Retro Video of the Week: "Last Christmas" by Wham!

Back in the mid '80s, it was not unusual for a racially and ethnically diverse group of fashionable twentysomethings to spend Christmas together, without their families, in a mountainside cabin, spending their days skiing, having foppish snowball fights, and decorating perhaps the most pathetic looking Christmas tree ever seen, while spending their nights drinking wine, talking about each others' earrings, and thinking longingly of the previous Christmas, when a closeted Cypriot man gave a woman with a perm his heart.  And a broach he got on sale at Zales.
