The catchy song addressed his struggles with identity, artistic growth and stardom in a meaningful way. And because Michael refused to appear on-camera, the song ended up with an iconic music video that brought the worlds of fashion and entertainment together. Christy Turlington, Cindy Crawford, Naomi Campbell, Linda Evangelista, and Tatjana Patitz all top supermodels of the time.

Oh George 😢 Still can’t believe he’s gone, such a talent. This video makes more sense if you’ve seen Faith. The leather jacket, guitar & jukebox all feature in Faith when Sony were trying to keep him as a sexy pop boy but he wanted to be so much more. So in Freedom 90 all those items get blown up to symbolise that George wasn’t going to be that anymore, he wasn’t even going to be in his own videos. For Freedom 90 the top supermodels of that era were used instead. David Fincher directed it and he also did Madonna’s Vogue, Christina Aguilera’s Dirrty and would later make lots of Hollywood movies like Fight Club & Se7en.

As a gay teenager when this first dropped I was completely taken with the lyrics of the song especially after George finally came out of the closet I completely understood what the words meant when he says things like there’s some thing you should know there’s something I should’ve told you in addition to just wanting his freedom from the record company and from the image they had built around him he was tired and ready to be his Person. I still love this song today The world is a lonelier place without his talent in it

George said at the time he was two people, the public one the record company built and then there was who he really was and it was tearing him apart and the rest is history. I personally thought that he was very brave to come out at that time.✌

@TrevorPalmatiershow 2 года назад

This was his story from Wham, to the Faith image period and how he doesn't want to live that way any longer. He blows up the jukebox and guitar from the Faith video, burns the leather Faith jacket and refuses to appear in this video so uses the world's top supermodels to lip sync in the video. He's rejecting fame and manufactured images and says it's time for him to get "some happy". Iconic, legendary and classic.

@joelscottarnold3262 2 года назад

It’s amazing to me that while George didn’t want to be a “pretty face” anymore- he ushered in the decade of the supermodel. It was no small feat getting all these ladies in one video ( almost all of them worked for different agencies ) they all appeared on a British Vogue cover together, and that’s what inspired George to use them. BTW the ladies were paid four times more than the men in this video ( and the guys were asked to do a day of reshoots for free ). The reason for the “Freedom 90” title was to not confuse the song with Wham’s! “Freedom”. Also- this video was directed by David Fincher, and Claudia Schiffer ( also one of the biggest models of the 90’s ) was asked to participate- but, her agent very flatly said “No”. The lineup of models was repeated on the Versace runway the same year and is considered a milestone moment in fashion!!

@JanS1 2 года назад

These models appeared in many shows together over the several years that they prevailed as the first (and only, IMO) "Supermodels" in fashion. They were already very famous when they did this video. George had seen them on a British Vogue cover together and because he didn't want to be photographed or filmed himself at the time, he knew instantly that he wanted that exact group of women for the video. The music, the video, now iconic.

@joelscottarnold3262 2 года назад

@@JanS1 - I share your opinion about the “Supermodels” title 100%.

@SunsetRogue 2 года назад

To clarify some things: Christy Turlington was signed with Ford Models. The other four were with Elite Models. Tatjana Patitz did not appear at the Versace Autumn '91/Winter '92 show, which left Linda, Cindy, Naomi, and Christy to lip-sync the song on the runway. I was a '90s kid. I don't know about now, but modeling and porn were the only industries where women were paid a lot more than the men. The supermodels deserved every penny because they generated as much attention as movie stars and were very profitable for designers. Male models were often used as accessories in the fashion world. Amazing song, amazing video and it's no surprise why Freedom still holds up.

@joelscottarnold3262 2 года назад

@@SunsetRogue - oh- they deserved the money without question. The fact that billions were made with their image in the 90’s in print, television and fashion shows- the salaries were more than well deserved. I was an 80’s/90’s guy myself. I remember the Versace show well, and knew it was “the trinity” with Crawford- but, it was also cementing the marriage of pop culture with the fashion/modeling world. These girls became the 90’s in all it’s glory, and I, as many gay men did- ate it up with a spoon. Rebecca Davies got all the agencies on one schedule , and the rest is HISTORY.

