    Released in 1983, it spent 3 weeks at #1 on the US Billboard Hot 100 in early 1984.

    One of the great lyrics ever:
    "Every day is like survival, I'm your lover, not your rival."

      That and... "Hold on loosely, but don't let go. If you cling too tightly, you're gonna lose control." Same sentiment, I suppose. 😏 It's worked in my 35 year marriage... so far... 😏

    Boy George and Culture Club were a huge cultural phenomenon in the early-mid 80s. He was openly gay & one of the most-widely popular cross dressers in the entertainment industry, across the globe. The. Globe. Listen to their song That's the Way, I'm Only Trying to Help You. That song has so much blues influence and his backup singers have gorgeous gospel voices and harmonies.

    Back in the day the Voices and Icons were Michael Jackson, Prince, Madonna, and this man, "Boy George, " from Culture Club. All of them famous for their "Looks. "

    First, you have to watch the video, which has nothing to do with the lyrics, to get the full Culture Club vibe.
    Second, despite the catchy upbeat vibe, the song is about the volatile relationship he was in at the time with the band’s drummer. “Every day is like survival. You’re my lover, not my rival.” Lots of references to his boyfriend showing different sides, not all good. Changing his colors, so to speak… like a chameleon. “Loving would be easy if your colors were like my dream.” Sometimes he was one person, and other times a different person (different colors).

    Belated Happy Birthday, Dee. Boy George was and interesting person. Either loved him or hated him. Then he kind of became a Snoop Dogg, accepted as a person who was interesting, funny, and had something to say.

    The record stayed at number one for six weeks and became the UK's biggest-selling single of the year 1983, selling 955,000 copies.
    Lead singer Boy George at this moment is appearing in the 22nd UK series of I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here.

    This was such a vibe when this record came out. Culture Club was so different, everyone wanted more. Even if you didn’t understand the lyrics you were singing with them anyway on this song. Btw, I love seeing you and Dee reacting together. You’re a cute couple!😊 Definitely watch the official video when you get a chance because seeing them is part of their appeal, then it will really stay in your head. Epitome of the 80’s!

    His surname is O'Dowd. I'm sure Boy George never boxed, but he came from a big family and many of them boxed, the family had a reputation for being hard.

    Boy George explained in The Billboard Book of #1 Hits by Fred Bronson, "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. Basically, if you aren't true, if you don't act like you feel, then you get Karma-justice, that's nature's way of paying you back."

    I agree totally Chod. I would not intentionally put this song on my turntable but once you hear it on the radio it starts running in your mind as a backdrop to everything. I believe this is the second song in a week that falls in the "catchey" genre. The other, I believe, was an Ace of Base song. Great, as always, to listen with you both. 😄

    It was a hit. Boy George is still a very talented singer/performer. 80s

    They were very popular in the 1980’s but their music never did anything for me. It’s catchy and has a good hook, perfectly suited for the radio. Boy George, the lead singer, was a very popular figure for many years.

      The video really fits Boy George for sure. It’s pronounced with a Kamealion. Ch is “k”. Boy George wore makeup and cross dressed in the 80’s which was completely looked down upon.

    George felt he looked better with make up and he was a beautiful man. But he was a MAN and never claimed or pretended to be anything else but comfortable.

    Never liked this band. And knew Boy George was queer as a $3 bill from day one. Strange enough a lot of girls in my school liked him. Must have been because they had the same eye shadow.
