I remember watching this tribute on tv, it was only a minute in and I just started crying. I think George Michael doesn’t get enough credit when it comes to naming greats. He was truly amazing, as an artist and as a person.
You won't forget him because he sang and wrote from a place where every artist desires to sing from. You felt his heart in his music and it still saddens me he died just like Prince did ... alone. I wish he could have channeled his sadness in the healthiest way which was to channel and create. But also the video of White Light may have been a foreshadowing of his death . Was it his intuition or was it chosen for him? The zebra in the video I'm sure is masonry symbolism of black & white means as above is down below. And him being shot near the heart foreshadows how he may die and it was his swan song. The music industry is darkness and George was the white light....a star.
@@gabrieltalavera4465 you have a great interpretation of the meaningful and great Artist he was. And I'll still keeping in my mind his music until I die
I cried the night the George died. I was half asleep next to my partner when our son phoned her and I heard him say that he had died, she put the phone away and turned over to go to sleep, I didn't, I silently cried myself to sleep. I loved George, went through my 20s, 30s, 40s and 50s listening, and loving his music. Any tribute from a great artist like Adelle is brilliant, well done Adelle. 5 years since we lost one, if not the, best british singer/songwriter in the last 40 years.
Fell in love with this man when I was 15 ,and now as a father of 4 gorgeous girls and 37 years later I still love and worship this total god of a man.. Miss you xx
Thanks to Adele's rendition - the lyric just shone and showed how lonely George must have felt and was during the last years of his life... Without a soulmate... A tragedy... For his beautiful and sensitive soul... Bless you, George. I hope you are happier now up there with Anselmo and your mother and able to feel our love too.
George presented her with an award a few yrs back in London......She thought the world of him.......I just can't imagine how hard that was for her to dedicate this tribute to him......Adele, you were respectable to Michael for starting over and to yourself.....NEVER change.......
Apologies. Never heard this rendition by Adele from the Grammys until now. Haven't heard a song that powerful in a while. Just. Wow. A truly honorable tribute to a dearly missed artist. Well done, Adele. R.i.P. - George
On the anniversary of this post ... Without trying to sound melodramatic nor particularly morbid ... Thought of you on 25/12/2021 George, as did many others who still miss you ...
The piano, the strings, the voice, the slowed down version of one of his most up beats songs.... pure perfection. A definite heartfelt and grueling good bye to one of the most legendary voices of my generation. Good bye, George. May divine light surround you and give you eternal peace. I will see you in the light, some day soon.
You don't realise how poignant this song and its lyrics are until you hear it slowed down like this. Beautiful song from a beautiful man inside and out ♥
Yes, a song about desire , became a song about going into death ...'in the absence of security, I made my way into the night...' Both versions are valid.
Losing George is the saddest event of recent years..so unfair..God bless you George. A beautiful man with the most beautiful soul. His generosity was unbelievable, anonymously donated to so many charities and individuals. God bless him ♥️♥️♥️ will shall never forget him xx
By this song being upbeat George M. disguised his true feeling behind the beat.. when Adele slowed it down she was exposing the true feeling behind this song. George was amazing for this song and Adele gave him the correct tribute.
ua-cam.com/video/xBJRo4K3IvE/v-deo.html I agree I have just covered this version... George was amazing and Adele did a beautiful job.. Very difficult for her xx
Yes she did. I also sang it and uploaded it but I erased it. I will do the real tempo but I had people coming in on me while I was singing it and without permission and they ruined it. This is absolutely beautiful and depicts George completely. What a true musician she is.
Гениальный и замечательный композитор ,музыкант и певец ,талантливый и умный человек Джордж Майкл ,с доброй душой и обаятельный мужчина ,светлая и вечная память великолепному творчеству этого человека !Браво !!
