"I like to think that life is a balance so I have some plans to try and do things to help gay children.
"I felt it was really what I want to do as an artist. As an artist I'm at the stage where I'm not interested or excited by repeating former successes."
To beef up the gay-theme, Michael is to share the musician duties on the album with "either gay or gay-friendly artists".
He said, "It will be a gay collective on which some of the records are sung by myself, some by other artists, possibly unknown ones, but there will be collaborations with a lot of artists".
