I CANNOT wait for the new LP this fall! excited

Good to see him back with some new music (and in better health?) but the autotune and the beat make this song sound a bit too generic for my taste.The lyrics are kind of alright so I think it´s a shame that he sort of cheapened this song with autotune and that beat.

Not a bad song though.....but George doesn´t need these gimmicks. He´s a good singer, composer and songwriter. But hey, songs like this have always been part of his body of work, even the pandering to current trends, so it´s okay. I just hope he also releases a more acoustic version of this song, or if not acoustic then maybe a less autotuned version with a fatter and more creative, less generic beat.

Good song though, despite the points I mentioned above.

Really glad it's a dance song. Have to get used to the melody though...it doesn't grab you at first listen.

I dig it. It kinda reminded me of "Celestica" from Crystal Castles. I can see why the video's images would make sense with the song. Then again I'm always excited about anything George puts out. Thanks tinaz. smile

Love me some George but when I heard "dance album" I was hoping for a funky Chicago-house throw-back Chromeo sound (ala "Fantasy" or "Do You Really Want To Know")... not souless techno (ala every Gay nightclub in the world). I gave him a pass on the "True faith" cover but this is just kinda meh for me.

to me it sounds a bit like a remix of "prescious box" on patience.

but that's not a bad thing, i like that song and i like this one too.

always interesting to see what george m comes up with, especially the albums.

he releases so few but they are always good/great or amazing.

and true love lives on lollipops and crisps

Awesome lyrics regarding his recent health experience.

This seems like a Madonna song though. Nevertheless it's good to hear his voice is still top notch.

I don't care too much for the repetitive beat 'cuz it's not interesting but I am always in love with GM's voice, autotuned or not.

Love the lyrics too. cool

I like it alot actually, probably the most i have liked a new George song in eons, the autotone is annoying to some extent, but i understand him using it in this song, its a club song, i dont think hes caring about too much on the vocal end, the lyrics are good, positive for him singing about life for once in a long time, realizing that ALL these deaths, it easily could have been him, funny, but Elton John was trying to tell him that for years and people told Elton to butt out, and here George is singing those very words.