At first when I heard this I didn't like it and I do love Adele. Then I realized she was trying to highlight the lyrics and in the moment she sang it it was the right tempo for how we were all feeling and struggling with his sudden loss. It also reminds us to pay attention to George's lyrics which once again shows us yet again why he won multiple Ivor Novello awards for songwriting. I understand George and Adele were planning to record a song together that would have been so awesome. I am sure George is looking down though very happily with what she did with his beautiful heartfelt song. God we lost so much when George's light was extinguished but my goodness look what he left us. You're legacy is so very secure George just like you wanted. Thanks for everything ❤
George Michael was a genius. Sadly, we only heard a small amount of his music. I hope one day it will be released. I miss George so much. Especially this time of year.
Why George? Why did you leave us so early? It didn't have to be that way - you have left an emptiness that cannot be filled - your songs and talent touched the lives of millions.
This is one of the most beautiful and accurate tributes I’ve ever seen, I’m so glad that we had her, I’m glad for George Michael existence, he was truly a genius, one of a kind, he was amazing.
Тот случай когда неважна личная жизнь певца, главное его творчество, его бешеная харизма притягивает зрителей, как магнитом, его доброта, милосердие никогда не забудется, вечная память замечательному певцу и человеку Джорджу Майклу.
It made me cry watching GRAMMY last night ... George Michael's tribute, ... thanks Adele for honoring our brilliant and talented "LATE GEORGE MICHAEL".
ADELE SOUNDED AMAZING. My mom loves George Michael he was and still is one of the main artist my mother loves. When my mom and saw this live holding her in my arms she began shaking and crying I was also moved to tears. Adele did amazing. Love Adele and George forever.
Merci Adèle pour ce magnifique hommage à un chanteur qui a emporté avec lui notre insouciance et le meilleur de la pop anglaise. Merci George pour ton héritage, mais tu n es plus là .. pourquoi ? La vie est trop injuste
Amazing talent lost. Even Adele can’t do his music as amazing as she is. He will never be replaced, same as Freddie Murcury. Beautiful man inside and out.
I still come here after all these years to enjoy a talent gone way too soon. George Michael’s voice and talent were exceptional and one of our great artists of his generation.
I can’t stop listening to this, I was 14 yo when I was blessed to see George & Andy… at Whitley Bay… the day before Last Christmas was premiered on Radio 1…. I’d never have foreseen we would have similar paths,,,,,,,,, yet I’m still here, and I think of him, and miss him everyday 💗
Che bella dedica al mio cantante preferito grazie Adele. George Micheal rimane il più grande . Perché nessuno gli fa un documentario sulla sua vita professionale. Grande Artista.
Adele carried his sorrow in a way I have never witnessed, these lyrics are soul wrenchingly tragic. I can’t fathom such a loss of love that any relationship never fulfils a companion and having to live with an eternal ache for the one you loved 😣 George hid it so well, god rest his gentle loving soul.
Adele is a very British girl respecting the memory of George in a very British understated way. Absolute perfection performed in love. It would be totally unacceptable to turn his Grammy memorial into some upbeat dance number (as some comments have said) and offensive to his family. George has not even had his funeral yet! Adele chose his most loved song (in his homeland) and her cover was a masterpiece. A moving tribute.
Tom Carew I agree with you she adored him so much so she dressed up as him on her 27th birthday. I am also sure she consulted with his family about her choice of song and how best to honor his memory, but I am most happy she shed light on his pain as depicted by the lyrics because too often we never appreciate the challenges those in the spotlight face in their efforts to entertain us.
I couldn't agree more. I remember waiting for the beat to pick up but then I thought this is a tribute to a very beloved singer. I absolutely LOVE her version. RIP GM and job well done Adele.
Tom Carew speaking for myself I was not in an upbeat mood at that stage he had just died 2 months before that tribute an upbeat song wouldn't have been expressing how we all felt she did that with this song
I can remember the day of the tribute i was waiting for it to come on i was gonna watch with my mom she chickened out who can blame her she hates sad stuff and i preferred to be alone anyway my heart pounded before during and after it was beautiful
До слез... реально трогательное исполнение. Светлая память безмерно талантливому и глубоко несчастному певцу. Покойся с миром, прекрасный Джордж Майкл ...
