I dont think there any unlikable songs on Faith.

One of the best pop albums ever made.

Jesus to a Child was an incredible song too.

We're rooting for you George!

This song makes me think of a funeral for some reason which is why I grew to hate it until the Live In London dvd version which is sooooo much better to me.

The song has a strong gospel influence. I kept thinking hearing it that while he was working on the song he kept hearing Jackie, Marvin, Smokey, Aretha and Al and figured "how can I be able to do this with my voice?" And this was the closest he got. It worked since some soul singers later COVERED it. nod

This and "Father Figure" are my favorite GM songs. They both are beautifully sung and the videos are good as well.

SO true. I'm admittedly not much of a fan, but credit where credit is due....."Faith" is a MONOLITH of pop...and George's fall.....and the loss of his musical abilities in the last decade or so is tragic.

He's a rare talent & I hope he gets things sorted.

Mine too!

And speaking of live versions, I am also crazy for the Parkison Show performances of Different Corner & Outside.

I so love this song, the lyrics are...just wow! He's definitely a great song writer (I'm assuming he writes his music). I remember long after him coming out, so to speak, I listened to Freedom more closely and loved it so much more. He really sings from the heart.

He does nod

The same man who wrote stuff like Wham! Rap and Wake Me Up Before You Go Go also wrote Careless Whisper, A Different Corner, Through, Cowboys and Angels, Someone To Save, and Older

the man is truly a genius cool

His most beautiful and heartfelt ballad, I loved it to death when it came out, I felt his pain. I was all of 11. What I love is the way he sings it with such conviction.

So what are u going 2 do? R u just gonna sit there and watch? I'm not gonna stop until the war is over. Its gonna take a long time
