The Final

Product Information

A third number one in a row from Make It Big, Freedom was Wham! at the peak of their powers. There was a “Long Mix” 12″ version but the on The Final it is the standard mix albeit with a unique ‘outro’ when a trumpet comes in. A 10CD box set version also has all ten singles but expands the A and B-side offering to addremixes. So for example, with the ‘Wham Rap! (Enjoy What You Do?)’ CD, you get six versions of Wham!’s debut single and for 1985’s ‘I’m Your Man’ you get four variants. Some singles simply didn’t have any remixes, so ‘Wake Me Up Before You Go Go’ features just the single and the instrumental version.