What a beautiful human he was. When the showed aired live, Adele started singing and then actually asked to start over...... she wanted it to be perfect and it was ❤
This is the pinnacle of music , the music that made you dream, believe gave you a chance made you leave reality and be in the moment. This was George Michael.
I love Adele more every time i see her and i cant think of anyone else that could honour George’s music the way she does here. Amazing. And heartbreakingly beautiful. GeorgeXAdele
I am crying now for the loss of one of the kindest, most beautiful talented people we have been so blessed to have known. RIP Georgie M. Thank you Adele. xx
I cried through the whole thing.What a beautiful man and so amazing and talented . Adele did such a fantastic tribute , I have never seen such a wonderful tribute to a artist that has passed , I really felt her emotion and love for him .
It was absolutely beautiful. She captured a range of emotions in this tribute. The highs and lows. An emotional roller coaster in music. The intense longing, deep passion and grief. It's all there. Well done
I am 47 years old ... grew up with George ... with all the drama he was always there to make me happy .... his voice was so divine ... look at us we are all so different ... I am a middle aged muslim lady but still beautiful music brings us together ...
the best concert ive seen to date George Michael.. played 45 minutes over for everyone in Dublin that June day a total gent, appreciated his fans even after 30 years.. Some of them today with half his talent could take a leaf out of his book.. a total legend.
This is a brilliant, heartfelt tribute to one of the greatest popstars ever. There is a documentary called Freedom on Channel 4 here in the UK (it's released by Sony music - quite a long doc but worth it, bring the tissues) where they ask him how he would like to be remembered and he gets all sheepish and says 'what people won't even remember me in 20 years time.' So sad that someone so so talented could think no one loved him enough or that he wasn't good enough when to his fans he was the greatest. Rest in peace George Michael you deserve it.
I m 62 and George has really been with me all my life. I m still sad at his untimely death and do wonder... I play his songs on the bus almost every day still. He is wrong he will always be remembered not just for his songwriting and as a singer, but as a kind human being who did so much for so many asking nothing in return. It wasnt a waste of time George...
One of the few artists who, despite mastering impressive vocal technique, always sings his heart. Not showing off, just singing your heart. Sometimes it seems like he sings to himself, not to an audience, he's just lost in music. And it deeply cuts our hearts.
Adele has really nailed this tribute to our wonderful GEORGE. I'm sure he loves it because whenever he covered someone else's song he gave him own version of it AND that is exactly what Adele has done. Perfection Adele.
I heard Adele chose this song because it was the first one with which she fell in love with him and at the Grammy was the last time he could say goodbye. I have to say that Adele was amazing. I think I like the fact she chose to play "Fast love" in this very sad way because George Michael has not put down to rest yet. I think it was respectful for his family (dad and two sisters in particular) and close friends. He still need a proper funeral so, I 100% agree with the mournful way this song was changed. A way to release our sorrow. Another tribute/concert after his funeral would probably be done.
This is one of the only songs that can bring me to tears . So amazing the way she slowed the song down and made it so emotional. George was so talented, an icon also such a generous man ❤️❤️
Two of my fav singers and songwriters. Adele choose this song because it was the song she fell in love with George. Absolutely beautiful, touching and heartfelt. I cried and all in my family did
The greatest man of all time! Battled through adversary and kept on producing hits to please the fans even though he was a troubled soul falling apart inside. Miss you George! X
😢 Sympathy greetings from coastal Mississippi. My dear George, your friendship meant a great deal to me. I appreciated your kindness and generosity.I am not saying goodbye, just goodnight. I will see you again when you wake. ❤
@Antonia Rodriguez yes.... GM is the love of my life...His talent, soul and sensitivity has touched me so deeply and stolen my heart. His angelic voice is the most amazing voice I've ever heard.... I know that people don't appreciate this tribute, cause He was so much better than that and deserve more, but Adele left the stage with tears in her eyes. And I believed her when she sang his words "I miss my Baby"...
eMMusical I agree with Antonia. And adele should have chosen a different song than this. It was a too big risk to take. And not a good enough one. This is my opinion.
