The Cover to Cover tour was the second solo concert tour by English singer-songwriter George Michael.[1] The tour spanned 9 months between January and October 1991, comprising 29 shows across the United Kingdom, Brazil, Japan, Canada and the United States.[1]
A cover version of "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me", a 1974 song by Elton John, recorded during the tour, was released in November 1991, and became a massive hit on both sides of the Atlantic. Michael and John had performed the song together at the Live Aid concert in 1985, and again at Michael's concert at Wembley Arena on 23 March 1991, where the duet was recorded. In 1993, live performances of "Killer", "Papa Was a Rollin' Stone" and "Calling You" from 22 March 1991 at Wembley Arena formed part of the Five Live EP which again topped the UK Singles Chart. His next tour happened only 15 years later.[2]
