In 1991 George Michael embarked in the "Cover to Cover Tour" in United Kingdom, Brazil, Japan, Canada and the United States.

The tour was not a proper promotion for Listen Without Prejudice Vol. 1. Rather, it was more about George singing his favourite cover songs. Among his favourites was "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me" a 1974 song by Elton John; George and Elton had performed the song together at the Live Aid concert in 1985, and again on George's concert at London's Wembley Arena on March 25, 1991, where the duet was recorded. The single was released at the end of 1991 and became a massive hit on both sides of the Atlantic.
