Michael not michaels

[@oldermusiclover]

loved his bass player too

[@VanceKauffman]

R.I.P George Michael gone but never forgotten!

[@snapdragon8888]

George Michael had the best pop voice ever.

[@ITzL3ACH]

George Michael>Michael Jackson

[@russellcrawley2110]

YOU CAN NOT DENY THE GOOD VIBES THAT THIS SONG GIVES OFF!!

[@jimreid4367]

R.I.P George Michael , Wham is where he began , they had at least 10 UK hits before George went solo . Wham Rap , Youngs Guns , Freedom , I'm your man , Last Christmas , everything she wants , club tropicana , the edge of heaven , blue , and one of my all time favs Bad Boys .

[@betagombar9022]

Bad boys was George's least favourite Wham! song, he hated the video 😂

[@chantellecline6945]

Great reaction, George Micheal is amazing and had an amazing voice. Loved this song when I was a kid and it is still a classic.

[@ThePinkDragon]

one of the happpist songs ever written

[@michaelakkerman407]

Can we talk about how we dressed back in the day... loved that neon!!!

[@sammieturner338]

And the painters cap!

[@wadesnider5218]

80’s music. Had great music. Talented artists who could ACTUALLY sing and play instruments.

[@ericbryant386]

Everything she wants is another jam

[@lorettarowell8486]

This is exactly the one and only George Michael, such a talented amazing artist and an even greater human being . I am glad that you are enjoying the music of George !!!!

[@musicmoviesmodelsmayhempod4872]

Such a timeless song and a great pop song by the iconic Wham!

[@lepoetress]

This STILL gets the party started!!

[@vegasbaby3669]

Real music will never die

[@Isleofskye]

In The 1980s my friend's Girlfriend worked for CBS Records and she said they had just signed up 2 Boys and they played at the record companies; Christmas Party and that was Wham and the rest is history. :) Many hits but when George Michael went solo he ruled the World with some of the most beautiful songs I have heard in my 66 years in England like "Jesus To A Child"/" Cowboys And Angels"/ "Kissing A Fool" etc.... George Michael R.I.P...

[@diddow.7457]

He was a genius. He did several duets with the biggest. Please try „If I told you that“ with Whitney Houston or „ I knew you were waiting“ with Aretha Franklin.

[@johnkendall6558]

Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me - with Elton

[@kimberlyepps3730]

He did a duet with Mary J Blige; a remake of ‘As’

[@prodigal71]

Man he just had a PHENOMENAL voice!!! RIP George

[@NDRP-uh6fs]

and a phenomenal song writer - one of kind 😥

[@HenSt-gz7qj]

and a great man to boot. :')

[@DLCSTexas]

George Michael was the genius of wham. If that was a group up there he put them there. The guy with the guitar and Michael were wham. But George was more than a triple threat. He did everything. He wrote the song played all the instruments including organ piano and synthesizers. George was just fire. Look at that head of hair. He just had good hair. And in the female society he was a sex symbol thru the 80’s and the 90’s.

[@JeanBodie]

Actually they both wrote this together. They were best friends from school

[@temp-x8518]

andrew and george both wrote this geroge took inspo from andrew after misspelling "wake me up before you go" on a sign that was meant for his dad to wake him up instead he spelled it "wake me up before before you go" andrew was involed in writting too and was pretty much the anchor for wham since he is the one who wanted to start a band with geroge and helped george come out his comfort zone and show how much potential he has. without andrew wham wouldn't be a thing

[@katstephenson8493]

Crying and smiling at the same time.. Rest easy Yog.. You're still loved...ALWAYS MEMORIES. 💗

[@rosemiller2990]

You have to check out his duet at the Apollo with Stevie Wonder. George was a massive fan of Stevie’s and he got the honor at the tender age of 21-22 to sing with Stevie on stage. Absolutely amazing performance.

[@jeffphillips9588]

Freedom-Wham! Is another banger I would love to see S&M react to. It’s off the same album as wake me up before you gogo and careless whisper.

[@andreadeamon6419]

Now look up his version of queen somebody to love. Talk about mind blown 🤯

[@Wiccat1]

Yes, that was George Michael before he started planning on going solo.

