Boy George deserves cred for this great song of protest. And the song is just fab' I really liked the music he did in this period and a few years coming.
Had this single on vinyl as a mixed-up kid. Never understood the full gravity of it but it still resonated with me even then. Years down the line and it’s power is still there. Major love and respect to Boy George for giving a voice to those disenfranchised by Clause 28. Growing up knowing your heart and mind isn’t naturally seeking what schools and society are teaching as “correct” was so isolating. The will of the state should never outweigh the fabric of who it’s citizens are.
I just discovered this song today by Boy George and honestly I'm surprised at how good this song is lol. I mostly listened to him when he was still in Culture club and didn't really follow his Solo stuff but after checking out few of his solo songs now I have to say he actually had some great solo songs too that sounds really different to when he was still in Culture Club. He is actually a versatile singer kinda underrated by people though but I always thought he had such a great distinctive voice one of my favourite male singers of all time!
Margaret Thatcher herself told Conservative conference in 1987: ‘Children who need to be taught to respect traditional moral values are being taught that they have an inalienable right to be gay.’ Clause 28 - as it became known - specified that no local authority should ‘intentionally promote homosexuality or publish material with the intention of promoting homosexuality’ nor ‘promote the teaching in any maintained. school the acceptability of homosexuality as a pretended family relationship’.
@@Negostrike My country (🇧🇷) is actually pretty tolerant since the 2010s - I mean, a lot of other countries just got better when it comes to this subject at that same decade too. The issue is that there are some right-wing groups (regular right-wing and far-right to be more specific, i NEVER saw libertarians into this bs) that think any neutral or positive inclusive school material will "make their kids gay" lol I mean, they have some 'broken clock' moments: a few contents were indeed too graphic. But the rest? Only cute little stories (that don't even have kissing illustrations) and simple informative material 🤷🏻♀️ they overthink about everything, it's ridiculous - but people are slowly realizing that an orientation is not a "choice made after watching certain cartoons or reading certain books" but, indeed, an innate part of anyone's self! Now when it comes to Russia and theocratic countries... yea, their governors are really backwards and want their people to stay thinking like them even by force.
I only came across this song recently (I was still only 8 years old at the time when Clause 28 - also known as Section 28 - became law on 24th May 1988). The homophobic legislation was repealed in Scotland on Wednesday 21st June 2000 and England, Wales and (I think) Northern Ireland followed suit on Tuesday 18th November 2003. We well and truly have come along way since but there's much more to be done. It's also disgusting that in 13 countries alone we can be sentenced to death today in 2021 just for being who we are!
And there's a sample from Public Enemy at the beginning!!! (Flavor Flav's "Yeahhh booyyyy!!" from the 1988 album "It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back".) The entire track already is a preview of Boy George's interest in electronic dance music (which he went on to spread as a DJ for the following 20 years).

First piece of legislation the new Scottish Parliament jettisoned in 2000 was the hated Clause 28. England and Wales 3 years later. Gay marriage throughout the U.K. and Ireland would have been simply unthinkable in 1988. We’ve come a long in terms of tolerance and accepting of others
Cette chanson se trouvait également sur une compilation de house music, une des premières sorties, que j'avais achetée. A le réécouter aujourd'hui je trouve qu'il relève plus de la latin freestyle en vogue dans les années 80. A moins qu'il s'agissait d'un remix.
Jessica Capurro wow, if not for family, he would have..read Take it like a man...He had an assistant that lived with and she would stay up all night by him when he was drugged out to make sure he did not vomit and aspirate into his lungs...just one of the horror stories of his addiction
"the aim of this government is to make everyone as miserable as possible" i think the they are talking about the left government of Brazil I support Jair Bolsonaro

Boy George was..is...and ever will be the BEST!!!

I have this CD from more than 30 years ago.

This is today's Russia, Brazil, and many others still.
Clause 28 kept going until 2003!!!! Crazy

I can see, Margaret was beloved a lot in Britain...
Kisses from Italy!

This (in context) is one of his best songs-vocally, lyrically and musically- Did it do well?
+Ross Coyle alas it didn't do very well in the charts in the UK but it's a good policital song.
It was a top 20 hit un various european countries, italy no17
It didn't do well in the charts at the time for obvious reasons

This kinda looks like Buffalo Stance by Neenah Cherry. Song is cool though...
Actually this song and video were released in 1988 and Buffalo Stance was released in 1989, so YES, Buffalo Stance is a copy of this one.
Correct! No Clause 28 release date June 1988 / Buffalo Stance release date November 1988
So 90s
Came out in 88 but its close
Mais um poket show bug house super participação Dimmy
How different this edit to the acid house mix that he performed and released later... Or am I wrong with this?
🎹🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
15 years later this was repealed and changed
Ber L I’m pretty certain it was 15 years
@@charlottedeacon7356 guess my math was wrong my mistake but I was close
Luv his new hits, he is very very sexy n this, mmmm.....keep it up BG
Where do we get this version?

Is the producer of this song really Michael Cretu?
The lady is not returning
I feel like I've defeated the final boss level.
This video game has sequels
I’m not your average beat boy %
No Gender Critical Theory
She decriminalised homosexuality in 1967 (as an mp )
Nak tá em português pohakkkkkk
I like another version rather than this

I just download the
Jesus loves me CD to my phone today: )
maybe you are thinking of the CD version that's on Jesus loves you
bye bye Margaret
"This one's for all the faeces consumers out there!"

Who is that lady,in the beginning of the video?
replaced by a clone of her crooked toenail
