Mariah Carey And Gary Barlow Lead Heartfelt Tributes To George Michael

Angels In Chains is Geri’s first solo track in 12 years and was produced by Chris Porter, who had worked with Michael for more than 30 years.

She performed her first solo gig in a decade on the eve of his birthday at London’s Heaven nightclub.

Horner said of the song: ‘When I first heard the sad news of his passing, I was nine months pregnant with my son Monty and I was full of emotions. I didn’t know quite what to do with my feelings so I put it in a song, which became Angels In Chains.’

 

Angels In Chains – the lyrics

Every young gun has their fun
The brightest star burns half as long
Who knows why the good die young?
I wonder where you’ve gone
Could’ve been gone tomorrow
Could’ve walk through the sorrow

But you left us singing
Heal the pain (ooh)
We’re all angels in chains (ooh)
Looking back, the aftermath
Still burning from the pain
We say goodbye
It’s time to heal the pain

George, your faith will never end
(You gotta have faith)
Father figure, brother, friend
(Understand me)
Little boy dying to belong
I wonder where you’ve gone
The world can be cold and cruel
A gentleman, but not a fool

You left us singing
Heal the pain (ooh)
We’re all angels in chains (ooh)
Looking back, the aftermath
Still burning from the pain
We say goodbye
To a star tonight
It’s time to heal

Something you came to teach us
This love will always reach us in the end

Heal the pain (heal the pain)
We’re all angels in chains (angels in chains)
You’re not to blame (heal the pain)
We’re all angels in chains (ooh)
Looking back, the fun we had
It’s freedom that you gave (freedom)

Say goodbye
You’re a star tonight
It’s time to heal the pain