Esta bellisimo quien mejor que ella para darle ese tributo y con una de mis canciones favoritas...... Me hizo llorar..... Todavía estoy sensible con su muerte se fue tan joven tenía tanto por entregar a sus fans.. Su música.. Sus duetos....... Nadie será mejor que el era un grandioso su voz... Su look... Su elegancia..... Y su trayectoria era un caballero........... Te amo George.. Infinitamente siempre estarás en mi mente y en mi corazón..... Te ame y te amare y seguiré escuchandote.......... Jamas te olvidare ni te olvidarán tu música seguirá aquí.......... I love forever......
Absolutely beautiful imo. I cry every time. I feel every word. Every note. She did him proud. Such a new appreciation for this song. I've sang it, knew the lyrics but never received the message. I think she did an amazing job and he would be proud of her.
Wow....George himself could not have asked for a better sendoff! The first time I heard this song the lyrics with Adele's soulful voice just hit me! it made me cry! While I can always feel a good song when I hear it, I'm not the emotional type to just lose it like that...once again an outstanding tribute by today's most outstanding artist! Love ya babe!
And even greater still a tribute to one of our Pinnacle of outstanding artist,songwriter,performer,singers of our day,and our children's day should they be lucky enough to come across Any of his songs! Rip George
i was 13 in 2016, and had only gotten into george that summer due to careless whisper. i cannot begin to tell you how floored i was when he passed on christmas. i kept it together at christmas with my family but i was so unbelievably sad. he was something so, so, so special. he is forever loved, forever remembered. we miss you, george❤️🩹
I feel like Americans are so used to singers having constant vocal runs to show that they’re good singer. Adele here created a haunting space for reflection and tribute of the death of an absolute legend in the industry. The orchestral arrangement was absolutely incredible. She was a bit pitchy but even she said so herself. It doesn’t take an expert to know full well that this would have sounded almost perfect live, whereas recordings can be very very unforgiving to the slightest “flaw”
Wow, a perfect tribute for a less than perfect yet truly perfect individual, the man himself and the haters are the only ones who ever found him wanting!!! A superb lyricist, musician and philanthropist, a really good good guy, God love you George RIP XX
Thank you Adele, for a respectful and fitting tribute. Many people miss George and his music. Including me. More than anything, I miss the comfort of knowing that a person who featured predominately and sentimentally in my adolescent years, is not sharing this Earth with us anymore. It is very likely that George never knew, just how far his influence reached, nor how many people he touched, with his music.
This performance just shows you the depth of George Michael, IMO the greatest song writer of all time. The original is an uptempo, carefree Jam. Adele’s version shows you his vulnerability and pain. Incredible record and an amazing cover. I wish this was on streaming platforms!
I love the way that when she restarted, she actually said 'All that' bullshit' conversation' rather than 'useless'. If u gonna do it, do it proper. Love this so much. So emotional...... RIP George boy. We love ya!
Great performance. Great tribute. I'm sure George heard it and loved it. He must be so proud. Back then, it gave me the goosebumps as soon as I heard it and I had to stop it and wait a few days to listen to it in its entirety. She did great, even to stop the 1st performance. Respect Adele. You're not only a great singer and interpreter but a great human being. Don't care about appearances. You're deep, like George. George is my favourite singer. His music still gives me great joy, he could express any feeling with his music. I love you both.
I miss ur precious voice im 51 im from lou ky usa what a blessing it. Was i saw u on the faith tour ur a perfectionest im lost but ur a angel god called home ty for being such a voice that could sing anything love u always true fan paula usa
George michael is one of the truly great great great songwrighters of all time!Adele feels this too,hence this beautiful tribute to a true legend!!! Awsome soul!!!✌xx
I remember watching this tribute on tv, it was only a minute in and I just started crying. I think George Michael doesn’t get enough credit when it comes to naming greats. He was truly amazing, as an artist and as a person.
I feel you it's that poignant.Adele is a real gem,God bless her.💖💖💖💯💯
I agree. He was truly amazing. I miss him!
True
Totally agree. George Michael was brilliant and deserves to be remembered as an all time great.
