“Club Tropicana” by Wham! remains an iconic dancefloor moment, decades after it first dropped.

Released in 1983, the track blends post-disco grooves, Latin jazz rhythms, and a touch of playful sass — all wrapped up in George Michael and Andrew Ridgeley’s signature flair. Inspired by London’s Le Beat Route scene and wild Club 18–30 holidays, it delivers pure poolside fantasy with a bassline that still slaps.

The music video, filmed at Pikes Hotel Ibiza, is legend: cocktails, white Speedos, trumpet solos in the pool, and a twist-ending that flips the whole sun-soaked romance. It’s been echoed in recent visuals from artists like Lewis Capaldi, proving its visual influence still hits.

The B-side, “Blue (Armed with Love)”, is a dubby, spaced-out groove that got a second life in live shows and streaming drops — a deep cut worth diving into.

On YouTube, “Club Tropicana” continues to rack up views with over 36 million plays and counting — because let’s face it, fun and sunshine really is enough for everyone.
