50 percent of the people I perform for have come to scream at me and the other 50 percent have come to listen to the music.

I have definitely reached the same level as Madonna in terms of sales. I'm really pleased about that.
George Michael
Image
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.

Only time will set you free, just like me

In the rest of the world we had had two albums that were successful, so those two albums' hits and this new four-single package made up an album called Wham! The Final, which is basically greatest hits. We couldn't have done a greatest hits over here, because we'd only done one hit album.

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.

Yeah, I'm going to need a leather jacket for when I'm on my hog and need to go into a controlled slide.

Image
I mean, it is the perfect situation to really love someone to death and to want to rip their clothes off at the same time, isn't it?
George Michael
Image
[Wham!] totally changed my life. It would be very difficult to know how it changed me as a person you'd have to ask other people that.

I have two sisters. My father is Greek and comes from a family of seven. My mother is English and comes from a family of five.

I find it too terrifying to go out in L.A.
George Michael
Image
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.

I was supposed to be a real Thatcherite. Just by dint of being a first-generation immigrant and having not had money, and then suddenly having it - and getting on planes and going to Ibiza and sitting around in thongs. But actually nothing I was writing or doing was even vaguely Thatcherite.

No fantasies, I don't think. Most of my fantasies have already been realized.

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.

My American gay audience have continued to dance and sing to the music I make in a way that straight Americans haven't. I am grateful to them for that.

The thing that's weird is that we thought it was funny. We expected people to get the joke - that we [with Andrew Ridgeley] were two guys really making asses of ourselves.

Be good to yourself 'cause nobody else has the power to make you happy.

Your political system is actually too democratic. The fact that Americans vote on every bill and proposition can prolong bigotry indefinitely, especially where it is aimed at minority groups.

I think I'm getting there, but it's very hard to perform at my absolute peak when an awful lot of people come just to make their presence known, when the lights go down and all you can hear is people screaming.
