Wham! - A Ray of Sunshine (Live from The Tube 1983)

[@DuffElmer]

They should have released this as a single, it's brilliant.

[@sebastianwelcome2080]

l know l have never hread this before l thought it was released as a single

[@RocStarr913]

This recording was released as the B-side of the 12” vinyl release of the “Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go” single.

[@nicolettafourikis927]

I know it's a great song isn't it!!! George truly underestimated his own talent especially in his early days!!!

[@RocStarr913]

@@nicolettafourikis927 The album the original recording first was released on, Fantastic, already had four hit singles on it.

[@nicolettafourikis927]

@@RocStarr913 yeah & GM always ridiculed some of his early Wham hits. For a 1st album written by an 18 year old its bloody FANTASTIC!! Well deserving of its album title which Yog made fun of in his later years!!

[@michaelgourley80]

its only now - looking back to Wham you realise they were operating on a different frequency - the vibe, the energy,the image, the lyrics of their music....they were in the flow , vibrating Love and joy and it pervaded all those who adored them. This culminated on the 28th of June 1986 - in 56 years on this planet I cant recall a more heavenly, beautuful day - 80,000 people coming together on this frequency - I'll never forget that day . If only the world could tap into that energy field now.

I was there and agree with everything you say. An amazing day ❤️

[@triadafillos1]

I love their outfits, I love their early music, their fresh and sexy vibe, this is what I call 80's pop

[@tedgbird]

why does every wham song slap so hard i’m amazed

[@TheStepmonkey]

Because George Michael was a true genius

[@Lin-bt4pk]

And, he had Andrew to encourage him, tell him he could do it. So, he did!❤😂😢❤

[@michellereed5638]

I find it amazing that he was 19 or 20 years old here, depending on the time of year this was done in 83. He was born in June of 63. His ability to sing, use the microphone, and dance, and give a flawless performance as if he has been doing this for years....just flabbergasts me. It goes to show that he no doubt put in a lot of practice, and had a lot of natural talent and ability. Not every person who desires to be a performer, singer, song writer makes the right choice of dropping out of school to pursue a career. Clearly, GM chose the right path. It is a shame he became so vulnerable to depression and stress that he allowed himself to use harmful drugs. This is what definitely shortened his life. The marijuana and cocaine caused damage to his heart and kidneys, he wound up with Congestive heart failure. This is why he died so young at age 53. My own grandmother, who never did drugs, lived with congestive heart failure and stage four kidney failure for more than 20 years, lived to be 97! While she did smoke for some 35 years, she quit cold turkey one day, never went back to it. She never drank much except for an occasional glass of wine. She beat cancer six times! She loved music, sang, played piano and keyboards and did barbershop singing too. I miss her dearly. AS for me, I was born in December of 62--and love music, singing and also write songs. I focused my talents more in the gospel arena, singing at church. I really did not want fame and fortune. I was afraid of that, as what does it profit a person to gain the whole world, wind up forfeiting their soul? I miss GM RIP George!

[@TheStepmonkey]

Yea, I agree. All the vices he had caught up with him 😢😢 He deserved a longer life

[@emilyandersen8773]

I loved Wham. When I was 17 I cycled to technical college listening on my walkman so much fun still in 2024 takes me back to good times at 58 🎧🎼😎❤☀️🇦🇺💖

[@scooter2501]

every wham song sounds like a hit. even the non singles & B-sides. George just knew the magic sauce for creating brilliant pop.

[@EckonicMaster]

I always thought that the guitar Andrew played was for show until I saw the mini amp connected to his guitar on his back. That's brilliant. It makes sense for all the movement he makes for his performance.

[@TheStepmonkey]

Yea, he always played live❤

[@sebastianwelcome2080]

that's what l thought he was just miming in the edge of heaven from top of the pops 22

[@kandikane923]

I remembered when Wham first come on the scene in the early 80s and the short outfits. Those were good old days and last days of an era that produced real singers and music.❤️

[@Duncan038]

One of the best tracks from Fantastic! - I’ve loved this song since 1982 , what a great live version this is. Still miss you George :(

[@robertbarnes9796]

Wow. What a banger. So much to digest here. The band give it everything, particularly Deon Estus on bass, but the crowd just stand there!

We were so lucky to grow up in the 80s to see Wham on shows like the Tube and TOTPs. I was 16 in ‘83 and these songs punctuated our weekend discos. Bloody amazing time to be a teenager.

[@mavhhh]

I wasn’t aware this song existed. I was never skeptical though on seeing this title as well as the boys outfits, this song has the upbeat vibe of club Tropicana whilst being such a unique disco tune. Basically, it’s simply delicious!

[@jamesmc1016]

The 80's were another world of time and space. You are young briefly and then you turn around and you cannot believe how old you are and much of life is way behind you. When you are young you have no measure of time. The best way to let you know is to look at dogs and see they are puppies and in 10-12 years they are old and will soon die.
