Quote

I couldn't change anything without changing the end position, and I'm perfectly happy now. So whatever I feel in some sense may have been a mistake in the past is, in another sense, not a mistake, because it's left me here.

Yog is an abbreviation - my real name is Yorgos, which is Greek for George.

I don't want to look at other people my age in leather. Why would I put it on?

This stuff [marijuana] keeps me sane and happy. I'd say it's a great drug - but obviously it's not very healthy.

When Andrew [Ridgeley] first met my family, he heard my mom calling me Yorgos. He just abbreviated it to Yog, and unfortunately it stuck. I hated it is a teenager. It was not the most glamorous-sounding name in the world.

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.

I hate the actual traveling, but I like playing.

Everything was meant to wind people up [in Make It Big ]. I don't know why we had this great pleasure in winding people up, but we really did think they would get the joke. And it backfired on us.

Image
I define my sexuality in terms of the people that I love.
George Michael
Image
I didn't expect to enter into tabloid trivia or anything like that. So I suspect my perspective and a lot of my ideas changed fairly drastically. It was also rather confusing.

Image
I have definitely reached the same level as Madonna in terms of sales. I'm really pleased about that.
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.
George Michael
Image
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
Image
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
Image
When someone is always going to be there for you. I meet people like that all the time, but I have this unfortunate attraction to people I think I have to fight to become friends with.
George Michael
Image
I want the people who came to listen to have a good time as well. So it's a matter of playing a control game when all I really want to do is go out there and sing.
George Michael

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.
