Great talent. He shared some of his life, love the honesty. It's not about gay or straight. It's about being different and not always excepted. We all can relate to this song one way or another. But most of all great beat!! Bronski BEAT....
Truly don't care about sexual persuasion, its about the music, this is is a classic and very important to me, and I am straight as they come. BEAUTIFUL
@ajdolphin7 i first heard this lovely man sing in a council flat in london many years ago. bronski beat . all on the dole. struggling to get gigs. a few months later on totp. i was so happy for him
What I like to refer to as a 'Tingle Tune' - It makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up every time I hear it. This remix is superb. Straight or Gay - it makes no difference who you are. I'm straight, but danced like a fool to this many, many times. It's pure class.
Pure Jimmy . . . Yep 25 years since I was at the Brixton Academy when I first saw BB live, they were pure electronic HiNRG and buzzzing, this tune is exactly the same and credit to MaximusVNV. Cool.
this is awesome that he can express his feelingz in a great song that will live 4ever....no matter it will always have an impact in my life with great memoriez..life is short and goes by so fast....it was just yesterday........
I DJ'ed clubs from the early to mid 80's and have about 500 LP's,lots extended mixes.All I need is a good amp,and some stacks(speakers),and I'm ready to do 'old school raves'. I live in a college town,I really need to drop a few bucks on some equipment.
I like to think that homophobic people, people who repress their feelings, who use their energy to be mean and live against gay people are actually the ones who have it the worst. It is such a good feeling to feel free with yourself and the others. It's much harder and wearing to hate someone than to accept them
yep i was out there when this was out there/ and after this and a few years and more and now being with the person i love for 27 years ! this song still rocks.
Just love Bronski Beat, the album Age Of Consent was the first album i ever bought still play it to death now! although i did replace the vinyl version with CD
Wow!! I'm listening to it all now, but i'm writing this after listening to the 1st 30 secs!!! Brilliant!!! you have kept in 'tune' with the beauty of the song!!! The intro.. .haunting, memorable like the origianl!!
"You leave in the morning With everything you own in a little black case Alone on the platform The wind and the rain On a sad and lonely face Mother will never understand Why you had to leave For the love that you need "♥
Im strate and the amount of times i have had a brilliant tim to this ,,, gay or strate ,, bout time this world got a grip !! you are what you are rite??, so party on folks :)
close your eyes, relax the mind, feel the soul, let your body go....this is the real meaning of life....now breath...open your eyes.....inhale....repeat.
