NEVER KNEW... | George Michael - Careless Whisper (Official Video) REACTION!! 

George Michael wrote this song when he was 17 years old. He created/composed that saxophone riff himself. He arranged and produced this song. He is an incredible "soul" singer. He was the first "white" male to win Best R&B male singer and Best R&B album in the American Music Awards in 1989. He sang duets with Aretha Franklin, Mary J Blige, Whitney Houston, Jody Watley. During Motown Returns To The Apollo concert in 1985, he sang duet of this song with Smokey Robinson and one of Stevie Wonder's song with Stevie himself. He has covered a lot of Stevie Wonder songs with Stevie's blessing! George was an incredible singer, songwriter, composer, arranger and producer. And he was a beautiful human being inside and out. He is sorely missed. RIP, sweet George.

I cried like he was family when he died.

I was dragged by my wife to see him live in Dublin. Although I liked his music, I had no interest in seeing him live...and then I seen him live. What a show! What a performer! What a singer! What an entertainer! When he came back to Dublin, I was there with bells on. May he rest easy!

George can sing! And his delivery is always incredible. Underrated definitely - and missed!

The dude could sing. He had an abundance of talent and between Wham and his solo career he put out tons of hit songs. The sax in this is mesmerizing, love it.

Should listen to George's tribute to Freddie.

Soul has no color! Black White, Brown...Love

Listen to "One More Try" by George Michael it shows his vocal range and the power of his Voice. Plus it's a beautiful song.

Everything She Wants is another good song from him. He was in a group called Wham!

In the 80’s this was everyone’s break up song. Because George came out with more music, we all danced again!

For me, the greatest singer/songwriter of the modern era. He’s what you would call blue-eyed soul. Has duets with Aretha Franklin, Mary J. Blige, and Whitney Houston you must listen to, as well as singing with Stevie Wonder, Smoky Robinson, and Queen for Freddie’s tribute. The classic Don’t Let The Sun Go Down On Me With Elton John is another. ALL you need to react to.

George Michael wrote Careless Whisper, arranged and produced it. He was an incredible talent. Gone too soon.

George Michael was a REAL singer. There are lots of his songs, I think you'll like. 💞

One More Try!! Holy shit boy could sing.

George Michael covered some Freddie Mercury in a live Queen tribute that was off the hook good (Somebody To Love).

George Michael was the man who started Carpool Karaoke w/ James Corden it was his idea and was such a well liked skit they kept it and it just took off. Faith and I'm your Man are my two favorite G.M songs. R.i.P Georgy

Who is George Michael? You just hit a rabbit 🕳 hole!! - Faith - I Want Your Sex - Father Figure - Freedom - Dont Let The Sun Go Down On Me W/ Elton John - Praying For Time

RIP George

George wrote and produced this song and most of his other music. He was extremely talented. If you want to hear how pure and powerful his voice was watch the live version of "One more try" or his live tribute to Freddy Mercury "Somebody to love" or both :)

I grew up in the 80s and George Michael is one of those artists I developed a lifelong attachment to (along with Michael Jackson, Prince, Whitney Houston, Madonna). I still think he has one of the greatest voices I have ever heard. I really wish he was still here blessing us with new music.

George Michael - Faith

My uncle made this video in Miami.

One of George Michael's very best vocals in a career filled with timeless classics...He had a voice so smooth that even whipped butter was jealous. Sadly, He got caught up in all the trappings of being a global icon, which ultimately led up to his demise. His music will be admired as long as there are people to listen to it....RIP George

RIP George. He has an amazing voice!

Everything She Wants is another must listen by George Michael, Wham ❤

George ‘Michael has a great voice...lots of hits.⚡️⚡️⚡️ He sang “Somebody to Love” at the Freddie Mercury tribute concert & was wonderful.🤗 Which reminds me, we’re still waiting on Queen doing “Somebody to Love” live from Montreal 1981🔥🎶🔥

A beautiful person inside and out! He was Greek and British. ❤ Check out his duet with Aretha- I Knew You Were Waiting.

Oh yeah, George Michael was one of the great voices. Classic songs.

I still have a difficult time listening to his music. He had been seriously ill then survived. Then shockingly died on Christmas which was twisted because he has one of the biggest Christmas songs. I've been a fan since I was a kid so it was tough to take. I cried so hard I got a nosebleed. Then the next Christmas whenever I heard "Last Christmas" in a store or something, I wanted to go on a rampage. So sad. And... Michael Jackson had died on his birthday years before so when June 25th comes around every year, I'm just like... 🥺😞😔

His birth name was Georgios Kyriacos Panayiotou. He was an Englishman of Greek descent.

