timothy1976's Album Review for Patience
""
bit of everything
is it any good?:
well "patience" is a good album and after hearing it several times a true masterpiece to me,understanding the beats,its lyrics abd george michael's newer style
the 2004 album is a collection of songs from a couple of years like 2002's 'shoot the dog' and 'freeek'(not released in the album within the united states).
in the united states 12 songs of the 14 on the album were released concerning some politicially incorrect opinions stated in some of the songs of the album.
this album is based and written dedicated to michael's relationship with his current partner of 8 years.
what genre?:
this album has a bit of every style in pop imaginable i think.
'amazing' has dance pop for instance as 'round here' has beatle like pop as 'precious box' resembles house.basically most of the album is pop.
any hung ups?:
to my opinion some somber ones were included although,like the title song 'patience','john and elvis are dead','my american angel' but all in all it is worth the buy,great music!

he would surpass ABBA'S total of 10.5 million and even michael jackson's 12 million singles sales in britain and almost tie it with madonna's total whose are 14 million,but his total sales are only counted as a solo artist
nothing to be ashamed of as even the beatles aren't number 1 in singles sales there,the biggest singles seller in britain is cliff richard with an unsurpassed 21 million.
george further ranks as britains 10th richest musician( 2003-2004 readings) with an amassed personal fortune said of between at least 115 million dollars(around 65 million british pounds) to over 200 million dollars( little over 100 million pounds) in assets,real estate and currency.
george owns several homes all over the world,one in texas and one ofcourse in his country in the capital,london.
