[@johnking5174]

To all American viewers - Red Nose Day is part of a charity called Comic Relief, where people wear red nose badges to support the event. The last event in 2015 raised around £78 Million ($96 Million) on the night. And since it was founded in 1985, the charity in the UK has raised in total £1,047,083,706 (around $1.3 Billion) for disadvantaged people in the United Kingdom and Africa. So it is something we brits are proud of actually. The next event will be held in March this year 2017.

[@johnking5174]

Yes, but the British version was the first. And for a small island, the money raised each Red Nose Day is just amazing.

[@NDMeow93]

Yes, you do, but Comic Relief is a British charity. In America they raised the equivalent of £18 million, which is nothing compared with the £78 million raised by the U.K., especially when you take into consideration population and wealth. Does the US have a different version, as in a day where TV is devoted to a particular charity and everyone fundraises for it? All the kids celebrate it and do what they can to contribute? It would be cool if you did...

[@Luckbeats]

And 90% of it goes straight back into the governments funds each year while the children continue to be abused and starve. You really think if we were raising 77 million pounds a year there wouldn't be a dramatic decrease disadvantaged children in the U.K. And Africa. Same goes for cancer research. We are only funding the government but U.K. Are blind to it

[@youdisnohavapray254]

[@EricBeck]

@@morgana7893 I miss him, too, in no small part because he was a constantly evolving artist, and man. I was ALWAYS moved by him, in his music, or in interviews as he talked about things in general. A fascinating guy, and no doubt there was a ripple in The Force at his passing...

It's a sad irony they never had George Micheal on the show to actually do Carpool Karaoke.

[@jamiecaslin8722]

He wasn't promoting anything so he had no need to be on there. The clip in this video was for charity and not self gain.

[@theylied1776]

Jamie Caslin How about he was just a great fucking artist, is that reason enough? What exactly were Stevie Wonder, Rod Stewart and Mariah Carey promoting when they did carpool karaoke?

[@jamiecaslin8722]

theylied1776 They were promoting themselves to stay famous.

[@theylied1776]

Jamie Caslin They were promoting themselves to stay famous?? There has to be one of the dumbest comment I've ever seen. They were the first ones to do carpool karaoke, and James Corden didn't have the ratings that he does today. So doing The Late, Late Show when James Corden took over was not a boost to anyone's career.

[@rswpt]

George Michael wasnt only one of the world's very best voices, he was also very humble and Human. The sense of loss, and void is still overwhelming to this day, just thinking he is no longer amongst us. we are left with his body of work however it is only a glimpse of the great person he was.

[@Roggerrabb1t]

What a lovely story. I recently came across his grave by accident and it’s made me reflect on his music and legacy. Such a kind soul.

[@peakerboo4310]

[@katystyles802]

George Michael was such an amazing artist who left us too soon. George will be missed but forever live in our hearts.😞

[@PaulJGorzkowski]

George Michael played a HUGE role in molding the 1980's into the legacy that it is today for so many of us Generation X kids. It would not have been the same without his music and talent.

[@4444pro]

He molded us wrong

[@maggie2244]

You can see in the clip that George has considerable acting and comic talent as well, what a gifted and lovely man he was!

[@SusanBrooklyn]

George was never a joke to anyone who loved him. Whether you loved him for his music, and never met him, you knew he wasn't some egotistical pop star. George felt deeply and cared about people. All the generous giving he did to strangers was done on the down low. He gave his time and wealth to people he wanted to help and thank. I love George for his gentle soul. You can tell when he was hurt, and it was so sad to see him so hurt. It feels like it's been so much more than 4 years since he's past. I wish there had been a tribute in his honor, by artists. It's wrong that there wasn't a tribute by musicians around the world to celebrate his life. I hope one day there will be.

