COMMUNITY The Official Yacht Rock/80's Pop/Rock Thread

Not to be like pop-up video or anything but this song has an interesting story to it. Boy George and the Jamaican dude in the band were secretly dating but dude was in the closet because of his family and culture so there was a lot of tension in the band because of it. If you know that all the lyrics take on a whole different meaning.

Boy George was basically outing the dude on a hit record.


The other bandmates stated it was one of the reasons they broke up. Pretty much too much drama.

Culture Club was da GOAT back in the day!
 
My moms had this on vinyl and played it until I fuckin hated it... But it pretty much can't be denied.

 
Technically this don't count as it was released on December 27 of '79 but, fuck it, shits close enough.
