A British reporter investigated George Micheal and interviewed the girl it was about. George and her were friends in school and had a romantic relationship. He dated someone else behind her back and felt guilty. George actually ended the relationship. The ex never knew. He made a demo tape of the song and played it for her but she didn't know it was about his relationship with her. When she found out years later she said it made sense.
