George Michael’s Estate Gives Green Light To Taylor Swift
The estate of the late singer George Michael said they were delighted when Taylor Swift approached them about using an interpolation of Michael’s “Father Figure” into a brand new song on her new album The Life of a Showgirl, which is out now.
“When we heard the track we had no hesitation in agreeing to this association between two great artists and we know George would have felt the same,” the statement read.
