Wham appeared on Saturday Superstore to promote the new single Club Tropicana. The official video was played just before this interview, but has had to be removed due to copyright.
Nice to see Andrew, probably we would not have had George Michael, without Andrew, happy to see it worked out well for both of them. So, sorry we lost George Michael. Andrew, I thank you, for putting your arm up, when the teacher ask. His friendship you will just carry in your ❤️ heart Always.
Thank you SO much for this video. Never seen before this appearance, didn't even know they were invited just before the start of their first tour. So, logically, this was on Saturday 8 October 1983.
@@tomsenick2033 Yea sure but Mike Read, the presenter and the Wham boys, were just being jovial. Woke has killed it. You have good musical taste by the way. I'm not sure where you're from though.
Yes, thank you for this video. It was I who won the giant banana and Superted goodies. I wasn’t watching at the time so only heard about second hand! Of course I also got all the prizes though 😊
I liked AR too, but later I questioned why because George was so much nicer. Looking at this video though, AR really was better looking during this period. Whilst GM wasn't. I'm glad I wasn't blind as I thought I was.
George wanted to meet Diana Ross at 07:40. He did better than that in 1985, by singing live with Diana as well as Aretha and Stevie at the Apollo theatre.
I didn’t think he was bombastic at all. I know bombastic side eye is a term but bombastic is not a compliment. I’m afraid because of the way Boy George was, he didn’t make many friends. He always had beef with someone and spent his time wrongly trying to out gay stars because he himself was comfortable with being gay. He’s never admitted to being wrong in his behaviour and still thinks it was right to pull people out of the closet, despite any issues that would cause them at the time or their wish to stay closeted. In the 80’s being gay still wasn’t necessarily accepted especially with the A.I.D.S crisis. I don’t know your age but if you remember these times you’ll understand, plus having a Greek father and a mother with gay family that killed themselves he had no wish to come out. Boy George didn’t care about that. Fans were split into ‘camps’ so those who were into Boy George were against Wham! He spread the crap and they sucked it up. His wars of words with people went way back to the Blitz club and still to some extent go on today. He’s blunt. Too blunt. Back then there was absolutely no filter in the man at all.
@@NailHeavenAshford bombastic side eye means to express contempt or disapproval which is exactly why I used the term because I'm well aware of boy George's continued attempts to try and out george micheal in the past.
@@sshergs2166 Yes this is the show, but it is not in full, plus the video clips were cut and what is important here is the fact that they showed an alternative video for Wake me up before you go go with different footage and angles. Would be fantastic if you have it.
I notice Mike didn't answer the question "What does Dolce Viche" mean ! ( Probably because he didn't know ). but it actually translates as "This Sweet Life".
I mean even in the 80s it was considered racist I highly doubt George Michael of all people is going to say the N word on a children's saturday show hahahahaha
@@Evolutionator944the BBC banned Relax by Frankie Goes to Hollywood for sexual references, I highly doubt they would let someone use racial language on a kids show at 09:00am
It would have been George Michael even without Andy! Andy didn't sing, Andy didn't write the music! he just wants to come to the fore and George can't answer him!
