Hey all. I talked to my sister this afternoon and told her I'd be sending
the
October 25th YOGMAIL--the one dedicated to her--and quoted her the last
tribute line: "My eternal love and thanks for truly
changing the way I listen
to music" to which she proudly said "I sure did."
AND AWAY WE GO...

Hello all!
I just wanted to tell
people that my son who is six, told me that he wants to
be a singer like George Michael! I was so happy to hear that. It would be
cool
if someday he does make in the business, and he wins a award.When gets
up on stage he says his major infulence was George
Michael!! I guess it is
nice to dream anyway. I just wanted share this with someone who would
understand my enthusim about my
sons decision, I hope he sticks with it. So
far it looks good he wants to watch his videos and listens to his tapes all
the
time,of course I don't mind.Well thanks for letting me ramble on.
(You ramble about your son all you want! Should he ever have
a number one, I
hope I'll be able to score an autographed picture for my wall of fame. I
take great pride in the fact that my
13 year old niece spent a lot of last
summer with me and my friends listening to Madonna, and she regularly
lectures her
friends on who George Michael is too... AG)
Thanks again Amanda for putting all this together, I know you have heard it
before
but it is really appreciated.
(You're very welcome, and I'm glad I could do this for everyone. AG)

I must confess I don't have "Older" yet because I was

It's
nice to receive your message.
I've attached to George Michael's music since I was a teen. I respect him as
an outstanding
musician and songwriter. He deserved that there are so many
people to support and love him.
Just want to share this with
you, Dick Leahy Music is George Michael's music
publish company. It can be found on the WWW by searching for "Dick Leahy
Music"
under entertainment.
(Thanks for the tip. AG)
Thanks for the information to all who are involved with YOGMAIL.
You
truly are quite informative with regards to THE MAN... GEORGE MICHAEL.
For those of you who are not in the know... sometime in
December George will
be performing on MTV Unplugged... check your local listing for time and date.
(December 10th at I
believe 9pm in the US. AG)
Otherwise YOG... as always keep me in the know of our favorite SUPERSTAR.
Although its true
that we americans are in fact fanatical about jeans...there
are some of us who appreciate the finer linens in life.
(Here
here!!! Out with the Levi's, and in with the Versace and Armani!! AG)
I must admit that OLDER...although good... did not fully
express, in my
thoughts, the George Michael we have all grown to Love. I believe this is
due to all the stress and frustration
a talent and artist such as George
underwent when the Sony war commenced.
(I don't know about that... AG)
I hope to
GOD that when George begins work on his new album... that he can
once again grasp the energy within his soul that has always made
him the
talented Writer, Musician, Artist, Performer and Mega Superstar we all know
him to be.
Please do not view this
as a critique on my part... rather see it as someone
who admires this man with such passion... as someone who has seen this man
live...
conversated with him on two occassions and who... if I may be so
bold... feels that he is someone who's heart and soul becomes
one and one
who is capable of reaching vocal tones that no man on earth can reach unless
they we in tune with elements or
dimensions not of this earth... If you think
about the man's voice you all will agree... for a man... he's got a KILLER
VOICE...
have any of you ever asked where does it come from?
(Killer voice indeed. God given talent I suppose. AG)
Needless to
say... thank you for your time.

Hi
Amanda
in London this morning. Chris Evans the
Breakfast Show DJ and is in the
process of setting up an interview with George (I think to coincide with the
transmission on
the Radio One Concert). It is George's idea and he really
wants to do it - an hour long interview - but will only do it with
Chris.
Chris said this morning that he would have assumed that "his" people (Radio
One) and George's people would
make all the arrangements and let them both
know when it has been set up. But no. He said that no-one else had got
around to
doing anything about it and that George's people want Chris to ring
George personally (he actually had George's phone no. in his
hand !!!!) at
home and for the two of them to set it up themselves. Chris rang George
yesterday and is now waiting for George
to ring him back to make the final
details. Watch this space.
if/when I hear anything else.
interview with "The Big Issue" which is a magazine in London which the
homeless
people sell in the street. They pay a small amount the for magazine
themselves and keep whatever they make on after that.
with it all!

knows them he
is keeping quiet on this one - maybe on George's request. I would also think

than TV (Chris Evans does both), but time
will tell.

Guide it states that on Thursday November 14,1996 at 7pm(central time) the
MTV
Europe Music Awards will air!!!!!!!! I was so happy to see this, if you
need a copy I will be more than happy to dub it for you!!
Also, in the new
Rolling Stone magazine(November 28, 1996) there is a great new picture of
George singing at the MTV unplugged
show(without the sunglasses). It is
under Random Notes, p.25 and Rolling Stone can be quite sarcastic at times,
but here is
what it said:
"Just stop for a second-I'm not plugged in ," said George Michael. Uh,
will someone tell this man the
point of Unplugged? At the London taping of
said MTV special, Michael covered Bonnie Raitt's "I Can't Make You Love Me"
and
performed "Everything She Wants," from his Wham! days. He was most
proud, however, of his natty dark suit. "Very
sexy, isn't it?" asked
Michael. "I feel like Morrissey."
