Podcast appearances and mentions of Andrew Ridgeley

Fáilte ar ais chuig eagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo ar an 2ú lá de mí an Mheithimh, liomsa Lauren Ní Loingsigh. I 1978 sheol an Aire Sláinte Charles Haughey scéim ar leith chun cabhrú le daoine óga sna cathracha a raibh riosca orthu damáiste a dhéanamh dá shaol. I 2000 bhí na hairí ón thuaidh faoi ionsaí ó na n-antoisceach ó dhá thaobh. I 1998 maraíodh 15 eallach ar fheirm I Toomevara de bharr go raibh toirneach agus tintreach ann. Bhí na heallaí ar foscadh faoi chrann seiceamar nuair a bhí sé ag cur báistí go trom agus thit an crann orthu. I 2006 bhí rangú san Aonach Urmhumhan sa tábla IBAL go hiontach mar chuaigh siad ó 'go leor bruscar' go 'níl aon bhruscar ann'. Chuaigh siad ó 51ú háit chuig 13ú háit. Sin Sonique le It Feels So Good – an t-amhrán is mó ar an lá seo I 2000 Ag lean ar aghaidh le nuacht cheoil ar an lá seo I 1973 chuaigh Paul McCartney chuig uimhir a haon I Meiriceá lena albam Red Rose Speedway agus fuair sé uimhir a haon lena hamhrán My Love agus d'fhan sé ann ar feadh ceithre seachtaine. I 1984 fuair Wham! A chéad uimhir a haon sa Bhreatain lena amhrán Wake Me Up Before You Go Go. Scríobh George Michael an t-amhrán agus bhí sé páirteach den bhanna cheoil. An inspioráid don amhrán ná nuair a scríobh Andrew Ridgeley nóta dá thuismitheoirí ag rá 'wake me up before you go' agus scríobh sé 'up' dhá uair agus mar sin scríobh sé an teideal 'wake me up before you go go'. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo rugadh aisteoir Wentworth Miller sa Bhreatain I 1972 agus rugadh aisteoir Ethan Slater I Meiriceá ar an lá seo I 1992 agus seo chuid de na rudaí a rinne sé. Beidh mé ar ais libh amárach le heagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo. Welcome back to another edition of Ar An Lá Seo on the 2nd of June, with me Lauren Ní Loingsigh 1978: health minister Charles Haughey had launched a unique scheme to help young people in cities who may have been at risk of becoming delinquents. 2000: the norths power sharing ministers were under attack last night from extremists on both sides. 1998 - FIFTEEN cattle on a farm in Toomevara were killed in a severe thunder and lightning storm which struck North Tipperary. The cattle were sheltering in a hill field under a sycamore tree from a heavy downpour of rain when the "act of God" occurred.  2006 -Nenagh's ranking in the national IBAL league made a dramatic improvement, rising from the categorization of ‘Litter Blackspot' to ‘Litter Free Status'. rising from 51st place out of 57 towns to 13th in the latest survey.  That was Sonique with It Feels So Good – the biggest song on this day in 2000 Onto music news on this day In 1973 Paul McCartney had both the No.1 positions on the US charts when 'Red Rose Speedway', went to the top of the album chart and 'My Love', started a four week run as the No.1 single. 1984 Wham! had their first UK No.1 with 'Wake Me Up Before You Go Go.' Written and produced by George Michael, one half of the duo. Inspiration for the song was a scribbled note left by his Wham! partner Andrew Ridgeley for Andrew's parents, originally intended to read "wake me up before you go" but with "up" accidentally written twice, so Ridgeley wrote "go" twice on purpose. And finally celebrity birthdays on this day – actor Wentworth Miller was born in the UK in 1972 and actor Ethan Slater was born in America on this day in 1992 and this is some of the stuff he has done. I'll be back with you tomorrow with another edition of Ar An Lá Seo.

„Last Christmas“ von der britischen Band Wham! ist DER Weihnachtspopsong schlechthin und er wurde vielfach gecovert - Coldpay, Kim Wilde, Kylie Minogue sowie Ariana Grande, Boss Hoss und Taylor Swift haben neben vielen anderen diesen Erfolgstitel interpretiert. Aber das Original, das in diesem Jahr sein 40-jähriges Bestehen feiert, konnten sie alle nicht verdrängen. Hinter der Band Wham! verbergen sich George Michael und Andrew Ridgeley.

