George Michael New Song September 7 2017

New George song tomorrow morning on BBC Radio 2

Posthumous George Michael single to be released tomorrow - NME

 

Psyched about this

 

Unless it from Listen Without Prejudice set next month,

 

Looks like it's a track from new Box Set
George Michael: New song by late star to get first play - BBC News

 

Ant the website is up again with a message from his family. Looks promising!

 

It's a remix of Fantasy, with Nile Rogers.
It will be a bonus track on the (2CD) Deluxe edition of Listen w/o Prejudice vol.1, (to be released in October).
It will not be included on the Superdeluxe Edition, except as digital download.

 

It's not much cop.

Listen to George Michael's new single 'Fantasy'

 

I wanted to like this but I don't, but I am not a fan of remixes anyway.
The original is such a great track and really should have been on the LWP album, or at least released as a stand alone single.
I hope this isn't a sign of things to come, remix albums etc.
I read somewhere recently that George has three albums worth of material recorded waiting to be released.
David Austin seems to be in charge of this release. He is now described as George's manager, he is a life long friend and has written and recorded with George since the early days. If George's sisters have given David the responsibility of sorting through the recordings and deciding what will be released then I think that can only be a good thing.

 

Fab-tastic ......wish George was still with us though

 

It's ok.
But ..it should be amazing.

 

After a few listening, I think this version is OK. The part I like is that George's vocal is upfront and very good. I missed the trumpet part. The remix sounds less warm than the original one.
