Faith (Deluxe Version) [Remastered] – George MichaelView More By George Michael Our ReviewFaith is one of the ‘80’s most durable pop albums and it made George Michael a solo star after his years with Wham! If an album can be said to define an era, Faith is a possible contender. This deluxe version of the album includes the original album, sounding remarkable and pristine, along with nine bonus cuts and seven videos. Tracks such as “Faith,” “Father Figure” and “I Want Your Sex” deserve to be seen as much as heard and the clean and censored versions of the latter tune’s videos make for an insight into the cultural changes always at work. The Shep Pettibone remix of “Hard Day,” instrumental tracks of “Faith” and “Kissing a Fool,” and the live takes of Stevie Wonder’s “I Believe (When I Fall In Love It Will Be Forever)” and Wonder’s “Love’s In Need Of Love Today” bring back the sound of the ‘80s in perfect detail, with soft reverb and glossy keyboards meeting up with the dense rhythmic kick of the album..

Every song is great and the deluxe version adds terrific remixes and videos. I was absolutley blown away the first time I heard the album (yes, I bought the vinyl version over 25 years ago) and I am still thoroughly im A rare classic (5 stars) There's so few albums which are truly great from start to finish. My collection is littered with albums with two or three great tracks, a couple good ones and the rest, filler. Every here and there is an album you can listen to from start to finish and it's like each song is better than the one which preceded it. Faith is one such album. Not long ago this album jumped out of my record collection, and I was amazed. The progression of styles f BiographyBorn: June 25, 1963 in East Finchley, London, EnglandGenre: Pop Years Active: '80s, '90s, '00s, '10s George Michael was the biggest British pop star of the 1980s, spinning a series of infectiously catchy pop singles into global stardom that saw him sell over 100 million albums worldwide.
