Father Figure: Video

Father Figure è un brano scritto e interpretato dal grande George Michael, contenuto nell'album Faith pubblicato nel 1987. Si tratta del primo disco da solista per il cantautore britannico, disco che riscuote grandissimo successo in tutto il mondo... solo negli USA si aggiudica oltre 10 milioni di copie vendute! La canzone, nonostante il successo dell'album, non raggiunge posti alti nelle classifiche, specialmente in Inghilterra. È una tipica ballata pop in perfetto stile anni '80.
