Pleased to hear he's releasing new music again. Would prefer it to be an original composition, but never mind. True Faith is a good song, and anyway it's for Comic Relief.

Re: George Michael to cover New Order
Wow! True Faith is a pretty great song, and I'm also glad and heartened that George is getting out of his marijuana stupor to do something, anything, and for a good cause, even better. Looking forward to this. I like George, New Order, and "True Faith", so this is cool to hear, thanks.

Re: George Michael to cover New Order
Apparently Jonathan Ross and Simon Cowell went to see him after his prison release for an idea they had about a new filmed ITV interview/special. Ross said that George played him a new song which sounded like a smash hit dance track.
I really hope we hear some new music from him before the year is out.

Re: George Michael to cover New Order
Just heard it.
The slow version/lounge concept is brilliant on this song.
But Auto-tune? George Micheal? He's got an amazing natural voice! WTH does he need AUTO-TUNE?!

What a shame about the autotune! Ruined a good song.

Re: George Michael to cover New Order
of course he doesnt need autotune. its not just used to correct vocals. its used alot of time for effect.

Re: George Michael to cover New Order
ok I just heard it on youtube,your right, in this case the use of it ruins what is a gorgeous tune.
what was he thinking? vocally its not even the usual autotune effect, its alot more warped sounding.
still better than the DM one though IMO.

@Glenn: Yep, my bad.. this is not simple auto-tune, but a full-blown vocoder usage..

Re: George Michael to cover New Order
Well, I listened to it again... Yes, I think he shouldn't use vocoders and fx effects for his voice, his vocal is fantastic without any fx...
The version is very good.
