They are his best, but Older is also fantastic. Of course, there are also some great Wham! songs he needs to get...

I really hate that I can't find Older in stores and I don't want to get it from Amazon...

You should also check out His Two disc collection TWENTY FIVE. I'm not sure if it is available in the states. Did you get the US version of Ladies and Gentlemen... that has Monkey on it? I think the Euro version has the Mary J Blige duet "As".

You found that because he just released another GH package. Also a double CD or Triple CD Special Edition. Though I heard there are glaring omissions like I want your sex.

Me too. I think it's import...but for US region. Well Vigin Music said they'll have it on 2/6. It's near impossible to find on Amazon.

I think I should take advantage of the two disc TwentyFive cd I saw in FYE the other day before I won't be able to find it in stores anymore although I want the three disc edition if it's ever released...

2. Bad Boys and Young Guns are never going to be on anything titled "Best Of" biggrin

Of course, there was also a previous Wham! compilation (The Final) released in the UK. In America we got Songs from the Edge of Heaven instead.

Yes there is that, but the fans want something definitive. Those two songs in particular are fan favorites. They also want him to release the videos too.

I got this DVD at Christmas and it's really good.
At first I didn't care if there where Wham songs on it but after seeing them,well it brings back great memories and it's fun 2 watch them.
I also got the 2CD,prizes aren't that high 4 these collection,bought the CD & DVD 4 only 32 Euro.

However,Ladies & Gentlemen is a better collection,the tracklist is so good I always got the feeling it's sounds like a regular album...and a great one!
Don't 4get Older,it's my fav along with Faith.
