Freedom! 90 - George Michael

Back


This 1990 music video, directed by David Fincher, is most certainly among my select all-time favorites.

Featuring the nineties dominating Trinity of supermodels, that is Linda Evangelista, Naomi Campbell and Christy Turlington - and adding Tatjana Patitz and Cindy Crawford - this video became iconic in its own use of icons.

George Michael refused to be a visual part of this video to a song which was clearly supposed to visualize his break with his Wham! (and Sony) past. Pay attention to the destruction of items representing his past, such as the leather jacket.

A great song, wonderful video that matches the song and then adds some.

George Michael's career has manifested in a number of great music videos. I can recommend you to get the two disc DVD "Twenty Five" featuring forty music videos, among them Careless Whisper, Roxanne and including Wham! classics such as Club Tropicana and Last Christmas.

nobody deserves to make a cover, the song and the video is flawless. A cover would only defile this work of musical art
