He wrote the whole song when he was 17years old. Incredible talent. Sadly lost to us.

George wrote the song when he was 17 years old. During a cinema programm, George thinks about his girlfriends and how easy it is to hurt them with a thoughtless comment. This is how he comes up with the lyrics to "CARELeSS WHISPER" On his way home in the bus, he has the idea for the mind-blowing sax melody. He doesn't know that he is writing a world hit. He records the song with Andrew and they play it at a party. Everyone is thrilled and the cassette with "careless whisper, Club Tropicana and Bad Boys" ends up at a record company 1981.The first record company said, "NO THANKS".

Not correct, andrew and george each wrote parts that fitted together. The first songs to the record company were: wham rap, club tropicana and careless whisper. Read andrews book

GREAT reaction! You guys are adorable. ❤ Please please do "One More Try" and "Faith" from George Michael next. 🙏Those were two other big #1 hits from him and will give you a sense his range. "One More Try" is heart-wrenching and his best vocal performance and "Faith" is super catchy and fun.

Oh you need to know that George arranged, produced and played instruments on all of his songs. He was a master at a young age. Listen to the WHAM song "Everything She Wants" and you will see just how amazing he was at a very early age. He wrote Careless Whisper on a bus when he was 17. Hard to believe but true. He has so, so many great songs and I hate that everyone stops at Careless Whisper or Wake Me Up Before You Go Go. I just came across George's song "You Know That I Want To". Talk about a sexy, jazzy chill vibe, man it is good! George, we miss you but hope you are in heaven with Anselmo, your mum Lesley, and little sis Melanie and that you are at peace.

This guy hadn't a voice from earth but from above!

His real name was Georgios Kyriakos Panayiotou, he was a Greek 🇬🇷 born in England. RIP Legend!

I really hope you two are ready to take the dive into the musical stylings of Mr. GM? He was and still is a LEGEND in every sense of the word. Great song to star off with! “Everything She Wants” by Wham would be another you should consider. Good energy on this channel! 😎💪🏼

Nice reaction. Anthony, "immaculate" would be a great word to describe this song. This song has a very well-structured arrangement, is dramatic, and delivers a message. This song ranks as a favorite on many people's playlists.

y'all should react to some of his LIVE performances. He was one of the greatest male vocalists PERIOD!!! This video was filmed in Coconut Groves, FL (Miami, FL). I live 30-mins from there and I'm actually going to to visit one of besties there, for the weekend.

@@TheCottons Passed away on December 25, 2016, Goring-on-Thames, England / One of the best male vocalist ever.

George Michael: IMHO The best. A Different Corner(my personal fave song, ever, by any artist) Jesus To A Child (written about his partner that died from AIDS related complications, his entire album, Older, is dedicated to him) One More Try Fast Love (If possible watch video, it's amazing) Freedom 90 (Video is STUNNING! TOP models of 90's featured. It's an autobiographical song, watch his video for Faith first and at least one Wham! video to put the lyrics into better context) Monkey Praying For Time Spinning The Wheel, great jazzy number Somebody To Love (from the Freddie Mercury tribute concert. He KILLED it. ) Outside (Personally love this one just for the sheer balls shown by making a song about his own arrest) White Light (Which to be honest, since his death, breaks my heart every single time, as does Last Christmas) Waiting For That Day Older Heal The Pain I Knew You Were Waiting (For Me) his duet with Aretha Franklin. (He was a powerful duet partner. He knew how to let the others shine, from Whitney Houston, Mary J Blige, Stevie Wonder, Paul McCartney, the list is impressive.) ...ummm, basically his entire catalogue. LoL Wham!: Club Tropicana Young Guns (Go For It) Everything She Wants Wham Rap! (Enjoy What You Do) Where Did Your Heart Go The Edge Of Heaven Battlestations I'm Your Man (Extended Stimulation Remix, I love the cheeky bit they added in the car part)

George Michael… legend❤️

Yes it's the '80s love my wife's favorite song then we got married

Nice to see Maya Rudolph doing reactions now! 😊

Live-George Michael, Elton John; Don’t Let the Sun Go Down on Me. Also One More Try by GM.

Lesson: Dance with the one that brung ya.

Cottons you two are great. Keep going

I’m never gonna dance again…guilty feet have got no rhythm…to me is a metaphor for the dance of loving someone…when you lose someone so special and you know deep in your heart you will never love like that again for the rest of your life

I found your channel today, and have been playing your videos. I sawt this one. I recommend you check out George Michael and Aretha Franklin singing I knew you were waiting. Such a beautiful song. Oh put up some Bee Gees and some Def Leppard also. I enjoy yalls energy!!

React to Gino Vanelli "I just wanna Stop"

What’s under the hat 😂😂😂

you live

Sigma 😅😮

Pretty sure it's about his first boyfriend, who died from HIV/AIDS.

80s yuppy style

Please remember George Michael was gay and the women in his video was a prop and that all. Still a good singer and song writer for a Greek lad born in Watford England whose real name was Georgios Kyriacos Panayiotou.