Iconic singer, musician, and writer! One of the best and most memorable. His album “Older is amazing...(was Princess Diana’s favorite)...but all of his music was brilliant. He was particularly relevant throughout the 80-90s. And... you are the Best Leo...you bring a lot of joy and laughter to so many...and are reintroducing so much of this wonderful music to the younger crowd. Bravo Leo🌹

Singers are like people, they come in all varieties. Personally, I like music that sounds good. Great music never grows old.

He is missed. I was heartbroken wen he died on Christmas Day a few years ago. He wrote this at something like 18.

Listen to George sing “ I Can’t Make You Love Me.” Until I heard that song “ Careless Whisper” was my favourite.

George Michael (English: George Michael, real name: Georgios Kyriakos Panagiotou, 25 June 1963 - 25 December 2016) was a British singer, songwriter, lyricist and music producer of Greek Cypriot descent. [36] He became world famous mainly during the 1980s and 1990s, and is considered a very important talent in music even after his death, as he had a wide range of vocals. [37] He has also been described as a soul singer, although his work is closer to pop than soul. [38] It has sold more than 125 million records worldwide. [39]

This is one of the best most rewarding rabbit holes to fall down now we need - Praying for Time, Don't Let the Sun go Down on Me, Somebody to Love, Jesus to a Child, One More Try, You Have Been Loved... there's so many great songs by this man. One of my all time fav artists. He was a legend in his own time, he's deeply missed.

It’s not a movie, it’s his own video

Aw shit! George Michael is awesome. You need to react to George Michael's Freedom! 90. The video is amazing & the song is banging. I Want Your Sex & Faith are also great George Michael songs. Also check out his old group Wham!'s song called Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go.

George Michael is one of the best male vocalist that graced the airwaves. GM live was outstanding. The effortless of that voice still makes me emotional. Saw him live just before WHAM broke up🥺. His version of Queen’s “Somebody to Love” almost makes me feel like I’m being disloyal to Freddie because I love it so much.

George was the man!!! I crushed on him so hard when I was young. Such a gorgeous voice and his songs were songs of my childhood. RIP George❤

I love George Michael, no movie just a video, RIP MY LOVE ❤❤

You can’t not be a fan of George Michael, I miss him so much! ❤️

George Michael is a icon legend this one of many great songs all thought this is one my all-time favorite songs especially with that saxophone this song is a valentines day or grab your girl cable light dinner song to play will get you in the mood.that sax his voice and singing lyrics this song is perfection

"Kissing A Fool" is my favorite George Michael song. Highly underrated, imo!

That was just the video... The 80's where big bucks were spent on videos.

George Michael, my favorite singer ever! Love & miss you, George! Anything George sangs is amazing which happens to be the name of one of his songs, "Amazing"!

I still miss him. 😔

He was beautiful inside and out. I listened to him from the beginning of his career until the end. R.I.P. Father figure is a great song. When he sang with Queen and Elton John, those 2 performances really showcase his voice.

FUN FACT: Wham (George Michael and Andrew Ridgley group before George went solo) had 2 backing singers Pepsi and Shirlie. Shirlie is married to Spandau Ballet band member Martin Kemp since the 80s! 🙌❤

George was one of the best (live) singers and songwriters. Please check out Kissing a Fool.

More George PLEASE!!! Looking forward to your reactions to his 90’s reign!

Oh Leo. You've just landed on my favourite artist, songwriter, musician, producer of all time. First single released as a duo called Wham! When I was 13 (1982). Their first single was Wham Rap (enjoy what you do). This man was a musical genius. Please, give this man your time. It will be worth starting at the beginning and we will give you live performances that are vocally and lyrically brilliant, heartbreaking, funny, sexy and bring out every emotion in between. Lucky to have seen him live twice. Much love and gratitude 🙏

He co-wrote this song with his then-Wham band mate, andrew ridgeley, when they were only 17 years old. It would be his most successful single, which frustrated him because he never understood the appeal of the song since it was about infidelity.

