Seriously..I was REALLY pumped about this EP and dang it..they don't release it to iTunes USA but they do in the UK? What the heck? I dig George Michael's music and now I can't hear these songs! This sucks! WTF!!!!!

Does anyone know what the deal is? Does anyone have the songs? Can they upload?

Anyone...? PLEASE!!!!!

can't you just go to the UK site and download it?

ehuffnsd said:

Nope!
You have to have a UK credit card to download from UK website
You have to have a USA credit card to download from USA website
And so on and so on..
I called Apple about this and there is nothing they can. The operator even felt sorry for me because she had the same problem!
One of the few drawbacks of iTunes I suppose

that's odd. i order all of my Kylie stuff from Amazon Uk with no problem with my American CC

Normal online stores are fine, iTunes is a different matter. I get pissed off because there's loads of stuff on USA iTunes that I can't buy.

it's probably over rights and payments. i saw Madonna say the reason she waited to go on Itunes was they weren't willing to pay her the royalities she wanted. once they made the agreement she got on Itunes.

Complain to George Michael.
Why hasn't he made it available to all iTunes sites?

ehuffnsd said:

Its couple of things
if u buy from uk store it will effect the uk charts if it wasnt released in the us alot of us fans will buy it from uk itunes which will distort the charts

The price of downloads in other countires is alot more then in the us

i belive apple pays 70cent for each song to the record companies

maybe madonna got 80cents or so

he no longer lives in the uk he lives in LA with his male partner

what surprised me his ex partner died of AIDs how come he didnt contact it

He also said its very difficult to get any airplay on the radio in the US

Actully they are living the UK now... they moved there after Shoot the Dog.

Anselmo and George only dated for a few months before Anselmo got very sick. also it worries me that you don't understand HIV/AIDS. It is possible to have serrodiscontent partners. have you heard of condoms? it is 2005 now not 1985. you're pretty good with the charts but you need some help with the basic Public Health Info.

obviously he was either careful or lucky

Are people really as uninformed about HIV/AIDS on this webiste as it appears? or am i being to over-senistive? or a combo of the two?

come one now people get with it.

It's Andrew's fault.

well, to be fair, condoms aren't fool-proof. many, many children are born each year despite the presence of a condom. surely you aren't suggesting it's the any more fool-proof against contracting AIDS.

asg said:

except that, as mentioned previously, you can't buy from UK iTunes without a UK credit card.

it's safer sex the only safe sex is no sex. however i encourage everyone to be educated. and it's plain ingorance to think that because someone is dating someone who is positive that person will become positive. condoms are not fool proof but they do work.

what year are we in people?

ehuffnsd said:

Can someone from the UK just download the entire EP and post the songs on some free uploading site? PWEASE!!!!!

Universaluv said:

well what is most astonishing is that his partner never told him he carried aids
Which is even more deadly

Of course safe sex works but if u r with a partner u have a bit more trust since he was living with him so he could have let his guard down and not always have safe sex


Thats the reason i was surprised he is not infected

asg said:

he might be. i know of 2 gay celebrities who are HIV Poz but don't tell anyone. it could hurt their carears. GM, however isn't one of the two that i know who do.

Iam sure its just more self absored drivel. Can he write a ballad thats not first perspective?
