Not one of his best songs, but still pretty good.

Made #2 on Billboard with more sales than airplay.

The song Casey refused to say when it charted He mentioned the song's title on his America's Top 10 TV show when it went top 10 in 1987; BUT he didn't show any video clips of it. "I Want Your Sex" was banned from many stations across the country. Here in Phoenix, it was heavily played on the 2 CHR stations (KZZP and Y95), but was refused airplay on the more adult-leaning CHR station (KKFR) at the time. Funny how mild that song seems now compared to much of the current rap trash with lyrics even worse than George Michael ever sung.

The song Casey refused to say when it charted Just like when Shadoe Stevens refused to give the title to "Me So Horny". Anyhow, I loved it because it was so sleazy!

"I Want Your Love"
To anyone who has ever heard this version, I'm curious as to what this may have sounded like. Does anyone have an accurate memory as to how this version sounded?

just listened to a Casey Kasem show from July 1987. I was surprised he didn't mention its name. How the times have changed! I love the 3 parts.

Love it. It's very Prince to me, in several ways. In particular I love the "I swear I won't tease you..." section and "What's your definition of dirty, baby?"

This was such a fun song to hear on the radio at the time, even if it was the "your love" version. He was killing the game musically and on the charts and was making big statements - even if they weren't totally understood or even acknowledged by many at the time.
Even if the lyrics were about something totally different, his voice on that production just sounds like a smash.
This may fight for a spot in my overall George top 10 - probably wouldn't quite make it. But I think it's great.

Funny that this was shocking at the time and radios refused to play it, but nowadays a song like Rockstar can get to #4 on CHR.

This song definitely classifies as the ultimate guilty pleasure. That's all I can say about it.

Horrible! I prefer many other George Michael/Wham singles over this sleazy song.
