Re:lounge: Celebrating The Hits of George Michael and Wham is not nearly as bad as you'd expect a knock-off version of George Michael covers to be. I discovered the album on the (awesome!) Spotify. Of particular note is the lovely (though not nearly as lovely as the original) and surprisingly disco-friendly take on "A Different Corner," one of the saddest and prettiest songs to come out of the 80s.

It's a day later and I'm still intrigued by this odd album...I can't find out who the singer is...it's clearly not George Michael or a voice as wonderful as his, but it's oddly fascinating and almost as heart-breaking on "A Different Corner." This isn't the case on all the covers, but certainly this one!