😍 I thought you had done at least one of my baby George's songs before! Even though he was one of the biggest names of the 80s and into the 90s he still didn't get the level of respect that his talents deserved in the wider music audience outside of his fan base. And that was despite many industry accolades. I remember being laughed at by so many people even when he was at the top of his game because they refused to actually listen and pay attention to what he was doing. It was their loss and now that he is gone, so many people are coming out of the wordwork to admit this very thing and people like me who always recognised how superior a vocalist he was is laughing at them becuase we have had his magic for decades. The thing with George is that not only was an exellent creator of his own music, but he is one of the very few performers who can sing the songs that were already fantastic by other amazing artitsts and do them justice or in many cases do them better. And he has also done some of the most iconic duets ever. There is so much to discover and you will get tons of different recs of mostly his most well-known songs but you should watch his performance at the Concert for Hope ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-KciYBWwSkGU.html or MTV Unplugged unplugged george michael mtv or Symphonica ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-OpOQwNTzRWE.html or all! He was one one of the most incredible live singers ever BUT he was also an amazing human who despite his many demons loved people and donated anonymously to so many individual people and charities, the level of which is something that only became public knowledge after his death. Thanks for attending today lecture. 🤣

"Careless Whisper" and "One More Try" are my favorite songs from him. NOTE: The band "Seether" also does a great rock cover of "Careless Whisper."

Careless whisper, Faith, Father Figure, Jesus to a child, Praying for Time, A different Corner, One More Try... All amazing goosebumpy songs worth listening to.

It’s at the end of the first Deadpool movie and then everyone on RU-vid looked this song up. Including myself 🙋‍♂️

George Michael was so brilliant; he wrote his own songs; the amazing part of this song is the saxophone along w/his singing

Oh my Mr. Video, you have just started your education of George Michael 101. He has a golden catalog of music both solo and as duets. Faith, Father Figure, Everything She Wants are just a few. He started out in a group called Wham. Thanks for this very smooth memory.

I'm in Los Angeles. He used to live here in early to late 90's. There was a non-profit organization that was struggling: Project Angel Food (back then when the AIDS crisis was bad, PAF was delivering free food to terminally ill AIDS patients to their homes) and in 1991, George found out about it. He slipped a check for $25,000 and a note under their door and had been secretly donating $50,000 every year to them until his death in 2016! He made them promise secrecy b/c he did not want the attention. After his death, it was revealed and I have been volunteering there since 2017! What a beautiful and humble heart he HAS. What a loss he is to this world!

"THERE WE GO!!" 🤣😂🤣😂 I fell out when you were trying to get a 360 on that white 80s bathing suit 🤭⛵🌅

love him and wham 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Your audience directs you to listen to a good amount of great Artist who have passed away. RIP George 53 years old

George Michael had such a beautiful voice!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Thanks for doing this! He is sadly missed!

This is possibly his most beautiful song. I love this! ♥️

So glad your listening to to my favorite ...George’s voice got better as he got older and he got more Handsome. What a talent we have lost! Thanks George for ALL your amazing songs you have left us. Miss him😞♥️♥️♥️

God bless he was amazing artist He absolutely held his own with Elton John & that it something special

George Michael was a beast with the vocals!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

What a timeless song!!❤️ Always plays on the strings of my heart. RIP George...

Please check out Aretha Franklin and George Michael's, "I knew you were waiting (for me)" Guarenteed goosebumps!! They won a Grammy for the song!! 🥰

George Michael is my ALL TIME FAVORITE male artist of all time.. I crushed SO hard on him in High School!! I tend to name my pets after my musical idols who have passed away. I have a George Michael, Freddie Mercury, Tom Petty and M.J. ❤

Kissing a Fool. And Freedom ‘90… He was amazing.

Watch his video Freedom 90. It's funky as hell and he doesn't even appear in the video--it's all his hot supermodel friends.

Listen to George Michael’s tribute to Freddie Mercury in Somebody to Love during the Freddie Mercury Tribute concert with Queen!

R.I.Paradise Sweet George 🙏 Gone to Soon 💔💔💔

George Michael was an amazing compassionate human being, people need to take time to learn all the ways he graciously gave to everyone. Sony wronged him in so many ways! He is an icon as a artist, humanitarian and was a very compassionate person. He donated millions of dollars unanimously to charities, research, individuals, and more. He deserved way more respect than what he received especially from the US, which is very sad to me since I am an American. He left us with the absolute most amazing music for decades to come. Thank You George for who you were and what you have given us. ❤️❤️❤️

George Michael is my favorite male singer. His voice is like no other. I’m happy you finally got to his music. One of my many favorites is Star People (MTV Unplugged). Luv ya ☺️

Careless whisper cover by SEETHER is a must listen

George Michael had so many great songs.... He has one of the best voices.

He wrote that song on the bus when he was a teenager! George Michael is a national treasure in Britain and one of Britain’s most successful and respected artists of the past 40 years. He had enormous commercial success in America around the late 80s with the Faith album. He faded in the US but in Britain and Europe, he continued to be incredibly successful after that and was undoubtedly one of the most adored public figures in Britain of the 80s 90s and 2000s. Everyone seemed to love him - male, female, gay, straight. He died very suddenly and shockingly on Christmas Day 2016. There are so many extraordinary vocal performances to listen to and watch but probably the very best is the ‘Live and Plugged’ tv show performance of the song “you have been loved“. It really is something else. It’s probably one of the best vocal performances of the entire era.

