I have to tell you New York I don't know what happened tonight But suddenly you are the best crowd on the tour I feel so unsure As I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor As the music dies, something in your eyes Calls to mind a silver screen and all its sad goodbyes I'm never gonna dance again Guilty feet have got no rhythm Though it's easy to pretend I know you're not a fool I should have known better than to cheat a friend And waste the chance that I'd been given So I'm never gonna dance again The way I danced with you, oh Time can never mend, come on The careless whispers of a good friend To the heart and mind, ignorance is kind There's no comfort in the truth, pain is all you'll find I'm never gonna dance again Guilty feet have got no rhythm Though it's easy to pretend I know you're not a fool I should have known better than to cheat a friend (shoulda known better, yeah) And waste the chance that I'd been given So I'm never gonna dance again The way I danced with you, oh Come on, New York You know you want to Tonight, the music seems so loud I wish that we could lose this crowd Maybe it's better this way We'd hurt each other with the things we want to say We could have been so good together We could have lived this dance forever But now, who's gonna dance with me? Please stay And I'm never gonna dance again Guilty feet have got no rhythm Though it's easy to pretend I know you're not a fool I should have known better than to cheat a friend And waste the chance that I'd been given So I'm never gonna dance again The way I danced with you, oh Okay sing for me, come on (Now that you're gone) now that you're gone (Now that you're gone) was what I did so wrong, so wrong That you had to leave me alone? Come on everyone This side Thank you so much, I had a fantastic night Thank's New York, see you soon

O solo de saxofone de “Careless Whisper” foi composto por George Michael ainda adolescente, mas ele gravou várias versões antes de encontrar o saxofonista Steve Gregory que ficou na gravação final.
A canção foi lançada como o segundo single do álbum “Make It Big” (1984) do Wham! e, apesar de ainda ser creditada ao duo, marcou a transição de George Michael para uma carreira solo.
“Careless Whisper” chegou ao topo das paradas no Reino Unido, nos Estados Unidos, na Austrália e em diversos outros países, tornando‑se um dos maiores sucessos comerciais da década.
A faixa vendeu mais de onze milhões de cópias mundialmente, com sete milhões desses vendidos apenas nos Estados Unidos, posicionando‑a entre as canções mais vendidas de todos os tempos.
