    • George Michael, Elton ...
    Today on the channel, we are checking out George Michael and Elton John singing "Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me" live! This is such a special performance and both of them absolutely brought down the house! I love live performances and this one was everything I hoped for and more! Their power and vocal finesse is something to just sit back and be in awe of! I cannot wait to continue down the amazing rabbit hole of both of their music catalogues! Hope you enjoy! #reaction #georgemichael #eltonjohn #dontletthesungodownonme #freedom #carelesswhisper #musicreactions

    I've seen it so many times and I'm thrilled every time. George is (was) so good, he could sing anything. Even in his “Wham” days (see live China 1985) he was simply incredible. When he went solo he got better and better. One of the most moving things I've seen of him is “Jesus to a Child” live (1994 Berlin MTV Awards), it brings tears to your eyes. And there is so much good stuff from him, he was perfect live and had great backup singers and musicians that he worked with for years. George we miss you R.I.P.

    The way George introduces Elton, how it fits in the pause of the lyrics and the emotion of the song and the focus of the crowd, in the history of introductions, this was absolute perfection. This was the top 1 % of all introductions. It actually changes how you hear this song forever. The introduction was an historic event in itself.

    This was Elton's first performance after getting sober. He was ok with letting George do the heavy lifting because he did not know how he would do.. Obviously he had no problem and George was happy to be joined by his friend. This is Elton's song and this duet went to no. 1! Every single time Elton sang this song in concert, there was a picture of George on the big screens. RIP George Michael.

  • @kathiek4239
    @kathiek4239 5 днів тому +12

    The story behind this fantastic performance is that Elton had recently gotten sober and was terrified of performing sober. George invited him to sing with him on stage to kind of “break the ice.” The rest is history. At least that’s the story I heard.