SUCH A BEAUTIFUL SONG CONTINUE TO REST IN PEACE GEORGE YOU SURE ARE MISSED

Still a MASTERPIECE! But in my opinion he turned to be a more authentic songwriter and singer when he had his coming out. Check all tracks from the album „Older“. Especially Fast love, spinning the wheel and Jesus to a child. Love your reaction 👍😃

Why's he so smooth with it!? HE'S GODDAMN GEORGE MICHAEL!!!

He was in all definitions... a star. He could sing, dance, act... Great voice and could back it up! He's got several songs that are just as good. Thanks for the reaction video again as this brought me back!

Back in the day George could’ve cheated on me then sing me this song and all is well again 😂😂😂 George was the shizzz!

I'm first!! Yea!!!!!! 🔥 Foo Fighters - "The Pretender"

Remember the WHAM video, Leo? George Michael was the lead singer/dancer in that duo. 👏👏👏🥰👏👏👏 Careless Whisper” Was Inspired by Michael’s Cheating Heart 2 Soon after they decided to start their own pop group in the early 1980s, the two collaborated on a No. 1 song that would become a radio staple for decades. Ridgeley composed the minor-chord-based progressions; Michael supplied the lyrics that imbued emotion and regret. “Yog decided to draw on his own recent teenage experience,” Rigeley recalls. “The tale he crafted of a cheating lover, hemmed in by guilt, was inspired by feelings prompted by two-timing his girlfriend, Helen Tye, a year previously.” Turns out that while Michael was in a relationship with the tall brunette, he reconnected with a girl named Jane -- who previously rejected him because of his looks -- and the two started going out on the sly. The ballad served as his confession. 3. Michael Came Out to Ridgeley in 1983 In a chapter titled “Revelations,” Ridgeley recalls the moment that his friend, who had now rechristened himself George Michael, came out to him. They were in Ibiza, Spain, to film the video for their new song “Club Tropicana” and Michael phoned him one morning and asked for a chat. With backup singer Shirlie Holliman in the room for support, Ridgeley says that his friend -- who had gone a few years without dating -- shared the news. His words, per Ridgeley: “’I didn’t know whether to tell you this ... but I’m going to: I’m gay.” Ridgeley’s nonchalant response? “Oh, OK. Well, that’s a bit of a surprise!” After the confession, “He definitely seemed more relaxed, probably because he realized it had made no difference to me whatsoever ... George seemed happy with the announcement. And the three of us went to breakfast as if nothing had happened. And, in truth, it hadn’t.” Just some info., about them. George went on th have a solo career. ☺️

George Michael was a kind soul. He is missed by many. Father Figure is a good song and Faith

Try I want your sex by George M. It was super contoversial at the time and super popular as well. It was always on the radio in 1987/88

George Michael: PRAYING FOR TIME - You should check this song out

George Michael...... oh how I cried Christmas 2016 when they released that he had passed away. LOVE all his music. But, he was a VERY amazing person. The last thing he done. He donated enough money to help a couple become pregnant. They had tried a lot to get pregnant ( I forget what it’s called in Britain) but their money had run out and they got a call telling them of an anonymous donor putting the money up for them to receive the treatment. It was successful. He passed away and the couple were told he donated the money. In the interview I saw, the lady said she was going named the child after him, George or Georgia. Check out Freedom. That’s my cleaning song.

RIP 🙏 GEORGE MICHAEL 😢 BEAUTIFUL VOICE

You'd enjoy his video for "Freedom" also check out his band "Wham!" "Last Christmas" "Faith" and "Wake Me Up (Before You Go Go)" are fun songs too.

Please do One More Try. His vocals are straight 🔥🔥

George Michael was one of the princes of the 80s in my opinion. That list of princes and princesses of pop for me were Michael Jackson, George Michael, Prince, and Madonna. Rick Astley was for a short time. You've been rickrolled. :)

Vocals extraordinaire!

Duran Duran- hungry like the wolf! Also, George Michael was half of “WHAM!” Seriously, you gotta hit up Duran Duran!

"George Michael, Elton John - Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me (Live)". MUST REACT TO PLEASE.

That bridge gets to me every time! I used to be able to sing this song well, but due to oral cancer I can't sing anymore, god this really hit my heart this morning ♥

I was in my early twenties when George and Whsm came on the scene...the best years of my life listening to music of thag time