I recently came to know how selflessly he helped the needy anonymously, not many would do it that way. RIP George Michael ❤
Not ashamed to say this version makes me cry... it really hits you slowed down... well done Adele.
currently crying my eyes out to this
Take it your drunk
Was a slow version of this song. really necessary? It says Fast Love not Slow Love.
@@vincentruvo6988get over yourself this was a brilliant tribute SMH 🤦🏼♂️
Not forgetting this man, wrote all his own lyrics aswell as the music.... he was pure magical class!
An absolute genius.
Hilton Tobin thankyou sir, he was. I personally put George way above Elton John.
You won't forget him because he sang and wrote from a place where every artist desires to sing from. You felt his heart in his music and it still saddens me he died just like Prince did ... alone.

Same I fell in love with gorgeous George,his music warms my soul & brings back memories of my lifetime, superstar legend💜
Because of my age I only learned about him from the colab he did with Mary J Blidge. An absolute class. George Micheal forever 💕
Same Here ..
You just said how iv felt since 1987
Thanks to Adele's rendition - the lyric just shone and showed how lonely George must have felt and was during the last years of his life... Without a soulmate... A tragedy... For his beautiful and sensitive soul... Bless you, George. I hope you are happier now up there with Anselmo and your mother and able to feel our love too.
Well said👍🏻
Beautiful - I hope so too ❤️🙏
❤❤❤❤
I hope so too. 🙏
Absolutely beautifully sung Adele. George would be so proud.
a disrespectful rendition of a great artist Micheal he sang it with life and energy faster beat! sorry Adele but you failed big time here?
I doubt it deeply, she is nowhere close to George, completely lost the atmosphere of the original.
George presented her with an award a few yrs back in London......She thought the world of him.......I just can't imagine how hard that was for her to dedicate this tribute to him......Adele, you were respectable to Michael for starting over and to yourself.....NEVER change.......
@@Jackgritty28 i think she meant the surname...
Apologies. Never heard this rendition by Adele from the Grammys until now.
Haven't heard a song that powerful in a while. Just. Wow.
A truly honorable tribute to a dearly missed artist. Well done, Adele.
R.i.P. - George
You must be joking it's the worst I've heard . There's no talent with her trying to sing this song.
I'm glad Adele likes George Michael and pays this beautiful tribute to gratitude.
Tears, still. Watching this after so many months since George passed away. I do not understand grief.
Same still hurts,grief is the most pain a heart will feel
I get covered in goosebumps when I hear this .. love him love his gift of music RIP George xxxxxx
On the anniversary of this post ... Without trying to sound melodramatic nor particularly morbid ... Thought of you on 25/12/2021 George, as did many others who still miss you ...

George Michael is surely proud, Adele literally gave us ANOTHER song from the SAME song ❤
You don't realise how poignant this song and its lyrics are until you hear it slowed down like this. Beautiful song from a beautiful man inside and out ♥
Yes….you are tottaly right
Maybe if you weren’t listening to his version!

I didn’t know that. I love him. He has the most amazing scores
of course... he's in interstellar right?
I didn’t know that but agree he is a genius absolutely mind blowing
Word? That’s awesome. Hans is freaking incredible.
I am crying now for the loss of one of the kindest, most beautiful talented people we have been so blessed to have known. RIP Georgie M. Thank you Adele. xx
I cried through the whole thing.What a beautiful man and so amazing and talented . Adele did such a fantastic tribute , I have never seen such a wonderful tribute to a artist that has passed , I really felt her emotion and love for him .
I didnlso
That meant to say...I did also! Thank you again
Lovely tribute made me cry. Whtsuch a talented person felt so lost he had to end his life. Best songs of 80s and 90s full stop xxx
It was absolutely beautiful. She captured a range of emotions in this tribute. The highs and lows. An emotional roller coaster in music. The intense longing, deep passion and grief. It's all there. Well done
This song gets me every time I hear it. So hauntingly beautiful!
Adele Did A Beautiful Tribute To "Our Angel" George Michael, That I Cry So Much Because I Love Him Very Deeply!!! R.I P. In Heaven!
