"monkey" george michael I've got faith playing on my Cd player right now and since this cd came out i've always wondered what the "monkey" is --why do i have to share my baby with a monkey? I figured this is the best place to ask!! Let the rain come down...17 days.... | |

I thought he was referring to some type of drug or habit? | |

Yes, let there be no mistake. This monkey Geo speaks of is a drug addiction. A monkey on your back usually means heroin. ...
Were Geo and Boy George ever involved? Boy was addicted to heroin. Keep your headphones on. | |

The song was indeed about an unnamed drug user (not Boy George, although the timing fits).
If you haven't got it/heard it, get the Monkey 12" remix. Its a jam and lewis production and it makes the album version sound weak. Its a fantastic 80's remix. But while you have faith in the player, crank up Kissing A Fool! Superb song. Thats were I'd like to hear Prince go, Jazz into swing! . | |

Now that I had to mention plastic I have to LOL.. the drug explanation sounds correct, but I like this one better. but GM had a drug problem himself--i remember seeing something on MTV in the early 90s about GM saying he thought he was going to lose his voice b/c of all the drugs he did in the late 80s.
