    In the space of 50 odd minutes George Michael had created a brand new Pop identity, and the true genius of this recording was that he managed to maintain his original Wham fans, and yet introduce a wide and varied audience of twenty somethings, galvanized by his great voice, some strong songs and an enigmatic presence that would continue throughout his career. http://hackskeptic.com

    Faith is not timeless, but it's one of the greatest pop albums to come out of the 80's. George Michael established himself as a serious pop star to be reckoned with after escaping the grips of 80's pop duo Wham. Two decades later, Faith is definitely dated, but it's still overall enjoyable and brings back nostalgic memories of a distant pass.

    While the synthesized sheen of '80s pop hasn't held up for everyone, even casual listeners will discover a new appreciation for the artist underneath superficiality and infamy.

    As a reminder of his consummate talent, and a place to start George's comeback, it's hard to beat. [Feb 2011, p.93]

    The album holds up as one of the Eighties' smartest megapop statements, full of passion and surefire hooks.
