- Dido covers Smalltown Boy by Bronski Beat in a busy Chris Evans Breakfast studio! The song features on one of the first albums she bought as a 13-year old (the other album was by Pet Shop Boys!)
Remembering how this song was initially released when it was still uncomfortable for the gay to be a lonesome soul in small neighbourhoods, yet the lyrics can equally be akin to anyone who is in the situation of being an ‘outsider’ in a community, whatever their persuasion. A true warrior of his time, Jimmy, and this tribute fits like a glove ! 🙏🏼💯👌🏼🔥🔥🔥🌹
The original is pretty near untouchable, but she absolutely smashed that.
I always thought this song was uncoverable, but she absolutely nailed it! It gives me goosebumps! Thank you so much, Dido!
What a talented person she is.
She sang this beautifully...I wasn't expecting it to be this good.
I like the mellow quality in her voice. This version is terrific and really compliments the original by Bronski Beat.. Dido is some singer.
omg i never thought I’d ever hear anyone sing this song and give me goose bumps other than Jimmi Sommerville wow 😮
Brilliant cover!
Gosh i missed her so much <3
Class. Just class.
It’s taken me many many years to really appreciate that song, the lyrics and the incredible voice of Jimmy Summerville but as a cover Dido did the original proud; just brilliant. ❤
Unreal. Just learned this on acoustic and decided to search for covers - this really is awesome, her voice is perfect ...
Dido is absolutely ethereal, her voice always sends me goosebumps. One of the largest diamonds in the crown of British music - the best in the world in my opinion.
The wonderful voice of Dido singing one of the best songs ever = Sure Brilliance! Love it.
Dido's soothing voice, the acoustics. This is such a beautiful rendition. Dido is a one of a kind and just incredible musician.
Her voice melts my heart.
Can't think of many artists who could perform such an iconic song without trashing it...But Dido manages to pull it off...
The total commitment in her personal performance is amazing. Have so much love & respect for Dido🙌
Normally I can't stand covers, even if they are my talented artists, but this.... Just wonderful!
Her voice will always make me melt. I love her
