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.

It's the ones who resist that we most want to kiss, wouldn't you say?
George Michael
Image
We [with Andrew Ridgeley] were getting so much attention and achieving such success. It never really bothered me.
George Michael
Image
When you shake you ass, they notice fast. And some mistakes were built to last.
George Michael
Image
The Wham! thing was, as I said, very confusing, and much of our image was totally fake.

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

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
Image
I would advise any gay person that being out in the real sense can never happen too soon.
George Michael
Image
Yeah, I'm going to need a leather jacket for when I'm on my hog and need to go into a controlled slide.
George Michael
Image
I left school at 17 and was a star by the time I was 18 - in certain parts of the world anyway.
George Michael
Image
You'll never find peace of mind until you listen to your heart.
George Michael
Image
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.

Image
I also think I could probably repeat the commercial success whether I want to or not is a different matter. I think there is still better work inside me.

Image
You couldn't release the single on its own, because no one wanted it.

Image
[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.

I can't talk about Kathy [Jeung] anymore, because she doesn't want me to talk about her, and I'm not even sure that it's an ongoing relationship.
