When Freddie Mercury died and they had a tribute concert to him over in London George Michael took his place and satin with the rest of the band queen and performed the queen song somebody to love you should look at that life performance because George Michael is every bit as good as Freddy it is an amazing performance
I’m sorry no one and I mean no one is a great as Freddie
Yes, George did an amazing job on 'Somebody To Love' with Queen and Elton sang 'Show Must Go On' at the same concert.
Yea, George did an amazing job at the Freddie tribute show and while he was paying tribute to Freddie, his own husband was dying of AIDS. George is more of a GOAT than most people realize. ❤🏳️🌈 Watch his documentary.
They were both AMAZING!!!!
The greatest singers don't sound different live than they do on their records. I don't know why it makes me so happy that y'all enjoyed this so much, but it does.
Fun fact, George was 11 years old when Elton and Bernie Taupin wrote this gem.
I was 11 when this came out. Love early EJ music.
Just for added context, This is Elton’s song recorded back in 1974. You should also listen to his original version. The video you watched was filmed from a George Michael concert in 1991 where he regularly covered Eltons song, Don’t let the sun go down on me, on his tour. On the last concert of his tour, it was a complete surprise to the audience that Elton John came out on stage to sing with him. Even though they had performed this as a duet at Live Aid in 1985, it wasn’t until this performance that brought the song back to the billboards at number 1. I love both versions!
Elton is of course a legend but it was George Michael who lifted this particular song into the stratosphere. No one really plays the Elton solo version any more on radio etc because what’s the point when this extraordinary performance exists. Their voices complement each other so well.
Yes, love the original, but this duet rocks this song out into the stratus fear. Love Michael and Elton. We lost Michael to soon. RIP - MICHEAL.
@@robinmeltzer9024 I’ve never heard this version on the radio.
@@MrWhoevr that’s probably because you haven’t turned the radio on
@@robinmeltzer9024 Probably because I listen to rock stations. I like the original version best. The timing seemed off on this version. Probably because I’m used to the original.
George Michael's faith album was the first one I ever owned. I bought it with my birthday money along with a walkman when I was 12 way back in 1989 😆 🤣
You picked an amazing first album :) i still listen to it lots ❤️❤️
I had to jack my mom's tape lol
George Michael live song of “one more try” is pure Gospel at its finest
I like the song but it not gospel
@@diaquitaquita8984 I know it’s not a gospel song but the live version he did has pure gospel vibes
@@dominiquesilva2070 it doesn't sounds gosel at all
You guys want to check out George Michael's duet with Aretha Franklin, called "I Knew You Were Waiting"... really great tune sung by two legends!
MOST DEFINATELY a must listen!!
Goosebumps!
Every...
single...
time!
I was only 10 when this came out and remember watching it for the first time, one thing I learned recently that took me 30 years to appreciate is how much of a perfectionist George Michael was to ensure this live version was pitch perfect
I love this performance so much- every time I watch it! I miss George Michael, it’s such a loss. The two of them together is magic.
They are sorely missed!!!
Another vote for George's cover of Somebody to Love from Freddie's tribute concert at Wembely stadium. 72,000 fans all singing and clapping in unison. It's truly one of the most spectacular live performances you'll ever see. George has one of the greatest voices in music. Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, I'm Still Standing, Benny and the Jets, Believe, and This Train Don't Stop are my favourite Elton songs. Have fun going down the rabbit hole.
Agreed. I was just thinking about this performance!
I'm not a huge fan of George Michael's music, but there is no denying he does have one of the most powerful voices in music. I've actually seen him live several times, my ex-wife was a huge fan. I have never heard another vocalist sing live SO PURE and perfect...and I've seen many singers live, including Freddie. For me, his best vocals are his ballad "Different Corner" when he sings that "live" the audience is silent. Such a beautiful ballad. The line "turn a different corner and we never would have met" is beautiful. Amazing vocalist and songwriter....and nobody can cover an Elton song (this one) or a Queen song (somebody to love) sing them live and sound so perfect. Please react to George Michael singing Somebody To Love with Queen at the Freddie memorial concert
❤
George Michael also sang some incredible duets with Stevie Wonder, Whitney Houston, Ray Charles, Luciano Pavarotti, Mary J. Blige, Rufus Wainwright, Beyoncé, Tony Bennett, Paul McCartney… so much to check out! His voice always shone through! 💜
Don’t forget Smokey Robinson, Queen, Lisa Stansfield, Muyta Buena, Toby Burke and the incomparable Astrud Gilberto.
