Lyrics
Turn Down The Light
Turn down the bed
Turn down these voices inside my head
Lay down with me
Tell me no lies
Just hold me close
Don't patronise
Don't patronise
'Cause i can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something that it won't
Here in the dark in these final hours
I will lay down my heart
And i feel the power
But you won't, no you won't
'Cause i can't make you love me if you don't
I'll close my eyes, then i won't see
The love you don't feel when you're holding me
Mornin' will come and i'll do what's right
Just give me till then to give up this fight
And i will give up this fight
'Cause i can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something that it won't
Here in the dark in these final hours
I will lay down my heart
And i feel the power
But you won't, no you won't
'Cause i can't make you love me if you don't
There is nothing more heart breaking than falling in love with someone that doesn't feel the same way... May everyone reading this find their true love and may that person fall in love with them over and over again each and every day that life gives them together. god bless
For Jonathan..
The best male voice
♥️♥️♥️
Thank you, Brian. That’s a beautiful message. I’ve finally found my great love at 55 years old. ❤️💜💖 God bless you too. Xoxox
@@turdferguson400 That is fantastic, I wish you the perfect love and happiness with eachother Xxx
Who misses this absolute legend
Yes every year.
me 😭
Absolutely amazing artist
So much.
Me.
There is no doubt that George Michael was one of the best vocalists that ever lived.
For me, the best. Nobody else come close, male or female.
Two ARTISTS that do it for me, one I found on UA-cam over 5yrs ago, her name, the magical voice of MORISSETTE AMON LAMAR from the Philippines and one guy who has always been magical to the music world, the brilliant and sadly missed GEORGE MICHAEL, your music lives on 🇬🇧🔥👌❤️.
George and Luther vandross my absolute favourite
@@amriaye7593 you should take a listen to MORISSETTE AMON LAMAR mate she's absolutely brilliant, she's like so easy on the ears with a personality to die for, for a Filipino her English enunciation in her songs is perfection, the only problem is she is an independent artist who won't submit to the big corporate music industry in fear of not being allowed to be herself which unfortunately is not based on talent anymore but rather image based, she's an old school singer despite only being 27yrs old, she mesmerises an audience with her whole persona, personality, charisma with a voice that no one can even come close to 🇬🇧🔥👌❤️.
@@amriaye7593Perfect, Luther Vandross, such a magical voice. Another all time favourite of mine is Jeff Buckley.
For me personally this is the best male vocal performance ever made. Pure Magic.
I was very lucky to see him live. The purest voice ever ❤
@@lindawalker8312 putz!!!! Que inveja !!!! ❤
Note to future listeners. You have stumbled upon one of the greatest voices that ever lived.
I AGREE EXCELLENT
Indeed, you have stumbled upon exactly that!!!!!
I can sing it just as good🙂
Andrea Bocelli has entered the chat..
@@pozzarefds 😂 love Ur comment 🤣🤣
What a beautiful version of this song... I'm listening in 2023 & this still gives me shivers .. we miss you George Michael ❤
Me too- my heart ❤️
Totally agree only found this version this year, the best.
Same here. I never knew even knew he covered this song before. So beautiful and sad at the same time. You can feel the emotion. I’ve been playing this on a loop for weeks now. 😢Such a talent
Just Beautiful. 🌹
He got so much better when older and then, all of a sudden, left
.what a waste 😢
I don't think people realized just how talented this guy was while he was still with us. Legend.
We knew....after this MTV Unplugged it was crystal clear...
@@bj5121 I knew from the 80s
People who knew him from wham already knew his talent
oh his spirit is
We were all aware.
I worked on the security team on this show. I can tell you that it was the most amazing thing I've ever heard. Such a top bloke and what a voice.
Lucky gay
Wow, you're very fortunate indeed!
Miss him so much...genuine good person..
Luv u already!! Bella🥰😘
very kind to share your memory
If you listening to this in 2024, you're LEGEND!
So are you!😘
I definitely am!xxx
2024. I am still listening to Georgia. Am I legend.
Right back at you !
