Michael, George - The Strangest Thing 97 Lyrics






Take My Life
Time has been twisting the knife
I don't recognise
People i care for

Take my dreams
Childish and weak at the seams
Please don't analyse
Please just be there for me

The things that i know
Nobody told me
The seeds that are sown
They still control me
There's a liar in my head
There's a thief upon my bed
And the strangest thing
Is i cannot get my eyes open

Take my hand
Lead me to some peaceful land
That i cannot find
Inside my head

Wake me with love
It's all i need
But in all this time
Still no one said...

If i had not asked
Would you have told me
If you call this love
Why don't you hold me

There's a liar in my head
There's a thief upon my bed
And the strangest thing
Is i cannot get my eyes open

Give me something i can hold
Give me something to believe in
I am frightened for my soul, please, please
Make love to me, send love through me
Heal me with your crime
The only one who ever knew me,
We've wasted so much time
So much time

  1. r.... f....

  2. M.... C....

    The best...R.I.P.

  3. m.... L....

    I love you my Angel ❤❤❤❤

  4. E.... M....

    Non ti perdonero’ mai per essertene andato cosi presto...

  5. D.... ....

    The album version is so much better. This doesn't deal with the atmosphere of the song very well.

  6. i.... ....

    I find this song really mystical and somewhat ghostly.

    It reminds me of ancient monuments and ghostly ruins and their mysteries.

  7. �.... ....

    노래가 좋으네요~

  8. I.... ....

    It's third party remix, people...listen to the original version and see how amazing this song is

  9. M.... H....

    I think George missed his mum so much listen to the lyrics they are about people he loved and about suicide

  10. d.... ....

    This is also one of my ALL time favourites from our beloved George, i listen to him EVERY single day, watch his concerts, makes me so happy to hear his voice, his texts mean the world to me: "if you call this love why dont you hold me"?.... this entire song is a amaaaaaazing, Thank you George for all you left us.

  11. L.... O....

    Liar in my head thief in my bed. I fear for my soul. Great hidden meaning. Autobiographical. I have a theory about the meaning of this and it is ominous. GM needed to pay more attention to what he was saying to himself. He might be alive if he did. Love ❤️ this man. Philosophical and deep.

  12. s.... s....

    So true to my life now

  13. n.... 0....

  33. M.... H....

  34. T.... F....

    I don't know where I was (raising twins perhaps) but I missed ever hearing this song ... I sure am going to miss him. I've been listening to his music pretty much nonstop since he passed away. His songs had such depth to them ... so talented. What a loss ...

    I Love This song very much, it was my first time listen to it. imagine yourself driving a Porche with a pair tinted sunglasses on a long , winding, narrow road on top of the mountain.

    J.... D....

    Lilian Chan, Nothing better than listening to good music whilst on the road. We listened to his music a lot last year on our road trip,up North of Scotland and down South.Sad that George is no longer with us.

  43. c.... ....

  55. R.... ....

    'Older' is sooo damn good…and this remix is just a great "bonus" to the original song… He needs to tour America soon !

  56. A.... D....

    "If you call this love... why don't you hooooooollllllldddddd meeeeeeeeeeee" :) :)

  57. A.... L....

    this song always makes me cry... but is my fav and I  love it so much <3 George, you have the most beautiful voice from  the world! You'll always be number one for me! <3 

    A.... L....

    Elvis just made some listing for the "best voice ever"… George doesn't get his due for his voice….nor does Elton John… 

  58. A.... S....

    this is the better version than the one that appeared in "older"

  59. b.... b....

    Great singer with great videos.He 's got a great voice and charisma that few people have .

  60. M.... T....

    strangest thing is that there is fast love

  61. C.... H....

    this has a greek sound to it

  62. N.... ....

    for years I can't stop listening this song..the best!

  63. H.... ....

  64. S.... A....

    One of his best..

  65. 4.... ....

    i love him

  66. j.... d....

    these lyrics were written out at my beloveds funeral..they made so much sense....

  67. D.... �....

    Simplemente otra genialidad de un genio. George, eres de otro planeta. Te adoro como musico y persona.

  68. o.... ....

    @aljanah223 that's hardly a problem. he has the right to love any one he chooses. it doesn't affect his talent and success by any means. you don't have to agree with his preferences; just let him be who he is without any judgment. Enjoy his music, because in the case of his songs, that's what counts.

  69. m.... s....

    woooooow nice song thes artest the best but his proplem is gay yaaaaaaak!!

  70. M.... ....

    Just great...

  71. S.... L....

    Great song, its one of my favorites end the original vers is good too!!!!

  72. n.... ....

    First time hearing this version, very nice, although I love the original more

  73. a.... k....

    amazing

  74. a.... k....

    great music

  75. B.... M....

    Can anyone give me the instrumental of this sONG?, it's awesome thanks

  76. D.... ....

    GM needs to take this and many of his other rare tracks (Do you Really Want to Know, Crazy Man Dance, etc.) and put them into an album.

  77. i.... j....

    coolllllllllllllllllllll song

  78. M.... ....

    George Michael IS BEST FOREVER

  79. i.... ....

    'Older' was very original, deep, unique and emotional album - reminded me Madonna's 'Erotica' a little bit. "Strangest Thing" is my favorite Non-single track on this album - great lyrics, mysterious music.....real masterpiece

  80. D.... ....

    This tune might surprise you!

  81. a.... b....

    nice songs

  82. K.... ....

    @greatwhiterx8, but why didn't george put the version from older into disc 1?

  83. K.... ....

    @Hulk2k6, then you can buy Twenty-Five.

  84. M.... G....

    Simply one of the best,he played here at the Hollywood Bowl last year only 5 miles away from where I live and I never went to see him !! That mistake will "not" be made this year if he comes around....

  85. K.... ....

    @princess20892, Tell George Michael, that I hail to him, he is the best, he was the best, and he will always be the best. Many tried to copy him(maybe you can name some), but no one had success.

  86. K.... ....

    George Michael is THE Legend. Rock, Pop, Soul, Dance, he's so versatile.

  87. H.... ....

    I have this but my whole second CD is fucked beyond belief. From about Track #9 (This) Onwards, It keeps skipping.

  88. S.... �....

    soulful

  89. J.... S....

    The Strangest Thing is that George Michael is so Talented its a Gift............And he is sharing it with us

  90. 6.... ....

    Enigmatic and Erotic.and undoubtably best,you just cant listen it once,but over and over again.

  91. c.... s....

    cryn'at the discotheque..:)
    dance and melancholic...i love you michael.

  92. A.... M....

    Still love driving with the top down and cruising with this song, just empowers you with the suaveness to hook up gals.

    G.M. THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!

  93. A.... M....

    I guess its to be in sync with the theme of the compi.
    Ladies and gentlemen consists of disc 1 "for the soul" and disc 2 "for the feet"
    This song is featured in disc 2.
    Giving it a more defined line of which style of music

    One more song would've made this the perfect compi.
    "heaven help me"
    Deon Astus feat GM

  94. D.... ....

    How come they didn't put this on the later (maybe earlier) version of the GM's greatest hits?

  95. a.... a....

    Fuck who say Goereg Micheal Aintttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt The
    bestttttttt
