Here is my version of George Michael's arrangement of this song - so, a tribute to both George and Stevie!
This video is a big one... (both in duration and meaning)! My Dad spent a long time trying to convince me to do a version of this song and I finally plucked up the courage and gave it a go in the final recital of my music degree and all I can say is it just felt special...
Almost exactly a year later after graduating, I was granted the crazy opportunity to go back and record my own orchestral version with the Royal Northern College of Music Session Orchestra. The feeling of singing this song with that sound behind was honestly indescribable... What is more crazy is that the song was rehearsed and record in 10 MINUTES?! The talent on the stage in this video is staggering and it was such honour to have collaborated with them and to now be able to share this video with you.
THANK YOU SO MUCH to everyone involved in performing & recording this:
Band - Royal Northern College of Music Session Orchestra (Musical Director, Andy Stott)
