| George sang a duet with Ms.Dynamite at the Brit awards ceremony on Thursday, February 20, sending yet another anti-war message across the world ! |
| George didn't attend the event personally, his part of the song was pre-recorded and seen on a video screen but it didn't make his appearance less important or his message less powerful ! |
| As I understand, the part of the lyrics sang by Ms.Dynamite were re-written by her. George's part were changed by George himself. |

| George performed a cover of Don McLean's "The Grave" at the Graham Norton show ! That was of course another anti-war message ! Here are the lyrics and some screenshots of the performance! |
| THE GRAVE (written by Don McLean) Performed live by George Michael The grave that they darkened Had flowers gathered from the hillside In bright summer colours And the brown earth Bleached white at the edge Of his gravestone He's gone When the wars of our nation did beckon A man barely twenty Did answer the calling Proud of the trust That he placed in our nation He's gone. But eternity knows him And it knows what we've done And the rain fell like birds On the leaves of the flowers Leaving brown muddy clay Where the earth had been dry And deep in the trench He waited for hours As he held to his rifle And prayed not to die The silence of night Was shattered by fire It's guns and grenades Blasted sharp through the air One after another His comrades were slaughtered In a morgue of Marines Alone standing there He crouched ever lower ever lower With fear They can't let me die They can't let me die here I'll cover myself with the mud and the earth I'll cover myself I know I'm not brave The earth, the earth, the earth Is my grave When the wars of our nation did beckon A man barely twenty Did answer the calling Proud of the trust That he placed in our nation He's gone. |
