Boy George has announced a new single, "My God" as the second single from his comeback album This Is What I Do, which marked his first top 40 album since 1987's Sold.
"'My God' is a celebration of faith and the tale of a man who lost faith and found it," said Boy George. "It could be me - but it might be you!"
While a full music video will accompany the single in due course, the release will also include a cover of Lana Del Rey's "Video Games". "Video Games" is a very unusual pop song," he explained. "It reminds me so much of "The Crying Game" and "Blue Velvet". I also adore Lana Del Rey."
