Boy George - The House That Made Me

[@johnboy4067]

I remember knocking on his mum and dad's door and asking for his autograph, 🤣🤣 loved the 80s things were so much simpler

[@Sean-me4fv]

Back when things were normal

[@carolbotelho5840]

Such wonderful laughter👩‍❤️‍👨🐕🐕

[@twistertruecrime]

I would hate to go back to my childhood home. I would be a total mess. Its taken me 45-50 years to find inner contentment and peace. It would take an absolute fortune to get me near the place . I feel for you Sir.

[@larrypoulton6401]

I was born the year after Boy George and we went to the same secondary school - Eltham Green. He was the year above me but I dont remember him - but maybe played truant a lot. I know he hated school but I loved it. He might remember me as the artistic 14 year old with a moustache :). I lived not far from him and those sets brought back memories of my childhood. The wallpaper was vile, TVs small and adults smoked all the time. He has led a chequered life but I admire him for his personality and peseverance.

[@sandraleonard945]

I always liked boy George and his singing love his voice and songs love ya from texas

[@debbiedillon4066]

I loved your style and your lovely voice in the 80s and I still do.

I love boy George he’s so positive and I love his clothes he puts on and his hats.

[@RuthVizor-rx7ul]

Love George ❤️ love for his mother is obvious x

[@richalderson6069]

The thing I've always loved about George is how despite his massive stardom and success, he obviously cares very much about family and staying true to his roots.

[@richardpowers2313]

Yes, the scenes with his brother, Richard, he is very happy just to be with him. . .

[@leahcar]

His voice, even his speaking voice, is beautiful

[@debrarow1933]

I’ve always thought that also. Just love everything about him ❤️

[@davidr5964]

His mum's book "Cry Salty Tears" is a great read. What a strong woman who suffered under his dad's tyranny. Her love for George is palpable throughout.

[@deborahbouchard5475]

❤ i love his hat's

[@tarotcaba]

This guy is fantastic. He’s talented, smart, humble, and has a great sense of humour. ❤

[@WilliamGregg-dv7hl]

I love the brotherly bond between him and his older brother

[@annnee6818]

Georges brother getting close to tears saying how he worried about their mother choked me up. It's the most helpless feeling ever...

[@Jo-annSamurai3069]

I respect George so much for doing this. I’m a child of the 70’s and grew up in Hackney, East London. I could relate so much to a lot of what George has gone through. Having a very moody angry father. My parents were from Jamaica. The very loud wall paper, brown furniture, and record player Hi fidelity gram. Records made me fascinated with music. Thank you George for just being you. I love George’s giggle and colourful hats. Mum had a large singer sewing machine and would make some of my clothes.

[@richardjames9091]

Thanks so much for the channel. I remember first seeing him on Top of the Pops with my family as a kid and my parents saying is it a man or a woman. I think Culture Club and a few other groups planted the seeds for my lifelong love of Reggae music. It’s not until years later that he’s getting the recognition he deserves. 🏳️‍🌈🪷🕉

[@deborahbouchard5475]

❤ l love how he so honest just himself doesn't try to be someone else. Its like what you see is what you get. Love him. God bless him love to have a cup of coffee with him and just chat with him ❤

Aww that was soo good, very interesting. Thankyou George , we love you sweet. Love your music and hearing you sing. God bless you and carry on.❤❤

George I've always loved u and your talent from day one when u were interdusted to the US. God has been good to u . I know u don't think so. You are soo remarkable . My family came Wales and I understand. I love u and your talent. God will always bless u. I'm also catholic and I love and everything you've gone though. ❤❤❤❤❤❤ you are sooo strong so English. It makes tough!!!!

[@tinabeckel950]

When George said he wanted to be loved it resonated so much. I think that’s all any of us who were known as “weird” or “different” have ever longed for. ❤❤❤ I love him so much … so he has accomplished being loved and millions of people have loved and continue to love him, too.

[@J-9th94]

That first paragraph of your comment, about those of us who were known (and, in my case, bullied) for being weird or different carries such a profound meaning. Thank you for posting those words.

[@goldenlass9488]

This is wonderful! 👏🏻❤

[@juliecarter5118]

So nostalgic to watch , I grew up in the 70's so seeing a lot of the things surrounding boy George brought back memories for me too , the furniture, Jackie magazine , record players and vinyl (still play vinyl)and so much more . Love you George even now , your so funny , charismatic and down to earth 🌎

[@loonylinda]

i agree with all you say.

