SlumberPartyMovies recently had an opportunity to interview George Michael about his epic video, Club Tropicana, which has always puzzled me on a few counts.
SPM: Great to meet you, George! Long time-listener, first-time interviewer. Let’s jump right in: Why weren’t the credits in the Wham! The Hits VHS version?
GM: Look at two beautiful women in matching slouchy shirts clip-clop along a darkened path and forget your question.
SPM: Who the fuck is this guy?
GM: Look at me posing with a white wine spritzer and forget your question.
SPM: Where is the place where membership’s a smiling face, where strangers take you by the hand and welcome you to wonderland?
GM: Beneath the Panama.
SPM: Wait, like south of the Panama, or underground, or what?
GM: No, sorry. I meant they welcome you from beneath their panamas. Like hats.
SPM: Oh, so where is it? Acapulco? It must be Acapulco, right?
GM: Look into my eyes and forget your question.
SPM: Who the fuck is this guy?
A: Look at me showering and forget your question.
SPM: Why is it that all that’s missing is the sea, when you’re clearly sitting on the beach in this scene? And you talk about soft white sands and blue lagoons?
A: Look at me showering and forget your question.
SPM: Why is Andrew Ridgeley wearing long jams, and you’re in a white speedo?
GM: I am Greek and he is not.
SPM: That’s fair. But his hair is clearly better than yours.
GM: Look at these women’s crotches and forget you ever thought that.
SPM: Who the fuck is this guy?
GM: Look at us me angry in a cowboy hat and forget your question.
SPM: Do the girls stop and pick you up or leave you stranded?
GM: Look at me shaving naked and forget your question.
SPM: OK, so you’re pilots and they’re flight attendants? Why did you act like you didn’t know each other? Or were just surprised that they’re really hot in bikinis? Do you know each other or not? And are you on furlough or something, which is why you’re a pilot and permitted to drink all day and bake in the sun for a week? and honestly, I know it’s the 80s, but it’s a little sexist that you guys get to be pilots and they’re attendants.
GM: Look at Andrew showering and forget your question.
SPM: Forget my question? That’s a weird thing to say! No!
GM: Then look deeply into my eyes and forget your question.
SPM: Where are you going on those donkeys?
GM: Look at us shirtless, playing the trumpet, and forget your question.
SPM: Forget my question? That’s a weird thing to say! No!
GM: Look at us in pilot uniforms and forget your question.
SPM: Wow! Looks like that’s all the time we have for today. Thanks, George! You’re a true SlumberPartyMovie god.
GM: I know.
