George Michael's Stevie Wonder Covers

I recently bought George Michael's 'Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me' EP, which includes live covers of I Believe (When I Fall In Love It Will Be Forever) and If You Were My Woman, both fantastic renditions. Anyone else heard these versions?

It made me realise just how many Stevie covers he's done, cos he also did They Won't Go When I Go, As, and wasn't there a cover of Love's In Need on the flip side of Father Figure?

I'd love to hear George do Knocks Me Off My Feet!

Also on that EP was Freedom '90 (Back To Reality Mix), anyone dig this too? He incorporates Back To Life quite well, the songs are a good fit.

He apparently covered "Village Ghetto Land" as well. The few I've heard (TWGWIG and As) are great.

BTW, "If You Were My Woman" is a cover of "If I Were Your Woman" by Gladys Knight & the Pips.

It might look that way if you're American, but his career's alive and in good health here and in Europe, where his November/December tour was an instant sellout. He's also still making great music too, and he's still selling plenty of records.

George's only problem is that he gets caught literally fucking around in public a lot. lol
There are three sides to every story. My side, your side, and the truth. And no one is lying. Memories shared serve each one differently
