British singer-songwriter George Michael died Sunday of suspected heart failure at the age of 53.
As one half of 1980s group Wham! with Andrew Ridgeley and then as a successful solo artist, Michael was behind some of the biggest pop hits of the past 35 years — selling more than 100 million records in the process.
The Huffington Post celebrates his contribution to music with 21 of Michael’s most iconic tracks.
