Father figure - George Michael

'Father figure' was the third single from George Michael's debut album 'Faith'. Originally recorded as an uptempo dance track, whilst checking his mix of the song, Michael inadvertently turned off the snare track and realized he liked the song better without it.

The single reached number 2 on the Dutch Top 40, number 11 on the UK singles chart number 1 on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart. This limited edition double single was made in Australia and released as a tour souvenir.
