Few artists could tread into genuinely emotive tear-stained soul like George without resorting to mawkish over-sentimentality but his visceral examination of a fractured relationship on One More Try still sounds astonishing from the pen of someone aged only 24.

tracks from his enormously successful solo career including 'Faith', 'Father Figure', 'A Different Corner', 'Heal the Pain', 'Jesus to a Child', 'Freedom '90', 'I Want Your Sex', 'Outside' and more.Models Naomi Campbell, Linda Evangelista, Tatjana Patitz, Christy Turlington, and Cindy Crawford lip sync the song in place of Michael, who is absent from the video. Secret Love (“My secret love’s no secret any more”) is, of course, dripping with meaning since George’s coming out but he doesn’t labour the point here, merely sounding joyous about it. Includes: "Club Tropicana", "Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go", "Freedom", "Last Christmas", "Everything She Wants", "I'm Your Man", "The Edge of Heaven", "Careless Whisper", "A Different Corner", "I Knew You Were Waiting (For Me)", "I Want Your Sex", "Faith", "Father Figure", "One More Try", "Monkey", "Kissing a Fool", "Freedom!

There’s also the bonus on the CD of the unreleased Fantasy, boasting a trademark choppy guitar accompaniment from Chic’s Nile Rodgers. I f one of Faith’s trump cards had been the provocative way it set out George’s stall as a sexed-up mature artist, Listen Without Prejudice Vol 1’s title alone was wilfully confrontational – an assured (and perhaps a little narked) dig at critics who still saw him as pop product. Alison Bellach from The Daily Vault gave the album an A− and wrote that "the collection is amazing" and that she was "pleased to note that the album included "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me", a duet with Elton John recorded for the Duets album", but she complained about "the version of "I Want Your Sex" that was chosen" because according to her "the original was something I could laugh at or snicker about" and the chosen version "doesn't even afford the listener a standard melody. It is certified 7 times platinum in the United Kingdom and is Michael’s most commercially successful album in his homeland having sold more than 2. The album peaked at number one in the UK Albums Chart, and was certified 4× Platinum by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI).The covers are impeccably chosen, of course, and not without pertinence to the rest of Michael’s traditional songwriting concerns.

Equally, a hushed reboot of The Police’s Roxanne is an anti-prostitution plea wrapped in a love song.Amazing" did not enter the Billboard Hot 100, but peaked at number eight on the Hot Singles Sales chart.
