@keithbateson3139 I am working on a version of this myself with a great young singer so have been listening to at least 10 versions on youtube. Yours and the Dido version are my favourites by far. Thanks for doing it.
Absolutely brilliant version maybe the best cover on you tube ..not a easy song to sing with the range jimmy has in his voice.. outstanding well done you 👏
Thats about my 7th listen for pleasure. I can hit Jimmys high ‘cry boys’ depending on how much i smoked that week🤣 I can sing the whole song but im still never sure if its my true voice. Here you use yours and its soulful and true. I pray youre still knocking them out 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
This is one of my all time favorite songs. Before now, I could only listen to the original by Bronski Beat. It came out in ‘84 when I was 18 and my big brother was pretty much living this song. It still brings tears to my eyes. I’m by no means a violent person but the only person I’ve ever slugged was saying mean things about my brother. She never did it again. At least, not in front of me. My brother has gone to live this incredible life and I honestly can’t be more proud of him! This beautiful song always brings back memories. You’re the first to do it justice! Thank you
Whys it always got to be about coming out though ..absolutely love this song and straight am I not allowed to enjoy it ..groundbreaking song enjoyed by all equally ❤
@@FrancoBegbieT2 this song is beautiful and it doesn’t mean you have to be gay to enjoy it or understand it. For me, it reflects a time in my life which was very painful and brings meaning to a meaningless moment. To someone else it could one their favorite dance songs. We all have different ways of enjoying a great piece of music.

Не так давно, я оказался на месте того отца (из оригинального клипа) Эта песня как никогда передаёт , - рваные нити между отцом и сыном_ Hi is Novosibirsk
@@keithbateson3139 May I ask u something: Do you have a similar story to the “smalltown boy” in the song? I mean, I'm just asking because I hear a lot of emotion in your voice - and well, it doesn't have to be because you've experienced something similar - but It's - let's say - striking...
