    Let It Be
    (Ferry Aid - 1987)
    When I find myself in times of trouble
    Mother Mary comes to me
    Speaking words of wisdom
    Let it be

    And in my hour of darkness
    She is standing right in front of me
    Speaking words of wisdom
    Let it be

    Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
    Whisper words of wisdom
    Let it be

    And when the broken-hearted people
    Living in the world agree
    There will be an answer
    Let it be

    Although they maybe parted
    There's still a chance that they will see
    There will be an answer
    Let it be

    Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
    There will be an answer
    Let it be

    Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
    There will be an answer
    Let it be

    And when the night is cloudy
    There's still a light that shines on me
    Shines until tomorrow
    Let it be

    I wake up to the sound of music
    Mother Mary comes to me
    Speaking words of wisdom
    Let it be

    Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
    Whisper words of wisdom
    Let it be

    Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
    Whisper words of wisdom
    Let it be

    When I find myself in times of trouble
    Mother Mary comes to me
    Speaking words of wisdom
    Let it be

    Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
    Whisper words of wisdom
    Let it be

    Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
    There will be an answer
    Let it be

    I'm A Believer
    Read it in the news one day
    Wrapped between the war times and the weather
    Someone found a better way
    Guaranteed to make us live together

    He said
    Don't make love a secret
    Got the feeling but where do we go from here
    You got pass it on don't keep it
    Well if you need one volunteer

    I'm a believer
    I'm a believer of what I'm dreaming of
    I'm a believer
    I'm a believer in this thing called love

    Turning on my radio
    Thinking I would find my favourite station
    I flipped but little did I know
    I would hear a different conversation

    They said
    We should help each other
    I kept listening to hear if I heard right
    No matter what your feeling or colour
    Tell the whole world day and night

    I'm a believer
    I'm a believer of what I'm dreaming of
    I'm a believer
    I'm a believer in this thing called love

    I'm a believer
    I'm a believer of what I'm dreaming of
    I'm a believer
    I'm a believer in this thing called love

    If I live to see the day
    We'd all come together
    Then it's meant to be that way
    Forever and ever on

    A thing called love
    A thing called love
    I'm a believer
    I'm a believer
    I'm a believer

    I'm a believer
    What you say
    I'm a believer of what I'm dreaming of
    I'm a believer
    One more time
    I'm a believer in this thing called love

    I'm a believer
    Everybody sing
    I'm a believer of what I'm dreaming of
    I'm a believer
    This thing called love
    I'm a believer in this thing called love

    I'm a believer
    I'm dreaming of
    I'm dreaming of
    I'm a believer of what I'm dreaming of
    I'm a believer
    I'm a believer in this thing called love

    If I Can't Have You
    Don't know why I'm surviving every lonely day
    When there's got to be no chance for me
    My life would end, and it doesn't matter how I cry
    My tears of love are a waste of time if I turn away

    Am I strong enought to see it through
    Go crazy is what I will do

    If I can't have you
    I don't want nobody baby

    Can't let go, and it doesn't matter how I try
    I gave it all so easily to you my love

    Two dreams that never will come true
    Am I strong enough to see it through
    Go crazy is what I will do

    If I can't have you
    I don't want nobody baby


    Tell Me Why
    Heading out to nowhere (late at night)
    Melodies inside my head (spinning round and round)
    City lies behind me (fast asleep)
    The sweetest dreams escape me (they were so hard to keep)

    Get me feeling so alive
    I just can't keep it all inside
    I'm winding up to something good
    But I can't stop even though I know I should

    Tell me why, tell me why

    I won't change my style (no, not for anyone)
    Just sit down and leave it for a while (until the damage is done)

    Got me feeling so alive
    I just can't keep it all inside
    I'm winding up to something good
    But I can't stop even though I know I should

    Tell me why, tell me why

    I could be anything that I wanted to be
    I believe if I see what I wanted to see
    And I know, yes, I know you told me that night

    I was shown to the path that would lead to your heart
    and to veer from that road it would tear us apart
    And I know, yes I know, you told me so that night

    Tell me why, tell me why

  • LE SINGLE DE LA RESURRECTION!!!!!
    ENORME CARTON DANS LES CHARTS!!!!!!
    Boy George encore en seuvrage de la drogue, pointe un single en haut des charts!!!

    Le single sort en mars 1987 mais fait un ENORME CARTON EN FRANCE EN JUIN, JUILLET, AOUT ET SEPTEMBRE....