@@gilbertsoupras5669
Right back at you? What
do you mean. Are you being funny (ha,ha) or rude.? We all love George
for his music and will be listening till end of time
I have always called him Sir George Michael....An absolute musical genius,Ladies & Gentlemen
Saying goodbye to someone who you'd easily spend the rest of your life with is the hardest thing to do, but you can't make someone love you.
Please tell me I’m not the only one who randomly cries thinking of the life and talent of George Michael. 💔💗😢
No you are not honey😰
@Rob Wood 😁😁He died of natural causes🙃🙃
@Rob Wood no,he didn't.Just gather some knowledge or google it first before writing something offensive which is not true.Thanks😊
@Rob Wood well,give me some authentic sources then.When Fadi said that???
@Rob Wood well,u r so delusional that u r repeating the same thing again and again without giving any proof.Thanks,just say whatever u want to say,we all know the truth.....
World is empty without george
The world is better place because of him. We all go, at some point. He blessed us all. Enjoy it ❤
Makes me weep every time! What a voice, what a legend! Miss you Georgie! My first gay hairdresser in San Francisco introduced me to George back in the late 70s. Then the AIDS epidemic hit and the gay population really suffered in SF. We all worked to raise money for some of the first hospices for gay men. It was a tough time. Thank god we are through that. Bless you George for coming out. Your voice is one of a kind. So much love. ❤️ ❤❤
Sounds like your favorite song. Huh?
This was the last time George’s beloved mother saw him perform. He never sang better and no one has ever sang this song better. It’s absolute perfection. I’m a metal and rock guy… and even I think George Michael is the greatest male singer to ever sing a song. Simply brilliant. Much missed.
Same here brother. His voice is absolute perfection.
Yes I agree so much with these sentiments. His voice is like a bell. No matter how how fondly he is remembered I still think he was underrated as a singer. Literally one of the best of all time.
I'm sorry, no matter how much I love this rendition, the Bonnie Raitt original will for me always be the standard other artists will be measured against. This rendition comes close, very close to matching it.
@@roykliffen9674 imagine if the writers had given it to Bette Midler or Linda Rondstadt as they had envisioned… ugh
@@GrimmmReaperz Bette Midler ... meh.
Linda Ronstadt however is a very underrated singer, though I doubt she could give it the same depth bonnie Raitt did
Who is listening to this incredible classic in 2020? 🙋🏾♀️ There are a few great covers of this song but George has one of the best ones. RIP legend! ❤❤❤
That's mad
I like this more than the original.
I first heard this about a year ago and I like this more than the original.
I just came here from watching some covers. Had to pay my respects to this man with a legendary voice.
@A Smith Have you heard Prince's cover? It's the saddest, sexiest thing I've ever heard.
Is it just me or does the world feel wrong without George?
no it's not just you the world feels so wrong without George in it
MsChemicalEngineer think the exact same
Sorely missed
It dose feel very much empty and we have no one out there to pick up from where he has left us sadly.
It is wrong - all wrong without him and it's like a rip in the universe that can never heal.
This song helped me walk away from someone I thought I loved but they didn’t love me. You can’t make them love you if they don’t. ✌️❤️ Thank you Bonnie R.
Someone will love you like supposed to be loved! ❤
❤
Yes - I loved my best friend and I had to walk away - it destroys your soul and never heals.......
The first time I heard this version was an early morning in summer 2017. My ex-husband and I went down to the hotel's breakfast room. We were the first to arrive and exactly as we stepped in, the music started and it was exactly this song. The message I felt was that, after 40 years, it was time to part ways. It's now almost seven years ago that we finally broke up and extra sad because we didn't even argue. We still call each other every week but definitely don't feel like we're going to be a couple again.
This performance proves beyond doubt why George Michael was and remains one of the world’s truly great singers. The way he conveys the profoundly painful emotions in this song is utterly captivating and spell-binding. Simply magical. R.I.P. George. Thank you for your incredible artistry.
