I've had trouble writing this, and the reason is, I can't even be remotely objective when it comes to George Michael. So I'm not gonna try. Twenty Five is a compilation set spotlighting some of his music throughout his illustrious career, and I love it. Michael's catalogue is large and stylistically diverse, and to my ears he pulls all those styles off well.
The collection isn't something to buy and expect to get every George Michael song you'd ever want, but it does contain a good selection, plus some great new material, like "An Easier Affair" and "Understand." I really like the picture of Michael that adorns the cover, also.
