Lyrics
Like a warrior that fights
And wins the battle
I know the taste of victory
Though I went through some nights
Consumed by shadows
I was crippled emotionally
Somehow I made it through the heartache
Yes I did. I escaped.
I found my way out of the darkness
I kept my faith (I know you did), kept my faith
When the river was deep I didn't falter
When the mountain was high I still believed
When the valley was low it didn't stop me, no no
I knew you were waiting.
I knew you were waiting for me
With an endless desire
I kept on searching
Sure in time our eyes would meet
Like the bridge is on fire
The hurt is over,
One touch and you set me free
No, I don't regret a single moment,
No, I don't (I know you don't) looking back
When I think of all those disappointments
I just laugh (I know you do), I just laugh
When the river was deep I didn't falter
When the mountain was high I still believed
When the valley was low it didn't stop me
I knew you were waiting.
I knew you were waiting for me
So we were drawn together through destiny (oh, boy)
I know this love we shared was meant to be
I knew you were waiting,
Knew you were waiting
I knew you were waiting,
Knew you were waiting for me
I didn't falter
I still believed
When the valley was low it didn't stop me
I knew you were waiting.
I knew you were waiting for me
I didn't falter
When the mountain was high I still believed
When the valley was low it didn't stop me
I knew you were waiting.
I knew you were waiting for me

Look...I remember when this song came out. I was 23 years old and I knew this was 🔥 back then. I'm watching this video 35 years later and the gravity of this situation is hitting me hard. Back then, these were two _highly_ respected singers in their respective genres with only tenure separating them. Aretha earned her crown decades before, and George was the relative new kid, but his talent out-distanced his years. At the time, it was an unexpected pairing, but it only took one listen to realize this was something very special. It's music like this that makes me miss the '80s so much...

I love the montage behind them playing with other great duet singers: Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell; Sonny & Cher and Ike & Tina. I also like the montages of Aretha and George performances/ videos. ❤ And George Michael was so gorgeous. 🥰 Rest in paradise Aretha and George. 🕊️ 🎶

George was living the dream then, I tell ya. He was maybe 24, 25 years old, on top of the world with Wham!, and got to do a duet with the Queen of Soul. It just doesn't get any better than that.

@MM-hq2xb 2 года назад

He was living the dream. He seemed very happy and then something changed with him. It wasn’t the thrill he had thought it would be. He would have been much happier doing his music without promoting any of it. Can’t say I blame him. The media and some fans were out for blood.

@johnhunter2294 2 года назад

@@MM-hq2xb When you get to be as big as he was, you're not a musician any more, you're a product. I don't think he liked that. He wanted to just go on like he had been, making his music his way, but the Powers that Be™ wanted him to go in different directions. I really believe he'd have been happier just going back to clubs and playing small gigs. Fame is a prison in a lot of ways.

So in 1963 when she was pregnant with her first born child, she named me Aretha Regina Chamblee. At the time she had not married yet!!!! The man she married was a sorry excuse for a step-father to me. He treated me like shit, now he's six feet under,died from cancer 😠!!!! But my mom is a breast cancer survivor and she is 78 years old.🙌 Praise God for having her in my life this long!!! I have two half siblings, they are his and are grown now!! My father died in Zebulon NC at his home at the age of 58 years old. I was his only child, and he loved me I miss him so much 😢😢💔.

Agreed. Years ago I used to run into the producer of this song from time to time. (Narada Michael Walden) One time I asked him about the recording. He said George was pretty nervous about singing with Aretha. And she was aware and did not just want to blow away the poor young guy with her vocals. Narada said when he got his desired vocals from George he kept wanting to do it again. Narada had to convince him that everything was fine he had gotten what he wanted. And that was a fact because it turned out beautifully!
