Wham! - Nothing Looks the Same In the Light (Official Audio)

[@rebeccasanchez7067]

Every song is a page in his journal. So full of heartache.

[@byronbenguche]

The fact that George Michael was only 19 when he wrote and produced this is mind blowing this dude was major talented 😎😎😎😎

[@ElvarMasson]

This song was - along with four other songs on this album - co-produced by the very experienced Steve Brown. May he rest in peace

Pure Talent

I love the Sampling at 1:50 so groovy

[@warrenfuchs2304]

George was Born a Genius Jewish mother gave him inspiration

[@jennifersaunders3745]

I can see why he got the best songwriter award. He was a phenomenal songwriter, producer, and singer. I really miss George. I just watched the Wham documentary and I was impressed with it.

[@Faisal0729]

very nostalgic. I grew up with Wham

[@warrenfuchs2304]

Indeed he was the full package songwriter produced all the music he sang to and Vocals

[@catlovr01]

This song makes me cry it’s so good

[@Mighty_Meng]

One of the greatest morning-after songs of all time. The first time I heard this was in 1997 or so after a wild night at Palladium NYC. Retired to a new-friend-not-friend’s apartment. Woke up not awake and was asked to put on some music, found Fantastic in a pile of records, put this on randomly and immediately fell in love with it. Cuddled up on the couch and listened a few more times while we watched the sun creep over the windowsill. Absolutely blows my mind that this song is now 40 years old.

[@BeyDreamer101]

Dang '97 u were missing out

[@dannyc343]

Heard this track through my Sony Walkman at aged 8 years and I knew it was deep even that age! It shaped me as a musician to this day! I love you George. Xxx

[@brianzaictgroup4790]

At the age of 50 I discovered this wonderful song by Wham! It was like George was still alive for me.. and he wrote another brilliant jewel!! (with ❤ - Andrea)

[@evanjazzista]

George played every instrument except the drums on this song. The synth bass line is *unbelievably* groovy, and I love his piano solo.

[@timmy841212]

And he was only 19! Mind blown...

[@cristianabanchetti8652]

Yes...my dad always told me that. That’s also why this song was never performed on live, maybe it was performed just 1 or 2 times.

[@andreasantonocito6541]

@@cristianabanchetti8652 peccato , un brano che col tempo nessuno e neanche Michael la riproposto , forse la registrazione in studio e portarlo dal vivo , avrebbe perso di sfumature magiche e atmosfere di suono uniche.

[@sometimesitstays]

Wow.. legend 🙈💗🤓🙌

[@ElvarMasson]

...except, in this particular song, Andrew Ridgeley played the guitar, Ann Dudley played the keyboard, Brad Lang played bass, Robert Ahwai played guitars, Graham Broad played the drums, Andy Mackintosh played the saxophone, Bert Ezard and J. Healy played trumpets, Dee C. Lee, Lynda Hayes, Shirlie Holliman and Josie James sang backing vocals

[@SpartanBookhead]

There is so much vulnerability in these lyrics. So much emotional intelligence for a 19-year-old. One of George Michael's first excellent songs.

[@enriquetheprofessor]

I think this is my favorite on the album, along with "A Ray of Sunshine"

[@v.b6028]

Me too. Most of my friends have never heard of this song. I love it.

That bassline takes you right back.. He wrote another track kinda similar to this one, it’s called “Blue”...with yet another incredible bassline.

[@austinreid5032]

'There's a danger in a stranger'...how true this is...pop music at its best...George you were (and stille are) the best human voice ever...

[@karenwhitehouse9291]

Agreed 100% ❤

[@Tazz431]

He says this is several songs. He had a problem with cheating and being with strangers. The song, Spinning the Wheel is actually from his pov, not the one being cheated on. It's about AIDS and HIV and a partner who cheats, but it's him who cheats and is concerned about HIV and giving it to his partner. Amazing song

[@inessalamanca6249]

Such an underrated song🥰😍

[@yamo1967]

A wonderful song - like Blue that shows Georges talent very well as a songwriter. Not for the lyrics but for the music and sound. Thank you George.

