- This video takes an in-depth look at the style and artistry of George Michael on one of his biggest hits, Careless Whisper... with ISOLATED VOCALS!
George Michael - Careless Whisper - Isolated Vocals - Ken Tamplin Vocal Academy
I received quite a few requests for George Michael and Careless Whisper isolated vocals.
I have also done three different versions of this song on my channel: one with myself ( • Careless Whisper - Wha... ), one with Kayla Reeves ( • George Michael - Carel... ), and one with my student Vinny ( • BEFORE And AFTER - 7 M... ).
The interesting thing about this song is that it is so signature George Michael that it's virtually impossible to get it to sound like him.
So we stopped trying, ha, ha, and decided to have it sound like ourselves instead :-)
In this particular isolated vocal version, we break down various aspects of George's voice and the incredibly talented singer, musician, and artist that he was.
And we tried to not be too careless about it!
Come along and join us for the ride with this incredible artist!

George Michael was unmatched in the industry. Just so sad Sony screwed him over and robbed us of many years of productivity from this once in a 100 year artist.
Vocally, George was absolutely flawless and he had the song writing ability to match too. He really was in that super elite league of iconic artists whom there are only a handful. I don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone say a bad word about him. That’s how captivating his music, his voice and his legacy is… anyone and everyone can love it.
He was one of those genuinely decent and kind human beings too. The anonymous things he did for charity speak to the integrity of the man.
There’ll never be another George. Ever.
He was AMAZİNG SİNGER and COMPOSER !!!
Very good and very rare combination !!!
Hey just because we are rockers doesn't mean we cannot appreciate other genres and vocalist. GM was incredible talent.
That's right. What a boring world if we only ate one thing. Same with music.
@@kentamplin So can you do Lady with Mr Rogers..the live version mabye..?
This rocker here was raised on everything. My maternal grandparents were into the Rat Pack, the Andrew Sisters, anything orchestral, big band and country. My paternal grandparents were into country western like Hank Williams and Merle Haggard. My parents listened to the Beatles, Elvis, the Ramones, Zeppelin, Chrissy Hynde and the Pretenders, Zap and Roger, Michael Jackson. There’s probably a million more but I don’t have room to type them all.
The truth is Everyone likes a bit of George Michael, even people who don't consider themselves a fan still like some of his songs. It doesn't matter what music you're into, rock, country, hip hop, soul, dance, there's a George Michael song you like. Careless Whisper for example, has universal appeal.
GM still is and always will be. 💜 @Ken Tamplin Vocal Academy what a wonderful analysis of this song that means so much to me and many others I'm sure!!! You've covered the vulnerability and innocence and guilt even(?) conveyed by the late and great GM in this song. Thank you.
without a doubt, George Michael was and always will be one of the best vocals as a reference, interpretation, tuning, and professionalism. beautiful memory to one of the best artists of this century. God Bless You.
I agree, Orlando!
This is pure gold! He was an amazing singer, composer, performer… such a complete artist. I really like him a lot!
It’s probably already been said here, but again, George wrote this song while still in high school… he is sorely missed!
I was blown away years back finding out the age that he wrote this (thank you Music Choice lol). It's just incredible 😊
Few singers could add up to Michael. The worst part is, it sounds so easy. Like nothing at all. But try to sing his songs, they are crazy high, and so hard to do. That is the genius behind his voice. The ease and lack of strain. Soft like silk, on killer high notes!
George Michaels voice is so effortless and full sounding. There are few who sound like that I can think of Kenny Loggins does and others
Not sure but he seems a mezzo soprano so that kind of explains it
He was a Lyric Tenor.
GM's RENDITION OF "I CAN'T MAKE YOU LOVE ME" IS BOTH INIMITABLE & UNTOUCHABLE!
It is. For me it’s even better than the beautiful original (sorry Bonnie :)
George’s voice is like butter wrapped in silk. So smooth and clear. The vulnerability and emotion that he exudes with every lyric gives me goosebumps. He draws you in to the story he’s telling you, and you feel like you’re living it. That is a rare, rare gift. George is and always will be my favorite vocalist and songwriter. I’m so fortunate to have seen him perform live a few times. He had an impeccable vocal ability which filled the venue.
George Michael is a legend.! His velvety voice is par excellence! He is greatly missed! What an icon as well!🌹💜🌍
George Michael one of the greatest singers of all time what a voice smooth great tones he could sing the heck out of any song love careless whisper what a voice big George Michael fan
I think he is unique: he's never try to do anything beyond his chords, meaning it seems to me he uses his voice as he is dancing with it, he follows his voice; he lets his voice come out. There is a mutual respect.....
George was a master of whisper singing. Putting the breath in his words perfectly. Love his work.