[@Prieze868]

Lives in the house now I thought his mother still lives there

[@katwiens518]

Absolutely. I'm the same age as George, and his life and my life back then wasn't much different at all. I was the rebellious, boisterous child of a no nonsense father and a seamstress mom. I lived in my own mind and imagination. I loved music and made it my career for a time. In the 80's, my style of clothes, music and life was very similar. I felt a connection and fell in love with Boy George and his music. Matter of fact, I just saw Boy George, Berlin and Howard Jones in concert a couple days ago. I'm here because I've become obsessed with him again. ❤

[@emmalovelock6757]

@@Prieze868 the middle park house they moved out of to the next house on Shooter’s Hill which is where I lived a few doors away & my daughters went to the little school opposite so we’d walk passed everyday & always prayed that I’d get a glimpse & I’d never have had the guts to knock on the door 🫣 ❤

[@emmalovelock6757]

Vinyls are special, the sleeve design & the print meant so much. Sifting through the record boxes ❤ The dust making it crackle a little😆 We had to take it in turns to choose a record & fight over who was going to put the needle on! If there was a song that had a swear word we’d play that bit over & over! Judge Dredd- Up with the Cock record was confiscated 😂🤣😅

[@freddielind5282]

Boy George has the most amazing, warm smile ❤

[@martinfotheringham-booth8777]

Abso-fucking- lutely brilliant. Power to you George 🙏🙏

[@Wearingmycrown]

The reason I loved Boy George in the 70’s is the reason why I still love him. He was so funny, smart, truthful and most of all transparent…somethings never change, he did but not that much and only for the better ❤❤

[@stacyward4309]

No one knew who he was in the 70's. He gained popularity in the early 80's

[@debraweaver6308]

​@@stacyward4309 Right!

[@HorseSaddleRider]

Boy George is TV Gold! He has the courage to be himself and be cheerful. I completely relate to the triggers he experienced when returning to his Irish childhood home. People were only doing their best under difficult circumstances. Go George!

[@staceydouglas757]

I love Boy George. A good soul.

[@lynnh581]

Lived down the road from George in the day. Remember seeing him going up and down, I lived down Shrewsbury Lane, just up the road around the corner from the Bull pub, lived George. They were good days, compared to now, so much has changed. But we lived in the best of times. Fond memories ❤

This documentary touring the house where George lived during his adolescence it's interesting and beautiful. In addition to imagining a bit what it was like to be a teenager in the 70s, fashion, hobbies, music. A great contribution, thanks for sharing.

[@susanrich606]

I still have all my old 45’s! Precious and Few!

[@souldeeva]

I inherited my mothers younger sister’s record player when I was a kid. It looked very much like the one George left carrying. Sadly I no longer have the original record player but I managed to find a similar one a few years ago. I still have all the vinyl that came with my aunts one though! I absolutely lived for music - it was my saviour then and it remains so to this day. Such a powerful trigger to old memories.

Last night I had a dream that I went back to a house we lived in in 1962 to 66, and I was being shown around by the elderly owners, turned the computer on and in 2 mins this came up. Old places where you had a life is like going back in time. Great show!

[@leabelcher9792]

It’s kind of fun to go back in time like that. It makes me think about the house. I lived in when I was a kid and I shared a bedroom with two of my sisters. It was bloody freezing and I used to buy Jackie every week. I think you know that just was the time you know I’m just a few years older than him, but you know you just those are the things you did is so much fun to watch

[@Seajunkie]

This was touching and made me cry. An interesting experience to look Back and BE in the ACTUAL space we grew up in ( I have yet to do this, pictures alone are enough of a trigger) I definitely relate to your dysfunctional family dynamics😞

This was so good. There’s this realness about the whole family it seems, where they are true to themselves and wonderful authenticity and acceptance of who each one is. Love that. I mean, “…I’m fitting a kitchen,” was a moment. Lots of evocative moments throughout, I just enjoy and appreciate Boy George so much.

George should definitely do more of this sort of stuff his personality is fascinating. I remember feeling an outsider as a youngster but for different reasons to George I came from a broken home and just my Mum and no brothers or sisters, only kid in my school from dysfunctional family and was pretty so got bullied at school as I dressed in a way to feel older to protect myself and look for a father figure. Different situation but very similar feelings of feeling an outsider.

[@robyoung9968]

Nice to see his family and his relationship them. It’s not always easy going back home, sometimes the memories can hurt, but can also help heal. Going back home for me personally isn’t anything that I ever want to do. I have been back many times because it was demanded, but now it’s been sold and I never need to return. I remember a sort of panic and anxiety as I drove into town. I’m very happy never to have to go back to that town or that house.
