Pop Song of the Week: “Wham Rap (Enjoy What You Do)”

Ah! Memories.

It seems like yesterday when I was hearing this song play in a Canadian nightclub back in 1987. For that matter, I still remember hearing this song play on my car's tape player a few years later the day one of my younger relatives accused me of listening to too much black music. (Of course, it never occurred to him how odd it was to make an accusation like that to someone who was listening to one of the first examples of blue-eyed rap.)

I've always enjoyed the song and I hope you enjoy it too. As long as you don't mistake the song's philosophy for my own, of course.

With Apologies to Wham! UK

Last Christmas I gave you my heart…

And then…

1. You put it in the recycling bin.
2. You put it in your blender and pushed “puree.”
3. You took it back to the store for a refund.
4. You gave it away to a homeless person.
5. You gave me yours too.
