First the Police now George and Andrew could start recording fresh material.

WHAM, bam, what's the plan? I'm hearing strange things surrounding a WHAM! reunion.

But I'm Your Man when it comes to keeping you in the know and I've been on the go go now for ages to work this one out.

The buzz in New York is that GEORGE MICHAEL and ANDREW RIDGELEY will secretly fly to the US this summer to start recording new material.

I also hear infamous proucer STEVE LILLYWHITE has been approached to work on the album too.

But all this has been denied by George's manager ANDY STEVENS.

Despite the confusion, my music insiders reckon the comeback could be bigger than TAKE THAT's.

And here's why...We've got our hands of some classic Wham videos.

Pepsi and Shirley being the other two.... who tried a solo (if you can call a duo 'solo'!) career but failed miserably. Can anyone remember "Waterfall"? Rolling Eyes

So what's Andy doing - tuning his air guitar and practising lip sync in readiness for the big adventure? Laughing

George Michael will be doing the singing, same as before, so I suppose Andy Ridgely will be standing around pretending to sing and play guitar and looking the prize p illock he always did!

I remember Waterfall - it was a hit for Prince's backing singers Wendy & Lisa. Pepsi & Shirley have 4 singles listed in Guinness - Heartache (no 2), Goodbye Stranger (no 9) and the slightly less successful Can't Give Me Love (no 50). After All Right Now peaked at 58 they called it a day!

Damn - so easy to get them mixed up.... still, you made my point about their so-successful 'solo' career! Smile

Thanks for putting me straight. Smile
