Wham! - Last Christmas

One of the problems of Paul Young's career after his triumphs of the 80's and the early 90's can be traced to Between Two Fires, which, ironically, doesn't betray the sonic hallmarks of the era as much as the preceding LPs. However, we can tell he had the best intention with the album, he wanted to branch out, but I fear he let his production be polished too much. Sadly, he didn't go the way of sophisti-pop, his voice would suit the genre perfectly, he sort of remained within his pop wheelhouse, which wouldn't be bad, had he not done that by removing several of his idiosyncratic elements. Paul Young's previous discs showed he reaches his best, when he includes the unusual in his tunes, though he slowly abandoned this approach later on.

Some albums that want to give us a hint for a sequel end up without one thanks to the usual shenanigans of record labels. Listen Without Prejudice Vol. 1 by George Michael remains a strong case for this, because the failure of the disc put the singer on the court against Sony Music, which he saw as unsupportive. However, I do get why they did have a problem, since the company wished for Faith 2, but George Michael always seemed more interested in breaking his image than supporting the latter, though we can claim Listen Without Prejudice Vol. 1 did fit his superstar status. Still, one has to admire his chutzpah by, for instance, basically mocking the whole MTV business on one song from there, yet he also ordered for an incredible video that became a staple of the channel.
