This thread has been started because of an idea a few of us had and which some of us, such as myself, Kathy LAFD and Petra decided to go a stage further with and come on here and ask you to post FIVE songs that Michael has not sung on stage, rarely sings on stage or, has not sung for a number of years, which you would love to hear him singing at a concert. We know and understand, everyone has their own favourites and some are probably those that Michael has in his set list at present, like Steel Bars, When A Man Loves A Woman, but we ask you to think carefully about your FIVE songs and to try and pick those that he seldom sings but which YOU love.
What we hope to achieve is a list, of the TOP 10 songs that YOU will have chosen, which we can present to Michael and ask him to give consideration to possibly including, at least, one of the songs on his set list during 2015 as it being a song voted on by his fans. We have asked Gail, moderator of the forum, for permission to do this and also if she would be willing to pass our list to Michael and she believes a good idea and has agreed to pass to Michael on our behalf. Have to make it very clear, whilst list will be passed to Michael, it gives no guarantee you will hear one of your songs at a concert you go to, nor does it guarantee, Michael will feel it relevant, to include any of the songs voted on, in his 2015 set list.
We hope it lets Michael see how much we care about his music and how much we love it all. Also how much we appreciate the way Michael involves his audience, US, so much in all of his shows and how much we all thank him for doing so. Have also to say hope it lets him see how much fun we all have coming together on this forum which is a part of Michael's website and for those that do not know, this was something Michael himself asked be included when this website was set up. The facility of a forum is available on these sites but the great majority of celebrities do not give this to their fans i.e they don't pay for it, as Michael does, for us.
We are asking that you have your FIVE songs posted on this thread by 1st December so, before the Christmas rush starts, we are able to draw up the TOP 10 list. It will also give Gail the opportunity to send to Michael before 2015 arrives. Only one post, containing five songs, is allowed per person.
In advance, we want to thank everyone who comes onto this thread, for your support is more than appreciated and we also hope you have FUN in thinking up your FIVE songs. We also hope, during 2015, Michael sings all your favourites and each and everyone of you has a concert, as near your doorstep as can be, so that you get to a show next year
Picture was taken on 20th May, 2014 at Cliff's Pavilion, Southend-on-Sea, UK and please feel free to use if you wish to.

Thanks for voting Martha!! And thank you Josh for returning and adding your last 2 songs!!

I think that it's great that Michael is asking the fans for input on the song selections. I would love it if Michael could do some of his ol' school stuff from his Michael Bolton or BlackJack albums. Please dust them off and perform them, I think the fans would enjoying hearing them. So, although you may not choose any of these classics, they are my favorites (it's sick how many times I've played these : -), if you fans haven't heard these songs, please check them out they're freakin' awesome and they freakin' rock!!! Peace.
Heart of Stone

Call My Name
I can't live without your love
Love me to tonight
Hi Cattet and thanks so much for coming in and voting and firstly, you have named 6 songs whereas the limit is 5 so, if you have no objection, I will only take your first 5 and register them for the votes....hope that is okay ?? I also am assuming your song you have called "I Can't Live Without Your Love" is in fact "Without Your Love" from Blackjack ???
Secondly Michael has not asked us to do this, in fact I doubt if he knows we are doing it, but once voting is closed and results announced Gail will send him link into this thread so that he can look over everything and then, obviously, it is entirely up to him whether he considers our request to include one of the songs voted on in his set list for 2015.....no guarantees and that is stated in the description at top of this page.
Thanks again for coming in with your votes, very much appreciated !!! :)
Sylvia. Your wee Scottish friend.

HI Sylvia,
No worries. Apologizes for choosing more than five songs**grin** No worries if Michael didn't ask for this, hopefully he/his agent will welcome the suggestions. Yes, it's fine for you to choose "Without your love (Blackjack), it's one of my favorite oldies. Thank's for creating a way to let fan voice their favorite MB songs :-)
