Faith

Faith was written and produced by George Michael. Released in 1987, it was the lead single from his debut solo album of the same name, Faith. The song reflects Michaels desire to create a work that would serve as a declaration of his musical style and identity, significantly diverging from his previous work with Wham!. Faith combines elements of rocknroll with an upbeat pop sound, and its iconic music video, featuring George Michael in a leather ... jacket and sunglasses, along with the catchy guitar riff, helped the song to achieve massive global success. The lyrics discuss the need to have faith in love and life amid uncertainties. See more [+]