[@mn-cassini]

@@yamo1967 I think the lyrics are deep and connect with reality. Who did not happen that things are not the same in daylight

My favorite song by the duo! When I DJ’d, it was always my final song.

[@bartlemy]

I used to drive our Ford Cortina in Bushey, Watford in 88 in the summer nights, listening to this and all the soft Wham and Geroge Micheal tracks. They were special times

[@johnbuss6926]

So did I in 88 and then park up with all 4 doors open at the bus stop in the village I live and my mate's sitting on a small wall drinking..sadly some have now passed away but this brings it all back...best day's..

I have listened to this song since I was about 15. It really made me feel like I wasn't alone with what I was going through at the time. I am pretty old now lol.... But every time I hear it I go right back to those days with my first love. I still love it and can still relate. Missing George Michael. What a beautiful legacy of music he left for us. Certainly quite a gifted and compassionate man. ❤

[@ktpuss]

@@eula6016 - Yes, same here! I was 13/14 when this was out, loved it...the memories! Miss George so much too, he’s left us so much music thankfully but wish he was still here and happy in life x

Im born 2008 but my heart and souls in the 80s

[@Vcenxzzz]

This song always makes me tear up, the lyrics, the rhythm always makes me emotional❤ I love you Wham

[@setidepp4853]

Amazing to hear it now with the background of when and why he composed it... George Michæl, the best!

[@restinte]

i'm so sad that i didn't discover this song until recently! my dad loves george michael and i grew up listening to faith but somehow i missed so much wham!... this song is so enchanting lol

[@ichabodcrane2487]

I agree. Wham! was unique in the 80s. It was very bad for us young fans when the band broke up in 1986. Although GM quickly launched a mega-successful solo career, when I heard the album Faith for the first time, it was clear to me that the Jewish times were over. He had grown up and so had we. That's why it still makes a big difference to me today whether I watch Wham! or listen to GM. Wham! For me means youth and impartiality. It's a completely different attitude to life.

[@Tazz431]

Every song is filled with his soul

[@LucyTurton]

Nothing Looks The Same In The Light... You know sometimes when you hear a song, and it reaches into your heart, and it squeezes all the juice out? Upon hearing it for the first time, I then played it over and over and over again. It is a beautiful gem buried amongst the boppy chart hits of the album Fantastic. It also twinkled a little of what George Michael was and will always be, a kind, generous, caring, honest, brilliant songwriter and talented man. Xx

[@austinreid5032]

The thing is with this song back in the 80s we all experienced this. Its a brilliant song about a universal subject of being young

[@Purpleheart888]

Indeed, nothing look the same in the light but sometimes it is better, believe me.

[@austinreid5032]

The greatest singer songwriter of my generation bar none.

[@mariaalfano1963]

[@lassie123456]

Underrated at the time. I loved this album. Happy days.

[@chrislynch-pp5zk]

Still miss him so much. Memories of my youth and first love (Jennifer). Blue (armed with love) then this song. George was so talented, taken too soon. RIP

[@MrDodgedollar]

This track is proof that GM was a writer up with the legends … Even the Beatles at this stage probably were behind George M.. What A Profound Gem of a Track.. snicked away inna debut album.. It literally blows your socks off 40 years later

[@Skydrops6]

About 6 months before the video for Club Tropicana, George Michael had stayed over at a guy’s house, who had tried to have sex but George was too scared, but, “I realised that I wanted to stay in the bed for the night, I wanted to be close to this guy, which had never happened before. And I wrote the song about that, that’s what that song was about.” Netflix documentary 2023, 21:45. Nothing looks the same in the light. Thank you for your light George.

[@themanfromvolantis]

Its a very good documrntary isnt it. I was glued to it. I have always adored both of them. I used to ask Mum to do my hair like one or the other. After seeing the Netflix film though...... My respect for Andrew has gone off the chart. What a legend. All he ever wanted was for his best mate to be happy. Even accepting and supporting George's decision to go solo.

