George Michael on Doing Something Remarkable

HE WANTS TO BE BIGGER THAN THE BEATLES?

“Not necessarily. I think I’ve got a certain amount of way to go before I’ve established myself to the degree of The Beatles – I still have to establish myself on a world-wide basis. And that’s an unstoppable ambition for me. I have to achieve that. I want to go down in history. I want to be an historical writer as opposed to someone who was just the most successful thing of the past four or five years.

I want to go down in history as someone who has done something remarkable and I think I’ve done quite a lot that’s remarkable already, but I want to take it that much further.