George Michael is such an underrated singer & songwriter. He wrote this song with just 17 and this while is was sitting in a bus. His velvet voice and his songs are timeless. And all of this was without auto-tune just with pure talent.
The only correction I would make is, that George Michael is not underrated as a singer. My impression is that his singing skills are highly recognized by those who are seriously into music.
George Michael underrated? Seriously?
I don’t think people think he’s considered underrated, everyone know GM is the best
George Michael underrated as a singer & songwriter? That's a first.
He's considered one of _the_ best pop singers ever. Careless Whisper and his duet with Aretha Franklin put everyone on notice.
And when Careless Whisper was a hit it was a well-known fact the he had written it on his own, people were mentioning that bit ad nauseum, and he was getting a _lot_ of praise for the lyrics.
And then came his other solo albums that were all critically acclaimed.
Generally he's considered a real musical powerhouse.
Perhaps underrated in the US because he stepped away from the market in the late 80s, and rarely played on the radio. People in the US didn’t grow along with him as he developed keener writing skills and more beautiful vocals than ever. Of course if you were a hard-core Music enthusiasts you followed his career and you saw what an amazing beautiful vocalist and songwriter he was.
Every dude secretly liked this song. It had such a hook to it. It seems like they had too much reverb on him but everything from the 80s was reverb to the max. He has that Bee Gees type voice. Nice break down of all the nuances Mr. Tamplin.
George Michael was a wizard. A remarkable artist. One of the best we've ever had.
He is an incredible vocalist and entertainer ❤️🙏😇😀🕺
Was!
George had a truly poetic soul and that is what was expressed through his music. It's his ability to share the universality of emotions that we respond to and with the combination of his elite musical talent, it made his music utterly beautiful and transcendent.
I believe George was only 17 years old when he wrote this song,during Wham tour when he use to perform Careless W. That’s when the rest of the band realised he meant to be a pop star on his own cuz the reaction he got from the audience was incredible they all knew it only matter of time before started his solo career. I’ve been a GM fan since the first Wham album come out til today. I used to be teased “ bullied “ cuz I was listening to GM the same time as I was listing to rock and heavy metal
I really enjoyed this video and can’t wait for more to come. 🤟
Well, we all knew this song was great but now, because of Ken Tamplin, we know WHY this song is indeed great.
Exactly! Thank you Ken!
George is awesome ❤️ and you r🔥😁
GM is telling his audience a story melodiously from his heart that is why some "flats or sharps" are there to make it the emotion organic. Great artist, song, lyrics and melody made this song an icon that will last the test of time. If the great pyramids were made of stucco, we will only have our imagination to interpret what we see today.
I'm a rock/metal guy but I always considered George as a brilliant vocalist. The "Faith" album is still one of my favorite all time. He had a unique voice that will never be replaced. Thanks for your video Ken.
I grew up in the 70s and became a teenager in the start of the 8os did not ever care about music .....then George Michael came along ....I was hooked untill he died ....now I'm back to not caring .
Absolutely loved him. Spot on with auto tune. I miss the organic sound of the singers I grew up with. Agree with his silky approach in setting the scene. I did always wonder what he’d sound like a bit heavier in his delivery. Still, very privileged to have heard this when it first came out. Loved this!
Oh man, George Michael ... one of my favorite vocalists ever! He was the real deal 👍. He sang with so much soul and expression. "Careless Whisper" is a top notch r'n'b song.
Thank you for being kind and brave enough to recognize GM’s talent.
George was wonderful.
It doesn't take bravery to recognize his talent. However, it does take foolishness to not recognize it.
One of my favorites. Definitely uses his vocals to tell the story so you feel every word.
Love George. The man was a master of dynamics (the 'gear shift' you talked about). He knew not to unload all the big notes right at the start - this song is really simple harmonically but it all hangs on the vocal delivery.
Ken thanks for doing this with GM. His voice is a rare gift.
Great vocal, so sad that he died so young. ‘Praying For Time’ is a fantastic GM song.
I’m a solid 70s and 80s rock guy but George’s show at Earls Court show was one of the best shows that I have seen. Talent is talent and all rock guys appreciate talent that’s why we like rock
Wow was at that gig totally agree!!!
When "New Wave" came out, (early 80's), I didn't really get into it so to speak, but I did of course like a lot of the music. Rocker to the core. . .😂 Being older now, my tastes in music have mellowed.
The way you break songs down, makes me appreciate those bands more and more.
Thanks Ken. .
George Michael's voice is beautiful.
George Michael is one of those artist that you could simply feel the emotion in everything he did. There are only a few artists that were able to write with such a poetic justice that you just have to appreciate, regardless of how you feel about them. George Michael, Meatloaf, Michael Bolton, Richard Marx -- these are people that are phenomenal at what they do. It's a shame that they were so unappreciated by so many people.
