An adult pop album on the theme of loss and rebirth.
Soulful and sophisticated ballads that touch the heart
Released in 1996, "Older" is a very introspective and mature work in George Michael's career. This album, made after he overcame the death of his lover, is filled with deep sadness and quiet hope. The representative songs "Jesus to a Child" and "Fastlove" were both huge hits. With its sophisticated arrangements and restrained vocals, this is a quietly moving album.
