Actually think I'm talking rubbish, there was a Radio 2 viewers vote-
Careless Whisper was number 1,

A Different Corner was number 2.

I loved Fast Love too, reminds me of a holiday in Turkey at the time it was out!! Wink

A different corner is pretty dreary as George Michael songs go. I hate the beat of it.

Oy Rogue- was I right with U2?

I love A Different Corner.. I couldn't stop singing it when George Michael died. I also love Fast Love.
Honeyroar · 03/01/2022 20:48

I love Fast Love.
The lyrics to A Different Corner are lovely but it’s the “Der dum, dump, der dum dump” that bugs me!

NeedToKnow101 · 03/01/2022 20:49

Oh Happy New Year btw.. I have to close the thread now... only 20 posts to go!

You take the grey skies outta my way
You make the sun shine brighter than Doris Day

When you've been loved
When you know it holds such bliss
Then the lover that you kissed

I can't fault it, Honey, I find it haunting.

[quote TheresAStarmanWaitingInTheSky]@Phos thank you, did you I read recently that was voted the best George Michael song? It's a lovely song but not my favourite of his. He was so talented and generous.
I got free tickets to see him years ago as he gave out free tickets for NHS staff for his concerts, in 2007.[/quote]
He was just an amazing soul. Did you go?

NeedToKnow101 · 03/01/2022 20:55

Nothing left to make me feel small
Luck has left me standing so tall
80s

Honeyroar · 03/01/2022 20:56

I’d have loved to have seen him in concert. Or even better I’d have liked him as a passenger on the aircraft.

As now can't reveal the mystery of tomorrow
But in passing we'll grow older every day
Just as all is born is blue
You know what I say is true
That I'll be loving you always

Original 70s, version that fits my theme, yes theme! Is 90s

I might have mentioned this on a previous thread, but a side reason I DO NOT LIKE my brother, is that he got invited to an after-party at George Micheal's house in Highgate (a mile or two from where I live), and he DID NOT FUCKING INVITE ME!!!!!
NeedToKnow101 · 03/01/2022 21:02

Always George and Mary J Bilge
Correct and correct to Gold Honey.. got the theme?

And now you tell me that you're having my baby
I'll tell you that I'm happy if you want me to

I love this one..

Honeyroar · 03/01/2022 21:04

No I thought the theme was George, but Sp B messed that up.

Honeyroar · 03/01/2022 21:04

Everything she wants - Wham

Honeyroar · 03/01/2022 21:05

I’ll try to think of a few George ones I like too
