Love Machine
George Michael and Wham! Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm just a love machine
And I won't work for nobody but you,
I'm just a love machine,
A huggin', kissin' fiend.
I think it's high time you knew,
Whenever I think of you,
When I look in you eyes,
My meter starts to rise, and I become confused.
My voltage regulator cools,
When I'm sitting next to you,
Electricity starts to flow,
And my indicator starts to glow, wo
[Chorus]
Na, na na na na, na na na na, woo-woo-wooo
Na, na na na na, na na na na, na naaah
[Chorus]
I'm gentle as a lamb,
I'm not that hard to program,
There's no way that you can lose,
My chassis fits like a glove,
I've got a button for love,
That you have got-to-use.
If you look into my file,
I am sure you can find out how,
To turn me on just set my dial,
And let me love you for a little while, ooh
[Chorus]
Na, na na na na, na na na na, woo-woo-wo
Na, na na na na, na na na na, na naaah
I'm just a love machine
And I won't work for nobody but you.
I'm just a love machine
A huggin' kissin' fiend.
The song "Love Machine" by George Michael and Wham! is a classic example of a romantic song with a fun twist. The lyrics speak of someone who is so in love with their partner that they feel like a machine built just for them. They claim that they won't work for anyone else and are a "huggin', kissin' fiend". The chorus is catchy with the repetition of the line "I'm just a love machine", and the variation within the line, "and I won't work for nobody but you". The lyrics suggest that they are completely devoted to their partner and that being around them sets off a figurative electric spark within them.
The second verse continues with the same theme, with the singer claiming that they are "not that hard to program" and that their "chassis fits like a glove". The use of machine-like language has a humorous aspect to it but also shows the depth of devotion and commitment to the partner. The last two lines of each verse add a touch of confusion and excitement, with the mention of the mind "blowing a fuse" and the "voltage regulator cooling" when they are close to their partner. Ultimately, the song expresses the idea that the singer is devoted entirely to their partner and that they want to be with them forever.

Koa Staats
Underrated song, George was one of those rare artists where he almost sounded even better live than recorded. We miss you George!
Chica 80tosa
Never compares anybody with him๐
His voice and music Is untouchable
Christopher Ramon-Reid
Koa Staats I agree totally. His voice just seemed effortless. Maybe people will dispute me, but, I think heโs one of the greatest male singers of all time.
Mikel Andonegi
This is a The Miraclesโ song from 1975 , early Disco.
SuperBodwin
but he is miming in this performance, it was re-recorded with live vocals in the studio before this performance and can be found on the b-side to the Club Fantastic Megamix single.
Leo - A Family Vlog Channel
Because he is the genuine artist
Tara Jensen
I cant decide if he sounded better live or in the recordings. I know that when he was recording he was an absolute perfectionist.
The Tufty Clubber
The album recording was amazing. I've never heard him sing this live until today and he rocked it.
_Radion_
Hate to break it to you but this is exclusively pre-recorded, they messed up the lipsync at the start of the song which is why the video starts after the first verse
Bryan
@_Radion_ true but itโs definitely a different version than the album version. Not sure how they did it here it looks so real when lip synced
