    You laugh but perhaps you don’t realize this was written when he was 17 years old. He composed it, arranged it produced it all himself. He worked with the great Jerry Wexler, one of the greatest producers of all time. Jerry produced this for him at Muscle Shoals studio but when George returned to the UK, he realized it had lost its spark. That’s why George produced it himself. He went through 11 saxophone players before he landed on the perfect-one. George could do it all and that’s why this song has over 1 billion streams. I don’t think it’s his best one, his best ones followed this when he became a solo artist in later years. He was phenomenal. Perhaps you find it silly because you just have not discovered all of his music.

    I love both versions of this song and they both have their own feeling. But was Seether does to this song hits me harder than the original. Seethers version feels more emotional with the more harsh vocals, and the distorted guitar. Easily in the top 20 cover songs of all time, maybe top 10.

    GM is one of the greatest singer songwriters of all time. Selling more than 125 million records in his lifetime. He’s a triple threat with being able to also produced all of his own music. It’s rare that a member of a pop group goes on to be even bigger. The man won countless awards, but most importantly, he was most proud of the songwriting awards he won. His music just got better as he got older and his voice matured beautifully.

    I really re-discovered this great tune because of Seether. Didn't realize how magical it was. I do like the "rocking" style of the Seether version- but the original is a masterpiece! Thanks for the video!

    • @andrewpardue3324
      @andrewpardue3324 7 місяців тому

      I’ve always liked the original song since it was new. I’m a 52 year old Metalhead but I like most music really and I had to play it in band class on tenor 🎷 saxophone when I was about 14 😄 . Had no idea that the Seether version even existed until now I definitely like what they did with it. It’s really just a great song in any style and it’s always interesting when some from a completely different style redoes something everyone already knows well their own way as if they had written it.
      - Check out Type O Negative’s version of Cinnamon Girl ! or their version of Summer Breeze is crazy as well , Peter Steele’s super low voice sounds awesome on those tracks !

      @judsong 7 місяців тому +4

      Its more funny to me, not because its george michael, but because Richard loves such extreme metal…and George Michael. Just having him as a close friend, knowing how kind and loving he is, then learning of the hardcore stuff he listens to is already an anomaly, THEN he dropped “oh yeah, and George Michael” on me, the dichotomy is just so amusing to me. I’m just tickled at the amalgam that is my brother and one of my best and closest friend. But, I certainly can’t deny I dont make fun of him. And my poking fun doesnt stop with george michael! And believe, he gives as good as he gets. But all of it is in love and respect. I promise.

    Be loud and proud to be a George Michael fan, there is no one like him and there never will be 💜 People that shrug their shoulders when George is mentioned only ever think of Wham! and the Faith era (nowt wrong with either of them) but there is soooo much more to George 💜 Go through his album catalogue and then you'll realise what you have been missing 💜

    Lol I love George Michael too. "A Different Corner" and "I Can't Make You Love Me" - live versions are awesome. "Dont let the Sun go Down of me" with Elton John is fantastic. Careless Whisper is a classic and Seether did a cool cover of it - sure it is a bit basic but I love the vocals, and that "please stay" part. :D That bass and sax in the original are awesome.

    I’m not as big of a GM fan but even though I shouldn’t, I love this song. He has others that are good but this is the only one I ever remember. I like a lot of Seether and their version is good. I should like the Seether version better but I still like GM’s. I’m rather narrow in the music I like but every once in awhile I’m surprised by something from left field.

    Random inspiration for some Steely Dan came when Jud started playing the piano at the end. He seems to like “groove” bass lines and such. Steely Dan is amazing for that stuff. Plus killer piano stuff. Hard to suggest but Royal Scam or Aja would be good.

There is this MTV Unplugged version of his album Listen Without Prejudice (what a great album title!) on which he sings a cover of the Stevie Wonder song 'They Won't Go When I Go' - I mean.. how darkspirited do you want to go? That is a heartchilling version..
