Sony Music is thrilled to present the soundtrack album to accompany the highly anticipated film, Last Christmas, co scripted by Emma Thompson and inspired by the music of George Michael and Wham! Last Christmas, the soundtrack album, features 3 fabulous Wham! songs including ‘Last Christmas’, ‘Everything She Wants’ as well as 12 George Michael solo tracks from throughout his career.

The film began when the acclaimed British film producer David Livingstone (best known for the BAFTA Award winning feature film Pride, and the Renee Zellweger feature, Judy) spoke of his love of Wham!’s iconic hit ‘Last Christmas’ to the Oscar winning actor, producer and screenwriter, Emma Thompson. That conversation sowed the seed of a winning idea: to make a film inspired by ‘Last Christmas’, and in Spring 2013, Emma Thompson visited George Michael who gave her his blessing.

After the 2017 film Freedom opened up the musical worlds of George Michael to Paul Feig, the director immersed himself in George’s entire catalogue and selected tracks to complement the film’s narrative. Highlights include the much loved hits, ‘Faith’, Fastlove ’ and ‘Freedom ' alongside such surprises as ‘Heal The Pain’, ‘Waiting For That Day’ and the MTV Unplugged version of ‘Praying For Time’ which George himself adored. As Paul Feig says, the result is “A love letter to George".