@ashleydixon4613 2 года назад

The use of supermodels (several of which were his friends) instead of him-his pretty face- was more ironic than a lot of people realize. Using individuals who are paid for their looks and their ability to often model some of the most ridiculous clothing from avant-garde designers-and having to try to make it look good... The models were completely representing him when he was still under the thumb of the music industry and exactly what they wanted out of him.

@marieneu264 Год назад

OMG it broke my heart when George Michael passed away, fantastic artist. From his 1990 album Listen Without Prejudice, the 90 was added to stop confusion from Wham's previous song also named Freedom. For me personally, it's an iconic music video, Supermodels were absolutely huge in the '90s, paired with the fact that George didn't want to appear in the video due to artistic differences with his record company and setting fire to the things from the 1988 Faith video because it's not how he wanted to appear to his demographic just seals it for me.

The whole 2nd album “Listen Without Prejudice” is one of his great ones. This video is filled with very popular 90s Supermodels. At this time this is where he put his foot down about where he wanted his music to go. The record company wanted him to make records like his debut which sold and made millions. He sued and didn’t make another record for years..which happened to be next one of his last recordings.

This was George's FU to the record company that "owned him" by contract. He had all of these supermodels (who were also in similar contractual situations) lip-sync the song for him. The burning of the jacket and the blowing up of the jukebox were references to him moving away from iconic images of previous videos (that were huge hits for him under his contracts).

Amen! This was George Michael's emancipation song. The lyrics brilliantly describe how he no longer wanted to be a pop music pretty boy and wanted to express himself more.

@ashleydixon4613 2 года назад

My favorite George Michael song too! As others have said, there’s a lot of symbolism in the video and the entire song is about his finally breaking free from the industry that had been running the show since he and best friend Andrew Ridgeley we’re just teenagers, in Wham! As one of the lyrics says, “heaven knows we sure had some fun boy, what a kick, just a buddy and me...” Andrew and George had been best friends growing up, and I’m sure they did have a lot of fun at the beginning, before their handlers told them what they were going to do. Although of course George what is the more famous and continued for years in a music career I think Andrew was-is-the luckier of the two: marrying a member of Bananarama and settling in an old cottage on the coast of Cornwall, just surfing and playing golf, and turning up to do things like Top Gear when he feels like it. Basically living a pretty quiet and content life off his royalties. Referring back to GM’s days before his musical “freedom,” many people didn’t get the full irony of who is chosen to lip-synch throughout this video: THE supermodels of the moment (both the women and men). Individuals who make their living off their looks, being dressed in other people’s creations (which are often hideous, but they still have to make it look great), using their talent to spread someone else’s message. Wasn’t hard to convince them to do it, since almost all were already friends with GM anyway. And of course- symbolically blowing up the jukebox and guitar, and burning the jacket, from the “Faith” video...

This was a definitive song for George in his attempt to free himself from the grip of the record company that had a choke hold on him. If you listen to the lyrics you start to comprehend they wanted him to fit a certain image, some of the items shown here, Jukebox, jacket and such were part of that image that had built his success. Also George was eye candy for the ladies in his appearance and had massive sex appeal but was actually a closet gay man behind the scenes. This song was a cry of wanting freedom from all of that. He honestly was an incredible talent and icon of the industry, and is still missed. Great reaction you two, all the best!

