I read this book to learn more about George Michael, If the content is valid then it was intersting indeed. I have since read comments from George Michael that said the stuff in Bare was all crap. In any case, I found it enjoyable reading. I adore his music, so reading about the early years was fun. Andy and his antics, his laziness, and the fact that without him none of it would have happened. Lazy, and Andy used in passages numerous times. I found that so funny. The oversexed Mr. Michael nowadays, and the charming young man of yesterday. Both irrisistable. I loved this book.

I've been a fan for more than 15 years, and only recently got a copy of BARE. Eventhough I have several interviews etc. I still found that I gained so much more understanding after reading BARE. The book is written in a easy-to-read manner and includes a lot of sections by other people. The pics are cool too.

After what happenend last year this book seems pointless but it is a good read, and on ocasion brings tears to my eyes, if your a George fan buy it, but if only fairly interested wait till a more up to date one, which is well over due ...

I liked Bare very much, when I have read it last year. You might say, "It is a bit late to read it, considering that there are other, more recent books available. But, I love it, because it shows that GM really has not changed much, despite all the attention and sucees that he enjoys (and money, do not forget the money, too). He would have been my favorite musician, no matter what he was like in real life, because I believe that art should only be judged for what it is. However, it is comforting to know that he is also a decent and lovely person. Thanks, YOG!

If you are interested in learning more about George Michael and the way he thinks buy this book. It was really an insight to the man himself. Maybe if more people would read this book they would see that he has personnal issues of his own which make him the person he is today.
Would recommend this book

A great read for any George Michael fan.
It`s a great insite into his life, love & friendships ( and quarrels with record companies ) lol.
Like many biographies tho its typicaly repetative. Iv`e read three of his biographies and found them all covering the same topics - Nothing knew to discover about him & his life.
Overall tho if you have not read any of the others, then this will make a enjoyable & eyeopening read
