The new George Michael song is awesome. It's called "An Easier Affair" and you can hear it at this link from Radio One in the UK.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/radi...right_fri#

The site will let you fast forward during the broadcast and you want to be at around the 2hr and 30 minute mark. There's an interview with George about his upcoming tour, new Greatest Hits album and the fact that it will contain 4-5 new songs one of which is the new tune and another is a duet of one of his older songs called "Heal The Pain" that he does with Paul McCartney.

What do you think?

you probably mean its going to bomb...

George Michael interesting..i dont think he is much of a happy man.

Did that internet EP ever come out?

i wanna hear it but i aint got no time to fast forwad thru and find it.

the old grey mare he
aint what he used to be
aint what he used to be
aint what he used to be

I heard it..

It was very lame...

probably a good thing it didn't

It's kinda funky. me likes it

oh for cryin' out loud. the last GH collection had to pass itself off as a "best of" and pad itself out with b-sides and what-not (even though it was very good). and he's only had one proper album since then, and we have ANOTHER greatest hits collection on the way?

Heard the new song and I really don't like it. It's barely B-side material.

As far as the new Greatest Hits, I heard it's a combination of George Michael solo stuff and stuff from Wham!. I'm not sure if that just means "Carless Whisper" and "A Different Corner", or if they're going to include all of Wham's hits.

He's such a whiney little bitch.


get your ass up and write some decent music.

glad to see all that marijuana and coke didn't take away his voice

?

it's crap...some of his worst lyrics 2.

I like the new song.

the drugs and alcohol may not have taken his voice.. but he has very noticable vocal nodules...

So when is the album coming out?

I hope the "new" songs aren't like those dull songs on the online EP. Yuck

Keep in mind how long "Patience" came out.. remember freeek and shoot the dog? came out like 3 years before the album.


Prolific George

are you better?

Cloudbuster said:

i think he means there was "HiStory" then "Invincible", "Ones" then "Essential". if i have the release dates correct.



i've noticed this alot recently. people that had a greatest hits out, then release 1 maybe 2 albums and out comes another hits package, and it's pushed even harder with more hits, b-sides, etc. i'm guessing it has to do with poor album sales (newer releases) and perhaps in Michael Jackson's case something with the record label and artist parting ways.





awaits Cloudbuter's correction on MJ releases.

Don't forget
"The Ultimate Collection" (Box Set) / HIStory (Disc 1) (Re-Release with different Cover) and the special editions of "Off The Wall" "Thriller" "Bad" and "Dangerous."
