Hello everyone,
Just got a promo copy of Trigger's single (release date
9th
September?), Chameleon (Shed your Skin), Horny and
Unshed mixes (Cat AECP02)
'Hmm' is all I can really say, but is
this the actual single version
to be released, or just something to get the DJ's interested?
Quite dancy, quite ambient. Could
do quite well, but maybe a
club number....
("Hmm?" Much kinder than my initial reaction... AG)
Where is all
the promotion that really should be going on a
couple of weeks before a new release, especially for a new
group with a high
profile backer.
We'll see....
Also picked up the LP version of Red Hot and Dance and am
listening to it as I write!!!
Good Stuff...
See ya
Helz

Amanda,
What
has happened to Jo at Ægæn? I went to the artist
section & she isn't there anymore. Any clues?
(I asked about manager
about her recently, but no word
back as yet. I'll keep you posted. AG)
I hope this address helps everyone who is looking
for
imports: http://www.ab-cd.com
I have ordered several things from CDNow, but this is
where they get their imports.
Every import that I have ordered
from them, CDNow, has AB-Cd's return address.
I went to their web address today & I
found a new album
that has GM's Star People '97 included on it. They seem to
have all of the imports that everyone is looking
for, so
hopefully they will have the new ones too.
Yogfest sounded like loads of fun, even the getting lost
part.
Getting lost isn't so bad if you have someone along,
by yourself is another story. I would have loved to have
been along just
to see all of the looks that ya'll got going
down the road with your lipstick signs.
Maybe Yogfest 2 will be on the East
Coast next time &
hopefully I will be able to attend. I sounded like sooo much
fun.
(My sister is screaming for a
New York Yogfest too...maybe
we'll all have to get together there if he tours. AG)
Loads of love!!!
Tina

Hey Everyone!
I just wanted to let everyone know that VH-1 is having
8 days of
the 80's this week. So far I haven't seen George or Wham! yet,
but I'm waiting. :)
Also, if you're on AOL, go
to keyword VH1 and you can download
a 2.5MB video of Star People from the Unplugged. I don't know if
you can get it through
their web site or not, but if you have the
chance to get it, it makes a nice addtion to the hard drive. ;)

Hi Amanda and
All other yog fans :))
I have a little question and i need some qualified feedback. I am
sure someone in the list knows the
answer. I started to create
my GM site in july. (http://hem1.passagen.se/eos). Due to lack
off time I haven´t made any
drastic changes:( . Anyway I will do
so next month and I´try to make my site living (always under
construction). My QUESTION
is if I can put into my site mp3
files with GM music??? If that should offend anyone and if that
would be legal. Plizzz give
me your feedback. I will not put such
files until I am 100% sure everything is ok with other fans, aegean
and ofcourse GM :))
otherwise I´ll put them 2 a basket. I know
that some GM sites have .ra files with GM´s music but maybe
mp3 quality is 2
good?
just another yog-fan Encia

(How legal
it is I don't know, but I think it would be a great idea.

hello

Is George Michael really dating Geri (the sexy spice)?
Thanks,

(I honestly have
no idea. And I have no intention of asking

Hey
Amanda and Yoggers!
In YOGMAEL #213 it said:
>"'Strangest Thing 97' will be released on an EP including 'You
>have
been Loved', 'Father Figure' and 'Praying For Time'. The
>EP will be called'You Have Been Loved'. It will be released mid

in UK and Europe.
>You are going to hate this next piece of news, take a deep

America or Canada. This has
>nothing to do with George as you may of guessed."
We all know there are some GM USA
fans that will want a
copy of "You Have Been Loved EP" right away [like on the
release date]. :o)
Who do you
know in UK [not too busy with school, lives
near a reasonably-priced [up-to-date] music store, and a
post office] that will be
helpful in taking prepaid[with money
order] orders of the EP, for us unfortunate Yoggies in USA??? :o)
Is there someone in
UK that is willing to go to a store as soon
as it is released to purchase the EP, pack the CD & mail[first
class] it????
While
on the subject, is there anyone in UK that knows how
much[£] the postage is for a CD that packed & mailed [first
class]
to USA?
Anyone want to guess a £ price of the CD EP? Or maybe
someone could ask[closer to the release date] the buyer at
reasonably-priced
[up-to-date] music store, what the EP will
be retailing before it is released, so we'll all know what price
range we will be
looking at.
Anyone know what record company will be producing the CD EP?
(A Virgin/Aegean co-production I imagine. AG)
Cheerio!