Let's talk about autobiographies.   In today's podcast, I'm sharing some little gems of inspiration I have read from a variety of guitarists in their autobiographies. You'll hear stories from Neil Young, Eric Clapton, and bizarrely, even Andrew Ridgeley (from Wham!).   I find that when guitarists and musicians talk in interviews about their experiences on the guitar, they rarely go into much detail… BUT when it's in their autobiographies, we hear so much more. It's super interesting to read about their struggles, successes, and highs and lows. Not only are these interesting for us guitarists, but these stories can be massively inspiring too!   You can now get my two exclusive and free eBooks today...

Paulo and Dori remember a time when ads, were just ads - not dirty little stalkers trying to get you to drink beer. We look back at the 80s sitcoms Matthew Perry guest starred in and are now convinced that we missed a whole season of ''Who's the Boss''. Dori watched a doccie and blamed it on the rain, the 1980s SABC blamed it on Stevie Wonder, Andrew Ridgeley blamed it on Björn Borg and John Stamos could blame it on his hairdresser.

Today, we're cranking up the nostalgia as we take a groove-filled trip back to the 1980s with the iconic album "Make It Big" by the sensational duo Wham! "Make It Big" is not just an album; it's a cultural touchstone that captures the essence of '80s pop music. Released in 1984, Wham!, consisting of George Michael and Andrew Ridgeley, skyrocketed to international fame with this sophomore effort. The album's infectious blend of pop, funk, and soul immediately struck a chord with listeners and solidified the duo's status as pop royalty. This album is a treasure trove of hits that continue to light up dance floors to this day. From the irresistible groove of "Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go" to the soulful crooning of "Careless Whisper," "Make It Big" is a showcase of George Michael's vocal prowess and the duo's uncanny ability to craft hooks that stick in your mind long after the music stops. Wham!'s music is not just about catchy tunes; it's a time capsule that transports us back to the neon-soaked, carefree spirit of the '80s. "Make It Big" encapsulates the era's exuberance and glamour, making it a quintessential addition to any vinyl collection. It's an album that perfectly captures the soundtrack of a generation. When "Make It Big" hit the shelves, it did just that – it made it big. The album's commercial success was meteoric, earning multi-platinum status in various countries and topping charts worldwide. Beyond the numbers, Wham! achieved a level of stardom that allowed them to transcend music and become pop culture icons. George Michael's undeniable charisma and Andrew Ridgeley's energetic presence made Wham! more than just a music act – they were a phenomenon. "Make It Big" wasn't just an album; it was a statement that echoed through fashion, music videos, and a sense of youthful rebellion that defined the decade. As we gently place the needle on this vinyl gem, we invite you to join us on a sonic journey through the jubilant world of "Make It Big." We'll explore the album's impact on pop culture, the magic behind the music, and the enduring legacy of Wham!'s unforgettable sound. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In this episode of You Can't Make This Up, we are talking about the Netflix documentary “WHAM!" out now on Netflix. Host Rebecca Lavoie interviews producer Simon Halfon. In 1982, best friends and teenagers George Michael and Andrew Ridgeley set out to conquer the world as WHAM! By 1986, it was over. Now for the very first time, told in their own words, it's the amazing story of how in four years they dominated the charts around the world with classic pop songs. With unprecedented access to both George and Andrew's personal archive including never-before-seen footage, alongside rare, candid and previously unheard interviews, the Netflix documentary “WHAM!” charts their incredible journey from school friends to superstars. SPOILER ALERT! If you haven't watched “WHAM!" yet, make sure to add it to your watch-list before listening on.

Two scrappy teens and BFFs from suburban London took the pop music world by storm in the 1980's as a duo called Wham!.

A new documentary tracks their rise and ultimate end with never before heard interviews from both members, Andrew Ridgeley and George Michael. Director Chris Smith joins to talk "Wham!" 

Ever wondered what happened to that 80s one hit wonder? Be more specific you say? A conversation about Linda Hamilton's Terminator arms reminded Paulo and Dori of the very un-Disney Beauty and the Beast. Who was worse? 80s video store guys or 80s music store guys? The video store guys let Paulo leave with age-restricted movies so they're in the lead. Marisa Tomei in a towel, Andrew Ridgeley's ex walking to China, Dolph Lundgren's health and a very boring David Hasselhoff are all waiting for you in this weeks version of the Oros Man's favourite podcast.
