Hitachi Maxell Cassette Tapes (Japan, 1980)

Wham!’s George Michael and Andrew Ridgeley appeared in three commercials for Hitachi Maxell’s UD-II cassette tape in Japan.

The duo had a little bit of fun, changing the lyrics of the song “Freedom” in the commercial. They rewrote the lyrics to “you’re the fish face I adore” as a joke.

I can’t wait to see you, why don’t you come here no more?

People think you’re pouting baby, you’re the fish face I adore! I can’t wait to see you!”
