@198x Yeah it may have been 1984, but the sound continued to echo thru '85. and those two years blur together, there was so much happening and we were having so much fun.
@Blade686 Yeah, me, too. I'm a composer and I see the colors when I see some numbers or hear some harmonies or instrument. For me this song makes me see blue.
Despite Reagan having some short term memory loss thinking, he was all the way legit and I appreciate his honesty to us and letting us enjoy life as always.
I can't believe there was this bullshit hype for Obama, like some random dude is supposed to improve our lives. SOme kind of crap. Reagan had fun. He would like to think of us rather than a freakin Asian Market Obama cares about. Even though Im a Democrat, I support the Reagan era all the way.
I used to play this song on my walkman in the morning while waiting for my ex-girlfriend down the elevator by Yonban tower Yokosuka Naval Base Japan back in 1987. Missed those years. Missed the 80's!
Where are all the talented musicians today who could bring music back like this? Stop with the rap and hip hop and tough-act shit! And bring some unique vocals! Everyone sounds the same.
the song of the year for 1985. the quintessential sound of the mid 80s. and the original version with the long trumpet ending that really hammers the song home. the long ending was cut from most later versions of the song. it's not easy to find.
I wonder how many people found this searching for 'Braveheart'. That's a completely different gay. The bad kind. Antisemitic knob jockey. Ha ha ha you Jew hating foreskin muncher.
This is one of those songs that was stored DEEP in my memory from childhood and brings back an overwhelming flood of memories and emotion when you hear it again. Thank you for posting, amidst all of my adult stresses, it reminds me of just how good I had it as a kid!
I really wished I lived in the 80's.... :( Born in '88 , but the whole 80;s era fascinates me ! I'd happily switch freeview/ mobile/laptops etc etc to live through this decade !!
@lisa181988 you're absolutely right. we didn't much technology - just VCRs - but we had great music like this and an awful lot of fun. i was there and wouldn't trade it for the world.
@lisa181988 yer im the same lisa i was born in 89 but so wish i cud be in the 80's love all the music. same as u wud drop my blackberry ipod and laptop in exchange for a boombox and a wham tape :)
There's a singer songwriter who does a fantastic acoustic version of this song.. David Philips. Check out his channel by typing david philips freedom in the search box
@meika3412 so funny i too thought i would someday marry george from the age or nine to about fifteen i was sooo obsessed with him. i had over 300 gm pictures on my wall i mean it was bad. a few years ago my husband helped me take all those pictures down, but i kept them of course!!! im still a huge fan.
wow otra cancion que me gusta mucho de wham gracias george michael con tu voz fantastic ven a peru este año 2010 y canta las canciones de wham por favor
This is like my drug seriously I ALWAYS HAVE TO BLAST THIS SONG IN MY CAR OR MY BOYFRIENDS CAR lol. It's a must seriously I LOVE THIS SONG SOO MUCH!!!!!
Yes!! Been looking for this song since forever, heard it on the radio so many times... couldn't remember what it was called! Definitely their best song EVER!!!
wasnt around in the 80s at all. but my dad love 80s music and i have grown to like it. i saw human league a few years ago . but i am in love with wham's music and still like george michaels :) every xmas i play december song by george and last xmas by wham and this is my third favourite wham song 1- wake me up before you go go. 2- club tropicanna and 3- this :) but they never disapointed in their songs x
My favorite Wham song by far. It actually even sounds better if you slow it down by a half a key. Why can't music of today sound 1/100th as good as the 80's? When songs actually had melodies and were memorable.
tune fucking love it

Things I liked about 1985:
The greatest leader of the free world served "The People" in the White House.
I was a young whipper-snapper @ the time @ age 19.
Both of my parents were still alive.
The great music we had back then for those of us who lived through it.
...if only I could go back in time & do it all over!
Bravo, George & Andrew!
