@poisonous_flowers_: #CapCut // Every Time You Go Away - Paul Young “Every Time You Go Away” was originally written and recorded in 1980 by Hall & Oates as “a kind of gospel/soul song”. Paul Young’s cover of the song went to #1 in the US (Hot 100 & Adult Contemporary charts) in the summer of 1985, and also hit #1 in Canada & reached the top 5 in Ireland, Norway and the UK. Young famously performed the song twice at the 1986 Prince’s Trust fundraiser, with Elton John on piano, Dire Straits' Mark Knoplfer, Level 42’s Mark King and Eric Clapton on guitar, and Phil Collins on drums. After performing it once, George Michael showed up and the two quickly determined which lyrics Michael was most confident with. Young then returned to the stage, with Michael, and the two performed “Every Time You Go Away” together.
