    Has anyone else noticed that when you haven't heard a song in 30+ years and then it comes on the radio you can still remember every word. Or is that just me!! It's ok to tell me I'm weird. That's no secret. LOL

      I just listened and watched the video. I was a pre- teen when culture club was huge and didn’t get it. But the song is about addressing LGBGT community, not them, so much as the violence directed towards anyone non-straight. Systemic violence as well as societies violence.

      Yeah, that reminds me of a song coincidence I had one time. My nephew and I were riding over a bay bridge leading into Seaside Heights New Jersey. We had moved out of state 12 years earlier and was just passing through during a road trip. While we were on the bridge I started singing this song "Sooner Or Later" by The Grassroots. He looked over at me as if to say, what makes you sing that song. I said when I used to come here about 20 years ago when I was a kid I always remember hearing that song playing on the loudspeakers on the pier while I was on the beach. After we parked the car right near the boardwalk. Within 5 to 10 minutes after we got there, we went to play one of the wheel games at Lucky Leos. It was a semi indoor sit-down game. So, just after we sat down and started to play the game, my nephew nudges me. I said "what? " With a surprising look in his eyes, he said listen. I was impressed that he recognized the first few notes. I said "WOW!"I told you! They still play that song here! Not only that, but it was also the very first song I believe we heard in the short amount of time we were there. I didn't win anything on the Wheel game but that song was my lotto for the day.

    I was in high school when this song came out, and I didn’t have a good understanding of this song and what it meant at all. It’s only in recent years I’ve come to learn how significant the lyric is, and I’m a bigger fan of his now than ever before. There’s a recent video of him slowing this down and singing, and his smile and tender heart is so touching. Look into it, I think you’ll be surprised! 🌻 And Happy (belated) Birthday! 🎂🎉😊

    None other than Boy George. My late dad who was a straight laced gospel and country singer made the comment that his attire was not to his liking but he said that boy can sing. The song is about the terrible fear of alienation that people have, the fear of standing up for one thing. It's about trying to suck up to everybody per Boy George who was also one of the co-writers.

    Culture Club came out of England.
    Their lead singer was a flamboyant dresser named Boy George.
    Karma Chameleon was released as a single in support of its parent album Colour By Numbers in 1983.
    The song proved to be so popular that it reached #1 on the UK Singles Charts and the US Billboard Hot 100.

    Boy George and the band were awesome, he is a judge/coach on Australian The Voice right now and he still has an awesome voice.

    Love it! I swear I must have been Culture Clubs biggest fan in the 80's. It was during my teenage High School years. Such awesome memories. His voice is just wonderful. Ty!

    Red Gold and Green the colours of the Rastaman. Boy George loved Reggae Music, does anyone know if there is a connection here.

      Not sure if this is true but I’ve read that since the colours red, gold and green are often found on many African flags,they represent the struggle of the people who were fighting for equality, which ties in with the whole meaning of Karma Chameleon. Boy George was fighting to be treated as an equal in his relationship and his life, and uses the struggle for equality of many African people as a way to get the message of equality for everyone - including himself being accepted as a gay male. And he was somewhat into Rastafarianism I believe at that point

    In the 80s & '90s, we had such great music. I think people were happier too. It was so much fun! A funny story (to me) My son At( about eleven ) on Saturdays & Sundays would wake me up in the morning and we'd play DJ, which would last for about 3 hours more or less. This song came to me. I said Culture club & he said do you know who they are? Yes, and because he made a screwed up face, I knew what he was referring to, and what hell does that have to do with all the tea in China?
    Just play it! Well, this was the song. I was kinda dancing around, And maybe he kinda liked it. The funny part was when he came home from school the next day, he told me, Thanks ma, I couldn't get that song out of my head all day long. I laughed my butt off. That's exactly why I liked it was because it was happy sounding and very catchy. It made you dance where ever you were! That's the 80's. Your generation really missed this time in music. It was a blast!

    I've observed my wife moving faster than the speed of light on two occasions. She was sitting beside me in a 100 Mile House pub then she materialized across the room and in her seat a large bat stretched and yawned. The next time was in her parents' home town Paderne, Portugal when the restaurant's chameleon named George turned himself into a ceramic decoration in order to hide in plain sight on the shelf not 6 inches from Lena's ear. When George decided her shoulder would work as as a stepping stone to prevent a moth snack from landing on her plate. She seemed to go through the table and George the chameleon hovered like Wile E. Coyote before dropping to the chair and work out how to swallow the wings. Since the screaming is delayed or deleted, close call stories are much easier to tell. Thank you for listening,
    Anyone know:
    Trooper, We're Here for a Good Time (Not a Long Time) and/or Raise a Little Hell?

    Also worth checking out are "Victims", "It's A Miracle" and "The War Song" by them.

    I don't know why, but ever since I heard this song the first time I've loved it, and later on it became my go-to "feel better" song. I had no idea what they were actually singing about as a kid in 1984, but I always used to put it on the jukebox at the local pizza place in Iowa. XD To this day, it still always cheers me up a bit when I hear it. :)

    Back in the 80s found me living in a German high-rise (me being AD USAF), and the song by Boy George --"Miss Me Blind" used to get me in so much trouble! I listened to it all the time! And at the highest volumes possible! The residents and the police were always knocking on my door telling me to turn it down! That is definitely a song you should react to!

    Man great song and thx for doing a reaction to it. I was born mid 60s and was raised with country music for my parents. Early teens I found a love for Reggae music. But theirs always a group that always comes along that`s different and sticks in your heart forever. This is one of those groups among many others. You may have herd a young girl sing this on the voice I think earlier last year. The lead singer was a judge when she sung her version. Thanks again. Keep it up. Awesome.
