No fantasies, I don't think. Most of my fantasies have already been realized.
George Michael

I'm basically a control freak. It's not because I want to be. I'm not at all into the power play that's involved in it.

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
Image
The thing that's weird is that we thought it was funny. We expected people to get the joke - that we [with Andrew Ridgeley] were two guys really making asses of ourselves.

50 percent of the people I perform for have come to scream at me and the other 50 percent have come to listen to the music.

My parents both came from very poor working-class families.

A lot of people felt that I was just tying that into the I Want Your Sex theme because of the AIDS thing and the prospect of the song's being banned. I thought it was a relevant point to make because of the AIDS thing. I wanted to write a song which sounded dirty but which was applicable to someone that I really cared about. That was my point.

I am a political person, though not with a big P.

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.

I still believe that music is one of the greatest gifts that God gave to man.

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
I don't consider Americans bullies, but I do consider the American government bullying.
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.

Freedom. I won't let you down.

You'll never find peace of mind until you listen to your heart.

[Tabloids] could call you a child molester, I suppose, but they just go for the two things they think people are most likely to believe and that will most offend yourself and your popularity. My skin hardened to all that stuff years ago.

I have to believe that somebody up there thinks I've still got some work to do.

Both of us knew the band had run its course. We were both unhappy doing it, but I think the way Andrew [Ridgeley] was being treated as the less important half of the duo had finally taken its toll on him.

I have no doubt that the music I release next will be better.

My dad worked in a very typical first-generation immigrant fashion - 24 hours a day for years.
