If we want George Michael to have more songs in the Top 10 of Smooth’s All Time Top 500, then we should focus on voting for the songs that did well in 2023.
It’s probably best to focus on the ten songs that did the best if we want George to have 3 or more songs in the Top 10. “Jesus to a Child” was close to being in the Top 10 last year. Possibly we should team up with the Elton John and Aretha Franklin fans to get more votes for the duets.
You can pick up to 10 George Michael songs in order of preference, choosing your number 1 song first. You can vote here.
Smooth’s All Time Top 500 will be counted down from Friday, May 3rd, at 10 a.m. to Monday, May 6th, at 7p.m.

The Wham! documentary lost to “20 Days in Mariupol” at the BAFTA awards.
Simon Halfon had the following to say about the loss:
The @BAFTA awards were a lot of fun last night ! WHAM! we are reliably informed came somewhere between 2nd and 5th in the #documentary category. I’m not sure, but I think that means we qualify for a Europe next year…special thanks to @NetflixUK for throwing the best party! pic.twitter.com/vE9Cm11pwJ

The New York Times has a new article on Chris Smith, the director of the recent Wham! documentary.
The following part of the article had me chuckling:
I assume you didn’t listen to Wham! in the ’80s? Where I was living in Michigan, kids were turning their noses up at Wham! I was a snide teenager, listening to the Cure, Depeche Mode, that sort of new wave thing.
The Story of ‘Wham!’ Comes From an Unlikely Source
Hey, there were plenty of us who didn’t turn up our noses at Wham in the 1980s! Two of us started a fan club in the mid-1980s and eventually started this website in the 1990s!
