Shoot the Dog
Are any British radio stations actually playing this track?It got a play on Radio 1 about a week ago but i havent heard it since,which must mean its been banned.Basically I think that the whole worlds media are gone insane for what is quite an amateurish track with the sole purpose of reviving George Micheals flagging career in music.I saw an interview on Tonight with Trevor Mc Donald with him last night and he spouted a load of bullshite about how he felt that if he was dying in a year from a political related cause he would feel bad he hadnt said anything.Yeah,right.If he actually gave a toss about the war on Iraq that may be planned shouldnt all the proceeds go to an Iraqi charity,or perhaps held in an account for use in aid for Iraqis during any upcoming war?Its a great video but he has no intention of provoking a debate as such-his intentions are purely to make something controversial to get in the papers and get noticed and in turn save his career.He most likely loves the fact nobody plays the song-it will only get people to go out and buy the single to hear what the fuss is about.The press campaign against him is counter productive-controversy is proven to increase sales.But to be fair hes right not to release it in the USA.A good businessman doesnt make a million records with an anti american theme and sell perhaps 50,000 of all shipped CDs.No1 is that stupid.
So,what are your opinions? |

I think he made a controversial video to cover up the fact that the song is utter shite.

George Michael Is up his own arse.
I love the way he comes up with these controversial videos all the time, as if anyone cares what he thinks anymore. His time as past. His early stuff after Wham was superb, much better than the crap he puts out now. Having said that, I did chuckle slightly at the video. |

When I hear the song, I think of George Bush dancing to it. Cheers me up, anyway.
