Born in East Finchley, Middlesex, Michael rose to fame after forming the pop duo Wham! with Andrew Ridgeley in 1981. Their first two albums, "Fantastic" (1983) and "Make It Big" (1984), reached number one on the US Billboard 200 and UK Albums Chart. They had commercial success with singles "Wham Rap! (Enjoy What You Do)", "Young Guns (Go for It)", "Bad Boys", "Club Tropicana", "Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go", "Last Christmas", "Everything She Wants", “Freedom”, and “I'm Your Man”. Their 1985 tour in China was the first by a Western popular music act and generated worldwide media coverage. Michael took part in Band Aid's UK number-one single "Do They Know It's Christmas?" in 1984 and performed at the following year's Live Aid concert.
Michael's first solo single, "Careless Whisper" (1984), reached number one in over 20 countries, including the UK and US. The second solo single, "A Different Corner", also reached number one in 1986. After Wham! disbanded that year, Michael released the number-one duet with Aretha Franklin, "I Knew You Were Waiting (For Me)". His debut solo album, "Faith" (1987), stayed at number one on the Billboard 200 for 12 weeks and topped the UK Albums Chart. It is one of the best-selling albums of all time, having sold over 25 million copies worldwide. The singles "Faith", "Father Figure", "One More Try", and "Monkey" reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100. Michael became the best-selling music artist of 1988, and "Faith" was awarded Album of the Year at the 1989 Grammy Awards. Michael's second solo album, "Listen Without Prejudice Vol. 1" (1990), was also a number one in the UK and yielded the Billboard Hot 100 number one "Praying for Time" and the worldwide hit "Freedom! '90". Michael went on to release a series of multimillion-selling albums, including "Older" (1996), "Ladies & Gentlemen: The Best of George Michael" (1998), "Songs from the Last Century" (1999), "Patience" (2004), and "Twenty Five" (2006). The albums earned him multiple hits such as "Jesus to a Child", "Fastlove", "Outside", "Amazing", and "An Easier Affair".
Michael came out as gay in 1998 and was an active LGBT rights campaigner and HIV/AIDS charity fundraiser. His personal life, drug use, and legal troubles made headlines following an arrest for public lewdness in 1998 and multiple drug-related offenses. The 2005 documentary "A Different Story" covered his career and personal life. Michael's "25 Live" tour spanned three tours from 2006 to 2008. Michael fell into a coma in 2011 during a bout with pneumonia but later recovered. He performed his final concert at London's Earls Court in 2012. Michael died of heart disease on Christmas Day in 2016 at his home in Goring-on-Thames, Oxfordshire.

I Want Your Sex Part 1
George Michael Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And things that you know
There's boys you can trust
And girls that you don't
There's little things you hide
And little things that you show
Sometimes you think you're gonna get it
But you don't and that's just the way it goes
I swear I won't tease you
Won't tell you no lies
I don't need no bible
Just look in my eyes
I've waited so long baby
Now that we're friends
Every man's got his patience
And here's where mine ends
I want your sex
I want your love
I want your sex
I want your, sex
It's playing on my mind
It's dancing on my soul
It's taken so much time
So why don't you just let me go
I'd really like to try
Oh I'd really love to know
When you tell me you're gonna regret it
Then I tell you that I love you but you still say no!
I swear I won't tease you
Won't tell you no lies
I don't need no bible
Just look in my eyes
I've waited so long baby
Out in the cold
But I can't take much more girl
I'm losing control
I want your sex
I want your love
I want your sex
I want your, sex, sex
It's natural
It's chemical (let's do it)
It's logical
Habitual (can we do it?)
It's sensual
But most of all
Sex is something that we should do
Sex is something for me and you
Sex is natural, sex is good
Not everybody does it
But everybody should
Sex is natural, sex is fun
Sex is best when it's, one on one
One on one
I'm not your father
I'm not your brother
Talk to your sister
I am a lover
C-c-c-c-come on
What's your definition of dirty baby
What do you consider pornography
Don't you know I love you till it hurts me baby
Don't you think it's time you had sex with me
What's your definition of dirty baby
What do you call pornography
Don't you know I love you till it hurts me baby
Don't you think it's time you had sex with me
Sex with me
Sex with me
Have sex with me
C-c-c-c-come on
Oh so much love
That you've never seen
Let's make love
Put your trust in me
Don't you listen to what they told you
Because I love you
Let me hold you
Oh
I'm not your brother
I'm not your father
Oh will you ever change your mind
I'm a gentle lover with a heart of gold
But baby you've been so unkind
Come on
I want your sex
Come on
I want your sex
That's right, all night
Oh I want your sex
I want your, sex
Sexy baby's
Sexy body
Keeps me guessing
With a promise
I know we can come together
But the question is
Will we ever ever?
Sexy baby's
(Sexy baby's)
Sexy body
(Sexy body)
Keeps me guessing
With a promise
I know we can come together
But the question is
Will we ever ever?
Together, you and me
"I Want Your Sex" is a song by the late George Michael, released as a single in 1987. Its lyrics were considered controversial at the time due to its explicit sexual nature, but Michael insisted that the song was encouraging safe and consensual sex. The song starts off with Michael acknowledging how men and women are raised differently in society, with girls often being told not to trust boys. He then goes on to swear that he won't lie to his lover and that he doesn't need the Bible to prove his love. Michael sings about how he has been waiting for his lover and how his patience has finally run out. He then expresses his desire for sex and love from his partner, acknowledging the sensual, logical, and habitual aspects of it. The song ends with Michael pleading for his lover to have sex with him and making a promise of love.
The lyrics, as explicit as they are, address important societal issues such as how women are taught not to trust men and how sex should be approached with consent, love, and respect. Michael's insistence on the importance of safe sex and the role of consent in sexual encounters came as a response to the ongoing AIDS epidemic at that time.

