Wham! Manager Reveals Why George Michael Was ‘Slightly Upset’ By ‘Last Christmas’ Simon Napier-Bell is opening up about Wham’s iconic holiday track “Last Christmas.”  Napier-Bell recently remarked on how “extraordinary” it is that the track holds up today before revealing how the late singer-songwriter George Michael felt about the song.  “He was always slightly upset by the fact [that] he naggingly knew it was the best thing he ever wrote,” Napier-Bell said.   “George, above all, really wanted to be remembered as a great songwriter. And I think at the bottom of his mind… it was rather annoying that the song he got so perfect was a Christmas song.”
