George Michael’s unreleased songs reportedly make up full three albums, but will the late singer’s fans ever get to hear them? A furious debate is splitting George Michael’s fans and friends, after a “lost” song shared by George’s boyfriend caused an uproar.

The Mirror reports that days after George Michael’s death, Fadi Fawaz, George’s boyfriend in recent years, took to Twitter to share a link to an unreleased song called “This Kind Of Love”. The song, produced by Sir Elton John, was recorded during the 90’s but was never officially released.

“This Kind Of Love” was uploaded to YouTube back in November, but resurfaced this week thanks to Fadi Fawaz’s tweet. The lyrics present a very touching love song, like many of George Michael’s tracks.

“Don’t have to be so scared, don’t have to hide what you can, you just have to believe in this kind of love.

Everybody’s telling me that these are dangerous times for you and me, can’t you see baby?”

The song was originally part of an album called Trojan Souls, that George had been working on during the 90’s. The album was going to feature famous guest vocalists, such as Stevie Wonder and Janet Jackson, but with George Michael being a perfectionist, he eventually scrapped the whole project.

The tweet linking to George Michael’s unreleased song from that album, posted by Fadi Fawaz, was eventually deleted, after it had sparked a major controversy. The reaction storm on Twitter involved fans, friends, and even Andrew Ridgeley, George Michael’s partner in music duo Wham!.