Oh shoot, I forgot Aretha Franklin!
Fun Fact: Elton and Gianni Versace were very close friends until Gianni was murdered in front of his residence. Versace also designed Elton's concert stage show for his 'The One' tour. I had to chuckle when you mentioned Elton wearing Versace.
The combination of George Michael and Elton John is just perfect ✌️
George Michael had a phenomenal voice. He sounded even better live than studio recordings and that’s saying something special for any artist.
This particular performance has become iconic and is the absolute best rendition of “Don’T Let the Sun”.
You are correct....Elton is in Versace and George is in Thierry Mugler.... I remember the day they both came in to the clothing store I managed in NYC called Charivari, and we dressed both of them for this performance. They were regular clients at the store, as was every major rock star and actor at the tiime.
You gotta watch George Michael doing Somebody to Love at the Freddie Mercury tribute concert
Me too dirk I've only heard this a few times and it gets better every time I hear it
You're not wrong..this song takes EVERYBODY to church!!💜💜💜 RIP George!! My favorite artist of all time!!💫💫💫💞💞 another BANGER duet is George Michael with the QUEEN herself, Aretha Franklin, " I Knew You Were Waiting For Me". Maaaann....it'll give you the chills! Talk about taking you to church..on everything!🙏🙏🙏RIP ARETHA💞💞💞
George Michael singing SOMEBODY TO LOVE at the Freddie Mercury tribute concert in Wembly stadium is also classic .
I love how much you can see George feeling the music, it really adds to the song more than you could imagine.
When Elton sings this song in concert their is always a big picture of George on the screens. No one quite like George.
George Michael spinning the wheel or freedom 90, one more try from the concert of hope.
You definitely need to check out George Michael and Aretha Franklin and the song" I knew you were waiting" excellent duet ❤️
And don't forget the duet George Michael did with Mary J Blige, it was fire 🔥
👍
Can check out As with Mary J.
Just two, of the best British Music Artists ..Legends
2 of the best ever singers in the history of music I'd say.
George Michael was my favorite singer in high school. I slept on the sidewalk outside a Specs record store to buy my tickets to his concert before they sold out. Those were the days!
Edit: two really awesome songs of his are: Spin the wheel and Too funky.
Great singers and no need for autotune. You should try George Michael "Killer/Papa was a Rolling Stone" live . Amazing performance...
Elton was terrified because this was going to be one of his first performance after getting sober. I am pretty sure that is why he let George take the lead in vocals and of course it was George's concert. Obviously, Elton had nothing to worry about. The crowd went crazy when George introduced him and he did great. Miss George so very much. RIP
There is a lot of great live performances by George Michael, you should check
What an amazing song. I miss George so much :( he was the best! Thanks for the reaction x
I think this performance was Eltons first step back into the public eye after spending time in Rehab. George & Elton were great friends and they shared a special friendship with Freddie Mercury. The song is an Elton original and it also appears on the 'Lost Boys' soundtrack
Freddie Mercury & Montserrat Caballe - Barcelona
One of my favorite Collaborations EVER!!🥰🎶
The smiles on your faces just says it all.
Guys check out songs "candle in the wind" by Elton John, written in 1973 for Marylin Monroe & later in 97 he sung it at Princess Diana's funeral.
Also Check out George Michael "freedom" (1990). It features the most famous supermodels of the time, in the video as well.
BTW checkout George's other duets, with Whitney Houston "if i told you that" (1998)
Big Hit combos are: yes George Michael and Mary J Blige covered a Stevie Wonder Song, "As". George and Aretha Franklin "Knew you were waiting" hit song. Elton, Stevie, Dionne & Gladys Knight, "That's what friends are For" big hit. Aretha Franklin and Annie Lennox "Sisters are doing it for Themselves" another big hit.
You definitely need to react to George Michael's duet with Aretha Franklin called I knew you were waiting. It's legendary
They are incredible singing alone...but put them together...total Magic!!!!
"I Knew You Were Waiting" with Aretha Franklin is another excellent collaboration.
George Michael is amazing. His Faith album is one of my favorites of all time. Faith. One more try and father figure show how amazing his voice really is
The G.O A.T 's duet. Elton was a huge influence on George Michael. We are blessed that we have this duet forever.
