Two nervous boys had grown up to become the absolute pride of England. They had two incredible voices. They had two completely different ways of being great.

George was very different. He had beautiful strength. He offered pure honesty without any disguise. He did not command the huge crowd. He completely understood them. George made you feel. They had different energies. But they shared the exact same courage.
