The band signed with Virgin Records in the UK, and with Epic Records in the US and released its debut album Kissing To Be Clever in 1982. The single "Do You Really Want to Hurt Me?", reached #1 in a dozen countries around the world, and #2 in the United States. This was followed by "Time (Clock Of The Heart)" (not on the UK LP), which reached the US #2, and "I'll Tumble 4 Ya" which reached US #9. This gave Culture Club the distinction of being the first group since the Beatles to have three Top 10 hits in the US from a debut album.
Their next album, Colour By Numbers was also a huge success. The single "Church Of The Poison Mind" (featuring Helen Terry) became a Top 10 hit, and "Karma Chameleon" became a #1 single in sixteen countries, including the US, where it stayed at #1 for three weeks. It was the best-selling single of the year in the UK, spending six weeks at #1. It stands as the group's biggest hit. "Miss Me Blind" and "It's A Miracle" were Top 5 and Top 20 hits respectively, and "Victims" was another Top 3 UK hit.
George was the main songwriter for the group and as such, also co-wrote Culture Club's contributions to the movie soundtrack Electric Dreams. The two Culture Club songs for the soundtrack , "The Dream" and "Love is Love", were written solely by George and Roy Hay. Moreover, the P. P. Arnold song "Electric Dreams" was credited only to George and Phil Pickett, who also co-wrote "Karma Chameleon". George also had a lead vocal role on the Band Aid single "Do They Know It's Christmas

I would also add "I really want to praise YOU" I would love to hear this whole song written with the old Jonh singing it. [SIGH]