[@monikabeki6838]

Keep reacting to George Michael! One of the greatest in Europe and even though he wrote so many pop songs - they were so deep (of course also careless wisper ;-)) So for your own soul and heart listen to Spinning the wheel!!! One more try! Father figure! Just mentioning three songs that will touch you! So R.I.P. George Michael! Is still miss you and always will

[@ShawnandMel4Life]

Hey Monika, thank you so much for your feedback❤️

[@wboyd4330]

Praying for Time... Written 30 years ago but still relevant.

[@davidlightfoot348]

Great reaction! What a fun song. I've been watching several reactions to this song, and everyone gets hooked well before the first chorus. Great build up to the first chous, and it just keeps going.

[@kap6406]

Yes, this is the musical genius George Michael. Wrote, did the music and produced all the music. I could go into detail about George, but maybe read about him. He wrote "Careless Whisper" at 17 years old on a bus. When he went solo, one of his first songs was with Aretha, who he said was his idol, "I knew you were waiting for me". Aretha and Clive Davis finally got George to do it with her. He said he was just too scared. He was only 22 or 23 at the time. That song boosted Aretha's career, it went to number 1 in the US and UK and earned them the grammy for best duet. I think the year was 86. George has done duets with the best of them. Stevie, Aretha, Beyonce, Whitney (which was tremendous), Queen, Elton, Garth Brooks, etc. etc. etc. My favorite will always be the one with Mary J. Blige, "As" written by Stevie Wonder. There have always been great artists, but they were always looking for the great song, the great music and that great producer. The difference in George Michael was he did it all himself, wrote, produced, did the music for all his songs. Many of them are called "masterpieces". My daughter always listened to WHAM and introduced me to them. I'm 71 and still listen to George Michael along with James Ingram everyday. I love your reactions.

[@jeffphillips9588]

S and M- you guys are spot on. That is George Michael and the group is Wham! Wham! did both Careless whisper and wake me up before you gogo. Great reaction and good job recognizing it’s the same band!

[@eriksasfloyd]

Loved WHAM! and still adore george RIP X

[@karlsmith2570]

Hey Shawn and Mel, In case you're wondering about who the members of Wham are It's George Michael and Andrew Ridgley Another Wham song that you should definitely check out is the song "Careless Whisper"

[@vegasbaby3669]

Agreed

[@suzannejane1035]

They've already reacted to it and asked if it's the same singer. Yes, it's George Michael; first in the amazingly successful UK group Wham! who had No1 hits in the UK and US, then as a massive solo artist with hits such as Faith and Freedom 90. When he died in 2016, a massive part of pop died, too. He's still my idol. Miss you, George RIP xx

[@karlsmith2570]

@@suzannejane1035 I didn't realize that they'd already reacted to that, until you'd pointed this out

[@rolybling]

That voice was out of this world.

[@charlesshafer3072]

Just occurred to me...this song has something to teach any married couple having trouble. GO DANCING! Tango, Texas Two Step, Breakdancing, ballroom dancing. Have fun

[@lepoetress]

Everybody wanted that Choose Life shirt. They reissued it after he passed. This song gets up and moving.

[@horianawhata3662]

Yes it is George Michael and yes he did sing Careless Whispers....this was my song growing up....always left me feeling good and positive...thank you for reacting to this R.I.P. George Michael miss your voice...miss you...blessings and greetings from New Zealand....xxx

[@lynngreco6304]

Yes That's George Michael. Careless Whispers. His career started with WHAM and this song.

[@StaciaAmnaber]

You guys on an upload roll!!! Keep it coming!! I was 16 when this song came out! Best time to be a teen ever!

[@RB-uh1ss]

Love George ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@donaldpittman4303]

George Michael has a magnificent voice. The brother could sing

[@trinaortiz9195]

George Micheal, my favorite singer in the whole wide world! Love & miss you, George!

[@pamsaunders9841]

This is why the documentary and the 40 year celebration of WHAM! is so important. Gifting a new generation with the best music ever.

[@michaelakkerman407]

Freedom - is another amazing Wham song...

