George Michael concert chronology |
In 1991, George Michael embarked on the "Cover to Cover Tour" in the United Kingdom, Brazil, Japan, Canada and the United States.
The tour was not a proper promotion for Listen Without Prejudice Vol. 1. Rather, it was more about Michael singing covers of his favourite songs. Among his favourites was "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me", a 1974 song by Elton John. Michael and John had performed the song together at the Live Aid concert in 1985, and again at Michael's concert at London's Wembley Arena on March 23, 1991, where the duet was recorded. The single was released at the end of 1991 and became a massive hit on both sides of the Atlantic.
