  When you remember that he was gay, lyrics like "sometimes love can be mistaken for a crime" makes more sense.

  Father Figure is a song about intimacy, protection, and power dynamics.<br>It&apos;s about wanting to become the most important person in someone&apos;s life, acting as a protector and a father figure to create a sacred sexual connection. The song balances romantic longing with themes of role-playing and domination, often noted for its mature, kinky undertones rather than an incestuous meaning.

  At age 62 watching this young man, analyze music from my generation is absolutely hilarious in a good way. I just never put that much thought into it. George Michael was just freaking gorgeous to look at and had a beautiful voice. &nbsp;I think it’s safe to say a lot of of us really didn’t care about the lyrics. We were just singing along and having a good time.❤❤. Absolutely loved your commentary though great video.

  “Father Figure” is generally understood as a song about deep devotion and protection, rather than anything inappropriate. George Michael often portrayed complex emotional dynamics in his lyrics. In this song, he uses the idea of being a “father figure” as a metaphor for offering care, guidance, and unconditional love to someone who may be emotionally vulnerable. It’s not intended to be taken literally. The emotional tone is about stepping into a protective role, not crossing any boundaries.

  He was a musician through and through, played many instruments and was just iconic. We miss him.

  George Michael&apos;s &quot;Father Figure&quot; (1987) explores a complex, intimate relationship where the narrator offers to be a protective, guiding, and devoted partner—a &quot;father figure&quot;—to someone looking for security. The song addresses themes of devoted love, sexual intimacy, and the yearning to replace parental figures with a committed lover, rather than referencing a literal parent.

  Not about being someone creepy. It&apos;s about love and protection.
