It's good that for this year's Comic Relief single they've turned to a comedy record again. Wait, it's not? Oh dear.

So George Michael's version of New Order's True Faith has 'leaked'. And brilliantly he's sung the whole thing through a vocoder, very slowly. The result is, we imagine, what the inside of George's head sounds like at around 3AM every night. It's like an aural blowback (make up your own Hampstead Heath jokes).

Comments on YouTube haven't been too kind...

"george michael has been stuffed into a dalek!"

"omg he has destroyed the fucking song, sweet god almighty what did he do"

"He sounds like Sparky's magic piano"

And those are the milder ones.

Still, it's all for a good cause. And we're sure he's tried his best. It's no Stonk though, is it?

We don't think this is the official video...

Ah, that's better...