[@crimsonclover8314]

Thank you for this one! I've still got a crush on George Michael may he rest in peace. 💕

Me too ….. so Gorgeous ♥️

Eh, if you wanna see him you'll need a flashlight and a couple of shovels. 😏

[@sabinerobinson3198]

Wham, bham. Love this 😀 ❤

[@ajruther67]

You want to feel relaxed, check out Club Tropicana by Wham. It's from there first album. Wham Rap and Bad Boys is also from that album.

[@DocRealgood]

Just do George Michael and Elton John Live ' Don't let the sun go down on me! (Live) You'll love, You'll be sold, nuff said!

[@davidroyston1918]

George is THE BEST! If you see this, listen to his rendition of The Long and Winding Road...you will cry! It was in memory of Linda McCartney for a benefit in her honor.

[@diablo4166]

☆LONG LIVE THE 80'S☆

[@rosemiller2990]

Yes, George wrote and sang Careless Whisper at the age of 17!,

[@mac2920]

Gosh I loved the 80's-Wham was so good.

[@nikil3441]

This was my favorite song when I was 11 or 12 years old. If you haven't heard it or reacted to it yet, you should do How Will I Know? (1985) by Whitney Houston. I loved that song in my early teens.

[@StevenFleming-x7q]

Great Reaction, Can You Believe This Song is 40 Years old? Still So so Catchy

[@lepoetress]

Yes, it is him. He sang this and Careless Whisper. They had some great hits.

[@johneldridge8678]

Great reaction!!! You two are a lot of fun. That's why I subscribed!!!

[@Skinyfrog]

I'm So Upset That I've Gone Through This Much Of My Life Without This Song, Gotta Add It To The Playlist Now :)

[@fhdz505]

WHAM! Oh my.... those memories! Love my 80's. George Micheal, lead singer, ended up having a solo career. You should do a Reaction to Careless Whisper. RiP George Michael.

[@betagombar9022]

They is soooo much more to George 💜 My favourite George duet is 'This is not real love' were George dueted with Mutya Buena (formerly of the brilliant girl band Sugababes) This is not real love is so underrated and never got or gets the recognition it deserves. Give it a listen (no official video for the song)

[@robertvantol4744]

Love y’all’s energy and enthusiasm! ❤

[@cdfdesantis699]

Still can't believe he's gone. Too soon.

[@jimmyskinner7211]

such a feel good song

[@lindseyholl8821]

They were like 20 yrs old when they wrote, produced abd recorded this song by themselves! That in itself is pretty fucking amazing

[@fux3496]

80s baby here love anything 80s 90s

[@Topgooner01]

I reckon it's time for you guys to react to Wham singing "Club Tropicana"....gets you in the holiday mood, sorry, vacation mood!

[@KomKom-w7l]

I really love this song really much boy.

His name is George Michael. Lead singer of Wham.

Who,of course, became one of the greatest solo artists in the World...

[@jakestrain1505]

Love the green highlights in your hair, gorgeous

[@yvette9181]

Yes George Michael and Andrew Ridgley made up Wham! The band broke up and George went solo. Careless Whisper is a Wham! song featuring George Michael. He wrote the song when he was 16 years old.

[@brendasheehan2844]

Spot on Shawn he's the very same guy who did Careless Whisper love ur reactions guys 😊😊😊

[@renaem5259]

If you like fast ones, check out "Faith" and "I'm your Msn." He did duets with Arethea Franklin, Whitney Houstan, Elton John and Mary J Blige. The one with Whitney is a fast one. If you want a slow romantic song "you and I " done for Prince William and Kate.

[@robertmarsh2291]

This song is definitely built on the late-60s Motown formula.

[@mrchelsea7171]

I’m your man - Wham ….massive song! Yes it’s the same guy!

[@reneewauchula]

Yelp, he was young and funny. So much talent

[@mac2920]

Man I used to love Wham!

[@gafre2757]

You'll love "Club tropicana", and have a listen to "Wham Rap", young guns, bad boys, edge of heaven, everything she wants.

[@davidroseman4917]

All of those young girls were going crazy for him. All for naught

[@suzannejane1035]

Not really. George admitted he had his fair share of ladies, too, on the Wham! journey.

[@AngelDawn1982]

Gotta check out “FREEDOM ‘90” by George michael!!!

