He's released a cover of Stevie Wonder's "You And I" as a free mp3 on his website as a "wedding gift" for William and Kate. Shows his voice is still in prime form and just as good as it was 20 years ago. I am surprised because Whitney, Elton and Boy George all sound horrific nowadays as a result to the damage from drug usage.

He really does sound utterly sublime. His voice sounds exactly like it did 20 years ago.

What did everyone thing of "Shoot the Dog"? He got absolutely roasted for it at the time ("The Sun" were particularly vicious) but I loved it. I also thought he did a great job with The One's "Flawless".

Chris and I re-watched the George Michael "Star Stories" last night. Absolutely hilarious.

Boy George: "I put it to you, George Micheal, that you are a gay."
George: "What? I'm straight, Boy George. I like pints and football and kissing girls."
Boy George: "Kissing girls with willies, you mean?"

Freeek was fun camp, I loved the music, but the song itself was dire.

Agree that Flawless was the superior of his early 00's dance singles.

George Michael Announces Symphonica UK Tour & Tickets

George Michael has finally put an end to rumours that he is about to go on tour - by announcing that he is to embark on a world tour later this year.

The pop legend revealed news that he was going to tour last week following a Twitter post saying, “Ok, get ready people, TOUR DATES ANNOUNCED NEXT WEDNESDAY!!!"

He later added the following tweets:

"This tour will be very different from 25 Live tour...."
"For a start, having lost 15 pounds since then, I'm thinking of doing it naked...:)"
"Just to show off my youthful physique.....:)"
"You will probably be happy to hear that I changed my mind and decided to play arenas after all..... :)"

Following last week's Twitter posts, confirmed tour dates were revealed by the star lunchtime today via a press conference at London's Royal Opera House.

The Wham! Star, who is never far away from controversy surrounding his private life, hasn’t played live in the UK since his two concerts in London in 2008, which he called ‘The Final Two’. He last performed live on a sold out tour of Australia in February 2010.

As one of the world's best-selling music artists, George Michael has sold over 100 million albums. His 1987 debut solo album, Faith, has sold over 25 million copies worldwide and made several records and achievements in the United States. The singer has garnered seven number one singles in the UK, and eight number one hits on the Billboard Hot 100 in the U.S. In 2008, Billboard magazine ranked Michael the 40th most successful artist on the "The Billboard Hot 100 Top All-Time Artists".