They all started and began their careers the early to mid-1980s and became Supermodels around 1988. "By the late 1980s, Campbell, Turlington and Evangelista, formed a trio known as the "Trinity", who became the most recognizable and in-demand models of their generation. Evangelista started her career in 1984 and was well-known on the runway working for Karl Lagerfeld and Gianni Versace. She became world famous in 1987 as the face of Revlon's "The Most Unforgettable Women in the World" campaign. Campbell's fame started when she got on the cover of British Elle in 1986 as a 16 year old. She did catwalk's for Isaac Mizrahi and Gianni Versace. She was the first black woman to be on the cover of French Vogue since 1966 in 1988. Crawford signed with Elite modeling agency in 1986 and covered many magazines such as Cosmopolitan and Vogue. She did runway work for Chanel and Dolce & Gabbana. By 1988, she did a shoot for Playboy magazine. Turlington began modeling at the age of 14 in 1984. She's appeared on fashion magazines such as Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, and Elle. She was also featured in advertising campaigns for Marc Jacobs, Donna Karan and Maybelline. At the age of 16 in 1986, she was featured in Duran Duran's Notorious video. Tatjana Patitz is also a supermodel featured in this video. She was also featured in Duran Duran's Skin Trade video in 1987. She began her modeling career at the age of 13 in 1983 and made her first major cover for British Vogue in 1985. In 1988, Patitiz made back-to-back American Vogue covers in July and August, which was a rare achievement for models. She did catwalks for Jean Paul Gaultier, and Vivienne Westwood.

George Michaels is a great artist!

My fav George Michael album, got the cassette and when it stretched from continuous play replaced with the CD (Listen without Prejudice Vol I). This album is deep and reflects on the changes George went thru from his Wham days, personal life and as a solo artist. Miss him immensely, he had such a heavenly voice.

Can't go wrong with George Michael. Amazing vocalist and songwriter. Reluctant sex symbol who, for a period, refused to appear in his own videos. Featured here were the first wave of 90s supermodels who, although they walked hundreds of runways and were on countless magazine covers, will forever be remembered for this video.

The entire album this is from, Listen Without Prejudice Vol. 1, is absolutely brilliant, and is one of my top 10 favorite albums of all time. Every song hits on one level or another. George Michael established himself as a true music artist with this album. Seriously, listen to this album from start to finish in one sitting. It is an experience.

I believe George this song in all of his tours. The neat thing he'll say every time, he'll say to his audience is, DON'T LET ANYONE EVERY TAKE TIS AWAY FROM YOU! And then goes into this song! Pretty neat Ha! Also I noticed right away the you raised your hands up when George said FREEDOM he'd get his arms up just like you did, & the audience always did the same thing! LOL, & ENJOY EVERY BIT OF GEORGE! KEEP THE MUSIC PLAYING!😎🎤🎶💃🕺🎶🎶🎶

@abarton1978 2 года назад

This makes me miss George Michael so much, I can't believe he's gone! The people in the video (I had to look it up to be sure I was right about all of them) were the top models in the day, which was perfect for when MTV actually did music videos : Linda Evangelista, Naomi Campbell, Christy Turlington, Cindy Crawford and Tatjana Patitz. What a song, though. I even like the cover that the singers in "Pitch Perfect" did.

@juliemartin4267 2 года назад

One of my favourite George Michael songs. The song refers to George’s past success with Wham! yet showing he’s a new independent singer. George Michael refused to appear in the video so a group of supermodels were cast instead.

Such an important song and video to me. I was 18 at the time and not in a good place. Remember the first time I saw and heard this video. In a pub, in the afternoon in Hastings, UK, alone and very low. It hypnotised me, grabbed me and to this day 32 years later I am immediately taken back to that exact moment every time I hear or see this track and video. God bless you Michael and to everyone else, fight the daemons, it will get better.

Amber & Jordan, First ☝️ of all, Rip 🪦 George Michael. George Michael started his career with the group called Wham, which they had great 👍 hits like Wake Me Up Before U Go Go, Everything She Wants, Last Christmas 🎄 🎅 🤶 , I'm Your Man, One ☝️ More Try, I Knew You Were Waiting (For Me) with Aretha Franklin, Amazing were most of his great 👍 hits. This cat 🐈 was a bad ass man who left this planet too dam soon. Rip 🪦 George!!! U R miss by ur fans. God Bless U up in Heaven ⛅️ . Rob N Amber check all those songs I put on there. U guys will like his music 🎶 .

