Careless Whisper was released in 1984 as a George Michael solo single, co-written with Andrew Ridgeley, and its opening saxophone riff became one of the most recognised romantic motifs in pop. The song topped charts internationally and has been covered many times across jazz, lounge and instrumental styles. This Beatriz Omena recording follows that romantic tradition, which is why Brazilian and Portuguese speaking audiences tag it simply as romantica. Online, the melody is shared for Valentine edits, wedding clips and ironic romance memes where instant sentiment is needed.
