After Wham! disbanded the previous year, Michael’s first single as a solo artist would go on to become one of his most popular songs. Written, produced, and arranged by Michael himself, “Faith” was the top-selling single of the year in the United States, not to mention an absolute banger. Fun fact: The jukebox at the beginning of the music video is playing another Michael classic, “I Want Your Sex.”