I got to hear "Freedom '90" before George came out and after George came out, I got the greatful experience of "Freedom '90" with two different ears, awesome.🤙

@loadedorygun 2 года назад

So many great elements to this song. You noticed it’s actually something of a remake from his Wham! Days, which is important to the context because the lyrics are entirely autobiographical. Not just coming out, but coming out as yourself as an independent artist who doesn’t have to be molded by others. “Gotta get me some happy” on several levels. Finally, this was a groundbreaking video that married music to fashion-these are all international supermodels of the day. Superbly lit and shot, great lip syncing. From the glory days of videos.

@cinb3448 2 года назад

@tnpredsgal493 2 года назад

This was an anthem song for George. If you noticed in this video, he burned the leather jacket and the jukebox you saw in the Faith video. When he left Wham, he was forced to sing songs and take on this persona of sex symbol for women, despite the fact that he was a gay man. He knew he had more to say and more to offer than what he was being forced to do. He fought the music industry to gain artistic control over his own career...and he won. RIP, George. Another good one to listen to is Kissing A Fool - very jazzy with a good piano - way different vibe than a lot of his other songs.

I was 18 when this video came out and it rocked my world, not just the song, but the video. It's so funny to me that you guys are completely unaware that the girls in the video were the world's top 5 supermodels in the world at that time. Everyone else got chorus dancers. George Michael got global supermodels. Remember Cindi Crawford? Naomi Cambpell? Linda Evangelista? Christy Turlington? They were icons of the 80s/90s. Glad you enjoyed it guys.

@lindas2606 2 года назад

I chuckled at Amber’s closing comment about the video bringing in people from “all walks of life.” No, Amber, it was one walk of life - 1980s-1990s Super Models. That’s it, Super Models. LOL George Michael had close ties within the fashion industry and the beautiful women who worked within it. Being gay he, no doubt, was comforting and non-threatening to these icons of fashion, the highest paid women in modelling - and they remained close friends with him until his death. They agreed to lip sync to this song particularly because it was an attack on the recording industry and his fight for artistic freedom within it - which is why he didn’t appear in the video - it was a protest. Happily, George did get to write, record and perform the music he loved which you’ll see in his later work when you get to it. It would be nice if you went through his catalogue of music in somewhat of a chronological order, and you will see the change and growth for yourselves. He was a remarkable artist and is dearly missed.

@billw715 2 года назад

At the time of making the video, the only model of the five in it that had met George Michael was Tatjana Patitz, who had met him several times at events prior. They weren't friends. As far as having close ties to the fashion industry at that time, I doubt it. The only fashion connection Michael had was seeing the cover of Peter Lindbergh's portrait of Naomi Campbell, Linda Evangelista, Tatjana Patitz, Christy Turlington, and Cindy Crawford for the January 1990 cover British Vogue. Michael, not wanting to be in the video, was inspired by this cover and thought of the idea to have them be in it instead of him. From there, he had his management contact their agents.

George is British treasure. He always gave everything at his concerts I saw him in the States in the late Eighties and again in Australia. Try Faith or Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me with Elton John.

@boosuedon 2 года назад

The song is about the stress that George felt about coming out as gay. His label and friends all told him he would lose his fanbase if he did! BUT, as he says in the lyric, "Now I've to get myself happy." He hated that he was being dishonest with his fans.

@Shrykespeare 2 года назад

One of my absolute favorite songs EVER. I compiled a Top 100 of all time in 2009, and this one was #10. The piano is phenomenal, the lyrics and their message is superb, and the video (which featured some of the world's most prominent supermodels of the time) perfectly highlights the exact point that George was trying to make. Even three decades later, it hasn't lost its punch or its poignancy. The reason it was called Freedom '90 is because, in the 80s, when George was in a pop duo called Wham!, they had a hit song also called "Freedom". But this one is all George. Thanks for reacting!