Epic!!! You know George did separate duets with Aretha Franklin, and Mary J Blige amongst others.
Legends
God, that man (George Michael) had so much talent and presence. It's really a shame that he died so young. But Elton John is still alive and sharing his talent with the world, and for that, at least, I'm thankful. This duet from two absolute musical powerhouses is truly incredible.
Makes my heart happy to see you loving this!
In case no one told you, this is Elton John's song. George Michael covered it years later and asked Elton to join him on stage. Elton and Bernie wrote it MANY years ago.
The way that crowd roars when Elton John comes out…
Can you react to George Michael - One more try - Live from the concert of Hope 1993
It's nice to hear your wife throw in some of her opinions. She has always looked good in the background but I always wished she would talk more. Great reaction!
Two pitch perfect vocalists! My heroes growing up.
No in ear monitors that every singer needs nowadays to follow keys and hear the band.
These King's of music don't need them.....musically gifted.
I know I'm late to the game here, but not really. I watched your video quite a while ago but I felt maybe you wouldn't see It with so many comments but I just had to in case. There's a big difference even If this was Elton's song but listen to George's part again. You'll hear & see the heart & emotion behind George. I've never heard that kind of emotion & pureness in any artist, & that's because George put his heart & soul into everything he sang! I guess you'll just have to watch & hear more of George. I believe you'll know just what I'm talking about & he will touch your hearts the same way as millions of people. LOL, I'll be watching for more George Michael! Thanks! GEORGE IS MY LITTLE PIECE OF HEAVEN, TILL THE OF TIME!🕯😇🎶⏳💖
George and Elton both Legends!
This is my favourite song with George Michael & Elton John, what a duo??? INCREDIBLE 💖💖
Your smile says it all
Love George. One More Try, Faith video and duet with Aretha Franklin, I knew you were waiting
Elton very famously sat next to Princess Diana at Versace's funeral where he also performed. They were all friends. Which made it so sad because soon after Elton would be performing at Diana's funeral. 🙏🏼 He's been through a lot.
Yes!! It was all too much for me. I was in Miami right down the street when Versace was shot in front of his home. I grew up watching Diana get married and adored her so that killed me also. Sir Elton has stood by the greats - which is exactly what he is.
I'm glad you guys got to see this performance. These two gentlemen are a part of music history.
Great reaction to an amazing collaboration with two of the best of my generation! Absolutely love George , he has been a favorite since his very first Wham album!! Love Elton too, but George makes it for me and you two appreciating it made it that much better! Thanks you, DO MORE GEORGE, you can’t go wrong. 💕🌟💕🌟💕🌟
Your reaction is perfection. These are two musical greats creating magic. Loved it.
You have to really think about how great these two sound and they were live!
I've had the pleasure of seeing these two legends and they were fantastic !
🔥🔥
Elton was just coming back from rehab and had collaborated with GM prior, this was a natural step.
Check out EJ's original version written by EJ and Bernie Taupin, have you watched Rocketman yet? 😉
Bout fell of my seat when you noticed Versace!! 😂🤣
Princess Diana, Giovanni Versace and Elton were a close group. They worked together on Elton's Aids Foundation. Versace designed for him and her. They were devastated when he was murdered in Miami outside his home. Then Princess Diana had passed not long after, very tragic. 😪
Can't wait for what's next!! ❤👍🏽
Love to see big smiles on your faces. This song always gives me chills. Great reaction!!!
I look forward to each and every one of your reactions! You two have beautiful smiles and spirits. I am 59 (in 3 days) and love to see your take on all the music I grew up with. These are TWO ICONS! I believe you were trying to think of David Bowie with Freddie. R.I.P to 3 of the four, unfortunately. Thank God Sir Elton is still with us. (Saw him and Billy Joel together......fire!)
You keep reacting and I'll keep coming back! 👍❤
This is an Elton John song that George Michael remade (with the help of Elton John). It’s maybe 7-8 years after careless whisper.
Thanks guys. Love this song and both guys . George Michael has lots of great songs . Rest in peace
Take a listen to George Michael - "One More Try" (the original video or the live-version "Live in Prince's Trust Concert") and "They Won't Go When I Go" (Stevie Wonder cover)... you'll be amazed by his vocal ability! Very soulful...
