More quotes by George Michael
We [with Andrew Ridgeley] didn't expect people to take it seriously. But naturally they did, and they thought we were a couple of wankers.
George Michael
You'd be surprised how young 25-year-old girls can sound when they want to scream. It isn't that young an audience, and it really frustrates me when I read the word prepubescent in my reviews. Even the ones that started following me with Wham! are in their late teens by now.
George Michael
No fantasies, I don't think. Most of my fantasies have already been realized.
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
Yog is an abbreviation - my real name is Yorgos, which is Greek for George.
George Michael
I've never done anything so political before. I've spent years shouting my mouth off about serious issues over dinner tables but never really had the confidence to express my views in a song.
George Michael
I want to make a pop album - something more upbeat than my stuff was in the '90s.
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
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.
George Michael
I define my sexuality in terms of the people that I love.
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 parents both came from very poor working-class families.
George Michael
Be good to yourself 'cause nobody else has the power to make you happy.
George Michael
I have no doubt that the music I release next will be better.
George Michael
I still believe that music is one of the greatest gifts that God gave to man.
George Michael
I think my idea of a perfect romance is when two people really belong to each other.
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
As I became George professionally and everyone called me George, Yog became the name that people who knew me from before started to use. It became more valuable to me.
George Michael
I spent years growing up being told what my sexuality was.
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
