I didn’t realize I hadn’t done a George Michael Memes edition yet. He definitely deserved one, so I guess better late than never. From Wham to his solo work, George was one of the best. He has been missed! Here’s to you George and I am sorry, but some of these were too funny not to share although some are pretty tasteless.
The songs…
Hey Braveheart!! What is your favorite song?

Last year, I explored the year 1987 as the greatest year in music. It was a great year and had some huge top selling albums. Now , I am going to argue for 1983 as the greatest year in music. The greatest year in music is very subjective and each person will have a different year. Probably your high school years and/or the year you really started digging music. 1983 was the year that I started becoming massively obsessed with music.
The year had some of the biggest selling albums and a ton of music that influenced me, but what makes the year even better were the debut albums that came out in 1983. Some of the biggest names in music. Here are the albums and/or events that make 1983 the greatest year in music:
Michael Jackson:
We will start off with one of the biggest reasons 1983 might be the greatest year in music. That reason is Michael Jackson. His album, ‘Thriller’, actually came out on November 30, 1982. However, the impact of that album was truly felt in 1983. Believe it or not, ‘Thriller’, did not reach #1 until almost 3 months after its release. On February, 26, 1983, ‘Thriller’ was the #1 album in the country. It was the first of 37 weeks at #1. The album is the top selling album of all time at over 65 million copies. A number that is unheard of and might never be topped.

I can’t believe we lost another in 2016. What a brutal year for musicians. George Michael has passed away at only 53 years of age. From what I read, he died peacefully, but no cause of death was given.
He wasn’t much older than I am, which is scary. I grew up in the 80’s listening to his music and whether it was his solo work or his work with Wham, he had a huge impact in the 80’s and was an MTV mainstay during those years.
In his memory, I will pick “Last Christmas” since today is Christmas and “Faith” which is one of my favorites. Rest in Peace George!!