[@nzfalcon8698]

i grew up listening to 80s music ( best ) and Wham was part of it , then George went solo in his career and made some fantastic songs that he wrote himself , his songs and other 80s music takes me back to a time when life was better and im sure other people feel that way too

[@MichaelHolmgaard]

My father was a roadie for George Michael some years ago, and I will always be grateful to him for giving me the chance to meet George in person. I was 12 years old at the time, and I saw George backstage. He immediatly turned his attention to me as my father introduced. Despite the fact that there were tons of people present in the room, and many journalists wanted his attention, he spend almost 20 minutes talking to me! And though I was nervous, he just smiled and kept asking me about my musical preferences and stuff. I got to tell him that "Bad Boys" was my favorite song of his, and he was happy to hear that. He thought it was refreshing, since most people always said "Faith" or "Wake Me Up". 🙌 I will always remember him, and will never forget how he reserved time for an annoying little kid he didn't know at all. But it also makes his death that much harder to cope with. R.I.P Legend 😢

[@WordUnheard]

Now THAT was a great story. Thanks for sharing! The world is a sadder place without George Michael in it.

[@MichaelHolmgaard]

Word Unheard Thanks man. It's so rare that these superstars are like you imagine them in real life... but George really was just as we all think he is. My father have worked with many celeb musicians, and he always said that George was one of the most comfortable artists to work with -He would always hang out and dine with the crew ;)

[@jaymason3339]

That a beautiful story, George Micheal is one of the reasons I got into singing and the first album I ever bought was "Faith', This man will be always be remembered for passion and soul he had for his music.

[@WordUnheard]

Mickey Holmgaard You are truly blessed to have a father like you do, and yet you still seem very humble. Your father raised you well.

[@MichaelHolmgaard]

Word Unheard Thanks for the kind words. I've always respected my father immensely for having brought me into his work. I mean, the koncert-business is a very darkened world most of the time, and most roadies keep it separated from family and so on. But he said that he didn't wanna miss out on my childhood, so he always brought me along when there was time. He said he wanted me to know every side of the music-business, and that he wanted to make sure I got a great musical "education" .I'd like to think I succeeded there ;)

[@jerryhamer]

Its sad that you have to die to have everybody come out and tell you how special and loved you were.

[@ryanflynn9793]

Kris Hammer So fucking true. Humans are fucking aweful!

[@suzannel8926]

I wrote on his facebook page that I think he's wonderful and I worry about him. Not sure if he even read it though.

[@seventiesandbeyond]

Miss you George

[@rolybling]

Still missing you George, always will.

[@romybeaker9166]

This couldn't have resonated more with me. I feel exactly what Corden felt, listening to George's songs. Songs like One More Try, Where Did Your Heart Go, etc. - you just feel a connection with George himself that makes you feel like you weren't alone anymore and knew what to say to get you believing again. Being gay myself, An Easier Affair struck an even deeper chord. He's the reason why I sing the way that I do - I use his breathing patterns and in public karaoke I even do his accent when I sing his songs lol. I still miss him today. Here I am, it's nearly midnight, searching for KZbin videos about him and watching this. Thanks for saying what you said, James. Sharing this George Michael connection with you is ever lasting. Love your show! And a special thank you to George Michael for sharing his passion with all of us.

George Michael Dead. I started crying. I will never forget how sad I was. Not just for myself, but for the entire world. I knew that he was a shooting star and way ahead of his time. He was a beautiful, talented and gifted human being. There will never be another like him. Ever. The world lost a legend. All these years later, it still breaks my heart. Rest in peace Yiorgos.

I still cry when I think of his passing. He was so passionate about life and his music. At least now his spirit is free and he no longer has to deal with the evil and hate that tormented him while on earth.

I still cry everyday about him he's such a. Cutie and bitty and such a. Great guy

[@captainkaos1770]

I grew up listening to George he was part of my daily life and as a man I'm proud to say that while my other mates were listening to heavy metal in the 80 s i was listening to careles whisper instead. Georges music will be frozen in time forever for millions of us and allways in our hearts. Rest peacefully now my friend your time here with us will never be forgotten

The wonderful man with the BIGGEST heart... Mr. George Michael, forever remembered, forever missed.

I work opposite where George Micheal lives in Goring where he passed away and there are still people coming down to lay flowers was talking to some people who came all the way down from Ireland, America, Scotland and loads of other countries just to pay their respects to George it's so lovely to see there are thousands of flowers still there and that's after the rotten ones have been taken away they're still being replaced with new ones from people who loved him! RIP George you were loved! ❤️

[@tonygold1971]

I’m guessing you worked in the coffee shop?

[@meganwarrick3673]