I am 47 years old ... grew up with George ... with all the drama he was always there to make me happy .... his voice was so divine ... look at us we are all so different ... I am a middle aged muslim lady but still beautiful music brings us together ...
Perfect tribute to Goerge, thank you Adele, that was beautiful
the best concert ive seen to date George Michael.. played 45 minutes over for everyone in Dublin that June day a total gent, appreciated his fans even after 30 years.. Some of them today with half his talent could take a leaf out of his book.. a total legend.
This is a brilliant, heartfelt tribute to one of the greatest popstars ever. There is a documentary called Freedom on Channel 4 here in the UK (it's released by Sony music - quite a long doc but worth it, bring the tissues) where they ask him how he would like to be remembered and he gets all sheepish and says 'what people won't even remember me in 20 years time.' So sad that someone so so talented could think no one loved him enough or that he wasn't good enough when to his fans he was the greatest. Rest in peace George Michael you deserve it.
I hope now he sees the outpouring of love from around the world,he is sooo adored🥰
I m 62 and George has really been with me all my life. I m still sad at his untimely death and do wonder... I play his songs on the bus almost every day still. He is wrong he will always be remembered not just for his songwriting and as a singer, but as a kind human being who did so much for so many asking nothing in return. It wasnt a waste of time George...
One of the few artists who, despite mastering impressive vocal technique, always sings his heart. Not showing off, just singing your heart. Sometimes it seems like he sings to himself, not to an audience, he's just lost in music. And it deeply cuts our hearts.
Adele has really nailed this tribute to our wonderful GEORGE. I'm sure he loves it because whenever he covered someone else's song he gave him own version of it AND that is exactly what Adele has done. Perfection Adele.
A tribute done out of love, the best kind that comes from the heart. He must have smiling from Heaven hearing this along with Princess Diana.
thank you Adele! Only you in this world could do it !
And the tears started to flow 😔
I heard Adele chose this song because it was the first one with which she fell in love with him and at the Grammy was the last time he could say goodbye. I have to say that Adele was amazing.
I think I like the fact she chose to play "Fast love" in this very sad way because George Michael has not put down to rest yet.
I think it was respectful for his family (dad and two sisters in particular) and close friends. He still need a proper funeral so, I 100% agree with the mournful way this song was changed. A way to release our sorrow.
Another tribute/concert after his funeral would probably be done.
This is one of the only songs that can bring me to tears . So amazing the way she slowed the song down and made it so emotional. George was so talented, an icon also such a generous man ❤️❤️
Two of my fav singers and songwriters. Adele choose this song because it was the song she fell in love with George. Absolutely beautiful, touching and heartfelt. I cried and all in my family did
The greatest man of all time! Battled through adversary and kept on producing hits to please the fans even though he was a troubled soul falling apart inside. Miss you George! X
what a wonderful tribute to the legend that is George Michael
Just brilliant Adele, brilliant. We definitely do miss George. He was THE best male vocal and song writer, ever. RIP George.
What a beautiful tribute.Only Adele...
💔💔💔💔💔💔
😢 Sympathy greetings from coastal Mississippi. My dear George, your friendship meant a great deal to me. I appreciated your kindness and generosity.I am not saying goodbye, just goodnight. I will see you again when you wake. ❤
I'm in tears ... I miss my Baby
I was moved by this version..full of emotions
eMMusical Just so you know. "I miss my baby" are George Michael lyrics in most of his songs...not Adele...
@Antonia Rodriguez yes.... GM is the love of my life...His talent, soul
and sensitivity has touched me so deeply and stolen my heart. His
angelic voice is the most amazing voice I've ever heard.... I know that
people don't appreciate this tribute, cause He was so much better than
that and deserve more, but Adele left the stage with tears in her eyes. And I believed her when she sang his words "I miss my Baby"...
eMMusical I agree with Antonia. And adele should have chosen a different song than this. It was a too big risk to take. And not a good enough one. This is my opinion.
eMMusical its reight
eMMusical o SHUT-UP
Oh how much I miss George Michael. The news of him passing away struck me deep in the heart. Such a talent. His legacy will perdure.
