More on George Michael
George Michael was born on June 25, 1963 he is a British pop singer and songwriter. He has sold an estimated 80 million records. Born Georgios Kyriacos Panayiotou in East Finchley, London, to a Greek Cypriot father and an English mother, Michael began his career by forming a band called The Executive together with his best friend Andrew Ridgeley, a fellow pupil at Bushey Meads School, though it did not survive for long.
Some of his biggest hit singles as a solo artist include the single "Faith" (taken from his debut album. Faith that not only became number one on both sides of the Atlantic but also resulted in stunning four number one singles in America) and many more. In 1986 he dueted with both Aretha Franklin and Jody Watley, the latter being the least well known and found on Fodies Album. The song was originally an anti-drug song. In 1989 he again sang backing vocals on a record called Heaven Help Me with longtime friend Deon Estuss. The song was written by both of them, and just missed out the top 40.
