The Britpop band Wham!, which included George Michael and Andrew Ridgeley as its members, released “Last Christmas” in 1984. Two years later it was included on Music from the Edge of Heaven, the band’s final album. Upon its original release, the song reached number two on the British pop chart, eclipsed by the Band-Aid charity single “Do They Know It’s Christmas?” Eventually, “Last Christmas” became a holiday classic, and many years later it topped the British chart and reached the top three of the Billboard Hot 100.
