I despise George Michael to no end!  But....I love "Careless Whisper" and always will.  It's a great song.  I don't think even people who call it one of their favorites realize what a great song it is.

Whatever became of Andrew Ridgley?  I lost track of him after "Son of Albert."  Not that anybody remembers "Son of Albert"!

As found in the bargain bins eh, AV...?!! Not an earth-shattering seller...

Andy was last heard of living either in Devon or Cornwall in the UK with one half of long-forgotten 80s girlie duo Pepsi & Shirlie (possibly Pepsi...)

And probably needs never to work again as he copped 50% of the composer credits of 'Careless Whisper', which should keep him alive for a while...!!

Not sure. It was bought used at either the indoor market in Stevenage, Herts., or at some other dodgy shop there. Cheap.

Rush tells me that either Shirley or Pepsi died at some point. Do you know anything about this? Also, didn't Andy race cars?

Not come across any news about either being dead, but would Rush be thinking about Mel & Kim, another Brit girlie duo from the 80s - sadly, Mel Appleby succumbed to cancer in 1990...

You're quite correct that Andy did race cars for a while (I couldn't tell you what type or class...), and he was also into surfing (which is why he went to live in Devon/Cornwall - our surfing areas)...obviously a guy with way too much time on his hands...!!

And whilst on my travels I find that Pepsi (it was Pepsi...) has now re-located to New Zealand, so whether they broke up or she's taken him with her, I couldn't say...they're a bloody difficult pair to get information on...!!
