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.

I do think that Live Aid (1985) (TV) was a great thing, it focused people, I think it showed young kids the way in many respects and I think a lot of people are still inspired by what happened in the mid-Eighties.
George Michael
