Love George and Aretha. R.I.P to both

[@melissaphillips3088]

Anything with George is amazing and Aretha is the Queen of soul. Two greats together !! Love them both👏🏻♥️

[@rosamiller8687]

Epic duet!! Check out the others George did. Ray C., Stevie, Paul McCartney, Tony Bennet, Queen, Elton , Mary J, Whitney, Muyta Buena, Astrid Gilberto, and Smokey. All are amazing.

[@karenp4667]

Won the Grammy for best duet. Love it

"Reverb - an effect whereby a sound, especially that produced by an amplified musical instrument, is made to reverberate slightly." Your explanation of the sound production made me curious and look for a definition and clarification of a "reverb". Lol Because whenever I've heard this song I've always had that strange feeling as something is off or just different with it but couldn't pinpoint exactly what it was. It was really educational and smart of you to notice the production work on the song and explaining it. Now it makes sense to me. Freddie Mercury adored Aretha and always dreamed of working with her but, unfortunately, it never happened. I remember listening Freddie's radio interview when he was asked about this song. Freddie did respect and like George Michael but he couldn't help himself not to show little envy. So he concluded his praises for Aretha and George with mischievous half-joke: "I would have done it better, dear!"

[@HarlydarvySenior]

It was a #1 hit in 1986.

[@leed119]

Freddie and Aretha....wish it could have happened.

[@terridostal1348]

I was thinking the same thing. Freddie would of loved it and it would of been great

[@denikennedy6675]

This song was definitely worth it's merit in positivity!! Fantastic collaboration of Aretha and George R I.P. love the song!! And the fact that you Hap truly listen to a song and never miss a beat!! On point!! 💜🎵 good choice Chris!!

[@catsara9114]

This song blew us away when it came out, and it still does! 😍🤩

[@jerrywillier1]

I enjoy the fact that you truly LISTEN to the song....and you give an honest reaction and review.....I've come to trust you...😊

[@loriezuberka4569]

this song will set your soul on fire,,, absolutely loved your reaction to one of my most favorite songs ever

[@VUM.M]

Oh, I completely forgot about this wonderful and unique collaboration and haven't heard it in ages🤩. Fantastic choice, Chris. And there's nothing to add to your always insightful analysis HAP. It's always something special when two legends of this caliber come together and create such a wonderful peace of art🥰🙋🏻‍♀️.

[@sumerfluffy]

What an upbeat song! Good choice Chris! Awesome reaction HAP! ❤️🥰❤️

[@betagombar9022]

1986, being as you're from the UK how could you have not heard this at some point somewhere? A good duet but my favourite George duet is This is not real love, which George dueted on with Mutya Buena of the Sugababes.

[@FLmickey90]

Legends in their own rights! They're both missed! This is at the top of one of my favorites for collaborations! Everything you said is spot on!!

[@bjw0515]

I love them both and how could they not be good together! Thanks for the reaction, and your right it does sound big. Take care!

[@daniellaplume3840]

This is how it's done. Aretha already had a resurgence and a comeback I the eighties and visually on MTV.

[@AcdallasAndy]

Two of the greatest ever!

[@angelafranzin6792]

🎶🎶❤❤thank you < greetings from Germany

[@peggyh8937]

Oh, they are so missed! Classic! May they R.I.P. Great reaction, HAP, thank you! You sound like you might be a little congested though. I hope you are not ill. Be well, my friend.

[@amydavies2529]

And there you have it....two great vocalists. Appreciate your reaction, Hap, as always. Thank you, Chris, for the song choice. ✌️ ☮️ 🎶 🥷

[@htbald1]

George also did a great duet with Whitney Houston called " If I told you that"! Check it out!

[@1964mtm]

George believed that song needed to be just the two of them singing, focusing on that. Thanks for not talking over the video

[@stephaniethompson7]

Check out the clip from the movie " Stormy Weather" "Jumping Jive".😊😊

[@elkevera]

I remember watching the video on German VH1. Man, he was a looker! - To bad he turned down Queen as frontman after the tribute concert. I swear: Had he taken over there would have not been all this outrage of the fans. - Now you Hap take care of yourself. Get some rest for that chest cold. 💖

[@nanner3200]

Wow! Two people I never would have thought would do a song together. Had no clue this existed! Great find Chris! I liked it! As Freddie would say "Darling Hap" Are you sick? You sound it a bit

[@HAP3SPEAKZ]

Thanks for listening
