L'album rencontra que tres peu de succès dû au manques de promo certains fait par la maison de disques virgin...
En effet, celle ci se préocuppant beaucoup plus de l'état de santé de Boy George...
George rencontrant de sérieux problemes de drogues depuis la jamaique...
La seances de fotos pour la pochette dut un désastre.... Boy george est tres beau sur la pochette mais il faut savoir qu'il etait à ce moment là, malade comme chien....
La seances fut prise séparément du groupe....
Un 2eme single, après MOVE AWAY au succes certain, toutefois mitigé à l'international, fut GOD THANK U WOMAN...
Le clip fut tourné à la vite, l'entourage craignant que George ne s'effondre d'un instant à l'autre...
Boy george tourna le clip completement shooté à la coke que l'un de ses amis (Ginty) lui envoya dans un boitier de cassette...
Pour ce clip, le réalisateur Steve Barron utilisa un procédé qui superposa le groupe entrain de jouer avec celles de Brigitte Bardot, Raquel Welch et d'autres stars...
GOD THANK U WOMAN fut classé uniquement 31eme dans les charts anglais mais ne fut pas sortis dans l'exagonal... Un flop!!!!
Un 3eme single sortis... GUSTO BLUSTO mais ne remporta aucun succes!
Une sorte de clip est monté si besoin est, avec des images d'archives avec ecrit en gros sur l'écran "GUSTO BLUSTO..." lol!
Ce single ne fut classé dans aucun charts... car le groupe ne fut pas capable d'en faire la promo car Boy george rentra dans un état maladif encore plus intense qu 'auparavant...
Un 4eme single fut nommé : Heaven's Children (anciennement nommé inequality) mais fut tres vite abandonné sur les étageres des projets avortés car le groupe se sépare....
Quelques maquettes furent tout de même envoyées à quelques radio mais AUCUNES n'en voulaient...
Toutefois, FROM LUXURY TO HEARTACHE fut classe dans le top ten anglais et compta parmi les 5 meilleures ventes aux Etats Unis...
Malgré cela, moins d'un million dans le monde furent vendus, soit plusieurs millions de moins que WAKING UP WITH TO THE HOUSE ON FIRE...
Gusto Blusto
Well you tried so hard to change the story
It was love but it was nothing new
Just a question of a moment's glory
For someone to take it all from you
You told me I was such a fool
First you were kind, then you were cruel
You taught me how to break the rules
And I said thank you baby
Gusto Blusto
If your loving is so good
Gusto blusto
I'd do it if I could
Gusto blusto
I'd love you if you would
Gusto blusto
Do it! Do it! Yeah!
Well you think you really have the answer
But I never made a move on you
I don't even get a chance to get what's coming
Baby that ain't all I do
Gusto Blusto
If your loving is so good
Gusto blusto
I wish you understood
Gusto blusto
I'd love you if you would
Gusto blusto
Do it! Do it! Yeah!
I give you good good loving
Sweet memories of you
You gave and taught me nothing new
Thank you baby
Gusto blusto
If your loving is so good
Gusto blusto
I wish you understood
Gusto blusto
I never break the rules
Gusto blusto
Don't you be so cruel
Wanna dance? Don't sit there
Do it now
Heaven's Children
United (I get tired of speaking)
What if you're a lonely boy?
What if you're broken man?
What if you're just tired of speaking?
I live with my heartache, you bet that I do
I'm sad and I'm shaken, I'm empty and so blue
Magical function, I gave it all to you
They say they'll never let you down
United we stand so tall
They say they'll never let you down
United we fall
What if you're a lonely boy?
What if you're a broken man?
What if you're just tired of speaking?
What if you're alone at night?
What if we're all heaven's children?
I grew up in darkness, my enemies few
I gave you my life, it was easy for you
No explanation, this boy has grown up too
They say they'll never let you down
United we stand so tall
They say they'll never let you down
United we fall
I believe the world should always be our standing ground
And I believe the world should hold us close
And spin this great big world around
Don't be scared at night alone
And spin this great big world around
What if you're a lonely boy?
What if you're a broken man?
What if you're just tired of speaking?
What if they break hearts for you?
(And I will never let go)
What if you're intent is true?
(No matter how we control)
What if you're just tired of crying?
(I will never let go, no matter how we control)
Heaven's children
I was young, but still I knew
People were just frightened too
I would talk, they would not hear me
What if you're a lonely boy?
What if you're a broken man?
What if you're just tired of speaking?
I have been a lonely boy
I have been a broken man
I am here and still I'm crying
God Thank You Woman
Woman, thank you thank you
God thank you woman
What we have is something special
Something quite unique
What we have should last forever
Heaven at my feet
I would give the world to you
Or anything you need
There is nothing I won't do
Just promise that you'll never leave
God thank you woman
Thank you thank you
For the joy that you give to me
God thank you woman
Thank you thank you
For the joy that you give to me
In this world you are my pleasure
No one can compete
Happiness is hard to measure
Woman you're so sweet
I would give my heart to you
You're the air I breathe
There is nothing I won't do
Just promise that you'll never leave
God thank you woman
Thank you thank you
For the joy that you give to me
God thank you woman
Thank you thank you
For the joy that you give to me
When I'm alone at night I think of love
Well baby that's alright but it ain't enough
Won't you call me if you need me
I have loved
I would give the world to you
Or anything you need
Oh God thank you woman
Thank you thank you
For the joy that you give to me

