| Boy George as Jesus Loves You, This was a "collective" George launched in 1989 for his new label and the music remains, in my opinion, his most sophisticated work. At heart, it was a sort of "world dance" project, made in a good period for George, as he'd discovered Hare Krishna and seemed calm, though it was also the high point of song writing. So who knows? Maybe George can pick up once again 20 years later for 2009 .
After The Love - was the first single. It was released on October 23, 1989, I remember reading a review in something like Melody Maker that said "After The Love By Jesus Loves You is a song with so much lush, that when you play it, rain would pour from your ceiling". I so loved reading that about After The Love.
Jesus Loves You After The Love:
That label was called More Protein and I don't need to tell you how it got its name. meaning is from "Sperm" Let's just say George has a salty sense of humor.The label ran from 1989 to 2005. The final Jesus Loves You single was recorded for "Love Your Brother. So back to the More Protein single saga.
Generations Of Love, was the second single from Jesus Loves You Released on June 4, 1990 (UK & Europe) Generations of Love was a political statement, smooth and bass heavy, with a warm, sweet accordion ribboned through it.
Generations Of Love- (Review From Melody Maker) Generations Of Love - is a briidung deep blue master piece if a song In feel it li,e a mantra mesmeric and generous built on shuffling rhythms and repetitious ,funky dubbed out bass. It hangs in a room the way smoke does,absorbing attention like a dream,occupying rather than diverting. Theres an indefinable warmth to this record. They key to success is the almost tangible presence of boy George. He's in excellent voice here-George just seems to go on getting better with age. - lamenting the state of the world, from generalities to specifics and u know he means every word of it. There more intensity in this performance that any other in the course of his recorded career. "Can you feel it -my generations of love" he ask" and when he singing it , yes you can. Generations of love is a force thats impossible to resit, Why Even try?"
Generations Of Love - (Review From The Face )- A truly superb record record- under the guise of Jesus Loves You which should put him back at the top of the tree, Mixed by paul oakenfold 7 toasting by McKinky, this is a slinky seduction of a song. It's delicously understated & shows off the breathy vocals of the BOY to rare perfection. Candidate for Single Of The Year, no less.
One On One- was the third single from Jesus Loves You released on November 5, 1990.
One On On One (Review From Melody Maker) - A classy return for Boy George , with a bottom heavy, soulful groove that will either be massive or disappear without a trace- . George has a welcome added huskiness in his voice which along with the tasteful instrumentation here, easily make s up for the trite lyric. The fact that the chorus sound so familiar either indicates a faulty memory on the reviewers a part or a possible No. 1.
One On One Massive Attack Remix (Review From Melody Maker) - Not content with producing some of the freshest sounds for years. Massive attack keep just remixing. Check the excursion on Jesus Loves You One On One a Culture clash for the nineties. In a word: Massive«
Bow Down Mister(Review From Melody Maker) - was the fourth single from Jesus Loves You and was released on February 11, 1991.
Bow Down Mister (Review From Melody Maker)- One person who's resolutely and daringly unpredictable isn't a dance mode these days is Boy George. "Bow Down Mister" from Jesus Loves You (More Protein) is his latest offering and true to form it's unique. How soon is it before we see George in Jesus Loves You in the charts again? Who can say? But the way things are going on a global level these days I'm thankful somebody loves me. Blessed be!
Bow Down Mister (Review From The Face) Immediately acquire, listen to & love the new Jesus Loves You disc Bow Down Mister. A song that is pure spiritual. Strung around a Hare Krishna mantra & a touch of Indian folk(!) this is More Protein at its best!±
An album, credited to Boy George in the US and as Jesus Loves You in the UK , was called The Martyr Mantras. It also featured what would become a true house classic, with a Krishna-loving folk tune, Bow Down Mister, that morphed into an Indian dance pop classic. I love it.
  
The Martyr Mantras (Review From Melody Maker) - The best LP George O" Dowd has done since Colour By Numbers maybe even better. No Gimmicks, 100% dance music from the soul. The BOY has definitely grown up.
