing
George Michael is the leyend of pop
And props to the band and horn players....Excellent job!!!
Yes, they're GREAT.❤😂❤
Well, actually BEYOND great!!❤😂🎉😂❤
That perfomance is magic and george's dance move are pure freedom
Good!!! 프리덤 최고의 곡^^
2024 coming to a close..and yet they ROCK ON ❤
❤😊
FREEDOM!!!! One of the best Wham! songs
Love this video...... Shirley& George moment! She loved George & still does, she's a lovely person & a loyal friend.... Life is so damn cruel, George should be still be here making music.... ❤️
This is all the fun of the 80s in one video.
The best group ever and always will be. Love George and Andrew..WHAM ❤❤
❤ l had the honour of meeting George back in the day. What a charming cheeky man. How l miss him . Retro music greetings from coastal Mississippi 🎉
Beautiful memories, magical WHAM❤ ❤
WHAM forever.
George Michael was heavenly handsome.
He sure was
@@JJ-wk5wy 😊😊
Best 80s song ever!!!

Cindy Martha i Remember that
Watched this video hundreds of times never noticed that I hope she did
Elaine Brickwood I hope so too. George’s sister died on Christmas Day 2019. They were close and it seems she couldn’t cope without him. It’s very sad.
Anyone have a clip of the call in? :)
@@cindymartha1696 Thank you very much for sharing this trivia.
That moment for Shirley-- touched by the hand of God !
Shirlie and George were best friends until his passing ❤
Yes I'm still listening in 2024!
Και εγώ.
Me too ♡
Still beautiful!
I love George and Andrew so much. :)
Me too!
Как-то начали забывать их
Я живу в России ....и это вижу // люди забывают 100%
OMG, What a cutie pie. Write from the get-go his talent goes unmatched!
This an awesome,amazing, beautiful song ever perfect for disco👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I was born in the 90s but if a time-machine is ever made I am 100% going back to the 80’s !
George eri già bravissimo un bellissimo ragazzo già si intuiva che avresti fatto tanta strada bravo e bello ❤❤❤
Oh the memories this song brings back , the 80s was so freaking awesome ❤
George Michael is one of the best musician singer ever lived.
One of his best songs, feels so good, uplifting classic.
Listening during the coronavirus lockdown - the pure joy of this video is so uplifting, thank you so much for posting!
oh yasss ♡
Agosto se ha visto que el gobierno se ha convertido en un poco más de lo que he dicho dvwhzfFqhqjshsbsfvzvsvshnlgleovoqogis
I'm planning to sing this song at the end of the year along with other songs from wham and George Michael in tribute of him he was such a nice man 🙂😀🙂😀
Those were the days. Thank God I was born in that era and enjoyed pop culture. Cherish those years
1984 was the best year ever ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
IN ONE RESPECT, IT WAS THE WORST YEAR EVER. THE GREATEST SINGER OF ALL TIME, JACKIE WILSON, DIED ON JANUARY 21ST, 1984. HOWEVER THIS TRACK IS SUCH A FEEL GOOD TUNE ❤
@@Jackie-ji2sj top tune ❤️
This song was massive, yet it is rarely played now.
Yeah, I was in 11th grade and this song was one of the biggest songs of the 80's honestly. It's weird you don't hear it much these days.
I know. My local radio station used to play this all the time but now they only play modern music. 😔
I think this got forgotten because of Freedom 90 supplanting it just due to the title when people think of George Michael
What planet you on? It's played all the time.
@@Hertfordshire247 Really ? Radio tends to favour I'm Your Man, Club Tropicana and Wake Me Up...
大好きな歌なので聴けてよかったです!ありがとうございます
Love ❤ 2022
How is this song so underrated its beautiful.listen to the crowd. Listen to his voice.his image projects. Godly.
Heard on the radio today 3/8/20 where we are in stage 4 lockdown in Victoria Australia. Cheered me up.
Awesome Memories of Wham especially Michael ❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful boys and beautiful song. Wish George was here. I miss George every day and hour and second and minute of the day.
2:20 is the moment George's brooch falls off (he discusses this in another video). You can see the brooch fall off, and I believe a little girl picks it up (again, from another video).

We've all danced to this in a club back in the day whilst singing to someone you have your eye on the dancefloor 😊
Pure joy of the 80 's !!!George and his juvenile voice ! ❤❤
Seriously thinking of doing an acoustic cover on this... It's got a touch of Motown with 80s Pop!
RIP George & You're Music Will Stand The Test Of Time
RIP George!
Yes, George, RIP, and you better sing to us when we get there❗❤❤😊😊😂❤❤
So great! So amazing! I'm french listening it since my 11 years old! and i'm 47 RIP
George Michael, humm how fun.
私の青春時代が思い出されます。
George...an angel lent by Heaven! And how pretty Shirley was!
Loved this group and song
80's 80's 80's!!!!!!
An era when clashing pallets, cuts and styles were never a miss.
1 of the best
Love this song and the moment with George and Shirley! You can clearly see it was not planned and how happy Shirley was!:-)
Omg, yeah!
George was her brother
@@abhishekbal399 right and she was happy with him they are having fun
I would Sell My SISTER To Be Shirlie in that moment
George Michael is the beautiful voice and my gay "ícone". I love!!
a true iconic song of the 80s, we are now in the 20s and it is always pleasant to listen to it
👍👍

Huge man crush on wham and GM. Great loss to lose him so young
こうして改めて聴いてみると60年代のフォートップスとかのR&Bソウルに影響された楽曲なんだなと思う。ホーンセクションがいい仕事してる。イギリス人ってソウル、R&Bが好きなんだな。
