this is a very tough decision

wasn't there an earlier version of gm's "freedom"? with worse drums/production?

fucked if i know

n/a, Wednesday, 28 May 2008 16:26 (seventeen years ago)

pick between these two

n/a, Wednesday, 28 May 2008 16:26 (seventeen years ago)

i have danced to both of these at slumber parties = the nostalgia quotient is pretty much equal. (A++ would dance again)

i think i would rather hear someone else sing "freedom" though, so maybe that makes it a better song? "freedom 90" sounds like it could only be a george michael song.

either way you look at it, you can't go wrong with a george michael song about freedom.

Motown vs house

"Freedom" is about relationships; "Freedom '90" is a bildungsroman.

Eazy, Wednesday, 28 May 2008 17:30 (seventeen years ago)

maybe i'm making up that other version. anyway, '90 all the way.

Jordan, Wednesday, 28 May 2008 17:32 (seventeen years ago)

Both are great. The first "Freedom" has that great keyboard, rhythm guitar hook, and chorus, but so does the 1990 one.

Better lip sync.

Wham "Freedom" for me (their best, IMO), though 'Freedom 90' is probably my favorite George Michael solo.

Joe, Wednesday, 28 May 2008 20:23 (seventeen years ago)

absolutely cannot decide between these two

A very good single vs my favourite pop song of all time. Freedom '90 ftw

edwardo, Saturday, 31 May 2008 00:22 (seventeen years ago)

Wham, cause you know that I forgive you just this once, twice, forever, baby

one month passes...

Heard the latter one last night in a bar (in Podgorica!), and man, that is one triumph of a pop record. What struck me last night is that it's pretty damn perfect...and then the bridge comes in! (It looks like the road to heaven....>>>That's what you get for changing your mind...) It's a total bonus part: the song had already won the race, but that build-up of the bridge into the outro just kicks it into sublime territory.

one year passes...

While I love them both, Freedom 90 has sorta been my jam lately.

Aqua Backrat (ENBB), Tuesday, 4 May 2010 01:45 (fifteen years ago)

I don't like the productgion on the Wham track but I love teh song. Freedom 90 is great too but I woulda voted Wham.

Sherman Helmsley Teabag (Cattle Grind), Tuesday, 4 May 2010 03:22 (fifteen years ago)

thirteen years pass...

my heart says '84, my head says '90
