I have a bone to pick with “Last Christmas” and no, it’s probably not the one George Michael is hoping for. I don’t really care that it’s overplayed and over-saturated. Five, now six times on today’s blog? Whatever. I don’t even mind George Michael’s breathy, exasperated delivery. I mean, it makes me a little uncomfortable, but I’ll get over it. Nope. My problem with “Last Christmas” is that it does not make sense.

Now I don’t know what George Michael went to school for, if he went at all, but I doubt he studied much math. The other guy in Wham? I don’t know who he is. I don’t care, either, because he’s also obviously not too strong with numbers. Let’s look at “Last Christmas” as if it were a math problem. A really simple one, too. Like, second grade simple.

So, George Michael has one heart.

George Michael gives his heart away to someone. Presumably the other guy in Wham.

Guy who now has George Michael’s heart gives it away the very next day, perhaps explaining why I haven’t heard anything from him since.

At this point, George Michael doesn’t have a heart. Insert joke here.

How, then, can he give it to someone special next year?

He can’t.

“Last Christmas” is an insult to mathematical logic and I will not stand for it.

PS: You can point out that medically it is impossible for one…
