Boy George – Sold (Canada 12″)

BURNING THE GROUND EXCLUSIVE 1987

A. Front

“Sold” was the third single to be released from the debut solo album of the same name by English singer-songwriter Boy George. Like the previous singles from the album “Sold” did well in many European countries but was ignored in America this may be due in part to the fact that George was prohibited by US authorities from travelling to the United States for several years because of his British drug charges. He was therefore unable to be in America to help promote the album and it’s singles. The single debuted on the UK singles chart on July 18, 1987 peaking at #24.

The b-side “Are You Too Afraid?” was produced and co-written by Culture Club band mate Roy Hay the track does not appear on the album. The “Go Go Mix” of “Everything I Own” is the same mix that appears on the US 12″ single titled 12″ Remix. This version is remixed by Freddy Bastone.
