One More Try (George Michael song)

"One More Try" is a song recorded by English singer and songwriter George Michael from his debut solo album, Faith (1987).

A ballad at almost six minutes in length, the song lyrically explores a young man's hesitancy to enter/revisit a new relationship because he had been emotionally hurt so many times previously.

Tony Reed from Melody Maker wrote, "I've had enough of danger, George sings on this, the third single off Faith, and apparently quite the crowd pleaser on his current world tour.

Filmmaker Tony Scott directed the simple music video for the song, which features Michael singing alone in an empty room.

The video was filmed at the Carrington Hotel in New South Wales, Australia, which was empty and derelict at the time.

In 1999, American teen trio Divine released the song as the second single off their only album Fairy Tales.

In regards to her version of "One More Try", Knight said "Everyone knew who George Michael was, but this song is when he became the real thing in my mind.
