I do think that Live Aid (1985) (TV) was a great thing, it focused people, I think it showed young kids the way in many respects and I think a lot of people are still inspired by what happened in the mid-Eighties.

More quotes by George Michael
I want to make a pop album - something more upbeat than my stuff was in the '90s.
George Michael
It's an incredibly limited sphere those tabloids have, isn't it? Basically, they can accuse people of being gay and they can accuse people of taking drugs, but they can't get any more sensational without entering into the realm of incredibly bad taste.
George Michael
I don't really think that there is anyone in the modern pop business who I feel I want to spar with.
George Michael
I'm surprised that I've survived my own dysfunction, really.
George Michael
The truth is my love life has been a lot more turbulent than I have let on.
George Michael
Stars are almost always people that want to make up for their own weaknesses by being loved by the public and I'm no exception to that.
George Michael
All we have to see is that I don't belong to you, and you don't belong to me.
George Michael
I don't really feel I deserve something if I haven't had to fight for it. It's not a conscious attitude, and it's stupid and wrong. Sometimes you do deserve things without having to put yourself through agony.
George Michael
I had my very first relationship at 27 because I really had not actually come to terms with my sexuality until I was 24.
George Michael
Still, the music was always there, and the lyrical capability was always threatening to show its head.
George Michael
I think part of it has got to be compensation, yes, for the fact that when I was a kid, I wasn't particularly attractive. But at the same time I don't remember ever thinking, Oh, my God, I'm such a mess I'm the ugliest sod in the class.
George Michael
I'd never touch anything. I think it's foolhardy to play around with the face that you've been given. To have a little snip or a tuck, I think, is really quite obscene.
George Michael
You'll never find peace of mind until you listen to your heart.
George Michael
Be good to yourself 'cause nobody else has the power to make you happy.
George Michael
I'm basically a control freak. It's not because I want to be. I'm not at all into the power play that's involved in it.
George Michael
[My father] was more than apprehensive. He didn't think I stood a chance in hell. He had no confidence in me whatsoever and was convinced that I was going to be coming to him for money when I was 40. We argued about it constantly.
George Michael
Everything was meant to wind people up [in Make It Big ]. I don't know why we had this great pleasure in winding people up, but we really did think they would get the joke. And it backfired on us.
George Michael
I think my idea of a perfect romance is when two people really belong to each other.
George Michael
I got to say hello to Snoop Dogg. I got to, I was being barged out of the way by his bodyguards but I got to say hello to him which was cool.
George Michael
When I open my mouth and sing, the truth comes out. When I write, the truth comes out. I can't lie. That, I think, is one of the strongest elements of my music. When people talk about my writing as though I'm doing it from an accountant's perspective, it really pisses me off.
