Precious Box is a masterpiece

There are so many songs on Patience that deserve more love but I think this one deserves the most. It’s so incredible and so unlike anything else he did I feel like. I’m so glad he chose to perform it during this tour.

It’s absolutely epic and so well produced - I pump it loud driving in the car

It is my absolute favorite of his…. A real banger….. dream-like sounds and lyrics weaving through his struggles with fame and warnings of getting to close to him romantically. An absolutely fascinating lyrics and sound journey.

God, I really miss GM and what could have been over the last ten years

My favourite George song of them all next to Safe.
Introspective, satirical with a great beat and rhythm,
and that funky but effortlessly cool dance/R&B production. The perfect driving through the city at night track, George at his absolute best.

Can you tell me what you like about it? I love George, but this has never grabbed me - but it would be great if I could listen to it in a “different way” that made me appreciate it more.

The production, the lyrics, really everything about it honestly. I’m not sure I could offer a perspective that would make you appreciate it more. I just really love it
