George Michael

[Twinkle6]

The docu was brilliant, such good vibes in the cinema. Overheard a few folk saying they wished they played music at the credits a little longer, I think everyone just wanted to dance it out after

George Michael : Outed
on Channel 4 tomorrow night.
Apparently was shown last year.

Jealous much

Christ forbid I impart some actual gossip on George Michael. I am actually a big fan of George.

I think I'm going to have to watch it again as I put it on on Xmas Eve, although admittedly, I wasn't paying attention as I was wrapping last minute, so never saw the bits where people thought she was being snide.

Pepsi and the other ladies looked genuinely happy to see the actress that had played the love interest in the video - Shirlie (only my opinion) kept a fixed in place. She didn't jump up to greet her, it did appear that they didn't know she was coming, or was there.

George on a Sunday night is a great tonic

 

[Fadetogrey]

Well, I'm a Norf West Londoner with an East End partner so my accent isn't exactly RP (although I spoke a bit posh as a child). She sounded like a Chav, sweary and mean faced with it, a bit like Bianca off East Enders. When I've seen her lately on TV I've thought hmmm, what a faker.
I saw George in Heaven too with Pepsi not long after the previous encounter, he'd clocked me but probably mostly in hindsight was looking at my larger than life leather clone friend. I wish I'd gone over and said hello but I was a bit shy & aloof.

I totally went off Andrew ridgeway "the reclusive respectful one" that hogged the limelight once George died.

 

[Carefree]

I'm sure he'd disagree with me but he had such a good heart

 

[IndominusRex]

I miss Victoria Wood.

Has anyone been to the Fastlove - George Michael tribute show ? My daughter got tickets and we're going on 1st October in Southampton.
I usually go to see Rob Lamberti so hoping this show is good.

We have a friend that has been. I'll look to see if coming to Wales.
Enjoy your evening with your daughter

 

[Tank Girl]

That's another reason to watch. A bit of George might help my anxiety chill the fuck out. Shaking isn't it.

Oh for sure. I kept thinking of George last night. A true talent and star

Awww @Sammiejayne444 That one gives me goosebumps even after all these years and “Where Did Your Heart Go”
George has literally been the soundtrack to my life since I was 11, and still is. There’s a Song that will reach deep into your soul no matter what your going through Good Times or Bad Yog has always been there
---

100% agree. There are songs I play when I need to cry and songs I play when I'm happy and want to dance.


Love this version of I'm your man, my daughter's fave Wham/GM tune but more so for me as we were there the night this tour was recorded for the DVD and were down in the 3rd row from the front. Cried when he came out then sung and danced the rest of night

I have a top 10 favourite songs (it's actually 12, I couldn't get it down to 10 ).
Careless Whisper, Last Christmas and Outside are all on there

My favourite of his will always be Father Figure followed by I Knew You Were Waiting for Me. My favourite Wham songs are Everything She Wants and Freedom.

This from Mutya (Sugababes):

Loved the programmes tonight on Wham amd GM.
I'm sure Shirlie is a lovely person, but she annoyed me tonight by talking over Pepsi a lot.
She got lucky due to her friendship with GM as she was a crap dancer

I thought it was me last night thinking that Shirlie was a bit "me me me". When Pepsi said about learning the dance moves when she took over from Dee C, Shirlie was "they wasn't difficult".. Just seemed a bit off.

 

[Sammiejayne444]

Gary Glitter was the first act on that day.

So my memory was right. I genuinely thought it was a weird cheese dream or something.

 

[Renegadedancer]

They are all that’s left and they are clinging on to that gravy train for dear life. Pepsi seems very sweet though.

 

[Twinkle6]

Will make a lovely gift to someone or yourself!

a lot of people are very disappointed with the finished product - doesn’t seem to look like him! I was all ready to buy but I’m passing now

 

[LadyMuck]

I can take or leave him, I didn't think he gave much to the documentry. Enjoyed seeing Mary J Blige and hearing her sing Last Christmas too.

Mary is a bit dodgy re her Diddy association, allegedly

 

[Twinkle6]

Oh what have I missed?
