George Michael, probably best known for being in a group called Wham and they had great hits, three of my favorites are 'freedom', 'club tropicana' and 'Wake me up before you go go'. He then moved on and made a huge success of himself as a solo artist. I have to say that he has many great tunes, the pick of the bunch would have to be 'faith', 'don't let the sun go down on me' (with Elton John) and 'Careless Whisper'. Great performer. Only one word to describe it and that is 'GENIUS' . This guy has had his fair share of publicity but his music makes up for it, flawless. I recommend these CDS very highly - all his greatest hits on 2 CDs, have to say it doesn't get any better than that!!
CD 1 - for living
Everything she wants - Wham Wake me up before you go go - Wham Freedom - Wham Faith Too Funky Fastlove Freedom 90 Spinning the wheel Outside#As Freeek! Shoot the dog Amazing Flawless (go to the city) An easier affair
CD 2 - for loving
Careless Whisper Last christmas A different corner Father figure One more try Praying for time Heal the pain Don't let the sun go down on me Jesus to a child Older Round here You have been loved John and Elvis are dead This is not real love

OK, you have removed the totally unecessary reference to his sexuality, so I have upped my review from unhelpful to somewhat helpful. There are some excellent reviews on here, I would just suggest reading a few and seeing what excites and interests the community - that is what will earn you great ratings. Good luck.

Fair review, but I do think the word genius is overused nowadays.

A nice review, though perhaps further details about the songs would be nice! Not my type of music I dont think! xx

Advantages: Most of George's defining tracks present; well-packaged; good value Disadvantages: Some of George's key tracks are missing in favour of inferior choices.
