Overview
Boogie Box High's first single was a cover version of "[[Jive Talkin'|Jive TalkinTemplate:'-]]", originally a top ten hit for the Bee Gees in 1975, featuring Michael on lead vocals. Released in June 1987, the cover reached number 7 on the UK Singles Chart.<ref name="UK"/>
Outrageous, Boogie Box High's only album, was released in 1989. It was released in the United States via SBK Records. The album included the previous two singles, "Jive TalkinTemplate:'-" and "Gave It All Away", as well as a new released titled "Nervous". The latter single failed to garner any chart success.
Michael's contributions to the album were two previously unreleased songs he had written for Wham!'s debut studio album Fantastic, "Golden Soul" and "Soul Boy".<ref>Template:Cite book</ref> Once again, Michael was not credited for any of this.<ref>Template:Cite book</ref>
