2. That would probably win hands down
So I left it out :evilgrin:

But you're always free to add suggestions.

I also like "A Different Corner" and a few other tracks from "Faith", but I left them off in favor of better-known songs...

4. none of the above CLUB TROPICANA
(because the drinks are free, fun and sunshine, they're enough for everyone, all that's missing is the sea, but don't worry...you can suntan).


Also in the video we get to see a young George Michael in a white speedo.

9. It's just too obvious a choice and would skew the poll.
It's disqualified due to disproportionate popularity.

If I did a poll on U2 songs, I would nix "With or Without You" for the same reason.

Doesn't mean I dislike the song, I just hate obvious choices.

10. There were so many good ones though, it's hard to choose!
I loved everything on the Edge of Heaven album. I had a roommate in college who owned ONE tape, and that was it. We heard endless George Michael. She would dance around and sing and she probably would have gone out of her mind if she ever met him. It's surprising she didn't burn me out on him entirely. But I have all good memories when I play those songs. Battlestations is a favorite, but that wasn't one of the choices. And of course, Careless Whisper is a classic. Good poll...thanks for the reminder :)

13. Then you should report to the "hater" section.
PM me when you run a poll on a band you like, and I'll make sure to crap all over it for you.

14. defensive aren't you
Just one person's opinion. No reason to have a heart attack over it. Obviously they made lots of money, so the masses are with you on this one.
FYI, I don't plan on posting any polls about bands.

16. Well, I do apologize for posting this in GD.
I just noticed and alerted the mods to move it.

I hate to sound snippy, but I just don't understand the mindset of chiming in with a negative comment on a positive thread about a band some people like.

There are many bands I don't like, and I just ignore threads that cheerlead them.

17. idle posting, nothing more
I look at polls to respond to and sometimes comment on them. I certainly didn't mean to cause anyone distress.

19. My sister used to love Wham
I remember that's all she would play on her boom box for the longest time. Then one day she discovered Def Leppard and Wham went the way of the floppy disk.
