the only song that's not really that great is cowboys and angels. it's pretty underwhelming especially compared to the rest. but it's still not bad. it kind of fits Older better rather than LWP. the best song from this album is obviously praying for time but then waiting is a close second. so good

I obviously like his others songs but I think these are my top 3 rn bc it’s always changing. I want to hear other peoples favorites pls recommend me ur fav songs of his! I’ll listen to anything :)

This album is my absolute favorite album in the whole world. It helped me through a hard time and period in my life, and George’s lyrics made me feel less alone. Confused, humiliated, and lost. I always come back to it. I bought the exclusive vinyl edition when it came out a few years ago, and today my wife came home with a mint copy of the CD, so now my collection is complete. Damn, we’ve smoked a lot of joints and had so many amazing conversations with this album playing in the background.

George only got better with age, and Patience is right on the heels of this album, but I truly believe this is his absolute magnum opus.

What do the rest of you think about Older? And how many versions/editions of the album do you own?

I've been looking to see the general consensus between the two, personally I'm only familiar with the standard edition of Twenty Five as it's the only one I have so far, what does the community by and large think? Closest thing I've found for a comparison between the two is a Steve Hoffman Forums thread from Twenty Five's release.

To give my two cents, I've been loving the latter, but am disappointed by the lack of songs from Songs from The Last Century and the overabundance of songs from Patience (as in, 13 songs, the whole album give or take). Still, the track listing is nice and admittedly it has convinced me to buy the album so, eh.

I love the fact the George and Stevie had a special friendship. George said that he liked to cover Stevie’s songs because they were the right pitch for him and were also brilliant.

Who are the two girls on the left in the video for Wake me up before you Go Go. Obviously the two on the right are Pepsi and Shirley. Were the two on the left actual singers for the band at some point or were they just actors for the video? I have always wondered who they are.

My favourite karaoke song for summer resorts!

I was shocked to find someone had uploaded the full Madison Square Garden 1991 C2C show in great quality last year and remarkably it's still up!

Arguably one of his finest live performances with terrific versions of Mother's Pride, Waiting for That Day, They Won't Go, acoustic Freedom 84 and lots more (setlist here)

Note: though the description says October 25, 1991, it's actually the October 26 show (as George says it's Saturday and references the performance from the previous night).

So see/grab it before it disappears.

So I've seen some old news and article here and there about A possible WHAM reunion in early 2010s but George's manager said no or something

Would you think it could've happened actually, I think it would've been amazing if GM ended his Career with Andrew in A reunion tour

This single includes:
-One More Try
-Look at Your Hands

“Kissing a Fool” reimagined as a ‘dance club’ track. This is a tribute / cover video, made from scratch in my home studio. Images of George Michael throughout are from a live performance of the song. Thanks 🙏 to everyone who gave me positive feedback on the draft version of the video! I’m curious, is there a living performer who you’d like to see do this kind of dance version of “Kissing a Fool”? #GeorgeMichael #Faith
