"Outside" is a song by George Michael, released on Epic Records in 1998. It was released on 19 October 1998 as the lead single from his 1998 greatest hits album ''Ladies & Gentlemen: The Best of George Michael''. ==History== The song was seen as a fine self-deprecating public relations exercise by Michael, as it was the first single since he was arrested for engaging in a lewd act six months earlier by an undercover police officer in the public lavatory of the Will Rogers Memorial Park in Beverly Hills, California - an incident which prompted him to declare his homosexuality, which had been rumoured for some years but never confirmed.〔(Entertainment: George Michael faces $10m lawsuit ), ''BBC News'', September 14, 1999〕 Michael took a swipe at the incident in the lyrics, claiming he wanted an alfresco sex life because he was bored with lovemaking behind closed doors. Reference to the Beverly Hills affair came with the line ''"I'd service the community, but I already have, you see"'' (he was sentenced to 80 hours of community service for the offense) and direct samples of radio reports of his arrest. The song was recorded at Sarm West in London with a string section and arrangement by Andrew Skeet. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Outside (George Michael song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
