In fact the 7″ version has never appeared on a Wham! CD since the 12″ version was on the first album Fantastic. It’s the 12″ version on The Final even though it’s only labelled as such on the vinyl version. If you don’t enjoy what you do just stop “Cos the benefit gang are going to pay”. The message was clear, working is for jerks. Wham Rap! was rather political in a very simplistic way. Not a hit in June 1982 when first released, but was subsequently re-released in January 1983 (after Young Guns (Go For It!)) when it reached no.8 in the charts. Nothing on the album is exactly obscure, but for your enjoyment we present a lively walkthrough of the tracks on the record, with the odd bit of trivia thrown in for good measure! Nice! Inside: A t-shirt, two gold vinyl LPs and more In addition to the standard 14-track CD, the forthcoming deluxe edition will include a DVD with 13 fully restored videos (one short of the audio selection, since the track Battlestations didn’t have a video).īack in 1986 Wham! were unwittingly early pioneers of the Super Deluxe Edition, since The Final came out as a limited edition (25,000!) box set, which included double gold LP, a calendar, a t-shirt, and a pencil and Wham! pad. The Final contains six UK no.1 hits including both George Michael solo singles ( Careless Whisper and A Different Corner). The pop duo of George Michael and Andrew Ridgely went out on a high 25 years ago, with this exceptional record that documents a short, but amazingly successful, career in pop.

Wham! are back on 28 November with a 2-disc anniversary edition of The Final, their farewell compilation album, from 1986.