George Michael’s phrasing was exemplary plus the words he wrote were just so well crafted and written around the phrasing. When you listens to his songs and compare them to other artists, you’ll realise that his lyrics are short, spaced out almost poetry-like, telling an intimate story. Pure genius that flows through pretty much everything he wrote.
Hard to believe he wrote this song at 17 on the bus home from school…..
George sings this song as if he's telling a story, George thinks about his voice when singing songs. Thanks for this video.
Thank you so much for breaking this down. I’ve tried for years to match George on this song and have always come up wanting. This song lives on as a testament to a truly unique talent. So tragic he left us so soon.
Thanks so much Ken, George is my idol from age 11 until now age 51 - and to watch this is really fantastic xxxxx Rest in peace George xxx
His vocal, never overpowered, agree 👍
Wonderful video! IMO one of the all time greats! My mom had Elvis Presley and I had Wham! and George Michael. I experienced several special moments in my life w/ George Michael's music playing in the background. Moments I will NEVER forget! In 1985 as a graduation present I was able to attend a Wham! concert in FL which is still one of the best nights of my life. Several years later I saw George live again during his "Faith" tour... AMAZING! He sounded just as incredible live as he did on the albums at both concerts. His beautiful voice/music will always be apart of my life.
I just don’t quite understand how he came up with all that as a teenager. Y’know? And the song meant so little to him as he got older that he didn’t feel a connection to it. He only sang it at shows because he knew his fans wanted to hear it. Anyway, thanks for that breakdown. George will forever be my favorite singer.
Andrew Ridgley had written a series of chords and GM had the saxophone piece. They both naturally merged.
love this... funny i just watched his documentary couples weeks ago called "freedom uncut" really loved it
I love it too. Seeing it on the giant theater screen was a real treat
One of the best! So glad you included him in isolated vocals Ken❤
George Michael man. Missed the music and personality in his songs. RIP. He's so great at dynamics.
I remember growing up with George and for years everyone talked about his song writing ability; you never heard anyone talk about how great a singer he is. That didn't come for years later. We lost G, Freddy, even performers like Prince, MJ and Bowie and they have never been replaced.
Don't see much artists like this anymore, sure miss this kind of singing and music, sad.
Always been one of my favorite male voices😍
Girl mine too 🥰
George Michael is one of my favorite vocalists! The part where you said he was being selfish, I feel it was just his way of saying WHYYYY, did you do this to me!! I’m f*ckin George Michael! Lol 😂
Absolutely phenomenal singer and composer. loved the isolated vocals and your understanding of his vocal style
George Michael. Inductee 2023 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Long overdue. Go VOTE. ✌🏻♥️
I'm rocker but George Michael for me was one of the best singer ✌️🙏🤘
Beautiful is … beautiful
GM is my favorite! Thank you for doing this
That was real nice Ken, Love George Michael.
A great singer is a great singer no matter the genre!
Prince before...now George PLUS as always great wisdom from Ken. Its a treat!!! Thank you Ken
Great singer and beautiful song. Your enthusiasm is contagious when you talk about songs and singers !
I always learn with you ;) Merci !
Such an amazing song n an even better musician
Indeed!
Aww wow now here is an instructor that knows his craft. Way to go Ken. Loved the way you broke it down for all of us :) 🤗
Oh man..so incredibly talented..He's another singer that I loved everything he did...So soulful. I love his duet with Aretha, I Knew you were waiting..
Thanks Ken, for recognizing the truly talented artists. You mentioned Freddie Mercury and Elton John (in this video) as well... also world class vocalists. Decades ago, George Michael schooled everyone at the Freddie Mercury Tribute concert. I also love the duet he did with Elton for "Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me". Great video Ken, I appreciate how much knowledge, experience and expertise go into your opinions and videos!
My pleasure, Derek!
At The Freddie Mercury Tribute , George Michael gave the Old Dogs like Robert Plant , Roger Daltrey, David Bowie, and ALL the rest of em a Private & Free Vocal Class/Lesson . The ONLY one Who could have done it better would have been Mr. Mercury Himself. Sadly enough such a contest wasn''t meant to Be in this World . . . .
Absolutely Ken! I LOVE his delivery. He was a great singer…😊
George was incredible... ..most unique beautiful velvet soul voice ever....who prescaisly new how to sing and breing a song ...No one til this day who good sing like this...and specially not live...he sounded live even better than on record....never used autotune....brilliant songwriter and producer....i mean he road this song when he was 17 years old....on the bus from his job to home....you really sut listen to
The don't go where i go
Tonight
Long winding road
Brother can you spare a dime
This songs are so beautiful and his reach mindblowing
His voice was incredible....and he good sing every genre.. and it was always incredible beautiful....so manny songs to listen to...every song was amazing ...every album was amazing ..al his covers where better than the original ....his concerts where so good....fan for 40 years
And there is not a song i don't like.
