The “Squeeze Me Boy George Tour” epitomizes this musical perspective as it brings together two prime examples of these seemingly conflicting ideas.
Boy George is a song stylist with the temerity to let his voice be as large as his headpiece, building a career with snappy hooks from “Karma Chameleon” and “I’ll Tumble 4 Ya” to the classic crooning of “The Crying Game.” He has taken on Broadway and reggae with aplomb and has consistently proven that while style will get you coverage, it’s talent that ensures you remain.
Squeeze has illuminated that second point in spades. A pop band in the truest sense, with the songwriting right jab-and-left hook combo that is Glenn Tilbrook and Chris Difford, they’ve recorded a catalog of songs you know and love but may not always be able to place as theirs; from “Cool for Cats” and “Up the Junction” to the instantly recognizable “Pulling Mussels (From the Shell)” and “Black Coffee in Bed.”
These headliners have nothing to prove but will still convert you to renewed devotion.
7:30 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 22, Walt Disney Theater, Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts, $49.50- $485.50.