Esta bellisimo quien mejor que ella para darle ese tributo y con una de mis canciones favoritas...... Me hizo llorar..... Todavía estoy sensible con su muerte se fue tan joven tenía tanto por entregar a sus fans.. Su música.. Sus duetos....... Nadie será mejor que el era un grandioso su voz... Su look... Su elegancia..... Y su trayectoria era un caballero........... Te amo George.. Infinitamente siempre estarás en mi mente y en mi corazón.....
Te ame y te amare y seguiré escuchandote.......... Jamas te olvidare ni te olvidarán tu música seguirá aquí.......... I love forever......
I really love Adele’s version of this song! Great job!
Absolutely beautiful imo. I cry every time. I feel every word. Every note. She did him proud. Such a new appreciation for this song. I've sang it, knew the lyrics but never received the message. I think she did an amazing job and he would be proud of her.
I can’t stop listening to this track.
I sing it , never met you , but I’ve missed you forever .
Wow....George himself could not have asked for a better sendoff! The first time I heard this song the lyrics with Adele's soulful voice just hit me! it made me cry! While I can always feel a good song when I hear it, I'm not the emotional type to just lose it like that...once again an outstanding tribute by today's most outstanding artist! Love ya babe!
And even greater still a tribute to one of our Pinnacle of outstanding artist,songwriter,performer,singers of our day,and our children's day should they be lucky enough to come across Any of his songs! Rip George
i was 13 in 2016, and had only gotten into george that summer due to careless whisper.
i cannot begin to tell you how floored i was when he passed on christmas. i kept it together at christmas with my family but i was so unbelievably sad.
he was something so, so, so special.
he is forever loved, forever remembered.
we miss you, george❤️🩹
I feel like Americans are so used to singers having constant vocal runs to show that they’re good singer. Adele here created a haunting space for reflection and tribute of the death of an absolute legend in the industry. The orchestral arrangement was absolutely incredible. She was a bit pitchy but even she said so herself. It doesn’t take an expert to know full well that this would have sounded almost perfect live, whereas recordings can be very very unforgiving to the slightest “flaw”
Love love love this slowed down version. I wish George had done a version like this as well as the original
Oh Adele you did it again... this was perfect darling thank you
So beautiful! What a tribute! Adele is fabulous! So emotional! George Michael was a great talent and is missed!❤
i miss george and his amazing music we have so many songs to remember him wish he was still here. God rest
Awesome cover by Adele . Where ever he is now, i hope he is reunited with the great love of his life.
Wow, a perfect tribute for a less than perfect yet truly perfect individual, the man himself and the haters are the only ones who ever found him wanting!!! A superb lyricist, musician and philanthropist, a really good good guy, God love you George RIP XX
Thank you Adele, for a respectful and fitting tribute. Many people miss George and his music. Including me. More than anything, I miss the comfort of knowing that a person who featured predominately and sentimentally in my adolescent years, is not sharing this Earth with us anymore. It is very likely that George never knew, just how far his influence reached, nor how many people he touched, with his music.
Beautiful Tribute. Brought tears to my eyes
This performance just shows you the depth of George Michael, IMO the greatest song writer of all time.
The original is an uptempo, carefree Jam. Adele’s version shows you his vulnerability and pain.
Incredible record and an amazing cover. I wish this was on streaming platforms!
I love the way that when she restarted, she actually said 'All that' bullshit' conversation' rather than 'useless'. If u gonna do it, do it proper. Love this so much. So emotional...... RIP George boy. We love ya!
Beautiful
Great performance. Great tribute. I'm sure George heard it and loved it. He must be so proud. Back then, it gave me the goosebumps as soon as I heard it and I had to stop it and wait a few days to listen to it in its entirety. She did great, even to stop the 1st performance. Respect Adele. You're not only a great singer and interpreter but a great human being. Don't care about appearances. You're deep, like George. George is my favourite singer. His music still gives me great joy, he could express any feeling with his music. I love you both.
Beautiful tribute!!! What a gorgeous man !! Miss you George Michael....