Then I profess my love for you but you still turn me down

I'm losing my composure

What's your definition of dirty baby

What is your definition of pornography?

Don't you think it's time for us to finally have sex?
Sexy baby's
You are a sexy baby
Sexy body
Your body is very sexy
Keeps me guessing
Your allure has me constantly wondering
With a promise
With the promise of an intimate relationship
I know we can come together
I believe that our bodies and minds can unite in sex
But the question is
But the question still remains
Will we ever ever?
Will we ever have sex together?
Together, you and me
Together, we can make this happen

Il y a des choses que tu devines
Et d'autres que tu connais déjà
Il y a des garçons en qui tu as confiance
Et des filles en qui tu doutes
Il y a des petites choses que tu caches
Et d'autres petites choses que tu montres
Parfois tu penses pouvoir franchir le pas
Puis tu ne le fais pas et la vie suit son cours
Je jure, je ne veux pas te tourmenter
Je ne veux pas te raconter des mensonges
Je n'ai pas besoin de bibles
Regardes juste dans mes yeux
J'ai tant attendu bébé
Maintenant que nous sommes amis
Beaucoup d'hommes garderaient leur patience
Mais moi la mienne s’arrête ici
Je veux te faire l'amour
Je te veux
Je veux te faire l'amour
Ca joue dans mon esprit
Ca danse dans mon âme
Ca prend trop de temps
Alors pourquoi ne pas me laisser partir ?
Je voudrais vraiment essayer de comprendre
Oh ! j'aimerais vraiment savoir pourquoi
Quand tu me racontes que tu vas le regretter
Je te dis que je t'aime, mais ça reste toujours NON
Je jure, je ne veux pas te tourmenter
Je ne veux pas te raconter des mensonges
Je n'ai pas besoin de bibles
Regardes juste dans mes yeux
J'ai tant attendu, bébé
Dehors dans le froid
Je ne peux plus tenir, fille
Je perds tout controle
Je veux te faire l'amour
Je veux ton amour
Je veux te faire l'amour
C'est naturel
C'est chimique ( faisons le ! )
C'est dans la logique
Habituel ( pouvons nous le faire ? )
C'est sensuel
Mais plus que tout... .
L'amour est quelque chose qu'on devrait faire
L'amour est quelque chose pour toi et moi
L'amour c'est naturel - l'amour c'est bon
Tout le monde ne le fait pas
Mais tout le monde le devrait
L'amour c'est naturel - l'amour c'est amusant
L'amour c'est mieux quand on est l'un sur l'autre
L'un sur l'autre
Je ne suis pas ton père
Je ne suis pas ton frère
Pour parler, va voir ta soeur
Moi je suis un Amoureux/Amant
Allez viens
C'est quoi ta définition de ce qui est sale, bébé
Qu'est-ce que tu considères comme pornographique ?
Ne sais tu pas que je t'aime et que ça me blesse
Ne penses tu pas qu'il est temps de coucher avec moi ?
C'est quoi ta définition de ce qui est sale, bébé
Qu'est-ce que tu appelles "pornographie" ?
Ne sais tu pas que je t'aime et que ça me blesse
Ne penses tu pas qu'il est temps de coucher avec moi ?
Coucher avec moi
Coucher avec moi
De coucher avec moi
