PRESS REVIEWS
Smash Hits. September, 1984
Ever since I gave Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go a less than rave review, Wham! have apparently been saying that I was 'out to get them'. Not true. As their past releases (and, indeed Careless Whisper) show Wham! have a tremendous spark of talent. I just don't think they're using it very well. With records like this weedy, uninspiring Motown-derived effort, I reckon they're aiming far too low. Take some risks, boys. You can afford to. Still, although this sounds like The Truth on a wet afternoon, it will undoubtedly be a hit. Such is life.