Did you know he did in the song Nikita from Elton John the high notes at the end of the song.
So heartbreaking there whil never be new music from him again ...and i miss him terribly...❤️❤️❤️R.I.P George 🙏🕯️
He’s like a storyteller in singing 🥹
A modern day poet 💜
Hey Ken! George was awesome. He had it all. So much talent! Getting tired of commenting about all the stars that went to The Ultimate Stage way too soon!😎
Couldn't agree more! Rock on, Jeff.
@@kentamplin You as well Ken!😎
It's quite remarkable how talented George Michael was. Wow
Let's see more of his work here!
And journey, and survivor!
Nobody... And I do mean nobody painted the emotion like George Michael... So missed 🙏
Fab Ken.... you brought the song to life...
Being a teen in the 80 and the birth of MTV, I liked a lot of styles of music i wouldnt have really looked for. Dude was a major vocal talent no matter how much of a metal head i am ...i know a great voice when i hear it and wont deny it
Same here. I remember loving this when it came out.
💕 AMAZING! Perfect as always 💕 Thank you!
His last recorded concert was amazing
George is one and only singer who inspired me every time 🎉❤❤❤ R.I.P G.M
It does matter if you are a metal guy! A wonderful voice it's a wonderful voice, period!
Wow his voice is soft an so clean it's actually mind blowing that you can literally break us through on each level an your definitely a dedicated teacher my friend so awesome 😊🤘
Glad you enjoyed it!
He showed his stages of grief real well.
If the fabric silk could sing, it would sound like George Michael! His voice is so smooth, incredible.
loved the video Ken, great as always.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I had a similar thought as you, except his voice reminds me more of if a saxophone could sing lol. There really is no one else that sounds like him 😘
I have to say Ken, your insights into these make all the difference when it comes to truly appreciating the talent of the singer. Pointing out the subtleties and inflections in their voice and your sincere accolades regarding their talent, makes one revisit the singer and their catalogue even after all these years. You're a pro man. Love your stuff.
George Michael....Pure silk!
Thank you very much Ken 👍🏻 as huge George’s fan I respect a lot your comments and your interest for George
That was incredibly illuminating. Thank you for 'pulling back the curtain' of such a great artist. Respect!!
If heaven has Angel's that sing like him , I cant wait .
Great analysis Ken. Such an informative 20 minutes. Thank you
Absolutely about auto tune. The natural ebb and flow of his flow is fantastic
He left the world so soon, I love his performance with Queen cover of Somebody to Love, better than the original
What a great song I wish I could have seen him in concert. Cool review
Hey Ken, you sound just like him. Your great in your own right.Rock on.
Great job Ken (as usual :)
Great singers are great singers, rock or pop or country and so on.
Love this song. Thanks for seeing more deeply into it
I'm self thought guitarist and singing by the way. This is among first songs I tried to sing, and learned the hard way that is not for beginners.😀 Compliments for isolated vocal analysis.
Rock on!
I'm a bit of a self taught singer and it's a hard one for me too lol. I feel ya there bud 😁
Oh my goodness...I remember requesting this a while back, so happy to see you covering it. One of my favorite singers of all time, also had one of the most unique voices in music ever. Great video Ken, thank you 😊
RIP George 💐
There wasn't anything George Michael did that wasn't worked out, thought-out and perfected out to the nines. That is one of the many reasons he was an utterly brilliant singer and songwriter, producer and a performer. I don't know anyone who even had this level of talent... And somebody please don't say Prince because I don't think you can compare the vocals.
Gorge Michael was an amazing singer songwriter with a sad soul gone before his time.
Ken I LOVED your version of Careless Whisper!!! Took me to a really cool place and time. Thank you for sharing
Amazing singer!!!! So emotive...one of my favorites is his duet with Elton John "Don't let the sun go down on me," incredibly talented musician!!!!
A genius , “ praying for time “ my favourite song of his. His performance of that on I think American Idol was quality ❤❤❤
My all time favorite song. George M. was one of a kind! Thank Ken!
As a rocker, I'm not afraid to admit that George Michael's music is sensational. I grew up on a lot of music that was out decades before I took my first breath. The eras of music I have listened to goes from crooners in the 1930's like Bing Crosby, all the way to pop punk from the mid 2000s like All Time Low, Fall Out Boy and others, as well as heavy metal from the past couple years like deathcore band Lorna Shore.
What a great insight. The auto-tune remark blew me away I had just never thought of that. And I guess as auto-tune is such a prominent feature of today’s artists, this is why we are lacking songs that impart such emotion and pitch variety