😢
😭
Incredible singer. Just perfect, perfect. ❤
Such a sad sad loss a true legend, such emotion from George in this track, he's music will always live on by so many, me being one of them rip George💔🙏
Indeed utterly captivating, still gives me shivers
The longer time passes without him, the more you realise just what a legend he was. If anyone’s voice can break your heart, it’s George’s. Miss you mate.
Very well said.
Star and a legend…. So so missed, style, talent and master of music👌
So true
As I get older, the façade of Wham and George Michael west off, and your realize how wildly talented he was.
I felt very dark when I heard he died 25.12.16
My deepest feelings were sad because of what I saw of him ...
He seemed to be kind on many levels
I am 54 & I don't think I will hear anything like him in my lifetime all through decades what an absolute voice
I couldn't have put it better, one in a million and gone too soon
Hi Maureen, how are you doing?
It still feels like he just died yesterday ...
Hi Maureen. Nothing compares to George but we have someone quite close in New Zealand called Teeks. He does a beautiful cover of this classic which you may like.
Well said
SEND THIS. SEND THIS. To the World. This Is the song the World needs to listen to a thousand times to understand what love means
He has (had) the most beautiful male voice in the world in my opinion. Hands down.
Georgie boy put the Lulla in bye , that voice , that sentiment, that look , that money , , , all forsaken for a gents public toilet , , riches it seems don't redeem, , , , he still makes me remember with love 🥰🥰❤
😪
You are so wright. His voice is outstanding. For me, the best, I have ever heard. I miss him so much.❤
Freddie Mercury and George Michael top the Mens field
Totally agree
Trying to describe George's voice is like trying to describe a colour you haven't seen before!, What a talent and a wonderful human being.
Well said! I miss George but I’m grateful he left us an amazing gift of great music. RIP George Michael
Puffy n cockhorse with a hint of weed ?
Velvet.
He could sing any other artists track and with his stunning voice could make you appreciate it in a different way . In some ways as good or even better than the original......thats the mark of a great singer.
Exactly. There's no words in the dictionary to describe his voice ❤
I think George Michael genuinely didn't know how awesome and deeply loved he was. Such a tragic loss of a beautiful human and philanthropist. He did so much good in the world that goes unsaid. RIP you beautiful man. Thank you for your massive contribution to humanity, through your music and deeds. ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for sharing didn't know that about him. Just loved his voice and his natural energy
Well said! So true.
And he always helped people anonymously - much came out about this after his death.
A truly wonderful and kind human being.
RIP George 😘
Amen 🙏
Such an agonising life lived by this generous, kind, creative & humane person! He didn't understand how deeply loved he was and will be. Gone too soon! Wherever u are, I hope u have found some answers u were looking for! Anselmo & your Mother are with u now 💞💓💖 Merry Christmas George! U always loved Christmas!
Lbeck I totally agree!!!
He did justice to the song, he immortalized the song.
I still miss this man. Christmas is never the same.
This makes me cry....his voice was absolutely perfect.....God, he's missed
Such a loss!
His voice was always so pitch perfect. He’s so missed, beautiful George x
Also crying. Beautiful talented man .😥💕💕💕💕💕
my funeral tune xx loves x
Devastating to think we'll never hear new music from George, He has a perfect, beautiful voice .
This Man has the most beautiful Genuine voice. Cant believe we don't have him anymore. The world is a poorer place for it.
You are so right.💜
Agree...
Beautiful man 💙 beautiful haunting voice 💙 RIP you legend 💙
Totally agree. Such an awful loss of such a talented man
Beautiful, talented man... Gone too soon.
I would love to confirm this version is the best ever . George was unfulfilled and this song proves how good he was 👍
Yes I agree it's absolutely the best ❣
Saw George in Manchester, he was on his own with no other support on stage and he sang for 2 hours some of the most moving songs in his repertoire, he captivated us that night like he still does every time we hear him, a true iconic legend.
Wow!!!
