The Wham! collection The Final stands as the
most accurate compilation of the duo's hits,
even including the correct single versions
of hits that were not available on their
respective albums.
From the early bubblegum silliness of "Bad
Boys," "Wham! Rap," and "Young Guns" to the
singles that made them an international pop
phenomenon ("Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go,"
"Everything She Wants," "Careless Whisper,"
and "I'm Your Man"), the hits are all here.
"Everything She Wants" and "Freedom" are
included in their single versions which did
not appear on the multimillion-selling Make
It Big.
Also included is George Michael's first true
solo hit, "A Different Corner," which, along
with "Careless Whisper," hints at the later,
more sophisticated styles of music that
would further propel him into international
superstar status.
To round out the collection are other hits
including their last U.S. Top Ten, "The Edge
of Heaven," their yearly resurrected
Christmas single "Last Christmas," and the
overlooked "Where Did Your Heart Go." For
fans of their brief but very successful
reign at the top of the pop charts, this
hard-to-find collection packs the most bang
(or Wham!) for its buck. |
