Human Nature's 'Here and Now; The Best Of' album wil be available on cassette format from HMV stores from mid-December. The cassetter will cost around $11.
ARIA Chart-watch:
'Here and Now' has maintained it's Number 14 chart position after three weeks in the chart. It debuted at number 12. 'Always Be With You', the first single from the album, is nowhere to be seen in the singles Top 50 but is rumoured to be sitting in the 60's.
Bardot Support:
There's been some controversy online lately the Bardot, as HN's support act, had been given equal stage time as HN. Phil himself cleared this up saying that although Bardot will be given a longer-than-usual support of 45 minutes instead of 20, Human Nature will be the main act with around 90 minutes on stage.

Always Be With You release:
Head on down to your local record store today to pick up a copy or two of the new single 'Always Be With You' which is released today.
Clip Debut:
The long-awaited video clip for 'ABWY' debuted on Rage and Video Hits over the weekend. The clip opens with Toby - the bouncer of a classy dance club - denying acess to well-known Greek adonis Guido Hatsiz. Human Nature dance up a storm inside the club and Guido teaches them some funky dance moves. Phil doubles as the cloak-room attendant, Andrew is a bartender with a very bad hairdo and the 'little man with big hair' Michael steals Guido's comfy couch. Believe me, it makes sense when you watch it.