Me and my wife were there too, 2012 I believe, and started as a silhouette behind the curtain ❤🙏
His mum was in the audience for this performance and died 3 weeks later from cancer. God bless you George God bless you darling xxx Declan
I will always love him. Forever.❣❣❣
In my opinion, possibly the best voice ever.
No possibility about it Martin. Without question the best voice ever.
As he aged it got better, richer and smoother ! Singing from his soul.
@@dianne8929 He was the definition of perfection in every way possible. I think he is head of the Heavenly Choir singing for Jesus,
@@debralynn9678 I agree...He is definitely singing with the angels !
Brendon urie??
Hands down the best version of this song 👌🏾
Not only was George a very talented artist, he was a humble and compassionate man, often contributing anonymously to to various charitable causes... despite his personal battles, ( we all have them) he still leaves a fabulous legacy
🙏🌺❤️
Yes he was some kind of wonderful ❤
Charity, he was so kind, he gave and gave to charity, this is lovely, so lovely
I totally agree with you
Lovely, compassionate man.
Gave to charity without bragging.RIP.
I’m listening in 2020. Years after this performance and I’m so sad he is gone. Truly a great voice gone too soon.
A huge talent Gone way 2soon 😕😕x
Hanna D ...... my sentiments exactly. 😔
Me too Hanna. What a voice 😞
He was the best ❤
A beautiful voice....never tire of listening to him
One of the very few artists who, despite mastering a stunning vocal technique, always sings from his heart. No showing off, just singing his heart out. Sometimes it looks like he sings to himself, not for an audience, he is just lost in the music. And this cuts deep into our hearts.
Exactly
Beautifully put. And so true.
Absloute genius, still crying
I've always thought that about GM's singing career ... You must be a singer yourself to understand all this?
@@j.whiteoak6408 actually no, just someone who resonates very much with his music. I just listen and notice the control of his voice, the phrasing, the breathing and most of all the emotion. He is really able to communicate through his voice to everyone, I think this is so wonderful about him.
Still can´t believe he is gone...i saw him live twice...such a talented God
Omg , his voice is simply Amazing...im balling my eyes at because of the words , and because of how beautiful his voice was.
Me too 😢 just beautiful
Me to 😭
NO ONE sings this song better than this beautiful man. He truly made this song his own. He & his amazing talent are sorely missed.
Prince
Will Downing might be a contender
Bonnie Raitt,Teddy Swims
I love it by George but Prince did it much better both of them was great.
Jazz singer Nancy Wilson's version is beautiful.
Listening in 2022 on the sad anniversary of his passing. Those of us 80s children love you George Michael!
Not just 80s children! But most music lovers!
and kid from the 00s
Hi Patricia, how are you doing?
He's we do...best era ever
* yes
He could sing his shopping list and it would be beautiful. So terribly missed 💔
Years after his death he is finally getting the love and adoration he deserves.
Yes❤
George was a stellar singer. Such a crystal clear tone to his remarkable voice. He left the world too soon 😢
There is no one anywhere close to him. Miss him ❤❤❤
I was listening to a cover of this song. And it just made me want to hear this one.
Es q George a diferencia de los cantantes de rock como Freddy bon Jovi Steve Tyler etc no maltrataba su voz, en cambio todos estos pseudo cantantes de rock cantan pésimo por q rasgan y asesinan sus cuerdas vocales
The thing is that George, unlike rock singers like Freddy bon Jovi, Steve Tyler, etc., did not mistreat his voice, on the other hand, all these pseudo rock singers sing poorly because they tear and murder their Vocal cords...they kill them
I thought my world stopped when I heard the news christmas night, We lost such an Amazing voice 😢
One of the greatest love songs ever written, sung by one of the greatest voices ever. Legend.
Totally agree!
@Alexander González We know it’s covered 😊
This is a cover, a great version nonetheless.
Sometimes, rarely an original song can be interpretated so much better, than the original. It is rare, as 99% of covered versions destroy the original.
