The main downside was that it fame happened so quickly and I didn't have time to establish what kind of person I wanted to be.

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 -
I suppose romantically there are fantasies that can still be realized. But not professionally.
George Michael -
I can't believe that I've written my best work yet. If I believed that, then I wouldn't bother releasing music anymore.

I mean, it is the perfect situation to really love someone to death and to want to rip their clothes off at the same time, isn't it?

My dad worked in a very typical first-generation immigrant fashion - 24 hours a day for years.
George Michael -
I can't bear Catholicism.

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.
George Michael -
Yet "One More Try" really seemed to connect with people, which is a wonderful thing and a marvelous coincidence.

I had my very first relationship at 27 because I really had not actually come to terms with my sexuality until I was 24.

Me, I don’t want any children, I don’t want responsibility. I am gay, I smoke weed and I do exactly what I want in my life because of my talent. I represent an ideal which others have had to let go and they blame me for that. Especially men.

I guess I was about 15. I wore glasses at the time, and I remember first girlfriend sitting on the floor at a party, one of those school parties where everyone is getting off with each other. I remember her taking my glasses off and saying something very complimentary about my eyes or whatever, and I was just so pissed off because I was convinced she was taking the piss out of me.

I don't really feel I deserve something if I haven't had to fight for it. It's not a conscious attitude, and it's stupid and wrong. Sometimes you do deserve things without having to put yourself through agony.

It's so easy to find someone who would walk around me like a shadow and do everything for me and never be tempted by other men, so obviously I'm not attracted by that type.
George Michael -
I still believe that music is one of the greatest gifts that God gave to man.
George Michael -
This is a very fickle business. It's really about how much you value the other things in your life. I still value too many other things more than I do fame.

Marriage still means a lot more in the country I come from than it does here. I don't think there's anything to be gained by it for the couple. But for children I think it's an important thing.
George Michael -
I went to prison, I paid my bill.
George Michael -
I've never done anything so political before. I've spent years shouting my mouth off about serious issues over dinner tables but never really had the confidence to express my views in a song.
