London, Dec 26 (Inditop.com) English singer George Michael says he will always be in love with Christmas because the festive season helped him through his troubled childhood.

The “Faith” hitmaker, who grew up in north London, admits that his parents were always “busy” and “stressed” throughout his younger years and he spent much of his time feeling low, reports contactmusic.com.

“I have always loved Christmas because when I was young, both my parents used to work so hard and they always seemed quite stressed to me. But at Christmas everyone would calm down and be nice to each other for a few days and that used to make me feel very safe,” said Michael.

“I didn’t feel particularly secure as a child, which I think came from my parents being so busy and distracted. They were just trying to make a better life for all of us, I suppose,” he added.
