This was the sixth and final single from Faith. It was the least successful single in both the US and the UK. However, it became the sixth Top 5 hit from the album in the US.
I love this song. Very simple and jazzy. Beautiful.

Despite this being the least successful track from the album, it was actually one of my faves from the album, right behind 'Father Figure' & 'One More Try'.

I remember being front row for his 25 Live concert here in Toronto. There was a couple next to us, and one guy's favourite GM song was "Kissing a Fool". He told me during the pre-show that did not expect George to sing it live, as it was kind of a forgotten hit (George did not play it on the European leg of the tour). He went crazy when George started singing it later in the show. It was a really nice moment, and one that I will always remember.

Not bad. It didn't seem to get as much recurrent play as the other singles from that album.

Love this, but much prefer Michael Buble's version. The reverb on GM's version is a little too much for me.

Everything about this album and the singles were flawless. This is my least fav ballad, but it's still tops.

It's not my style. I do love "Careless Whisper" though.

Got to number 6 on the Radio and Records Pop chart. My favorite from "Faith."

This is so great. One of his best vocals (among many).

Never really got into this song. It's the only song on the album that I don't really care that much for. I much prefer One More Try and Father Figure.

I wish Mariah had remade this instead of ONE MORE TRY.... Interesting. She's always praised "One More Try" and that song did fit with Mariah giving her marriage to Nick 'one more try' at that point, but "Kissing A Fool" would have actually been perfect. Lyrics like "when I could have been your star" (literal and figurative since Nick was a fan before he was her husband) and "covered me with kisses and lies" and "but I'll never find peace of mind while I listen to my heart" fit their marriage so well. And, yeah, the jazzy nature of the song would have fit in Mariah's voice well. |
