Heal the Pain

"Heal the Pain" is a song written and performed by English singer-songwriter George Michael and released on Epic Records in February 1991.

A contemplative, acoustic guitar-based love song, it was the fourth of five UK singles taken from his second solo album, Listen Without Prejudice Vol.

He added that the song "with its close harmonies and neck-brushing acoustic guitars, is the Paul McCartney ballad the Fab One never wrote.

In 2005, it was announced that Michael would be recording a version of the track with Paul McCartney, in whose style the song was written.

Michael appeared on the Chris Evans show on BBC Radio 2 on 5 December 2005, and announced that he had recorded the song with McCartney "last week" but did not know what he was going to do with it yet.
