Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Friday, July 31, 2026

Boy George has withdrawn from the West End Jesus Christ Superstar revival just days before he was set to appear in the role of King Herod, apparently as a result of the former Culture Club singer's recent release of a pro-Israel song that disputes the charge of genocide and calls pro-Palestine supporters "sheep." Boy George is the opposite of the late George Michael ("Wham!") who anonymously gave away millions of dollars in charity -- including Palestinians -- or Roger Waters ("Pink Floyd") who is risking imprisonment in the UK for denouncing Israel's ethnic cleansing in Gaza and the West Bank. To be on the wrong side of history is forever; see stories of Judas Iscariot, Oswald Mosely, George Wallace, or Andrew Cuomo for more information.

Boy George: "These people are sheep."

Boy George - Generations of Love (Oakenfold Mix) 1990

I don't know much but I know what I feel
There's too many people fighting, tied to the wheel
I don't know much but I know what I see
There's too many people crying washed out to sea

And there's much more we can say
And there's much more we can do
And there's much more we can learn
Generations of love

I don't know you but you know what I am
Hey, I don't need redemption or no government plan
No big AIDS sensation no 28 clause
The end of apartheid, no message of war

The Jew and the Gentile, the back and the gay
The lost and the futile, they've all got something to say
The African nation, the sword of Islam
The rebels in China, the Sikhs and the Tams

The house of our Father, the volumes of guilt
The luck of the Irish, the blood that we've spilt
The angels and martyrs, the lovers and saints
The sisters of mercy, the brothers of pain

Hi RLR:

Thanks for that song, I forgot about that one.

And I saw Culture Club too. Original percussionist fantastic.

Now compare his 1990 resistance song to this 1985 dystopia song: Siouxsie and the Banshees

"Lifting" and hypocrisy all at once.

Now Boy George's tattered career lies in dust.
