George+michael

Though he made his initial mark on music history as half of the unctuous British duo Wham, George Michael wasted little time in proving himself more than just a pretty pop face. This comprehensive two-disc compilation documents the career of a man who was able to successfully meld pop, R&B and serious, introspective balladry without ever losing sight of the all-important groove and hook.

2012 CD Single from the British singer, songwriter and Pop icon. This Single includes two new songs from the hitmaker: the self-penned 'White Light' and a previously unreleased version of the Tim Buckley classic 'Song To The Siren'. Also included are two remixes of 'White Light'. This release comes 30 years after the release of 'Wham Rap', his debut single with Wham. George has personally connected to this lyric from the single White Light 'I am back…..I am back…..prouder than ever baby……louder than ever maybe..' The single also contains a brand new recording of "Song to the Siren", a beautiful previously unreleased cover of the classic song.

"Make It Big" is the second studio album from British pop duo Wham!, released in 1984. It was mostly recorded at Studio Miraval in Southern France to escape the press and enable George Michael to work peacefully and mixed at Good Earth Studios in London and Marcadet Studios in Paris. In comparison to their earlier work, the duo had more control over the album's production, as George Michael became the sole credited producer, a position he would subsequently hold on all future releases until the group split in 1986.
