Legendary artists Peter Murphy and Boy George joined forces in late 2024 for the release of the gorgeous orchestral single ‘Let The Flowers Grow’. Produced by Youth (Pink Floyd, Killing Joke, The Orb, Paul McCartney, etc), it saw both singers deliver a powerful message of acceptance and hope. Its initial premise about George’s personal acceptance of being gay took a more expansive and universal scope as the song developed, its lyrics extending beyond sexuality and embracing race, gender, creed and religion.
A new remix of ‘Let The Flowers Grow’ by the Brighton-based group Juno Reactor is available from today. Centred around founder member Ben Watkins, a musician renowned for his ability to fuse electronic, global and orchestral symphonic styles, the epic quality of his remix is typical of his approach.
The original version of the song proved so popular with fans that it was added to Murphy’s acclaimed new album ‘Silver Shade’ as a bonus track. Just voted the no. 2 Album of 2025 by Vive Le Rock magazine in the UK, ‘Silver Shade’ is available to stream HERE and can be purchased via Bandcamp HERE.
