Ladies and Gentlemen: Best Of

Product Information

Alison Bellach from The Daily Vault gave the album an A− and wrote that "the collection is amazing" and that she was "pleased to note that the album included "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me", a duet with Elton John recorded for the Duets album", but she complained about "the version of "I Want Your Sex" that was chosen" because according to her "the original was something I could laugh at or snicker about" and the chosen version "doesn't even afford the listener a standard melody. Careless Whisper" is the single version, " A Different Corner" was remixed for this compilation, "Fantasy" is the original 1990 version (not the "Fantasy 98" remix which appeared on the 'Outside' singles in the same period). Michael cited Blige's record company president for pulling the track after Michael's arrest for committing a lewd act. Records that aren't in picture sleeves will either be in a company sleeve or a generic plain sleeve.

Ladies And Gentlemen charts this journey, from his duets with pop elite such as Aretha Franklin ("I Knew You Waiting (For Me)") and Elton John ("Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me"), to dance floor classics such as "Too Funky" and "Fastlove" and bleak, evocative numbers such as "Jesus To A Child" and "A Different Corner".

I Want Your Sex" is presented as "Part II – Brass in Love" only, without the more widely publicized "Part I – Lust" section and " Monkey", which was included on the US and Japanese editions, is presented as the single version remixed by Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis in the US edition.To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. It is a departure from George's previous style, so be prepared for a slightly dark and melancholy feel to this album, as it is a tribute to his lover who sadly died too young. Included is George's first solo outing, 'Careless Whisper', alongside material from his 'Faith', 'Listen without Prejudice' and 'Older' albums. This compilation does NOT feature any material from Wham, although 'Careless Whisper', which was originally released as his first solo single, is included. There were rumours that Blige's label was uncomfortable with Michael being gay, but this is contradicted by Blige's embracing of her large gay fan base.
