George Michael was a British pop and R&B singer-songwriter who rose to fame in the 1980s as one half of Wham!. He achieved massive international success with his solo career, particularly with the album 'Faith.' He was known for his soulful voice, sharp songwriting, and willingness to explore different musical styles. This 1990 album found Michael moving away from the upbeat dance-pop of 'Faith' towards a more mature, introspective sound.
