Hi guys! Here's my attempt for this great 80's Classic, and in my opinion, one of the best love songs ever written. this is definitely one of the most difficult songs to hold as a singer.
George Michael was my idol, I've looked up to him ever since I can remember, So I really do hope I've done this beautiful song justice.
Just one of the legendary and well known song all around the world and so nice and groovy bassline, that you can't stand against nailing it. I've done it not so perfect, just should practice few days more.
A tribute to Sir George Michael
"Careless Whisper" is a 1984 single by George Michael (sometimes credited to Wham! featuring George Michael in Japan, Canada and the United States), released by Epic Records in the United Kingdom, Japan, and other countries; and by Columbia Records in North America. The song was George Michael's first solo single although he was still performing in Wham! at the time (the song is included on Wham! album Make It Big). The song features a prominent saxophone riff, and has been covered by a number of artists since its first release. It was released as a single and became a huge commercial success on both sides of the Atlantic and on both sides of the Pacific. It reached number one in nearly 25 countries, selling about six million copies worldwide.

I posted a short clip of this on my instagram story a few weeks ago and got a lot of messages asking for a full version... well heres a slightly longer version haha. I love this melody❤️
A song that needs no inintroduction. Sadly he left us 5 years ago just on. so I'm glad to remember him these days releasing this guitar cover.
This is a short video I just recorded ! I tried to conceive the saxophone's magestic sound of the song Careless Whisper of George Michael with my guitathis
Lyrics of this song:
I feel so unsure
As I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor
As the music dies, something in your eyes
Calls to mind a silver screen
And all its sad good-byes
I'm never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool
Should've known better than to cheat a friend
And waste the chance that I'd been given
So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you
Time can never mend
The careless whispers of a good friend
To the heart and mind
Ignorance is kind
There's no comfort in the truth
Pain is all you'll find
I'm never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool
I should've known better than to cheat a friend
And waste the chance that I'd been given
So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you, ohh
Never without your love
Tonight the music seems so loud
I wish that we could lose this crowd
Maybe it's better this way
We'd hurt each other with the things we'd want to say
We could have been so good together
We could have lived this dance forever
But no one's gonna dance with me
Please stay
And I'm never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool
Should've known better than to cheat a friend
And waste the chance that I'd been given
So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you
Now that you're gone
(Now that you're gone) Was what I did's so wrong, so wrong
That you had to leave me alone?
