The collection of 28 songs (29 songs are included on the European and Australian release) are separated into two halves, with each CD of the double set containing music of a particular theme and mood. The first CD, titled “For the Heart”, predominantly contains Michael’s hit ballads, while the second CD, “For the Feet”, comprises mostly his popular dance tunes.
Ladies & Gentlemen is notable for containing a large number of compilation tracks and duets that have not previously appeared on a George Michael album, including his US and UK number-one duet with Aretha Franklin, “I Knew You Were Waiting (For Me)”, previously available on Aretha Franklin’s 1986 album Aretha; “Desafinado”, the duet in Portuguese with Brazilian singer Astrud Gilberto; and the Elton John duet “Don’t Let the Sun Go Down on Me”, from John’s 1993 album Duets.
Ladies & Gentlemen was released by Michael through Sony Music Entertainment as a condition of severing contractual ties with the label (Michael departed Sony with a great deal of acrimony and publicity prior to the release of Older in 1996). He would later return to Sony to release his 2004 album Patience, however singles from Older do appear on the album as well.
