I'm sorry but this has always been my favorite George Michael song I think.

All Hot 100 Number 1 Hits Review #667
Much better than his last two number ones, but the lyrics are still so strange. The instrumental and vocals sound much better than most other songs I've heard from him though, so overall it's decent.

It's crazy how many different mixes this song has and yet everyone agrees the album mix is the weakest one. Because it is.

The song is about an actual monkey.
