The single was written and produced by George Michael and released in 1984 by the British duo of George Michael and Andrew Ridgeley, called Wham! and quickly became a top hit all-over, including the UK, the US, Australia, Canada and many other countries.

Featured in multiple films, it’s with this single that the duo changed their musical style and switched from a darker, more political approach to a lighter and happier way of expressing their musical talent.
