    after watching the Wham documentary and listening to the music again and hearing the story, I really feel so sorry for Andrew Ridgeley. He was the driving force in the beginning and really got them their moment and then let George shine and yet everyone ragged on him as just riding George's coat tail. He was pushed to the side for no reason other then George was becoming a star. That must have been difficult for him and then to see him through the years he was and has always been a class act. I wish his story was a bit different for how nice of a person he was and all that he did to get George to come out of his shell!

      The documentary shows that without him there wouldn't have been a George Michael and let's not forget that he is a co-writer to his biggest song. It was interesting to see how he was deemed a troublemaker in school - and he probably was as well - yet he volunteered to look after the shy new kid with a weird name. George's parents may have been right, as he wasn't the greatest influence, but he was the best friend their son could ever have.

      47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
      Acts 2:38
      38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
      That's how we nail our sins to cross.
      Romans 6:3-6
      3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?
      4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
      5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:
      6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.
      1 peter 1:15-16.
      15 But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation;
      16 Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.
      Hebrew 12:14. 14 Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:

      Luke 24:46-47 46 And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behooved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day:
      47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
      Acts 2:38
      38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
      That's how we nail our sins to cross.
      Romans 6:3-6
      3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?
      4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
      5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:
      6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.
      1 peter 1:15-16.
      15 But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation;
      16 Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.
      Hebrew 12:14. 14 Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:

      written, produced, arranged, played every instrument when recording it and sang it....People keep saying Andrew was the driving force because he pushed them to form the band - fine but without GM, that group wasn't going to anywhere and, thankfully, Andrew knew it. GM would have found another path to where he went if it hadn't been with Andrew. I saw an interview he did in 1990 and he said he was working in his dad's restaurant as a young teen and hear a song on the radio and was the first time he thought, when listening to the melody in the song that he would have gone a certain different way and that he felt he could have written it better. Where does everyone think this guy was going with our without Andrew? To be an accountant?
