In the '85 single version, he elides some of his verse endings. This is a great file to have--thanks! You can really hear Morten's vocals much clearer in the 1984 version.

Yes, David & Mick are gay to a supersonic degree in the DITS video. Lots of people could see it even when it first aired. Plus it's just lazy.

George Michael still performs Freedom in concert so it must be one of the few Wham! tracks that don't make him want to meet strangers in a public bathroom. Oh, snap !

Kool (and the gang, too) had really lost their funk by the time Cherish dropped. The less said the better.

Those old Whitney Houston clips are just proof of how talented she is and that she's very likely to make a nice comeback. As long as she stays away from those Tyler Perry movies.

The whole instrumental break in the middle is terrible. That break alone probably stopped this version from taking off, with or without the video.
