memories

Heh, reading this article brought back memories of so many awful, awful songs --Charlie The Wonder Dog 07:00, 27 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

noo they're awesome omg I'm starting to think the tussin went to my head but I've been groovin to them all morning

Love is Love

Just curious why the song "Love is Love" (From the OST- "Electric Dreams") is not mentioned in here.

Drug use

George was not using drugs with money from his new-found fame in 1984. The drug use started in 1985.

Boy George and Sam Butcher

Where is Boy George among the 'members'? Does he/she/it has another name? Who is Sam Butcher among the 'members'?

Last year, Culture Club came back together. Boy George and Roy Hay, who played guitar, declined to reform with the band. CC got a replacement singer (Sam Butcher) and replacement guitarist (Phil Pickett, who sang backup and played keyboards with the band in the 80's.)

This Way Up

According to Absolute Radio's Forgotton 80s, John Robertson Reid of Nightcrawlers was the lead singer of Culture Club spin-off This Way Up with Roy Hay. Is this true? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.154.168.11 (talk) 10:39, 1 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed, this is true.

Joe Hepperle (me) deleted "Legal /Personal Issues" section

Somehow, I got logged-out before I deleted the section, so it only shows my IP 71.221.249.215

This section contained no "Legal /Personal Issues" of Culture Club (The subject of this article). There were two items about Boy George which happened long after his departure from CC, and one item about Mikey Craig. None of the three were "Legal /Personal Issues" of Culture Club.

The information is already existing on Boy George's and Mikey Craig's pages respectively. It does not belong here. Joe Hepperle (talk) 20:21, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
