George Michael

Ladies & Gentlemen-Best of George Michael

Awesome Amount of Hits

Review Score:

(8/10)
This double-disk George Michael collection definitely keeps the hits coming with a large amount of top 10 hits. Of those hits, seven #1 hits are present including "Careless Whisper," "Father Figure," "Faith," "One More Try," "Monkey," "I Knew You Were Waiting For Me", and "Praying For Time." I mainly bought this album for just a couple songs. The big one being "Careless Whisper" which still stands as my all-time favorite 80's ballad. I received a pleasent surprise though when I listened and realized just how many great songs George Michael had. "Jesus To A Child" is a gorgeous *but lengthy* ballad and Michael's vocals are stunning. "Kissing A Fool" *a #5 hit from his debut* is another stand-out and who can forget "Faith?" My big complaint is the version of "I Want Your Sex" that is included here. I much rather would've had Part 1. That's the reason for the 4 star rating. Also, I believe one disk would have been sufficent. The few filler tracks that are here could've been left off. But despite these complaints, the album is definitely worth it! Also, if you like late-80's music, I recommend greatest hits albums by Debbie Gibson, Roxette, and Expose.
