George est de plus en plus en Conflit avec sa maison de disques VIRGIN qui ne sait plus quoi faire de George et donc ne fait plus de promotion pour.....
George tente tant bien que mal avec moreprotein de booster ses disques et écrit 2 titres :
- sweet toxic love
- am i losing control
.... et reprend le standat de George harrison (ex beatles) :
- oh lord
Il édite ces 3 titres sur un maxi cd qui sort en DECEMBRE 1992...
Ce single sort en Angleterre et rentre péniblement à la 100eme place des charts! Il atteint et grimpe jusqu'à la 65eme place pour stagner et redescendre ensuite!
Petit succès peu convaincant...
Seule l'Allemagne en faira un tube et le place 16eme des charts!!! La france ne le sort pas, le boude malgrés la sortie du maxi en import...
George pourtant fait la promotion du single et chante un medley "sweet toxic love & oh lord" et se produit même au CLUB DOROTHEE!!!!
En vain aucun succes en france! De toute facon, aucun cd 2 titres ou 45t n'existe en france!
Avec sweet toxic love, George parle et milite contre la vivisection et le prouve avec la pochette "choc"... : des lapins élevés en batterie et un chimpanzé vivant le crâne ouvert...
Le clip se tourne dans la maison de George à Hampstead et Celui ci apparait avec le chapeau perlé KRISHNA... D'ailleurs George cloture sa période KRISHNA avec ce single....
Le top des top est AM I LOSING CONTROL qui est un superbe morceau tant dans l'ecriture du texte, la mélodie et le remix....

Sweet Toxic Love
Oh Lord, gimme strength
Sweet Lord, gimme love
Oh Lord, gimme strength
Sweet Lord, gimme love
I'm not your lover, I wanna be your friend
But I need something, do you comprehend?
It took a long time for this heart to mend
There's something wrong with the love you send
Oh give me strength Oh Lord above
I need some of that sweet toxic love
Sweet toxic love pouring through my veins
To lift me up to make me insane
I'm not your punch bag I'm not your floor
You can't walk on me 'til you get bored
Before you break it, you must be sure
That you can't use this love no more
Oh give me strength Oh Lord above
I need some of that sweet toxic love
Sweet toxic love pouring through my veins
To lift me up, to make me insane
God would have loved you but he never had the chance
Love it means nothing 'til it's slipping through your hands
And all the people with their problems and their plans
Though it's nothing new for me and you, I still know who I am
Oh give me strength, Oh Lord above ( My sweet Lord)
I need some of that sweet toxic love (Just give me love)
Sweet toxic love pouring through my veins
To lift me up, to make me insane
Oh Lord (oh Lord), gimme stregth
Sweet Lord, gimme love (gimme love)
Oh Lord (oh Lord), gimme strength
Sweet Lord, gimme love
(just gimme love)
Am I Losing Control?
Sometimes I sit and contemplate
The bitterness of my lonely state
I know, I know I do create
These feelings in my heart
I look to you but you're confused
I feel like I can only lose
Stand a while inside my shoes
Feel the rain come down
Am I losing control, am I losing control
Was I weaker when I met you
Try and leave, I just can't let you
Am I losing control
Am I losing you?
Am I losing control?
Sometimes I sit and contemplate
The hatred that I generate
Tell me it is not my fate
To lose before I start
Oh you with eyes like thickened skies
When did ya start to mesmerise
Loving words a thin disguise
You know you are a star
Am I losing control, am I losing control
Was I weaker when I met you
Try and leave, I just can't let you
Am I losing control
Am I losing you?
Am I losing control?
I should've changed that stupid lock
I should've made you leave me be
If I'd known for just one minute
You'd become a part of me
Am I losing control, am I losing control
Was I weaker when I met you
Try and leave, I just can't let you
Am I losing control
Am I losing you?
Am I losing control?
Oh Lord
Here I clutch my rosaries
And picture God a man
Yes he's standing right in front of me
Yes he knows just what I am
I am frightened by these moments
And the things I can reveal
He says 'Hold on'
You know I love you still
It don't matter
What the good book says
Whether it's good or it's right
I'm gonna do it anyway
Oh Lord, Give me strength
Oh Lord, Give me love
Oh Lord, Give me strength
Oh Lord, Give me love
Give me love
Give me love
Give me love
Take me to the river
'Cause the desert is too dry
I'm not asking for redemption
For the things I feel inside
When you found me here in darkness
I was cursing at my fate
Before you leave me standing
It is not too late
Redemption
I don't need no cure
Be your healing hands
On the sick and the poor
Oh Lord, Give me strength
Oh Lord, Give me love
Oh Lord, Give me strength
Oh Lord, Give me love
Oh Lord, Give me love
Oh Lord, Give me love
Oh Lord, Give me love
Oh Lord, Give me love
Oh Lord, Give me strength
Oh Lord, Give me love
Oh Lord, Give me strength
Oh Lord, Give me love
Oh Lord, Give me strength
Oh Lord, Give me love
Oh Lord, Give me strength
Oh Lord
