One of my MOST FAV songs of ALL TIME... sad, beautiful, haunting... I love George Micheal and his music and the sax, guitars in this were just Gorgeous... WOW. Takes me back to a Handsome State Trooper when I was younger, and Many Nights spent locked in his embrace on those Hot Summer Nights... damn I need to stop here... reminiscing... ah they days of youth.
Now a quarter century on, I am reminded how incredible the music of the 80's was . . . so beautiful, professional and complex, and Careless Whisper stands with very few others at the top.
He was favourite of my younger brother and I still remember he singing this song when he as a kid. Now he is no more but this songs reminds of him all the time. I like this song and it is in my heart forever.
In the 1980s Steve Gregory decided to go freelance. He took on television work and continued with session work. He played the saxophone line on George Michael’s hit "Careless Whisper"
Back in the day when making real music with real instruments was still a cool thing... When singers had real talent and had to make a real effort to be singers, without any auto-tune crap.
the saxo part is just simply amazing... :) I just lost the words to describe it... :) song is beautiful :) anyone knows the name of saxo player? :) or maybe someone can give some links for 80's muzic with more saxo parts :) I just listend midnight lady by chris norman. its amazing too :)
