COLD SHOULDER (ORIGINAL LYRIC DEMO)

[Cicilo1983]

Hard to believe they didn't stick with that version. It's so haunting, beautifully arranged and heartfelt. It sounds like vintage Culture Club. The album version was okay, but this is brilliant.

[nerdgirl4boygeorge]

Amazing - thanks again for this!

[rdangelo713]

This version is very emotionally stirring and a bit reminiscent of Victims...but maybe it's just the strings.

[koshenko]

i have never heard this version!! thank you!! LOVE IT!!! XX

[kbee]

so so beautiful!

i wonder why this version wasn't included on the album? it seems so much more authentic some how. so much more passionate.

[MADACT16]

Beautiful song sung with real soul by a very beautiful man!

[ramasbaz]

so great, it makes you wish you'd be in a twisted situation just to appriciate it even more...

frankie my dearest thank you..xxx

[shaunmk]

thanks 4 sharing..lovely vocals..xxxxxx

[boygeorgeinmyheart]

I'm sure people who buy the rubbish songs in the chart these days if they hear boy George songs they will regret every penny they spend on nowadays songs.

[boygeorgeinmyheart]

what can I say, no words can express my feeling, boy George voice takes me to places that I can't describe, I love this song very much, I'm so sad, it only reached no.42 in the chart (unfair), why?? It is very powerful song, lyrically and vocally.

I prefer this version, the voice of George in this version is sad and romantic and he sings it from the bottom of his heart, I wish that it will be re released.

[faizulina]

"I'm working so hard to be the normal man"...really touch my heart...thanks frankie for this great video...love it...

[evanmonaco]

yeah..this is too slow. The producers did a good job on the track.

[jadedcreature]

its a song drenched in melancholy vocally and lyrically, using his fragmented memories, complex imagery and conflicting feelings to illustrate boys( or any persons) mental state during a romantic breakup up/tumult..its not supposed to be peppy!!

[jadedcreature]

and i will venture to say this is one of his most beautiful songs(this version ).... the vocal and lyric are filled with so much passion and pathos...so incredibly moving..a masterpiece...

[frankieshane]

agreed

[THEBEASTOFOLD]

My god,what a beautiful song! You have got to keep me informed when the day comes that these songs are released!!!!

[tragedyqueen1]

that was amazing, somehow alot more powerful than the single version. love it x

[frankieshane]

I agree. MOVING... Thanks for UR comment!

[fiona333]

Sorry, but I prefer the album version. This is too slow, The released one is more peppy.

[jeffrey978]

I originally heard this version prior to the album release on a fan website called Global Culture. It was a website done by the wife of roy. I always thought that this should have been the version that was released. Always wanted to hear it again, thanks for the video!

[NaurucolD]

lovely!!!... than you Frankie, this song touch with the sound & the Georgie´s Voice.

[Jovi138]

Ohhh my god! This version is much much better than the one released in the CC re-union album "Don't mind if i do"...it makes the album a little less than perfect la...

[thedudetoendalldudes]

This is it...the shivers...this is very boy george and should never have been watered down in the release version...

[frankieshane]

Exactly. I'm sure G was pressured by the other members of CC

[nerdgirl4boygeorge]

Amazing - this version is sooooo much better. It gives me shivers! Thank you so much for this! :)

[frankieshane]

UR welcome

[jadedcreature]

it leaves me weak...its one of the most beautiful songs and vocals ive ever heard..

[Whisper2u2]

It took my breath away...

[frankieshane]

It should have been on the LP this way. The one one the L:sucked!

[IsaMS]

No Comment...simply beautiful, as usual, FFMT...thank you Frankie for making this...

[bclanton76]

Dang, I have been home from work about 30 minutes and have listened to this song about 15 times. LOL, I absolutely love it.

[frankieshane]

Glad you like it. I love it as well, far better than the released one!

[buddypb]

Thanks for this. Why on earth did they bugger it about? Lovely strings.

[zeutwins]

I prefer this version .

very good demo

[bclanton76]

WOW!!! Good job, this song is one of my favorites and to sit on the front row at a concert and see him sing this song feels like he is singing ONLY to you. Frankie do you have a "cop" of this version?

[frankieshane]

Naturally, how'd ya think I make these vids, my friend?

[SandraMeirelles]
