Marvelous DS, one page, 11.75 x 16.5, circa late 1985. A copy of No. 1 magazine's 1985 reader's poll form, which Michael has playfully filled out and signed in red ink. In full: Favourite Male Singer ("Green"), Favourite Female Singer ("June Montana (Brilliant)"), Greatest Group ("Wham"), Ghastliest Group ("Wham"), Best Single ("Freeway of Love"), Worst Single ("Shout—easily!"), Best Album ("Ice on Fire—Elton John"), Worst Album ("—"), Favourite Video ("I'm Your Man"), Best Pop TV Show ("D. O. D. P. (Best of Bad Bunch)"), Unmissable TV Programme ("I must have missed it"), Best Radio Show ("Steve Wright"), Direst DJ ("Chris Tarrant"), Favourite Film ("Back to the Future"), Most Stylish Pop Star ("Me"), Dodgiest Dresser ("Andy"), Best New Act ("—"), Most Missed Act ("Oh, how I miss them"), No. 1 Pin Up ("Can't say me again, so I won't"), Romance of the Year ("Andrew Ridgeley & Andrew Ridgeley"), Creep of the Year ("Same"), Bore of the Year ("Ditto"), Event of the Year ("Live Aid, of course"), I Would Make My Personal Award of the Year to ("St. Bob, or anyone who'll pay for it"), For ("Obvious reasons"), Because ("that's the kind of guy I am"), Name ("George Michael"), Address ("Wouldn't you like to know, eh"), and Phone No. ("999"). In very good to fine condition, with creasing to the edges. A humorous and potentially insightful list of answers from Michael, whose light barbs at fellow Wham! musician Andrew Ridgeley may point to his frustrations with the group's direction; Wham! disbanded the upcoming spring, with both Michael and Ridgeley affirming the break as 'amicable.' Still, 1985 proved a momentous year for the duo, with Wham! undertaking a huge world tour and making an appearance at the Live Aid benefit concert on July 13th, with Michael performing a rendition of 'Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me' with Elton John.
