GTPlanet vs. Wham - Thread of the Year!

[GranTurismo916]

Am I really the only person having no trouble avoiding this?

I haven't even heard a cover yet...

*knocks on wood desk*

 

[Northstar]

Well....

Wham #1: My car wasn't working so I had to get a ride to work today, you can guess the rest.

Wham #2: Right when I walked into my work.

Wham #3: About half-way into my shift it came on again.

Wham #4: As if three was not enough, I heard it on the way home, just to seal the deal.

It was not a good day.

Top Gear is supposed to air on the 27th of this month.... Do you reckon they used Last Christmas in one of their clips? That would be hilarious if they did. A group of competitors wiped out in one evening

Good thing I don't watch Top Gear than. Though I am concerned about the Doctor Who Christmas special, which is called Last Christmas.

Also, I went to another brony meetup (aka hanging out in the food court of a big mall for a few hours) but still no Whamming. On my way home. I went to Walmart briefly for absolutely no reason. Nothing. They were playing Katy Perry at some point, but no Wham.

Top Wham! ?

 

[Pootis]

I just got Whammed in the car when my mother's friend was playing some Christmas songs on his phone.

No need to worry about getting Whammed anymore though.

 

[mister dog]

I actually like getting whammed; the 80's were nice musically but looking back it just feels a bit awkward knowing that all that time George was actually singing about another man.

 

[Ken]

the 80's were nice musically

They were? 💡

 

[MrUnknown]

I actually like getting whammed.

...

Who are you?!

 

[mister dog]

They were? 💡

Yes musicians still made an effort to make something original and they had the synthesizer to experiment with. Also it takes me back to my childhood so i might be a bit partial

...

Who are you?!

Darn i should have contemplated more about the definition of 'whammed', especially since we are talking about GM

 

[MrUnknown]

Yeah. Being whammed is really gooood.

Now, if you excuse me.

*walks away*

 

[mister dog]

*walks away*

So you've had the experience and now you feel ashamed? hahaha

 

[swsc73]

Still unwhamified Well, actually I´m single and I don´t listen to radio stations. Therefore I´m not easy to wham.

Neither am I.

I probably jinxed it.

@Daniel

Needed a new mouse, went to Best Buy after work. Big mistake.

Ps: If someone could photoshop this to say "Whammed" on the top I would appreciate it.

 

[Aesthetics]

...

Who are you?!

He's a Whamochist.

Anyways, I'm supposed to be typing an essay, and my Pandora is set on shuffle. Remember that Christmas station I made? Yeah, I forgot to delete it.
Wham Counter: 3.

 

[FoolKiller]

LIFE ISN'T CHEERY.

Yes, it is. Christmas even more so.

They were? 💡

Yes, but it won't be any of the stuff that got radio play.

 

[Mike-ZENKAI]

Still safe .
Avoiding shopping malls and not listening to any radio station pays off, for now.....

Unfortunately my wife now knows about this little competition. She thinks it is a nice song , so I wouldn't be suprised if I hear this godawfull tune one of the coming days.

 

[Hyped]

My friends have learned about my dislike of the song. I'll give it 2 weeks before I'm out.

@Daniel

Turns out I overestimated. Whammed by the radio after they insisted on listening to Christmas Music. It took less than a week. Trust nothing.

 

[E28]

I think I'm setting a new (worst) record this year. First Now Christmas whammed me, and then Radio 2's stupid 80's show. I should've known when the DJ mentioned one of Wham!'s 'finest songs' was coming just after the news...

On the plus side, I no longer have to live in fear of the 2(!) special edition Last Christmas LP's that reside in my basement. They have the lyrics printed on the sleeve and everything!

 

[MUSC4EVER]

So last night was our works Christmas do....and this is really hard to say to I need a minute

......I survived!!!!, heard a cover of it but that's it, bet I fooled you all!!

 

[ECGadget]

Went to a shopping centre today... no idea how but I still have not heard it.
Status: Unwhammed but precarious...

 

[titleguy1]

Playing GT6 again...
Dad played Pandora... AGAIN...

Go whammed 3 times.
Wham count: 4.

 

[Aki Ko]

I'm playing with serious fire at a Christmas parade.

Let It Go played instead.

And a AC Cobra.

The wind is blowing and they're being slow. It's miserable.

 

[Anathema]

Heard the Taylor Swift cover version again yesterday.

 

[photonrider]

She's covering for George now.

Never trust whamen.

 

[RouWa]

In Germany the original song is played 500 times daily (!) on radio. Michael Jackson is the king of pop, but George Michael is the king of royalties.

 

[Dagger311]

Unwhammed, and fifty dollars richer? Today was great.

 

[Akmuq]

I've never heard the Taylor Swift cover.

Also, onto 17.

 

[GranTurismo916]

I've never heard the Taylor Swift cover.

I've never heard any cover. In my life.

 

[Akmuq]

I've never heard any cover. In my life.

I heard the Crazy Frog one several times the year it was released, but that's it.