[@aleccopile]

What I like about George's songwriting is that he wrote from the heart and reflected on what was going on in his life. Even the more intimate subjects he wrote about, he packaged them so skillfully that very few people could guess who he was writing about.

[@adonaiyah2196]

tbh i know the feeling

[@TaztekStudios]

@@aleccopile thats what i do on my main channel where i post all my songs half the time im talking about one person , but i put other things into the song that hides it

[@suzyhill802]

I love this! No one can summon up emotions and memories like George, through his lyrics and voice like butter. This song is the essence of youth and all the struggles it entails! Absolute tragedy he has gone 😥💔 26.9.20

[@NPGLAMB]

This song moves me to tears. So much emotion.

[@falldownhard]

[@panismith1544]

Souly missed..but his music legacy will live for ever.

[@queeninbetween7725]

George had an interesting evolution. I believe he was a different George here. So deep and confident in his writing, yet young. Like an old soul, but exploring adulthood. I loved his songs, his look, his drive at this time in life (19-20yo). He wasn’t his full Wham! character George yet, or Faith/MTV George yet. Pure, unadulterated, musical prodigy. And deep/open hearted kid/human. ❤

[@moonlight8167]

Yes, I agree with you, he was an incredibly deep person

[@richardcoles2432]

[@katalintoth2787]

Forever George Michael and Wham !!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@jlcjr]

Bought this album in late summer of '83, and felt something wonderful was happening in the world, being a teenager so much was changing but staying the same. That winter, I felt this song for the first time when Eddie Enriquez and I had quiet fumbles, in the darkness of a den, at my friend Elizabeth's after hours (teen club night) party. Nothing much developed between Eddie and I, however, my love for George's lyrics and singing took root; and it's a sequoia of love today.

[@mwsc]

This song and Blue really takes me back to the 80s while I was growing up. Miss George very much.

[@GYMCENTRAL1]

I watch you breathe, I cannot sleep, I touch your hair, I kiss your skin, And hope the morning sun won't wake you too soon. For when you wake, And look at me, You never know, You just might see, Another boy who crept in your room Take your time (that's what you told me) Take your time But I fell head first, and I just don't know what to do. Nothing looks the same in the light, Only a fool like me would take to heart, The things you said you meant last night. Nothing looks the same in the light, I'll keep my feet firm on the ground. Nothing looks the same in the light, There's danger in a stranger, With a warm hand and a kiss so right. Nothing looks the same in the light, It's been a pleasure, see you around I watch the sun, Upon the sheets. I hear a car, Out on the street, And gently pull you close, it's over too soon. What can I do, But wait and see, Hold on to you, Please stay with me, Because you're the first, and I want to stay here with you. Nothing looks the same in the light, Only a fool like me would take to heart, The things you said you meant last night. Nothing looks the same in the light, I'll keep my feet firm on the ground. Nothing looks the same in the light, There's danger in a stranger, With a warm hand and a kiss so right. Nothing looks the same in the light, It's been a pleasure, see you around

[@sergioalmasy8722]

I have just listened to this track on KZbin for the first time since I last heard it on audiocassette way back in 1984!! 36 years! And it was one of my favourite tracks!

[@LeeThrough]

This song is yet another love incident in his life; he was really so interesting in how complex he was. One one hand, he valued his privacy and guarded it like mad and on the other hand, he so beautifully expressed his personal pain, hurt, love, disappointments in ways I've never heard another songwriter ever reveal and communicate. This is the song he wrote about the night he mentions in the Wham! documentary about being at a guy's house and the guy wanted to have sex with him but George said he was too afraid to but wanted to stay the night in bed with him anyway. This is the incident that provoked him to tell Andrew and Shirlie about his being gay. I marvel over how he could put such emotional experiences in such tangible lyrics all wrapped up in the move beautiful creative package. He was so bloody unique and special ❤

[@cybertaiga9534]

One of my favourite Wham songs and definitely the most underrated of all their tracks, eclipsed by Wake Me Up, Freedom, Last Christmas, etc. Anyway, this is so brilliant and mysterious in every sense.
