It's really nice to see Jimmy Somerville looking so relaxed and so happy. Utterly brilliant singer and such a great mind for music. Himself and the Reverend Richard Coles were legendary.
I love his voice , amazing . I’m straight and I use to get a lot grief for loving his music. But man , beautiful music has no borders when it comes to your ears. To many people let the world, dictate what is good music is to them. If you really like something as a teen. And ten twenty years later you don’t. Then you probably didn’t really like it in the first place. I can’t really think of a song I liked as a kid that I still don’t love today. I’ll love bronski beat until I die!!! Thank God for that voice!!
Bronski Beat had so much guts in the 80's not hide who they really were. Not like some others of the era who made millions and portrayed and false persona. Go Jimmy!!!
I met jimmy way back in the 90s and he was a top bloke, blown away by how tiny he was lol but great guy n musician created many anthems of the 80's that bring back great memories. RIP Steve Bronski
@@jaykaye7025 I'm sure because some people thought she should be really only into black straight males instead. I am glad Seven was not deterred from loving fabulous Jimmy and his music.
Good to see jimmy Somerville so relaxed and happy loved him singing dont leave me this way and you were cracking in the 80s and still today aswell love your energy aswell and your voice brilliant
This song takes me back ...thanks jimmy for a great song...im str8 but im absolutely against violence against gays and lesbians...i was bullied at school...i hate any kind of bullying
So fascinating and exciting to get to know this precious human being, as humble as he is brillant, authentic and talented, a rare person, such as, one does not often meet 👍❤️👍🤩
@@bwydI have known that for quite some time now, but I wondered for years after buying "hundreds & thousands" Another great example is a live version of "Heavens above" from 1987.
+steevo62 Well he has you can tell from the video clips they showed, really liked all his stuff he has done with: The Communards + Bronski Beat and his solo stuff
Jimmy has aged gracefully or maybe he hasn't aged much ,jimmy if you ever read this your an icon for all genders, love you so much,you lovely brave man,❤❤
fufufoofoo - are you kidding??? He was/is a HUGE gay rights advocate, one of the very first to be out and proud - never hid who he is, never cowed by gay bashing and homophobia
lol he is normal, and yeah everyone I thought knew what smalltown boy was about, good job we had artists like him because it was a pretty grim time to be gay in the 80s.
Jimmy is the ultimate coolest warrior ! I can't express how much admiration I have for him, he's history and History will tell you so in years...people easily forget the battle after victory or so even when the struggle stills on.
