I chose "Careless Whisper". :)

"Careless Whisper" was also my favorite, it was the least cheesy Wham! song and video.  Very mature, very classy.  But then again "Careless Whisper" was a George Michael solo, so I don't know if it counts without Andrew what's his face.  My favorite with the both of them is "Everything She Wants".

I like 'Wake me up before you go go'. It's catchy and danceable to. I second it with the lovely seasonal 'Last Christmas' followed by 'Edge of heaven'.

I chose Careless Whisper, but it really was a toss up w/ Last Christmas and Everything She Wants.

1.  Careless Whisper
2.  Everything She Wants
3.  Last Christmas

"Everything She Wants"...followed by "Careless Whisper".  :)

Other:  "Edge of Heaven" is my personal favorite, although "Everything She Wants" is still great after all these years.  :D

Careless Whisper followed by that ever cheesy song Wake me up before you go go.  ;D

Careless Whisper....great video too.  ALMOST made me believe that George was into women ::)

women ::)
;D

"Everything She Wants" (1985) is about all I can take of Wham!

"Careless Whisper"  ::)

"I'm never gonna dance again, guilty feet've got no rythm".  >:( :P ;D :D ::)

Other: Don't care for Wham! or George Michael.

I'm going for Wham Rap! Now the question is should I go for the original version or the later one??  ;D

I chose "Freedom". I like all their other hits almost equally though.

Ditto  :)

And "Last Christmas" is also a good song.

Careless Whisper

"Careless Whisper"

"Freedom" is the only thing from George Michael that I really liked.

My fav is Freedom.  I still hear Careless Whisper a few times a day at least, way overplayed.  The rest of them I never hear anymore.

We have 3 posts for "Freedom" but only 2 votes. Someone forgot to vote, me thinks. :D

Careless Whisper

Wham Rap - the long version. I reckon I could still sing along to the whole rap, word perfect.

On a pedantic note, "Careless Whisper" was George Michael solo, not Wham!.

Other: Club Tropicana.
But Careless Whisper is a close second.

I like them all.

wham is gay.

wham is gay.


Well, at least one half is.  :D

One quarter if you would like to include Pepsi and Shirley in the band as well.

Yep, here too maddog, but I understand from previous posts on this board it was marketed in the US as Wham!

As I thought Wham!'s music was up-chuck material, I too have voted for ""Careless Whisper""  :)

Although I couldn't stand the group (most obnoxious videos ever), Careless Whisper was the most tolerable.

Well, at least one half is.  :D

So what if he is. His still a good singer.

I had to go with "Careless Whisper" That song is sooooooooooooo great!!!!

Rio

I had to go with Freedom,  but isn't that a solo?

You may be thinkin' of "Freedom '90".

Probably because 'Freedom' is definitely on my girlfriend's 'The Final' CD.  :)

Careless Whisper

I know, that Freedom thing threw me off too.  George Michael did a solo song called Freedom that was a totally different song than the Wham song.  I dont like the solo song.

BATTLESTATIONS from Edge of Heaven

"Heartbeat" has always been my favorite.

Kryllith

Everything She Wants
Bad boys was good too

Tanya

You may be thinkin' of "Freedom '90".


No, there's a song by them call I Don't Want Your Freedom. Freedom 90 was another song when George Michael went solo.

Tanya

Other - "Young Guns (Go For It)"

"Careless Whisper" followed by "Everything She Wants"

I used to dislike Wham, but after I became a huge fan of 80s music in the mid-to-late 90s, I began to like their stuff, especially:

Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go
Everything She Wants
Careless Whisper, and:
Freedom

I'd go for this selection too

I voted for Everything She Wants.

I vote for "Wake Me Up Before I Go-Go":

Tanya

No it's just called "Freedom".

No it's just called "Freedom".

Hey, I'M THE REAL "..."! I could have told Tanya that Wham as a group had a song simply titled "Freedom" (although George does say "I don't want your freedom" in the chorus); which is a completely different song than George's early 90s hit. The latter is often referred to as "Freedom '90" so it can be distinguished from the song he had as a member of Wham.

To the person who posted under my name: get your own pseudonym. >:(

Sorry,I wasn't trying to be you. I just couldn't think of a name. And I apologize to Tanya. :( :-\\

I really like "Careless Whisper," and it's the ONLY Wham song I like!

My pick is 'other' and my choice is Young Guns (Go For It)

Am I the only one that preferred Andrew Ridgely to George Michael?  :D ;D

Sorry,I wasn't trying to be you. I just couldn't think of a name. And I apologize to Tanya. :( :-\\


I'm trying to figure out what you did. What did you do to have to apologize to me?

Tanya

Tanya

Lynn (who originally posted under my name) corrected you when she told you what the name of a song was. You said it was "I don't want your freedom" and then she corrected you, saying it was just called "Freedom." I think she was apologizing for correcting you.

Wham!'s Fantastic album is my favourite album of the 80's, so therefore, I vote for their 1983 hit "Club Fantastic Megamix".  It was their 5th hit in the UK, and was a collection of tracks from the Fantastic album all rolled into one :)

Wham Rap 8)

From the given list:

Careless Whisper

But wasn't it a solo hit for GM?

I haven't read through the entiirity of the thread but 'Careless Whisper' is a George Michael solo song. He did, however, relsease it whilst Wham were still together which is what confuses some people! Anyway...I'll shut up now!

I voted for 'Freedom' - I love that song - and it was also the number 1 single on the day I was born :)

'Freedom' by WHAM! I saw the video clip they were playing acoustic guitars. As to 'Careless Whisper' by GM not WHAM! The video clip showed that clearly.  :)   

From the given list:

Careless Whisper

But wasn't it a solo hit for GM?


It was George's debut solo hit yes.  I always found that weird, as the song was co-written by Ridgley

My chose is clearly EVERYTHING SHE WANTS.
It's one of my all-time favorites. It's so....versatile and effective.

Can't really handle Wham! anymore.
Nope, I just can't.

"Everything She Wants" is probably my favorite.

"Carless Whisper" is their best, it's their most mature song, but that was a George Michael solo.


I don't think their songs have aged very well, there is a certain cheesiness to a lot of it looking back on it.





EDIT:  I already answered this thread over a year ago!!  Interesting I had the same answers.

"Careless Whisper" even though it was George Michael solo, not Wham!

"Careless Whisper" even though it was George Michael solo, not Wham!It was?

Isn't that on Wham!'s Make It Big?

I heard George Michael and Elton John are getting married to each other. :D

It was?

Isn't that on Wham!'s Make It Big?


As a single release in the UK, it was George's first solo hit.  In North America, it was credited as "Wham! featuring George Michael"

My favorite Wham! song is "A Different Corner" from the Edge of Heaven album.

Interesting that 'Wake Me Up' has polled very little from us 80's fanatics, yet this is always the standard Wham! track you hear played on local radio stations or retro bars.....

I've always felt they did better tracks than 'Wake Me Up' too, and I voted for 'Freedom'.