    EVERYTHING I OWN est une reprise de DAVID GATES qui avait également hissé le chanteur de reggae KEN BOOTHE en tête des Charts....

    Il devient N°1 des ventes en Angleterre 3 jours apès le proces du boy (mouvement de sympathie anglo saxon), 5 en Australie et 3eme en Italie....
    Il ne sort pas aux Etats Unis qui boude George à cause de ses frasques junky...
    La FRANCE le classe 7eme....de ventes... pour stagner longtemps à la 11eme place ensuite!

    La face b est "use me"...

    Everything I Own
    You sheltered me from harm
    Kept me warm, you kept me warm
    You gave my life to me
    You set me free, set me free

    Of all the years I ever knew
    Those finer ones I spent with you

    I would give everything I own
    Give up my life, my heart, my home
    I would give everything I own
    Just to have you back again

    You taught me how to cry
    I don't know why, just don't know why
    You told those lies to me
    You set me free, set me free

    Of all the years I ever knew
    Those finer ones I spent with you

    I would give everything I own
    Give up my life, my heart, my home
    I would give everything I own
    Just to have you back again
    Just to hold you once again

    If there's someone you know
    That won't let you go
    And is taking it all for granted
    You may lose them one day
    Someone take them away
    And you don't hear a word they say

    I would give everything I own
    Give up my life, my heart, my home
    I would give everything I own
    Just to have you back again


    Use Me
    Waking up beside you
    Felt a slap that made you cry
    Nowhere else to hide those
    Dirty little thoughts of mine

    No angel trying to love you, no way
    I wouldn't put that by your side
    I ain't, I ain't above you, no
    I let my morals take a slide

    When you know it's over
    Why then waste my time, yeah
    When you know it's over
    Don't tell me it's just one more mountain to climb

    Use me
    Use me like you found the time
    Use me
    Use me 'cause tonight you're mine

    No angel trying to love you, no way
    I wouldn't put that by your side
    I ain't, I ain't above you, no
    I let my morals take a slide

    When you know it's over
    Why then waste my time, yeah
    When you know it's over
    Don't tell me it's just one more mountain to climb

    Use me
    Use me like you found the time
    Use me
    Use me 'cause tonight you're mine

    Use me
    Use me like you found the time
    Use me
    Use me 'cause tonight you're mine

    Use me
    Use me 'cause tonight you're mine
    Use me
    Use me 'cause you've found the time

    Use me
    Use me 'cause tonight you're mine
    Use me
    Use me like you found the time

    Use me
    Use me 'cause tonight you're mine
    Use me
    Use me like you found the time

    Use me
    Use me 'cause tonight you're mine

    Love Is Cold (You Were Never No Good)
    you were never no good (x4)

    oh no...
    you say that love is wrong
    'cause I know that love is strong
    when you get it from some they say
    that love is just thrown away
    did they ever love you my way

    you were never no good (x4)

    oh no...
    someone is gonna pay
    for taking my heart away
    if it's love that you want to show
    how am I supposed to know
    in my way

    you were never no good (x20)

    did you say that love is wrong
    you showed you were weak from the strong
    you keep leaving me to feel
    that wicked emotion you steal
    you don't understand
    that you can not have love in your hand

    Le titre original est " Don't Go Joe", Love Is Cold (You Were Never No Good) est la B-side du 45t " Do You Really Want To Hurt Me "




    Mystery Boy
    Ooh mystery boy
    Ooh mystery boy

    Ooh, it's too sad to point the finger
    I told the boy to look at me
    But what you say it never lingers
    It's not what you say, but what you see
    Boy look at me
    I couldn't look no better see

    Ooh mystery boy
    Ooh mystery boy

    It's too sad that love would sting you
    You told the girl that it would be
    A kind of love that's deep within you
    A boy's a boy, but did they say he'd be
    For eternity?
    Or just a mystery

    Ooh mystery boy
    Ooh mystery boy
    Ooh mystery boy
    Ooh mystery boy

    Mystery boy
    ooh
    ooh
    Mystery Mystery Mystery boy

    It's too sad to point the finger
    I told the boy to look at me
    It's too sad that love might sting you
    You told the girl that it would be
    Some kind of love that's deep within you
    Some dream that's hard to see

    I've got this nasty camera

    If you're left feeling lonely
    One is the place to go

    With things I cannot see
    And now I've heard the drum track
    You're just a basic enemy

    A promise you can't see
    But with your devil camera
    You take your chance with me

    Now we're passing strangers
    Who knows what we'll be
    Tried to re-arrange us
    Who would shake your effigy

    Colour By Numbers
    When I looked in your eyes
    Felt the spirit of man
    Demanding more than just a smile
    Took a chance for a while
    Speaking in tongues
    That float us down rivers
    The past will remind us

    Of colours we chose

    When I told you those lies
    Felt the spirit of love
    Demanding more than comprimise
    Took a chance for a while
    Speaking in tongues
    That float us down rivers
    The past will remind us

    Of colours we chose

    Some people say that the way that we live
    Is out of this place
    And some people say that the way that we live
    Is blinded by fate

    Of colours we chose

    Colour By Numbers devait apparaitre dans l'album du même nom mais fut hélas abandonné en B-side de Victims et Miss Me Blind.




    Melting Pot

    Take a pinch of white man
    Wrap him up in black skin
    Add a touch of blue blood
    And a little bitty bit of red Indian boy
    Oh like a Curly Latin kinkies
    Oh Lordy, Lordy, mixed with yellow Chinkees, yeah
    You know you lump it all together
    And you got a recipe for a get along scene
    Oh what a beautiful dream
    If it could only come true, you know, you know

    What we need is a great big melting pot
    Big enough enough enough to take
    The world and all its got
    And keep it stirring for
    A hundred years or more
    And turn out coffee coloured people by the score

    Rabbis and the friars
    Vishnus and the gurus
    We got the Beatles or the Sun God
    Well it really doesn't matter
    What religion you choose
    And be thankful little Mrs. Graceful
    You know that livin' could be tasteful
    We should all get together in a lovin machine
    I think I'll call up the queen
    It' s only fair that she knows, you know, you know

    What we need is a great big melting pot
    Big enough enough enough to take
    The world and all its got
    And keep it stirring for
    A hundred years or more
    And turn out coffee coloured people by the score

    Coffee coloured people
    Coffee coloured people
    Coffee coloured people by the score

    la version originale est signé BLUE MINK en 1969! C'est une des chansons favorites de George qu'il inclua au final de son concert avec Culture Club en 1983 "a kiss across the ocean tour"!



    Don't Go Down That Street
    Don't go down that street
    In those shoes that squeak
    'Cause I get afraid that you might not come home
    Careful how you speak
    When you're on the street
    'Cause they've gone and broken every telephone

    Don't go down that street, no no no
    Don't go down that street, no no no
    Don't go down that street

    Socchi e ikuna

    Don't go down that street
    Where the brave boys meet
    'Cause I'm chicken feed when they're on their own
    Don't get in that car
    Things might go too far
    Sono kuruma ni noruna

    Don't go down that street, no no no
    Don't go down that street, no no no
    Don't go down that street

    From Luxury To Heartache
    Luxury and heartache
    Oh yeah
    Oh luxury and heartache
    Oh yeah

    I won't be coming home tomorrow
    Nobody there to catch my tears
    I won't be leaving tears of sorrow anymore
    I've played that game for so many years

    If I cry, will you catch my fall
    Do you want me to be the same
    If I cry, will you catch my fall
    Am I playing the loser's game?

    From luxury to heartache
    Such a long way to find that you were mourning
    From luxury to heartache
    Such a long way you gave me little warning

    She will be there to give you children, yes she will
    She will be there to make you sing, sing, sing
    I won't be standing in the shadows anymore
    I learned to cover up my pain

    If I cry will you catch my fall
    Do you want me to be the same
    If I cry will you catch my fall
    Am I playing the loser's game?

    From luxury to heartache
    Such a long way to find that you were mourning
    From luxury to heartache
    Such a long way you gave me no warning

    Gave me love
    Yes, you gave your love to me
    You gave me love
    But it's not enough for me

    Oh luxury
    Ain't that easy to find
    In this heart of mine

    I won't learn
    Oh luxury

    Oh yeah
    But all you give me is pain

    Again and again
    Luxury is sweet and so cool

    If I cry will you catch my fall
    Do you want things to be the same
    If I cry will you catch my fall
    Am I playing the loser's game?

    From luxury to heartache
    Such a long way to find that you were mourning
    From luxury to heartache
    Such a long way you gave me no warning

    From luxury to heartache
    Such a long way to find that you were mourning
    From luxury to heartache
    Such a long way you gave me, gave me no warning
