Both did an immense performance on this song, it's been on my playlist forever
Annie Lennox also did a duet with Aretha about the same time - "Sisters Are Doin’ It For Themselves"
It was nice to hear this song again after a good while. Rest in peace both of them, they sounded great together.
they don't make uplifting songs like this anymore. keep digging in the archives, lizzie, your heart will be lifted up! don't let life get you down. there is positivity out there.

I swear every single song of George Michaels is just so good. Just when I think I love one song the most I hear the next one and I love that one the most
What an incredible voice from Aretha, amazing! Can't forget my lovely George, they both have iconic voices, love them so much!
No matter what kind of music it was, the 80s were GOLD!!!!!
So much talent.... Miss them both... Gone too soon for sure!
I read he was surprised that she was a fan of his and her sister wanted to meet George that also helped
I was impressed that you knew Marvin and Tammi.

What a great duet, Queen of Soul Aretha and George Michael! ❤
My favorite lady Queen of soul. ❤ George was such an awesome singer. Love them together.....RIP both of you. Singing in heaven!
"I knew you were waiting for me," is what Aretha said to George when she went to heaven and saw him. This song is magic. It's untouchable.
This song won the grammy for best duet, can't remember 86 or 87. If you want to see a great duet check out George with Mary J. Blige "As". It's my fav. George did duets with Smokey, Whitney, Stevie, Queen, Paverratti, Beyonce, Ray Charles, Garth Brooks, Elton, etc. etc. etc. Can't remember how many. Pop singers back in the day were good, but always looking for the great producer or song writer. George did it all with his songs, wrote, sang, produced and did many of the instruments on his songs. I'm 71, I'm still a big fan of his. There will never be another George MIchael. I also love Aretha. I remember an interview I saw where Aretha said she introduced George to "soul food", fried chicken, yams and corn bread were his favs. He would eat at her house when he was on tour for his "Faith" album.
Rest well to the 2 Legends that made my Childhood Immortal, Forever Missed & Tina Turner too 😔😪😢🌹💐👏⭐️🌟💫🎗🕊

Try, WRAP HER UP w/ Eton as well. It's a lot of fun. Note: that in the beginning all the way up to see George, George is the backup, he sure could hit those high notes.
Aug 29th1988 was one of the most memorable nights of my life. My husband took me to Detroit to see this concert for my 27th b'day. It was amazing!
We had it so good in the 80's. It hurts to say they're both gone. Unfair, really.
Found you channel by chance, George Micheal was my childhood idol, fell in love with his voice when I was 10yrs old when Wham, in Bad Boys/Wham Rap, had the pleasure of seeing George Michael in concert in 2006 & 2008 both Wembley Stadium. Listen to, Different Corner, Jesus to a Child, she has been loved, careless whisper, Freedom, fast love, these are just a few of his top 10 hits in UK
This song is so slow but contains so much power and positive energy
Great choice, they both complement each other
Aretha makes everybody look good although the boy can sing I like everything the queen does great song great reaction✌💪🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾 love the shirt should have got a matching one for little man haha you look lovely😘

Heck Yha I'd love for you to do more George Michael. Fact: Believe it or not, Aretha at first didn't want to do this song with George but she did, And this turned out to be her first hit in 20 years. It sure looked like she liked doing this song to me. I have to say, They defiantly made good music together. George did a lot of collaborations with iconic artists, you need to check them out. But 1st and foremost, George was in a league all by himself, perfection! As you get to know & experience Georges music, you'll be amazed at what your seeing & hearing. I would love to see you listen to STAR PEOPLE, He put the FUNK IN FUNKY. Thanks, I enjoyed your reaction.

Actually it was George Michael who was too nervous to do this collab with Aretha. When Aretha's people approached him about this,, he was nervous about singing with the legendary Aretha Franklin whom he admired as a child - of course and he was also used to producing his own music, he was apprehensive about being produced as well - being such a perfectionist. But Aretha's people and GM's manager was persistent. He flew to Detroit to record this with Aretha and the rest is perfection history. :)
