      I think he was underappreciated in the US. He was adored in the UK and the rest of the world. He won numerous Awards and also sold over a hundred and fifteen million records in his lifetime. Not to mention he was awarded as the most played artist for a period of 20 years straight on British radio. That's no small feat, considering all the other British acts that you're up against.

      Fair point - I can only speak from a US perspective.
      I still maintain that considering his immense success in the 80s to mid 90s, he fell hard out of favor afterward. ✌️

      which has got all the emotion and the range in it. I have many happy memories of me as a young man trying and completely failing to sing Kissing a Fool and One More Try :)

    With or without reverb, George Michael IS one of the best live singer/performers, EVER. It really was too bad that he was "associated" with a blend of the 80's disco/dance scene and "pop" music, because his range allowed him to perform ANY genre of music. He knocked me dead with his rendition of "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me", which happened to be my brother's funeral mass song. Fil, I'm sorry... I'm not a musician, so I don't always appreciate the accompaniment, but I really appreciate your analyses... it helps me gain even more appreciation for musicians and what they can do. Thanks!

    Sorry for the very late comment Fil. I decided to have a quick search after watching your analysis of Karen Carpenter tonight to see if you had done anything with George’s voice.
    I never realised just how great George’s voice was till the Freddie tribute. From then I got into his music quite a bit. Went to see his 25 tour and took 3 generations of family with me such was his appeal to all ages. The auditorium fell to absolute silence as the intro started to “The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face” cover, you could hear a pin drop when George’s bell like voice was not ringing out. I just stood there with tears running down my face such was that power to switch off a dancing, singing audience and deliver such a performance to wide open mouths and eyes - the missus and mother in law were quite shocked at my reaction, but it really got me.
    Some of his stuff that you reference like Mother’s Pride shows his astonishing vocal capability, especially the run up towards the end (all the husbands all the sons etc) - maybe one for the digital vocal analyser. I remember singing Praying for Time off that album in a karaoke bar in Majorca one year (bit different from the usual old standards belted out I thought) and it is such a brilliant song that the people moving around in the street outside just stopped to listen. I doubt many had heard it before. Bloody enormous crowd that night who kept requesting more George songs. Loads of fun.

In my opinion, George doesn't have a single bad song. All of his tracks connect with me on a level I haven't experienced before. George Michael has changed the way I look at music.

I have loved and followed George from a very young age and to have such a great talent as he was to leave us at such a young age is in itself, very unfortunate for his loyal fans of the music he created. As Andrew Ridgeley said in his tribute to George during the Brit Awards 2017, “A Supernova in a Ferment of Shining Stars” was a very emotional but fitting tribute to such a great musician as George Micheal.

    Very much appreciate your tribute to Mr George and your obvious admiration for him as a musician, singer, songwriter and composer/arranger. He was a HUGE musical talent who ALWAYS strove to exceed expectations in recordings and in live performances, the consummate professional and a true British Gent. He was hounded by a few too many scandals/embarrassments, but he handled them as well as anyone could, given the media frenzy in what could have been fatal blows to his career. The humiliation must have hurt him, being the fodder of late night comedy. But he answered inquiries straight on, and with the fun/funky “Let’s Go Outside.” Creatively, With a little wink and a big willingness to laugh at his misdeeds, but not apologize. George Michael started out as a teen pop star churning out light, fun perfect- for- MTV fare; who knew he would throw off the marketing and music video productions, go back to the music, grow so immensely as an artist, and write songs that meant something to him and were deeply emotional and personal. in his “Older” songs he shares his sorrow, and loss of probably the love of his life taken away by AIDS. Everything about his music coalesces, deepens, matures. He had long since achieved superstar success; he’s making music now for himself. Beautifully.
    And that performance is quintessential George Michael. technically, he could not be better AND he is totally connected to himself in the moment, to his emotions, as he sings-that mind/ heart synchrony, the human being as a pitch perfect instrument. “I can’t make you Love me,” is one of the most beautifully hauntingly saddest and wisest songs about the human condition in modern music. Abd Mr Michael carries it for us in the saddest most beautiful and loving way to the last note. Delivers it to us As a gift and as his truth. Yes, Mr. Michael carries a lot of Loss and pain with him, and like Billie Holiday or Judy Garland, He can access it easily, resonating with it and sending it our way. He wants you to connect with it. He feels less alone when we open our hearts and let him in. Artists truly give themselves to us and it’s rare. George Michael was medically very fragile at the end of his young life of hard living. He feared aging; many insecurities returned for him related to how he felt about being an ethnic person in Britain, his “look.” . Sadly, tho not isolated, he wasn’t partnered. He died alone in his home on a Christmas morning. God Bless and RIP. You gave so much of yourself and enriched us. It’s tragic when one cannot find a way to adjust to a different life phase. I think he was a lost soul at the end. RIP Sir George.

    I always loved hearing George Michael’s voice. He really did have the voice of an angel. As someone once told me, “true genius is rarely balanced.” That could not be more true with George Michael.

    I’m a huge George Michael fan since the 80s and would like to thank you for appreciating that George was a phenomenal singer songwriter and giving us a professional insight into his career, I’ve seen a few other people on CZcams do this without the knowledge you have thank you 😊

    Thank you so much for your analysis of his voice. His voice is like no other male singer. Others can sing and sing well, but George's voice takes you along on an emotional journey. His version of this song is such a great example. You feel that lyric down in your soul and it's almost a dream like connection. If you know anything about George, you know he was a perfectionist in EVERYTHING he did. His singing included. I have listened to his live performances for over 30 years and never once, did he take his voice somewhere he knew it would not go. Such an utter professionalism. Miss his incredible talent.

    So true in your analyzing of his voice, the first time I Heard this it made me cry. He always sounded like it was from his heart and he felt the song. He was creative in his song writing and he knew the little things to add that made the song stand out and polished. An amazing artists and human being. 🙏👏❤️

    Phil, just tuning into your Channel for the first time. I'm a massive fan of George Michael's music and song writing. He is a voice that I never grow tired of. Makes me sad that a lot of people commented about his tortured life and commented on his talent as a secondary topic..I don't really think any of us can truly know unless we knew him personally. I listened to his interviews throughout his career and he seemed like a man who loved his family and friends and was so grateful to be massively successful. Who doesn't have their ups and downs in their lives?. If every incident or event of our lives was plastered all over the newspapers an exaggerated, we would also look like we had a troubled life. That said, his rendition of a long and winding road is absolutely incredible. I remember the first time I heard it, how it brought me to tears. Perhaps you can analyze that cover?

    Name one current singer that can measure up to George. He sing, arranges, plays multiple instruments, and writes all his music. Name one.

    How many music appreciation Professors follow George Jones with George Michael, and nail it both times. Yesterday I cried into my beer. Today I cried into my Pina Colada.
    See you at the next one.

    It truly is a master class in vocalization and had our world been more open-minded, he would have been as big as Elvis & Michael, as he was massive Elvis level from 1984 to the early 90s. I can't believe how easy it came for him, writing Careless Whisper at 17! LOL His voice was so amazing live, saw him twice on back-to-back nights in Aug 2008, and he was stunning. GM Forever... thanks for the video, good points about the ability of him to just go to where he needed to go vocally, with no worries!
