Summary
ROCK & POP MUSIC. As the man whose voice and style came to define pop music in the eighties and beyond, George Michael will forever be remembered as one of the all-time greats of British music. With records such as 'Club Tropicana' and 'Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go', Wham! rapidly became one of Britain's most successful groups, with George Michael finding himself a teen heartthrob the world over. After Wham!'s split in 1986, George went solo and took his career to even greater heights, launching classics including 'Faith', 'Freedom', and duets such as 'Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me'. However, behind the success, he was still hiding his sexuality from the world and endured the tragedy of losing his boyfriend to AIDs in the early 1990s and, in later years, his drug use and arrests came to overshadow much of his career