I don’t think he was necessarily saying that George Michael wrote it. He only said it was one of the best love songs ever written and that Mr Michael sung it well, basically.
An absolute vocal masterclass by a master vocalist.
2024 and I'm here crying because of George 😢

Mark Roberts never forgotten
Just wanted to point out that this is live. All the more impressive.
and no autotune
This is just so beautiful. Kinda cuts right through in the best possible way. This guy was truly deeply sensitive. We’re so lucky to have this body of his work to enjoy here on YT. RIP George. You are greatly missed but still greatly loved and appreciated.
That voice should still be here, be heard and be enjoyed. This song is ever lasting.
It's seems all these great musicians are destined to leave us too soon. 😢
I'm sure Bonnie Raitt is in awe. George absolutely nailed this song.
Bonnie showed him how to sing it,, he missed, tho not bad
This was flawless
@@jaymccuin4665 I've read that she was very impressed with his version and it "struck her deeply".
@@johnwright2911 I bet she did love it, I just think her version is better, by far.
@@jaymccuin4665 it's absolutely isn't.
His voice control in this song is just amazing.
No one like him - ever. Stunning singer. Rips your heart out.❤
He said this was one of his best nights. His breathing was good and everything went perfectly and it was the last time his mother saw him perform.
Perfect voice thank you george michael ❤️🩷🙏
His phrasing is incredible. A masterclass for singers.
And to think his father once told him he wasn’t that great of a singer…😳🤦🏾♀️
We ALL loved you George,we still do.We can't forget you.Miss you TERRIBLY.
George michael will remain the best singer in the world
2021 and we still miss you George Michael. You were a gift to this earth and music.
Yes we do x
I was 9 when Wham debut, I was a Spandau fan, couldn't betray them with Wham. But I love and miss George so much. So talented, he a Watford boy, so almost a Londoner like myself, of immigrant parents. Never expected him to pass so young and he was so young Beautiful, generous, sensitive man...RIP gorgeous George...how could we ever forget you, your music & voice is eternal xxxxxxx

Absolutely and why do the good ones always die so long. Can’t believe it has been 6 long years. Time going fast again
He Left us Great Memories. 🏂
George Michaels version is sublime. ❤💚🖤💛😎🎶🎵💃☘️🦩🦄
This is, by far, THE BEST version of this song. I've listened to others, even from George, and they just do not compare. There was a certain magic to this live session. It simply cannot be beat.
Bonnie did it best but this is definitely second best
Check out TEDDY SWIMS VERSION
He did Bonnie Proud! 😊
@@Sabres1970this is the way
Iam Tongi has a great version as well.
George was one of the very few singers who sang and performed songs by other artists much better than the original.
I agree. And no one could do justice to one of George's songs.
listen to teddy swims cover. please do.
And Tank’s cover as well. Very attractive song to cover, apparently.
I don't agree that his cover is "better"; Bonnie Raitt is a brilliant singer and songwriter, just as he was, and her version is achingly beautiful, just as his is. There's no real need to compare them and declare a winner. They can both be appreciated.
@@susieusmaximus5330 No, George's version isn't better than Bonnie's, but it's very very good regardless. He doesn't "oversing" it.
You can touch the emotion, you can feel the hurt in his voice.
What a talent so miss that great voice.
So true 💔
I miss Mr. Michael RIP. Perfect pitch musician, Bradley Nowell RIP, Whitney Houston RIP, Beth Moore too, how is it humanly possible?
Me too. So sad he´s gone.
❤
It seems like he was searching for happiness his entire life. He found real love and his partner died of cancer. I believe we lost part of George then. On Christmas Eve he pulled back the curtain to see the carollers pass his home. He died that night. He had the most beautiful voice and had an honest sincerity about preforming for his fans! He was a gorgeous man!❤
Bonnie Raitts version makes you emotional, but this one gives you goosebumps his voice hits the perfect tone and timing. Live as well, what a writer and performer this guy was.