[@yeseniamoreralopez5968]

Que voz tan impecable tenía el George🛐

[@marlarogers9304]

I don't care if people agree or not, the 80's was THE most fun decade!! George Michael was such a talented man! Check out Kissing a Fool, my personal favorite. I love the short blooper reel at the end of the video!

[@slappyray62]

Yup dat be Jorge Miguel. 😂😂😂 Wham was a duo of George Michael & his boyhood best Andrew Ridgley. They had quite a bit of top songs in the early 80s. George went on to launch his huge solo career in the mid 80s. Great singing artist who left us too soon.

[@oldermusiclover]

sadly I found out that the lead singer and the wonderful bass player are both now deceased this is such a fun song

[@Topgooner01]

Yep, the same guy on Careless Whisper!

[@lindachambers3166]

Gotta say, Mel, love your hair!

[@GinaGeeILuvu]

This was Whams first big hit in the U.S., they had songs before but this one put them on the map! George Michaels and Andrew Ridgeley were the duo that made up Wham! Careless Whisper was actually a Wham hit although George Michael had a huge solo career with many many hits!❤❤

[@Kathy-up9si]

I love you guys. You always make me smile

[@renaem5259]

this is the guy from careless whisper. He wrote this song.

[@fortworth450]

yes it is

[@sheayankee]

Yes, you guys are absolutely correct. George Michael sang "Careless Whispers". Check out "Last Christmas", a cool George Michael Christmas song. Love you guys. Enjoy :)

[@CMG1796]

WHAM just like that new fans all I can say people I lesson to all kinds I mucus don’t knock it til you try it ❤😊

[@dennisvanscoy4040]

As parents who delight in children, you have to react to the song "Baby Sittin' Boogie" by Buzz Clifford. I think it was a Rock & Roll hit from 1960 or 1961. You will love it!

[@rogershrader7518]

Big thumbs up

[@shayla-lee]

Yes, that was/is George Michael. Careless Whisper was on this same album, but was released as a George Michael solo single. In N. America - it was released as "Wham! featuring George Michael". Too long of story to explain why. lol "Wham!" was a duo, but it was basically ALL George Michael. The other guy Andrew Ridgley didn't do shit! He claims to have been the guitar player (barely) and back up vocals, but if you heard him sing, HELL NO he was sooo not any kind of back up! lol He was essentially just there for the image and b/c of GM's shyness and insecurities at that time, he was uncomfortable being a solo artist and wanted his BFF Andrew with him. George Michael wrote all the songs, mostly composed, produced and arranged this entire album. Anyway. You need to check out these "Wham!" songs. "Everything She Wants" kzbin.info/www/bejne/j5fCfaqba9Vgeck&ab_channel=WhamVEVO "Battlestations" (GM experimenting with beats & sounds and being a sick-ass producer - very 1985 Prince-sounding) kzbin.info/www/bejne/npKViKFrZrxrr5Y&ab_channel=WhamVEVO "I'm Your Man" kzbin.info/www/bejne/bIiTlWyugs2NmNE&ab_channel=WhamVEVO The ICONIC "Last Christmas" kzbin.info/www/bejne/e2nKnnSIfNuDoqs&ab_channel=WhamVEVO AND! For extra fun: Back from their first album when they were 18 years: "Wham! Rap. " Yes! George Michael rapped! kzbin.info/www/bejne/eKTceYSdnsqgbsU&ab_channel=WhamVEVO And more rapping: lol "Young Guns" kzbin.info/www/bejne/pqLGgoeVeN6ZfpY&ab_channel=Wham%21-Topic ENJOY!

[@jjnyc4610]

You must do Every She Wants by Wham also Oh about the title wake me up before you go go… I watched a short documentary given by Andrew Ridgeley and he said when he was in jr or high school he would leave a note for his mother who would leave early for work and he wrote “wake me up before you go..go” that’s it☺️simple and sweet

[@barryfreeman2914]

This was such a great song especially when you realize George wrote this in 20 minutes on a train ride.

[@Topgooner01]

You must do "Club Tropicana" by Wham you'll love it, especially Mel!

[@mariannecharlottejensen1200]

Love to you to beautiful people yes whe whe haw been faaaaaans of wham and rhen became faaaaaans of george michael but whe never forget george michael and andrew ridgeley
