“I like making records and plan on doing another one soon. I’m narrowing down my song choices now.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
As you probably know, George seldom writes his own songs, but he’s brilliant at picking good ones, selling over 120 million records in his career.<\/p>\n
As for what he looks for in a song, it HAS to have a great melody, and if the lyrics are also good, then he’s interested.<\/p>\n
“A great lyric along with a great melody is obviously what you’re looking to create.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
So, there WILL be new music, but it’ll be a while before we hear it because he’s still searching for songs.<\/p>\n
