I thought George Michael was in Wham!?

Isn't that a bit like saying, for instance, Take That featuring Gary Barlow, or The View featuring Kyle Falconer?

According to that site, 4th March 1985:

UK: You Spin Me Round (Like A Record) - Dead Or Alive
US: Can't Fight This Feeling - Reo Speedwagon
Oz: I Want To Know What Love Is - Foreigner

Which to me seems wrong as my parents bought the UK number one single the day me and each of my siblings were born and none of the dates match up with the correct records.:confused:

I've never heard any of them.

I feel so bloody old because I remember the tracks that were quoted in above posts by guys who were born in the eighties/nineties. Please nobody say Oasis!:grr:
