The final FINAL show – the fucker…

Yeah, he got me there, I didn’t expect that. The fucker.

Whatever. I think in a little sick way he likes us spending our hard-earned £100 on him (plus travel, of course, which is always about 3-4 times as much, including a place to stay), show after show after show. What’s next? A final final FINAL show in his back yard to show off his new balcony-free wall, for nutcases only?

Well, I’m not going to this one. Guess I’ll be going to the 2nd to last one then. That’ll be something to tell the grandchildren I’ll never have… just as well, I don’t think they’d be impressed. “Why didn’t you go to the FINAL one then?” “Well, you see, because the wanker made sure we got expensive tickets for the supposedly final one before announcing the actual final one.” “Was this something he did a lot?” “Yes, but he caught me off-guard, for once.”

Anyway, rant over. Good thing is, all the clips of these new songs and new stage will be on YouTube in rotten quality that won’t capture him on his good side at all times, which is some consolation

George announces one last show in Copenhagen

We are excited to report that George Michael will play the last concert of his two-year worldwide tour at Copenhagen’s Parken Stadium on August 30th. This special performance, titled The Final One, will allow George to say thank you to his loyal fans, not only in Scandinavia, but also across Europe. For this show, fans will be treated to songs that George has not yet performed in Denmark, along with additional, unique staging!

My Current Favourite Song

This is so beautiful and touching.

ARMY OF ONE

Was it really this hard
To be in your skin
To want what you wanted
Knowing you couldn’t win
Was it really this long
The road that you walked
Before you laid down
The lines around you were chalked

So Godspeed my friend
May you never be lonely again
And the enemy from whom
You always have run
Was yourself
And your army of one

You wish there was something
That you could have done
No tape to rewind and
There never was a square one
Life’s been unkind
And people are cruel
It’s just another show
You need to go beyond it
Don’t be a fool

So Godspeed my friend…

Lay down and rest
We all know you deserve it
Lay down and sleep for a while
And I know there is comin’
Some kind of change in the weather
But I’ll never see you again

Godspeed my friend
This is where you and I end
And the enemy from whom
You always have run
Was yourself and your army of one

No more shall you have to run
From yourself and your army of one
I will always remember you
I will always remember you
