More quotes by George Michael
I have been taken for a ride a couple of times. I've been hurt by people who I've had a 90 percent possibility of being hurt by.
George Michael
I truly believed that tonight would never happen, that I would never sing these songs to you again. But then I'm a fool, which you've probably worked out by now.
George Michael
Marriage still means a lot more in the country I come from than it does here. I don't think there's anything to be gained by it for the couple. But for children I think it's an important thing.
George Michael
[Music From the Edge of Heaven] wasn't really an album at all. The band had made the decision to release an LP and then split up. We wanted to go out with a bang in Britain and the rest of the world by having a single that was four songs, not just one song. But we couldn't do that over here because we couldn't release a single without an album.
George Michael
[My mother] is much more musical, and by the time I started writing songs - by the time I was about 17 - she started to believe in me, musically.
George Michael
The most common misconception people have had in the past is about my own control and calculation of my career.
George Michael
[My mother] pretty much used to go along with my dad in that she wanted me to get an education so that if this incredible dream I had didn't work out, I would have something to fall back on.
George Michael
People have speculated about my sexuality for years and years. They are obviously interested in my sex life. Fine. Let them speculate. I'm not going to put them right one way or the other.
George Michael
Still, the music was always there, and the lyrical capability was always threatening to show its head.
George Michael
I went to prison, I paid my bill.
George Michael
Without despair, we will share, and the joys of caring will not be erased. What has been, must never end, the joys of caring will not be replace.
George Michael
It does bother me when they [tabloids] drag friends of mine into it and talk about them and lie about them. My friends have no part in it they're not celebrities, so why should they have to accept the downside of celebrity? That worries me for a bit.
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
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.
George Michael
I still believe that music is one of the greatest gifts that God gave to man.
George Michael
All we have to see is that I don't belong to you, and you don't belong to me.
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
The truth is my love life has been a lot more turbulent than I have let on.
George Michael
I'm surprised that I've survived my own dysfunction, really.
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
