As a Mom I can't imagine any Parent that stops loving and supporting their child no matter what!!! I pray for this world to wake up and realize everyone is different and that's what we need to embrace!!!! I am 65 yers old and I love Calum and all of his music and I do think God sent an Angel to help change the world!
Yes , but when I was growing up in the 70s I was molested at 10 by my neighbor and my life has been pure hell, in counseling still at 61 but my parents always loved me no matter what.
I love this song!!!!!!!!!❤️ I shared this song with person who was struggling and he cried and it helped changed him ❤️🥰 This really helped express himself TU
I am not gay but I cried and I was really touched by this song and its story. Thank you for siniging this meaningful song and bringing out the messages behind it. ❤💪 I hope there will be more acceptance and supports to gay guys especially from their own families and also from the society.
I am so glad this video came to RU-vid 🙂. I was so badly hoping to go to the Chicago performance for my birthday (my birthday is September 2nd) but unfortunately, my ride was thrown a hardball in life and is unable to take me (I can't drive due to PTSD from a life-threatening wreck). Thankfully these concert videos make me feel like I am there. Just wished I could have met my favorite singer though but maybe next time you are in the states I will have my chance 🤞🏻. Much love to you and be safe for the rest of your tour ❤️
I sat along your left side up against the Curtain Divide for your people and I felt the excitement you all had back there. You couldn't know it but the old boards of the Dancehall floor bounced me up every time someone backstage got excited and did all those jumps. I got to feel your excitement as you did. I was moved by so many of your songs; Jamie, Greg and yourself. I cried for all the people you represented and those you couldn't have known. Tears streamed down my face at this one because the soulmate I lost to the plague was the first man I kissed publicly. As we parted on the platform of Grand Central Station in New York I jumped off the old style train to kiss him goodbye and walked on air for a week. Thank you and Greg for this.
I am so glad you did this. Songwriters get lost in the wash far too often. I admire this young man's body work, but as the mother of a gay young man who didn't tell us until he was 19 because he was afraid of our disapproval, this one hit home the first time I heard Greg sing it (just flattened me).
I was at this show at the Crystal. Thanks for posting this clip. I didn't take any video because I wanted to focus on the performance but I regret not having any video. Now I have this!
I am the father of a 39-year old, a 30-year old, and a 21-year old (one completely hetero, one bi/pan, and one trans)...and, the grandfather to a 16-year old. Plus, I have tons of 'around-the-way-adopted-half-stepchildren' from my many years as an educator, scout leader, tutor, mentor, youth counselor, etc - many of them never had a good home life, a positive male role model, someone to be their cheerleader, and so on. A few of these 'adopted' kids lived with my family, as needed, because they were kicked out of their homes for being part of the LGBTQIA+ umbrella. I cannot wrap my head around how someone can claim to love a child for 15, 16, 17, 18 years, and turn it off over who their child is attracted to/loves. ALL of my children KNOW that I LOVE them, SUPPORT them, and am invested in their HAPPINESS. I have a close, open relationship with each of my children. They have each known, since day one, they can talk with me about anything - there are no topics off the table. If they have questions, they know I will answer them honestly...if I don't know the answer, I will find it. I was the first person my bi and trans child opened up to (I hate the term 'coming out' because everyone should just be who they are). This song made me feel so sad, thinking about all of the kids I know, who were told they had to not be themselves or move out. I can't wait until the day when everyone is accepted for who they are.
my wife lost a brother to AIDS just before drugs could make it possible for him to live a productive life. This song is wonderful. It's so sad that her brother had to live in fear for 35 years before he died just because of who he chose to love. This song is helping society and I'm so glad it's heard.
No one else in this world does you like you, so be true to you and do you well. Calum , like so many others, I also know you have helped many people simply by your words and the you that you are. ❤️❤️
Words put to music sometimes are so much easier to hear abd easier to accept!! A gift of song that opens others hearts!! How beautiful is that! We claim that music is a universal language and it's also a universal way of acceptance of all kinds of. LOVE AND HUMMANITY. YES, MY SON AND YOUR SONS DO Keep kissing boys in the streets there is love and room for us all.
Hi that was a lovely song yes love is all around us even my 20-year old mini I think I've actually missed it never talk badly if I'm in it with me my problem is that I love women but I think and I know there was one buy I fell in love with and I don't know why and I was just passing on the street so anybody days tell me what love is all about I don't know just happened I think this song is great I know it's very popular well done you keep singing the songs and I keep listening and watching thank you for your music
I have a very close friend who I sat down with that's gay. He was sooo afraid to tell his parents so, I took his hand and took him to his parents. I said, "your son has something to tell you." He already knew I loved him no matter what. His parents at first were staring at him. Before that meeting was done they were hugging their son. I cried tears of pure joy and he now has his freedom and peace.
Only one love parents should have for their child is unconditional love. If we agree with our children's lifestyle or not we are not to judge just love.