Hello Amanda!
Just to let you know that Virgin UK are now
quoting 8th
September for the release of You Have Been Loved.....but I
wouldn't be surprised to see it slip back by another
week.
Sorry!
(Shirlie did say the middle of the month, so I'm not surprised,
I was waiting for the latest official date.
AG)
I also wanted to let you know that those wonderful people at
Capital Radio are already giving George's new single
fairly
good rotation. They are playing the remix of The Strangest
Thing. It's a terrific remix (I wonder if it's George's own
mix?)
and should do well in the clubs. He has pitched the vocals
quite high, and the whole effect is vaguely reminiscent (to
my
ears at least) of the Pet Shop Boys, with a little of
Queen's You Don't Fool Me thrown in! I'll be interested to
hear other
opinions in due course.
One thing is starting to bother me, and I hesitate to write
this in case I come across as a real
party pooper!! Many
Yogmaelers seem to want to voice their dissatisfaction over
the release of new singles to AEGEAN. It's
worth
remembering that George's music is officially released by
Virgin and DreamWorks, and they are the people to whom
complaints
should be directed. The impression that I got
from Virgin here in the UK is that most of the decisions
come from George
himself. It's no good bawling out Shirlie or
Elliott over matters that they can't control, and we don't want
to end up
spoiling the very special relationship that exists
between Yogmael and AEGEAN, do we?!
(Relationship is still in good
standing, don't worry, my sanity
is long gone though. GH)
Hope I haven't caused offense to anyone; that's not my
intention,
I'm just voicing my feelings.........
(Which invariably will get you in trouble... AG)
Love Bev.

Hello Amanda,
I trust that your vacation
was as enjoyable and relaxing as could
be?
(You can tell you've had a truly good vacation when you need a
week to
recover, and I am just now back to my regular self. AG)
As you know, i am a loyal fan of George since his earliest days
in
WHAM!. in fact i can't go more than one day without listening
to his music. even if i don't listen i hum a lot of his songs.
anyways
my question is..
Why couldn't George and Fony negotiate a deal instead of taking
the disagreement to court? I'm sure Fony was
willing to make
some concessions with what George was asking.
(No they weren't. He spent some time trying to negotitate, he
was
perfectly willing to chuck the court case up until pretty
much the last minute. AG)
Take care,
Andrew

Hello Amanda and everyone,
I
have Andrew Ridgeley's Son of Albert CD and Cassette for
sale if anyone is needing it just contact me (ok it was not the
best
album but Shake Hardcore is kind of cool). Anyway, I
will have Waltz Away Dreaming pictures on my web site next
week for
anyone who has not seen the video it is a good
chance to at least see what it looked like. Oh also I will have
a pic of GM
kissing Geri from Spice Girls from the Top of the
Pops when she introduced him before they played the video.
Oh anyone in
California or near San Francisco??? I will be
there for a week September 13th-21st and would be cool to
meet some of you in
CA.
Cheers! Brent http://194.239.140.98/brent/

Hi.
Ok
I've been reading yogmael now for a couple
of months and i'm a big GM :) fan I was wondering if their is
an actual list of
recordings that he has done with other artists?
A friend of mine told me a few years back that he did an
album for Liza
Minneli is that true ? also he's done vocals
with jody watley which i'm sure you already know and various
others that i can't
think of at the moment .but i would like to
expand myGM collection...
(I don't think the Liza thing ever happened, but it
was being
planned. He did one track on Jody's self-titiled album. There
is of course I Knew You Were Waiting with Aretha.
There are
also the Elton collaborations -- Wrap Her Up, Nikita, Don't Let
the Sun -- as well as George's contribution to the
Two Rooms
tribute with Tonight. He produced a little for David Cassidy also.
I'm sure I'm missing a few things, but this is
all I can recall
off the top of my head. AG)
If any one wants to chat or help me find online where all of these
GM chat
rooms are it would be much appreciated.. thanks and
keep up the good work..mknight-at-cyberspc.mb.ca

Hi there,
I've added a questionnaire thingie to
my site if any or all of u
have time to fill it out. Since we all like to chat about George's
appearance, I thought it would
be fun to do a questionnaire
about it. I have noticed that Now Magazine really likes to diss
his present image. Although, they
do it in a nice way. Anyway..
It's at
http://www.geocities.com/SunsetStrip/Stage/6101/gossip.html
If u would like to
add a question to it, you have until the end of
the week... No pressure there.. :)
Since I don't want to bother Aegean too too
much, I haven't
decided wheither or not to send the results to them. It's all in
good fun, so... please have some... :O)
Make
sure u hit reload on my questionnaire page otherwise u
will get the old form. I had to change it, cos it wasn't working...
Luv

Does
Ralphie (issue 214) know George that well, that he knows
more than anyone else in the world, George's sexuality? So
what he's
been in gay bars - so have I, and I am married, and
not gay, gay bars are usually more fun.
To say that Kathy Yeung was
'set-up' with George by Sony is
totally stupid - unless George is a liar, since he said that she
was his girlfriend on many
occasions, and talks about her in
Bare. Oh and now Aegean, or whoever has set George up with
Geri to 'straighten him up' and
he's 'experimenting with
hetrosexuality' give us a break!! Perhaps he's worried George
may be straight and spoil his fantasy?
George has said he
has had girlfriends in the past and recently - if he's also had
boyfriends well, that's his business, but
unless George says
any different, could we please stop talking about his sexual
preferences - if we're going to talk rubbish
that is!!!

Hello Amanda love of my internet (arent you

Do you think Andy is gonna get a healthy cut of the Wham!

surf board or somthin'?
Hmm, I wonder if Keren or him pays on a date? I think Andy
should come back however on ANY revised
tracks! Oh, and
wasn't The Final supposed to be the best of?????????????
(Never I guess the best of without NLTSITL!!) Best be
some
new tracks!! I dunno, its always fun hearing Andy making
those high pitched noises in the background! Agree?

he's likely been tagging