I hope youve heard Prince's version. Imo the best one.
lol def the best @@MikeBruski
George had a beautiful voice. He should have sung this in Bflat - same as Bonnie. He really could have done it.
Bonnies version with Hornsby is 1000x better than this.
This is utter trash.
@penknight - you obviously don’t know anything about music if you think this is trash. George’s voice is sublime and this version can’t be beaten.
George Michael , was a totally underrated vocalist. What a shame he died so young and really in his prime.
An amazing vocalist !!
Underrated?!..
🕊 The world was under George's feet..

Something you don't hear anymore, singing live perfectly
Adele 's cover, at Royal Albert Hall
He was so talented. Poor man was haunted by losses in his life. So sad. Such a loss to the music world. Hope he's at peace now.
The losses in his life is why we have his Beautiful music, from the heart......He was great!!!!
@@barbaracampbell3887 True sadly, love how he put his emotion and pain to heal and heal others in the same time! 🌿💜🙏🏽
Right, the losses of his partner and mother put him in darkness for a long time until his death.
He is dead...he is nowhere.
Hi Clare, how are you doing
Drugs, and depression take away the most beautiful people we will ever see.
Still listening to my Favorite singer 2024. RIP George. Always a Fan❤
His passing left a hole in the world.
And a hole in my heart.
@@debralynn9678 Oh God yes, and mine as well x
n' he passed through many a hole when he was in this world - a dirty bugger but he redeemed his filthiness through the songs he sang for us - in the end, he wasn't such a bad boy
Left a whole in my heart.
It sure did. What a talent.

I used to come here almost everyday until I left my ex three months ago. He would watch as I cried listening to this song on my headphones, not knowing the tears were over him. I had to give up the fight.

His voice aged like a very fine wine.. dancing gracefully thru a woman's heart ❤️ this woman misses that tender voice
The best male singer in the last 100 years probably
This guy has such a tone on his voice it's unreal. Rip George. One of the greatest singers ever

And 2023 as well. The man is just AMAZING. Will never forget him and his wonderful talent.
It's been almost eight years and listening to George in 2024 makes me nearly as sad as it did in 2016 when he left us
--so sad he's gone
Isn't it amazing that millions of people all over the world have the exact same thing to say about this incredible human and talent? He is so missed!!! Wish he was here to continue to create but we have his music forever.
I’m 53 and I’ve loved George since I was a kid. I know he died of a broken heart 💔 and I hope that he’s at ✌️ now. RIP George. 😢
Someone wrote about this song here:
"You are not an adult until this song actually means something to you. Until then you are just a child."
So true.
And George´s performance is simply incredible. Much better than studio version.
very true indeed.
Emotions directly project through and it just sink in to you. I can't stop falling in love with this voice
Agreed
He was so lovely and talented... I miss him.
Bit of a daft statement if you ask me.
What a beautiful and crystal clear voice! One of the best singing voices of the past decades. And everything so emotional and pitch perfect! We all miss George, a man with a golden heart and voice, who passed away too early...
Closest today is Zayn Malik if he could just get his s**t together, stop being confused focus on the songs n emotion play the music industry game where required and just fu****g sing out with that voice..then you win as George did
This version is the Best music in the world! Miss you G.M. Rip 💔🥹
... only after he died did they discover he would feed the homeless in kitchens himself anonymously, that he just sent money to people randomly that would write him with their pain and troubles. Only when he was gone did they discover all he gave.
That's what great people do. Doing great things for others anonymously without expecting anything back... George Michael was, and is still, one of the best!
A TRUE EARTH ANGEL 😇
@A Smith, ♥️,
7th Heaven
Yes he didn’t boast. He did it quietly.
I grew up with George in the 80s. At that time, it was just fun music and did not think too much about it. Now that I hear what is out on the radio these days, I realize I was blessed to grow up in that generation. I only wish the new generation can hear and feel the music artist like George Michael produced back then.
