The UK sleeve was designed by Peter Saville, with photography by Trevor Key. The song, according to Michael, had been done in one take without any drop-ins (overdubs) at all - production-wise, he noted that the two options to him were "either to be like Trevor Horn and go for stunning sounds on your own, or just get a great sound on each instrument and go for a live take". ![]() It was recorded within two days at Sarm West Studio 2 in London, with a live rhythm section. We used a LinnDrum because the drummer was late, and it was such a good track that we kept it. Usually, I write the record in my head I know what all the parts are going to be and I sing them to all our musicians. I'd done a demo at home that just had a bass line and a vocal on it. It's one of those tracks that gets rid of a lot of your own personal influences it reminds me of so many different records that I couldn't actually nail them down.

The song was ranked number 28 on VH1's 100 Greatest Songs of the '80s. The music video features Michael and Ridgeley wearing oversized message T-shirts ("CHOOSE LIFE") created by Katharine Hamnett, starting a craze covered in the 2002 VH1 series I Love the 80s. The single was certified platinum in the US, which at the time commemorated sales of over two million copies. It was written and produced by George Michael. It became their first UK and US number one hit.
