Wham! is every great dj's secret weapon, just ask BLCK DMND and The Arctic Cat*. Perfect to put on when your set is getting too obscure or too bland. Here are two great re-edits to keep in your crate: Wham! - Last Christmas (Matthew Kyle Edit) - Slow burner, gets good at 2:37. Wham! - Everything She Wants (Morgan Geist Unreleased Edit) *Travel back in time to 2008.
Filed under: News , Video Max Nash, AFP/Getty Images As Spinner previously reported , singer George Michael has had quite a hellish winter after battling pneumonia in an Austrian hospital. Now, the Times of India reports that a Christian group prayed for the former WHAM frontman's demise. After being released from the hospital just before Christmas, the singer gave a news conference in front of his home looking [...]
Big Wham! track edited by one of the best editors around = a pretty sweet combo. Possibly up there with the most ironic of George's hits which makes it ever so better, the fact those guitar... DOWNLOAD/ STREAM http://www.feelmybicep.com
Desde que apareció "Foundations" tengo a Kate Nash en lo más alto de las mujeres de la música, donde se encuentra Adele y, si cuentan los difuntos, Amy Winehouse. Quizás sea demasiado, y hasta yo lo sé, pero no entiendo por qué le tomé tanto cariño (quizás porque nos mostró su corazón en ese disco). Su voz, eso sí no puede negarse, tiene una dulzura única. Junto a ella se unió Ryan Jarman , de The Cribs , para hacer una versión de la canción "Last Christmas" , creada originalmente por la agrupación Wham! [...]

"It was by [...]

We must have been in a hurry to put up our last post on this subject because we missed a whole bunch of holiday stinkers. Here is the rest of our list of the best of the worst Christmas songs of all-time: "Last Christmas" by Wham Released in 1984, shortly after we were introduced to George Michael and his white short shorts. "The Chipmunk Song" by Alvin and the Chipmunks [...]
Get your campest Christmas jumper on and the mulled wine out, cos today's festive tune is supplied by those 80s pop icons Wham! with (yep you've guessed it) Last Christmas. Everybody say awwww. WHAM! - Last Christmas on MUZU .

Every year, we ask our friend Josh from the esteemed music blog Indie Kid vs Dance Kid to give us his best of. This year he just gave us a list of videos but neglected to provide comment, so being the friend that I am, I will provide commentary (in italics) IKDK Best of Holiday Songs; Best served with Eggnog and Rum Saint Etienne and Tim Burgess - I Was Born On Christmas Day Saint Etienne is Josh's favorite band ever and [...]
Wham!'s George Michael learned long ago that a heart does not a good Christmas present make, and must be saved for someone special. But kids these days never listen to their elders, do they? (Just ask the cast of Glee .) And that's how Capitol Records' rising London duo Graffiti6 had to learn the same lesson the hard way, as the band's singer/songwriter half Jamie Scott covers "Last Christmas" in an appropriately melancholy acoustic rendition of the 1984 wintertime staple. Consider us sharing this video our early holiday gift to you. Catch it below. [...]
We're getting close to the final countdown, and we've hit number ten the MUZU.TV Christmas Video Chart. It's the all time classic that is Band Aid, with Feed The World. It features some eighties greats, such as Bono from U2 , George Michael from Wham , and Sting from The Police . The emotive video is something different from the normal festive madness that we are used to experiencing, highlighing the third world poverty and consequentially starvation of millions during the mid eighties. It's a moving number that certainly makes you [...]
