This article has been updated since it was originally published to include the following information.
George Michael talks about “Going to a Town” in the following interview:
The Guardian reviewed “Going to a Town” as:
The King, George Michael, has returned to us, this time in the form of a Rufus Wainwright cover. Going To A Town is a wistful, orchestral anti-American ballad, which manages to tread the fine line between movingly grandiose and enjoyably tacky. This being George, the video features a poorly animated burning crucifix, which turns into a poorly animated giant burning wooden “LOVE”. He continues to be our most ludicrous yet talented pop artist, and long may he reign.

George Michael took to his Twitter account today with a heartfelt thank you to his fans. George referred to himself as the “luckiest man on earth.”
There are no words that can describe how much I owe each and every one of you, so I shall not try. I sat in my sisters house yesterday and..
watched “Symphonica” for the only the second time. I tried to see and hear it as others do.And I saw the luckiest man on earth. So much love
given to one man.So many beautiful moments with family, friends,and all of you. I felt breathless for a moment.
And as the words and music faded one thought played over and over again in my head.If only I had known,way back then,i’d have been one….
seriously happy kid. I love you. All of you…George Michael x