George Michael has done duets with the biggest names. Aretha Franklin, Queen (a sort of duet) as many have Mentone, Mary J Blige, Whitmer Houston, Stevie Wonder, Smokey Robinson, hell he even popped up at a Beyoncé concert and did a quick duet on If I Were A Boy... admittedly not his best vocal. Soooo many others.
I'm someone who loves originals. Regardless of whether it's movies or music. I'd list some examples, but then people will say mean things and hate me. So, I'll just stick to Elton John's Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me. It was one of my favorites, until I heard this version. It's absolutely, stunningly brilliant!! I listened to the first half of the song with my mouth half open!! It's by far, the best collaboration I've ever heard, of any song. This reminds me of those commercials decades ago advertising cassette tapes for recording music. Their claim was you couldn't tell whether it was a live or recorded performance. The ad line was, "Is it live or is it Memorex?" LOL
Also worth checking out, Elton John and Axl Rose with Queen doing Bohemian Rhapsody at the Freddy Mercury tribute concert.
Elton John top five biggest selling artist of all time
One More Try by George Michael
I am so excited you got to hear this duet live 💜. Keep doing reviews.
Two of the best artists to ever come out of Great Britain
In a time when 90% of the music is just garbage, there actually was a time not so very ago when artists like George Michael and Elton John made some of the best, most heartfelt music in history. Auto-tune and lip-sync were unheard of and not needed, because real voices and instruments ruled the day...Many of today's artists might be remembered for a decade or two....George's and Elton's music will be listened to as long as there are people still around to hear it...RIP George!
The WORLD just NEEDS gd 🎵!!!
one of the most beautiful songs ever... especially with Elton & George 🎵
I saw Elton John in 1976! Called the Concord Concert! It was as loud as the Concord Airplane! One of the best concert’s ever! George Michael what can I say.. beautiful man and beautiful voice! There is a story about this song by Elton John but depends on what story you want to believe! Thank- you for this great song! They did a fantastic job on this! Elton’s song Tiny Dancer and Levon are some of his early works! Check them out! Elton John has so many hit’s from the 1970s till even today! George Michael has great hits as well , freedom, I want your sex, and other songs!
My first concert ever (I was 15). Saw the show at the Capital Centre in Landover, MD. It was General Admission and total chaos, and I loved every second of it. I've seen Elton in concert over a dozen times since.
I definitely recommend more live performances by George Michael. You should check out the MTV unplugged concert.
The 1 and only George Michael
Two of the finest UK singers amazing 🇬🇧
The difference is Elton john has been making hits since the early 70's. George wasn't even born. George is a star, Elton is a legend.
George Michael has huge song catalog. His live performances are amazing. He can sing any genre
Crazy how good George Michael was live, some would argue he was better live than on a track
Love this reaction. You guys were grinning ear to ear during a lot of performance.
These 2 legends together is just magical!!! You should try Knew You Were Waiting by George Michael and Aretha Franklin!!!! 😉❤✌
Great performance. Spot on about Versace!
Elton John and Gianni Versace were very good friends. He was crushed by his assassination.
Definitely for something different that's also a duet and a match-up of very different styles, check out "Don't Make Me Wait," by Sting and Shaggy.
I was never a huge fan of George Michael's music but boy he could sing.
One of my favorite duets of all time. Great review
Elton John originally released this song on his own in the late 70's and hit the top 10 in the USA with his version. The first hit that Elton had with George was a #1 hit called Wrap Her Up in the early 80's. Later came this live duet which also hit #1.
Im looking forward to this one 😁
This live version is the only one I know! Love it
You gotta love a couple of sweet, sincere smiles. This song just flows and lets you float.
And agreed, this has a bit of gospel influence to it!
George Michael had such an amazing vibrato and depth to his voice and he displays in perfectly here. You mentioned Church vibes. Listen to the song Faith. GM and Elton John two legends two incredible musicians . For George check out Faith, Praying for Time, I want your sex (haha might cause a fire on your channel) Father Figure. Elton John Benny and The Jets, Crocodile Rock, Candle in the wind, Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, Your Song. Ya ll 💯 the 💣. No cap.
An all time classic, two incredible artists George and Elton 🌹
Y’all should definitely watch the movies about Elton John, Freddie Mercury, and the documentary about George Michael’s. All three had/have very rich lives with more heartache than anyone deserves.
If you listen to the original version I think the church vibes are even stronger.
And NO these guys weren't underrated
You should listen to George Michael sing Somebody to Love by Queen. It was a tribute to him after he passed.
