These are the days of the open hand
They will not be the last Look around now These are the days of the beggars and the choosers This is the year of the hungry man whose place is in the past Hand in hand with ignorance and legitimate excuses The rich declare themselves poor And most of us are not sure if we have too much But we'll taking our chance to say I sang twenty years and a day But nothing changed The human race found some other guy And walked into the flame And it's hard to love, there's so much to hate Hanging on to hope when there is no hope to speak of And the wounded skies above say it's much too late Well maybe we should all be praying for time |

His best song as far as I'm concerned, this should be the one that is re released in his memory.
It's a difficult choice-George has many amazing songs in his catalogue; I wonder what he'd choose himself? Since his passing I've listened non-stop to his work. I never really noticed before but some of his tracks... you can hear the sadness in his voice. |

Amazing is all about the joys of his open relationship with Kenny Goss; not sure the British public is ready for that yet. I think A Different Corner should be re-released if anything's going to be.
Amazing I was going down for the third time My heart was broken, I was not open to your suggestions I had so many questions That you just kissed away Tell me, I guess that cupid was in disguise The day you walked in and changed my life I think it's amazing, The way that love can set you free So now I walk in the midday sun I never thought that my saviour would come I think it's amazing I think it's amazing I think you're amazing You tried to save me from myself Said 'Darling ,kiss as many as you want! My love's still available And I know you're insatiable' |

Best George Michael song ever for me, so these are the lyrics that stuck;
When your heart's in someone else's hands Monkey see and monkey do Their wish is your command You're not to blame Everyone's the same All you do is love and love is all you do I should know by now the way I fought for you You're not to blame Everyone's the same I know you think that you're safe mister Harmless deception That keeps love at bay It's the ones who resist that we most want to kiss Wouldn't you say' Cowboys and angels They all have the time for you Why should I imagine that I'd be a find for you Why should I imagine That I'd have something to say But that scar on your face That beautiful face of yours In your heart there's a trace of someone before When your hearts in someone else's plans Things you say and things you do They don't understand It's such a shame Always ends the same You can call it love but I don't think it's true You should know by now I'm not the boy for you You're not to blame Always ends the same I know you think that you're safe sister Harmless affection That keeps things this way It's the ones who persist for the sake of a kiss Who will pay Cowboys and angels They all take a shine to you Why should I imagine that I was designed for you Why should I believe That you would stay But that scar on your face That beautiful face of yours Don't you think that I know They've hurt you before Take this man to your bed Maybe his hands will help you forget Please be stronger than your past The future may still give you a chance |

Waiting for the Day
So every day I see you in some other face They crack a smile, talk a while Try to take your place My memory serves me far too well I just sit here on this mountain thinking to myself You're a fool boy Why don't you go down Find somebody Find somebody else My memory serves me far too well It's not as though we just broke up It's not as though it was yesterday But something I just can't explain Something in me needs this pain I know I'll never see your face again C'mon now I've got to be strong now Now everybody's talking about this new decade Like you say the magic numbers Then just say goodbye to The stupid mistakes you made Oh my memory serves me far too well Don't you know that The years will come and go Some of us will change our lives Some of us still have nothing to show Nothing baby But memories And if these wounds They are self-inflicted I don't really know How my poor heart could have protected me But if I have to carry this pain If you will not share the blame I deserve to see your face again C'mon now You don't have to be so strong now Come back Come back to me darling I will make it worth your while Come back to your baby I miss your kiss I miss your smile Seems to me the peace I search to find Ain't going to be mine until you say you will Don't you keep me waiting for that day I know, I know, I know You hear these words that I say You can't always get what you want. |

The lyrics to:
One More Try; Kissing A Fool; You Have Been Loved: Praying for Time; In fact, I could go on. Poetry in song. But for a single line: 'Guilty feet, have got no rhythm'... |

For me, this is a very tough one to choose. He had so many beautiful heartbreaking emotive ones to choose from.
"There's something there that can't compare, with any other" - Kissing a fool. For me those lyrics sum up the fantastically talented gorgeous man that he was, because IMVHO, nobody does compare. It annoys me greatly that nowhere in any of the charts he is number one. For those people that haven't listened to his wonderful work, you are truly missing out. |

I always find the lyrics to Monkey fit in to some scenarios in life, and correct me if i am wrong deals with addiction, with the 'monkey' being the addiction;
Why can't you do it? Why can't you set your monkey free? Always giving in to it - Do you love the monkey or do you love me? Why can't you do it Why do i have to share my baby with a monkey? Oh i hate your friends But i don't know how and i don't know when To open your eyes Yes the monkey's back again Do you want him now like you did back then? I tried my best But your head is such a mess So i guess that i don't want you anymore Well you say you care about me That you just can't do without me But you keep on dancin' baby 'Til that monkey has you on the floor |

In the absence of security
Made my way into the night Stupid cupid keeps on calling me But I see nothing in his eyes I miss my baby, oh yeah I miss my baby, tonight So why don't we make a little room In my BMW babe Searchin' for some peace of mind Hey, I'll help you find it I do believe that we are practicing the same religion (Fastlove) |
