More quotes by George Michael
Andrew [Ridgeley] and I had demoed a couple of our songs very cheaply, and we weren't expecting any kind of record deal. We just walked around with our demo tape, trying to find someone to give us the money to demo properly. Instead of that, we got a record contract. It was just an incredibly lucky break.
George Michael
When you shake you ass, they notice fast. And some mistakes were built to last.
George Michael
I find it too terrifying to go out in L.A.
George Michael
I suppose romantically there are fantasies that can still be realized. But not professionally.
George Michael
I'm looking back to a period of my life when I was badly hurt and then looking at another time when I felt I had things going for me again, so I suppose there is a theme [of the Faith album].
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
You'll never find peace of mind until you listen to your heart.
George Michael
I hope it really comes off. It would make my dad really proud. (about the song for the coming 2004 Summer Olympic Games in Athens, Greece)
George Michael
It's absolutely essential that we have the same safeguards that straight couples do. But I want more than a 50 percent chance of success. I don't want to emulate that.
George Michael
I want to make a pop album - something more upbeat than my stuff was in the '90s.
George Michael
I have no doubt that the music I release next will be better.
George Michael
I would advise any gay person that being out in the real sense can never happen too soon.
George Michael
[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.
George Michael
Freedom. I won't let you down.
George Michael
I hate the actual traveling, but I like playing.
George Michael
I still believe that music is one of the greatest gifts that God gave to man.
George Michael
No fantasies, I don't think. Most of my fantasies have already been realized.
George Michael
Satire is used for political purposes all the time, but obviously there's a time and a place. I think in the current climate, it can be very difficult to speak your mind, but sometimes, I believe, we're all in danger and I think this discussion needs to be widened.
George Michael
I went through a long period where I was afraid of doing things I wanted to do, and you get your courage back, which is what's important.
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
