I Want Your Sex

Get your mind out of the gutter, it's a George Michael song. And apparently, George Michael is going to be performing at the IPL opening ceremony, along with other acts like Snow Patrol (with a revised single "Fielding Balls") and the Three Tenors.

Not to mention Clint Eastwood and Morgan Freeman making an appearance during the ceremony. Rumour is, Freeman will never appear in person, but everyone will hear a God-like voice broadcast over the speakers.

I'm more interested in George Michael. Crazy guy, I wonder what song he'll sing. Maybe he'll sing Faith. AB would be delighted.

Don't be disgusted. It's not his fault he looks like this. At least he can sing.

I'm surprised AB didn't volunteer to sing himself. Can't have George Michael stealing his thunder!

AB's a terrible singer. You can tell by looking at his face.

Yet he still felt obliged to release a single. Have you heard it? It's called "Show them who you are," and every time I hear it I feel so motivated to STAY SHARP!!

I heard it once and never intend to listen to it again. AB is on crack.

He wanted to shoot a music video for the song, too.

Well, to be fair, it is entirely possible that the last 8 seconds are pure gold, I've never listened past that stage as I don't want it to appear in my recently played list.

Somehow the odds aren't looking good, although I will happily stand corrected by anyone who either a) has no shame or b) never has anyone look at their recently played playlist

Amy said...

Just discard the entire song as some silly fantasy of his that he can sing. Then you won't have to worry about it at all.

I have heard whispers of an album. Ideal Christmas gift.

I think Dan Nicholl, who writes Graeme Smith's tour diary on sport.iafrica.com sums it up best. Graeme went to investigate what sounded like a cat giving birth to a porcupine, but it was just AB singing in the shower.

With Mark Boucher watching?

richie_141 said...

I'd imagine so. I think Mark Boucher desperately wants an AB love triangle, but AB doesn't need him anymore, now that he has his own website he doesn't need Bouch to pass on messages from adoring fans. Mark even offered to pass on some 'keeping tips, but AB shunned all of his advances.

Mark has taken to curling up in the fetal position and crying himself to sleep at night.

Amy said...

Sad story. I sympathise with Boucher. AB's a bastard in disguise. He hides behind his religious exterior but we all know he's gloating because everyone apparently loves him more and he is more talented than anyone else on the team.

No wonder he wants to be the best batsman in the world.

richie_141 said...

Yeah. So now AB makes a point to cuddle Harris and Dale whenever Bouch is around. It makes Mark's heart hurt.

Esra_Star said...

Plus AB makes it clear at every press conference that he doesn't want to follow in Bouch's shoes. It's enough to send Bouch crying to his bff Jacques.

richie_141 said...

Yeah, don't let AB's love and peace and positivity and Jesus fool you, he knows how to rip a guy's heart out.

Amy said...

Maybe that's the theory behind his motto. He keeps his knives sharp so he can use them to stab at your heart.

That said he's just given Bouch the old face grab and hug routine for stumping Ferguson! Didn't realise Jebus and his little black book taught you to be so sly..
