The story behind the song

"Faith" by George Michael began with the idea of creating a rock and roll pastiche. The song, written and produced by Michael, incorporates a classic rock and roll rhythm, starting with a church organ before bringing in guitar strumming, finger clicking, hand-claps, tambourine, and hi-hat. It has been described as a blend of rock and roll, rockabilly, and folk-pop. At its heart, the song plays like a confident and playful dive into classic rock influences.
