referencing Why?, 12", Maxi, 882 014-1
An incredible 7'45 version with wild and dry breaks. Homo pride at its climax, Bronski Beat is the Act Up of pop music. Never a pop band tried to be as out of the closet as activist. While Culture Club was ridiculous and FGTH kinky, Bronski Beat chose the path of social statement. This track brings the Power, within the music, within the words. Jimmy I love you forever.
