In 1983 I managed to convince my school friends to go to our first ever concert, Wham's Club Fantastic tour at the lyceum Ballroom in London. They all complained that it was going to be a crap concert and that George Michael was just a pretty face that probably couldn't sing. We were absolutely blown away by the power of his voice and his incredible stage presence. It was just amazing, so fortunate to have witnessed the start of his outstanding career.

People did write him off as some lightweight wanna-be and were always surprised by the extent of his talent and also how thoughtful and articulate he was about his craft, his influences, his knowledge of musical eras, types of music, etc. Interviews with him when he was just around 20 years old reveal someone incredibly aware with much depth.

At nearly 70 yrs old I've heard a lot of 'great' voices and pitch accuracy, technique is more or less a given but what is now a forgotten element is the actual 'pleasing' quality of the voice - how 'nice' or not it sounds, the actual character of the voice. Best example for me is Nat King Cole. Now years later upon more relaxed listening, George has this. A voice dripping in honey just as Nat does. Probably only a handful in history - sublime wonderful..

He didn't just write It, sing It, arrange It produce It, He lived It! Learn from an example, right? George has changed my life in so many good ways. Thank God, he gave us the love of George!

Fil, when you said, “we have a treat,” you weren’t kidding! George Michael’s voice was on a whole different level. Even listening to him rehearse in the studio is like listening to gold. I’ve listened to other analyses that you’ve done of him. It was amazing that he had the ability to replicate his studio voice like his live voice. I saw the look on your face when you said, “I could spend about 5 years on this.” Yes, the way George and Shirley placed their vocal cords were art forms. It’s amazing how a rehearsal can be full of expression and accuracy. You proved that George had the ability to nail it with artistic expression. He is sadly missed, yet fondly remembered for his musical contributions. Thanks for this analysis that pays tribute to the legendary George Michael…bravo, Fil!

But he was one of the few artists who made me listen to every track he released, just for the pleasure of being astonished by his vocal performance. He’s definitely the voice all true music aficionados miss.

It is really such a relief to hear again a real voice after so much artificial stuff. Sadly, I must admit that, while I knew him and his songs since long, and appreciated his singing talents, I never paid attention to details, nor gave him enough credits, and this for ONE reason : I grew up in a world where THIS, I mean, natural voices, were the standard. And, despite the fact that he's excellent, he's simply not a favourite of mine, musically speaking (but I really like the bass on this song, minimalist, yet effective) It was such a pleasure to hear again an expressive singer, who pronounces consonants, breathes, controls his diaphragm, and HEAR this, not having heavy editing that erases the human factor in music. THIS level of musical excellence should be the standard again.

What a fantastic analysis, Fil! This is the old-school Wings of Pegasus content I love the most, with your original, detailed and enlightening examples, not to mention your clear admiration and enthusiasm for the subject! And btw, don't sell yourself short--at 14:02 and forward, your own voice is damn good and George-ish! George was a true artist--a supernova of innate talent, hard work, soulful musicality and charisma. Think of the years of amazing performances we lost with his early death. But thank God his body of work is so plentiful. (As an aside--the bassline is fire!🔥)

Great to see you still with us on KZbin Phil (or is it Fil? Doesn’t matter). I have a ton of respect for your channel as a musician and just as someone who loves music in general. I have 4 separate KZbin subscriptions (mostly just so I could get a month free of premium lol). Anyway, I made sure I subscribed to your channel on all four👍. Your channel is very unique. Hope you keep sticking around and continue to grow.

Excellent critique! I had the pleasure of hearing him live, and yes, I agree his vocals live were studio quality. Such a wonderful artist, supporting singers and band!

I just loved how he sang almost in a whisper while hitting the notes. That’s what really attracted me to his voice. The level of emotion he sang with was incredible.

George was on a whole other level - "Listen Without Prejudice" I consider to be one of the greatest albums of all time. Just fantastic. Loved his turn on the series "Eli Stone" - having his music be so central and ongoing to the plot was fun, and his appearances were a delight. Feels like a memory from a parallel world, now. Very missed.

I'm sad I never saw him live, because I think he was one of, if not the, best vocalists of all time. His voice was flawless

I had goose bumps... adipose erectus might be the techincal term for it? Trying to recall my cosmetology terminology for it. Hearing George Michael sing brought tears to my eyes. He had the most perfect voice. Plus, his hearing... well, really EVERYTHING about him was perfect. His need for PERFECTION is probably the reason he's not with us today, unfortunately. To the world he WAS perfect, but to himself... he wasn't. 😢. BUT, HE WAS! HE REALLY WAS! He was as close to perfection as a human could achieve. That wasn't good enough for him, unfortunately. 💔😥. I sure miss him... WE ALL MISS HIM, his absolutely beautiful, melodically perfectly pitched and timed vocals, his gorgeous GEORGE looks, large or small, it didn't matter, he was GEORGE MICHAEL! He was generous, SO GENEROUS FROM HIS HEART with donations to EVERYONE, it didn't matter who touched his heart. He was such a nice person with a wonderful musical gift and a huge heart. But, such a tortured soul. We miss you, George. And Ms. Lewis... we love you, ❤❤❤❤❤. Thank you, Fil and fans for this fantastic review. No lies, no fibbing, only the truth and no favoritism either. "Just the facts, jack!" ❤❤❤❤. George... we really miss you, you were perfect just the way you were. 😢❤

I admire George Michael as an artist he had the most beautiful sound, not just for the accuracy but his resonance. Not sure how else to explain it. Thank you for this one ☺️

Most artists do a live version of their studio hits.....if they're not miming, only a few can nail a live version. Doesn't it make a wonderful change to hear and see how a great artist nails it 🙂 Fil, keeping it real 👍🏻

George was such a fantastic vocalist and for the short time I knew him a gentleman. That was back when he live out by Rickmansworth late 80s. Wonderful person.

Oh, I miss the good old days of true vocal artists. I have goosebumps when I listen to George sing with the harmonies. I know how much work goes into the process. He was an amazing perfectionist. Thanks so much Fil.

This reminds me of the wise adage of "You PRACTICE at home. you REHEARSE in the studio ." Meaning all these cats and George showed up ready to focus on the final product , not figure it out while burning valuable time. I've found the most important aspect of any performance is momentum. From inspiration to execution you need to keep that energy up and constantly moving forward. Many a great song died from lack of this.
