December 82 : George and Andy enjoyed their first U.K hit with Young Guns (Go For It).
December 84 : in a space of two years, the boys from Wham! became international pop stars - two albums, 8 U.K top five singles, and a number one song in the U.S.A .
Then it was time to travel the world and show what they can do on stage. Europe, Japan, Australia, U.S.A and China. 39 dates. The Big Tour was a complete sell-out.
"I think we're the most entertaining pop act on the road at the moment", said George. "I saw Duran Duran, Culture Club, and Spandau Ballet last year, and I think the people who see our gigs go away having a better time".
