George Michael. Your favourite clips, songs, videos and memories.

[Fresta]

I just wanted to start a thread where fans can share their favourite things about George. Share video links, lyrics, rare footage. Tell us why you liked him. Have you met him? Share your memories. Anything really.

Please, no speculation about how he died here.

I bloody worshipped him from being about 12 years old. I remember liking Wham! music and hearing it at a youth club I went to, and then one day I saw his picture in my dad's Daily Star and it was LOVE! It was 1984.

I've just shared this clip on another thread, I think it's one of the sexiest performances I ever saw him do, I love the dance moves in this.

I love the way he speaks to them, and their tails wagging in unison

'Do you not read the papers love?'

This is so interesting

I don't know who put this tribute together but it's heartfelt and inspiring to watch. He really was a genuinely lovely and sincere man, so sad he's gone.

I used to have this gorgeous picture on my bedroom wall when I was a teen.

The legs are epic And George literally is a ray of sunshine here..

Link fail. Doesn't seem to work on Vimeo. Anyway it was the Father Figure video

It's all the charities who are coming forward to say he'd asked for no publicity but made huge donations that make me well up. I'm rubbish at linking things (apologies) but if you look at "UK Thal Society" on Twitter as just one example, you'll see what I mean. In an age of self-aggrandisement, I think he really stood out as someone who helped others because it was the good thing to do, rather than because it made him look good. An admirable man.

Loved him performing with Queen at the Freddie tribute concert.

Father Figure remains my favourite single.

I remain convinced that "I Knew You Were Waiting For Me" is the best pop duet of all time... (maybe if the Freddie Mercury/Michael Jackson track gets released I'll change my mind)

Have you all heard the unreleased single that's on YouTube? Called "This Kind of Love". Absolutely beautiful song. Written with Elton John apparently. Really hope it's released a single.

Can I add this one? ' Nothing looks the same in the light ' a Wham song but a sign of things to come from George.Beautiful and heartfelt, one of my favourite songs

I'm too young to have been a Wham fan at the time (born 81) but I've loved them/George forever. I taught his cousins during my first teaching job and was dead starstruck! My friend spoke to them on the phone (she works at The Wright Stuff) and said he was loveliness personified.

So many good songs, I can't choose. Love Everything She Wants, Young Guns, A Different Corner, Club Tropicana. I heard Listen Without Prejudice again the other day: awesome.

Love my situation, I remember arching it when I was a child and thought he was hit then . I read a interview with the model a while ago where she apparently thought it was clear to her he was gay. Wonder whether that just meant he didn't fancy her and she was use to men who did? Not that it matters anyway.

Watching not arching!

That's interesting ceebee, it did look to me like he was putting his all into it but I guess not..

I thought so too Lovemysituation.
Here is the interview

Thanks ceebee, it's odd what she says, as he was with a girl for a few years at that time, and surely there must have been at least a little attraction there? I'm sure getting to kiss him 37 times made up for it though

t.co/huB1UaiHUt A piece Andrew linked on his twitter a few days ago, finally figured out how to post it

Apparently he is going to be honoured at the Brits in February along with Bowie.

That's a lovely article, thanks for posting it!

Him being his wonderful self

Yes, I thought so too destiny, if only a certain paper would take notice...
