More quotes by George Michael
It was a very lucky set of incidents that led to Wham! getting a record contract - although we weren't Wham! when we got the record contract. We were nothing we were just two friends who had written a few songs.
George Michael
Freedom. I won't let you down.
George Michael
I spent years growing up being told what my sexuality was.
George Michael
My dad worked in a very typical first-generation immigrant fashion - 24 hours a day for years.
George Michael
I thought [first girlfriend] was trying to make a fool out of me. Then I found out that she wasn't, and we went out. That's a very good example of how little confidence I had.
George Michael
This stuff [marijuana] keeps me sane and happy. I'd say it's a great drug - but obviously it's not very healthy.
George Michael
I think marriage is a good thing for children, because it gives them a feeling of security.
George Michael
I didn't expect to enter into tabloid trivia or anything like that. So I suspect my perspective and a lot of my ideas changed fairly drastically. It was also rather confusing.
George Michael
I'm not a great collaborator, to tell the truth.
George Michael
By the time I was in my early teens, we were able to move into a much more middle-class area. I had a comfortable adolescence.
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 I've gotten everything I want out of the last years, and I still feel like I have a lot of options open to me.
George Michael
Yet [One More Try ] really seemed to connect with people, which is a wonderful thing and a marvelous coincidence.
George Michael
I find it difficult enough as it is to keep some kind of normality in my life. I enjoy this experience, but I don't know where I'm going to take my career.
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
Basically I see that song as a bunch of images which I threw together to represent the fact that I was seeing one girl and then I started seeing another, and it was just the guilt in between those two periods. The ballads I've written since have been about things that really hurt me.
George Michael
I'm a perfectionist. It's a big pain in the ass and it takes a lot of my time, but it really is going well and I have to do my own things.
George Michael
I left school at 17 and was a star by the time I was 18 - in certain parts of the world anyway.
George Michael
[Tabloids] could call you a child molester, I suppose, but they just go for the two things they think people are most likely to believe and that will most offend yourself and your popularity. My skin hardened to all that stuff years ago.
George Michael
I have never felt any ethnic connection between the Greeks and me other than how hairy I am.
George Michael
