oldypigeonpopper Posted December 23, 2023 Report Share Posted December 23, 2023 hello, there will be people going to Goring on the 25th , it has been 7 years since the passing of George Michael, such a shame, who would have thought a young George write lyrics for a song that is so well loved Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon R Posted December 23, 2023 Report Share Posted December 23, 2023 Never a Wham fan, but Different Corner is brilliant. George wrote, played every instrument and produced the track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nobbyathome Posted December 23, 2023 Report Share Posted December 23, 2023 There has been so much about whamageddon ( see how long you can avoid listening to it) a few radio stations have not been playing it to join in but what people do not understand is every time it is played the George Michael foundation get paid and it goes to his charity’s it’s just a shame he gave so much to so many Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vince Green Posted December 23, 2023 Report Share Posted December 23, 2023 (edited) It's credited as Wham but actually its written and produced by George Michael and he played every instrument. He was an immense and generally under rated talent. His stage presence was second only to Freddie Mercury but in a very different style. Watch him do different corner at Palais Garnier in Paris on YouTube. Absolute perfection Edited December 23, 2023 by Vince Green Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never really a Wham fan as such, but a big fan of George Michael, his song writing and an incredible voice. I have quite a bit of his music downloaded. A fabulous talent sadly missed.

JKD Posted December 24, 2023 Report Share Posted December 24, 2023 I like him as a solo artist,,,, some tracks/albums more than others. He certainly was a huge talent ! When he officially "came out", a chum of mine binned all his CDs, spouting all sorts of homophobic garbage,,,, as if GM's sexual preferences changes how his music sounds 🙄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
