Two songs about regret on losing someone.

Harry was one of Lennon's 70's drinking buddies.

Heard he turned up at the studio with a monster hangover. Then sang the released version of 'Without You' in one take!

Actually it was probably more like Harry turned up drunk to the studio. Then recorded his vocals in one take.

That is more rock star ish.

Thought Larry would be all over this supporting George.

He needs support as is 2-0 down.

Careless Whisper.  Classy 80s sound like True and Smooth Operator.

Whenever I hear Without You I always think of the TV movie of Porridge because it featured in that.

The future is bright at Everton FC  8)

At the moment prefer 'Without You'.

Probably because it wasn't around when I was young. So only started listening to it this week.

Careless Whisper was everywhere in 84 & hasn't really gone away.

Yes, of course, CW for the win. I genuinely believe it to be one of the greatest songs ever written.

Without You
George Michael is a bit too pop for me.  Not really a fan of Without You but it hits you.

Have refused to listen to Maria Carey's version.