MOVE AWAY 11-03-2006
Ce single est tirré du 4eme (et dernier) Album "FROM LUXURY TO HEARTACHE"!!
Le single sort discrètement dans les bacs sans promotion marketing débordante...
Néanmoins, les radio jouent le jeu et le diffusent régulièrement....
Le superbe clip en est certaienement pour quelques choses... courses poursuites entre george et jon (dont la relation devient tres tumultueuses et violentes (verbales et physiques!)...) en voiture.... , scene style romeo & juliette dans un vieux cinéma entre george et une femme au look tres masculin....
Le single se classe timidement dans le top50 français! Il grimpe jusqu'a la 30eme place du top 50 sans jamais monté ensuite....
Il se classe N°7 en ANGLETERRE et N°12 aux ETATS UNIS....
L'AUSTRALIE et l'ITALIE le classe N°10 dans les charts....
MOVE AWAY demeure un succès mais hélas moins performant que dans les débuts du groupe....
Néanmoins et hélas, il demeure le DERNIER succes du groupe dans les années 80....
Move Away
Spirit changed the conversation
Stepping stones across the land
I never wanted to be a hero
I never wanted to be a man
I hurt you darling, I made you cry
I hurt you darling, don't ask me why
Move move move away from me darling
I never said I'd hold your hand
Move move move away from me darling
I never said I'd understand
If I could say this was judgement day
You know I'd be a millionaire
I'm prepared to wear my sorrow
Everywhere we go in town
Ain't no need to beg or borrow
While you're there to drag me down
I hurt you darling, I made you cry
I hurt you darling, don't ask me why
Move move move away from me darling
I never said I'd hold your hand
Move move move away from me darling
I never said I'd understand
If I could say this was judgement day
You know I'd be a millionaire
(Justice right
move away)
I need you so
I can't let go
I hurt you darling, I made you cry
I hurt you darling, don't ask me why
Move move move away from me darling
I never said I'd hold your hand
Move move move away from me darling
I never said I'd understand
If I could say this was judgement day
You know I'd be a millionaire
I never said that I'd hold your hand
Why don't you move?
I never said I'd understand
Why don't you move?

ELECTRIC DREAMS suite et fin.... ET HELEN TERRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 09-03-2006
voila chose faite.....
Concernant HELEN TERRY, Helen a stoppé les tournées avec Culture Club mi-1984, mais elle a continué de faire les choeurs pour les deux autres albums suivants.
Elle continua a aider George par la suite, dans les moments de drogue, et aida plusieures fois à cacher George dans sa maison, loin des médias, de la presse à scandales et de la police. Elle fuma quelques joints avec George mais ne s'adonna jamais à la drogue...
Elle n'eût pas de grande carrière musicale, elle a réalisé un album nommé "Blue Notes" en 1986, qui ne connu pas de succès.
Elle a aussi participé à la chanson de Corey Hart's "It Ain't Enough" en 1989.
Aujourd'hui elle travaille à la télévision (elle fait des documentaires) et est productrice de clips vidéos .
Elle habite en Ecosse et rêve d'avoir le plus beau jardin du pays

In advance of his 2010 European Tour George will perform a set of exclusive intimate shows at Leicester Square Theatre…stripped down, acoustic, unplugged whatever cliché you want to call it this set of exclusive concerts lies bare George as an artist, singer, lyricist and musician – this is simply ‘The Man and his Music’… performing his biggest hits from Culture Club, his solo career, new writing and covers from his own music heroes.
