This Is Not Real Love

"This Is Not Real Love" is a song by English singer-songwriter George Michael, released as the second single from his second greatest hits album, Twenty Five. The single features Mutya Buena, the then ex-Sugababes member and was released on 6 November 2006. Due to the busy work schedules of both Michael and Buena, no video for the song was made. The song was also featured in a remixed form on Buena's solo debut album Real Girl. The song peaked in 2006 at number fifteen in the United Kingdom. On 25 March 2008, it was released in the United States and reached number eight on the Hot Dance Club Songs chart. It sold 10,000 units in Italy.[1]
