Introducing Tuesday 2Play... Each Tuesday we will post 2 songs that are somehow related to one another... they could be 2 by the same artist, same compilation album, same soundtrack, artist's solo work vs their group work, or same central theme...
This week, I'm pulling a real ace out of my sleeve and starting with George Michael. He started out in the UK with That Other Guy (Andrew Ridgely) and formed WHAM! (my vinyl edition of this first album has them listed as WHAM! UK). Their first album was
FANTASTIC! That's not a review, that's the album title. Released originally in 1983 it was relatively unknown here in the US... they really didn't make it big until, well, they released
Make it Big in 1984.
So I present to you, a track from that first album, my personal Favorite...
Wham Rap! (enjoy what you do)Georgie went
solo soon after, and sometime in the early 90's, though I can't give you an exact date, released this gem of a song....
Too FunkyI can see the video in my head everytime I hear it...
That's your Tuesday 2Play this week, kids!
