Seether's "Careless Whisper" is somebody else's song: George Michael and Andrew Ridgeley hold the writing credit, and the band's job was to make it their own. Shaun Morgan takes the lead vocal and plays guitar alongside Troy McLawhorn, Dale Stewart covers electric bass and backing vocals, and John Humphrey sits behind the drum kit. Howard Benson produced it, Chris Lord-Alge mixed it, and it first appeared in 2007.