Same here, Very lucky to grow up in the 80s with the greats. It makes me realize how great they really are when I look around and listen to the crap that is out there in 2021. It makes me sad, it makes me melancholy and nostalgic. I love George, went to two concerts an even met him once. What a thrill!!! These artist worked at their craft tirelessly. Today they use a keyboard and producer record the live streams. There is no talent needed today, sad!!
You wrote that absolutely right mate!! I feel the same way. His voice could melt northpole and hearts!!
So true! We had the best music in the 70s and 80s. Best cars, best clothes. Best everything!

Songwriter, producer. Singer. He put his life and soul into his music. And he wanted it perfect. For us. His audience. This song (his cover take) exemplifies it. It’s beautiful. And he touches your soul with his voice. Massive love to him ❤
what a lovely comment
Greatest version of this song ever. End of discussion.

Love this version (who wouldn't) but have to say I love Bonnie Raitts version. Maybe it matters who you hear first?
@@debbiewagner1996 Agreed Debbie, but my slant on this particular version is that's it's live, the emotion of Georges voice is palpable and the musicianship is second none. 🙂.

I was gutted like so many other people. He died peacefully in his sleep, with no pain. The pain left us completely broken
This is the greatest voice ever!
It‘s effable beauty is truly God- given.
Me. Everyday. Went to his London home on his first 2 anniversary to pay respect and leave flowers for the person who was a sound track to my life. Love him from the very start of his career back in wham. Amazing artist. And so many of his songs are replica of my life ❤️❤️❤️🥰😘🥰
He caressed every note. Really beautiful.
Indeed...
He is so Special in his whole being!

So true best rendition of this song
Absolutely

Singing is not just hitting notes, it's about how you're evoking soul
May George Michael Rest in Peace. What a legend. What an artist. Sang from his heart straight to ours💕💕
😢
An angel sent to earth he was! 🙏
I once met Micheal in Surry, I was parked up in a layby on a break with my HGV I was stood at the back of the trailer was someone behind me said have you got a light mate, I turned around and my jaw hit the floor ' he could see I was speechless and smiled and said well ' we were talking what seemed like ages he shook my hand and said thanks then stood staring at me and said well have you got a pen I said yes in my cab do you want one he laughed and said for my bloody autograph I said its ok meeting you is more than enough for me, he gave me a hug and said your stupid mate they will be worth a something one day' I said meeting you here is priceless. I parked up in the same layby many a time after that but never saw him again. the world has lost a very loving genuine bloke.
Wow you are so right, to meet George would be enough. Gosh to think he offered you his autograph, I think I would have cherished that forever xxx thank you so much for sharing the compassionate side of this beautiful man
What a great story! Thanks for sharing it..❤️
always and for ever from the moment he went solo, album ladies and gentleman as a present for husband of a friend
You do realise he was looking for a bj right?
@@sarahkelleher4418 Certainly glad you weighed in with your childish and stupid comment...
this is definitely the saddest and yet the most beautiful song i've ever heard
Listen to Serenade for Winds by Mozart. Youre welcome :)
Lord, I'm missing my boy. Love GM
I have goosebumps listening to this. Very talented he was.
I wish he was alive today
You know whats sad? It seems as if your talents shine the most when your heart (soul) is falling apart. 😢 He had the voice of an angel
"...Here in the dark...these final hours...I will lay down my heart..." 💔
You will be so missed, oh George.
I now the darknes . This son keap me I live .it's OK l now . I live.
Turn down the lights
Turn down the bed
Turn down these voices inside my head
Lay down with me
Tell me no lies
Just hold me close, don't patronize
Don't patronize me
'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
Here in the dark, in these final hours
I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power
But you won't, no you won't
'Cause I can't make you love me, if you don't
I'll close my eyes, then I won't see
The love you don't feel when you're holding me
Morning will come and I'll do what's right
Just give me till then to give up this fight
And I will give up this fight
'Cause I can't make you love me if you don't
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
Here in the dark, in these final hours
I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power
But you won't, no you won't
'Cause I can't make you love me, if you don't
Thanks 😊
