Bronski Beat - It Ain't Necessarily So

[@clairecassey5880]

The piano and clarinet in this track...bliss.

[@graderesse8281]

I love the part 4:04. The deep piano and clarinet😊

[@Relativity1970]

@@graderesse8281ABSOLUTELY. It is a heavenly sound. It touches my soul.

[@mrdazzler]

It’s a song to play on repeat❤

[@shekhongchan3755]

My most favorite album at all times since its first release. ..mind you i am 72 and i still madly in love with it and Bronski Beat are the most talented and gifted . ❤❤❤

[@shekhongchan3755]

Glad you likes them too.

[@crowhillian58]

I've got Age of Consent on my turntable as I write, the first time I've played it in about 30 years. Omg, what a cracking album, every track is aching with heart and soul!! ❤️

[@rasecleo]

The jazzy sound to this song is absolutely amazing 🔥bronski beat dropped a straight gem 💎

[@peramarkovic7148]

A song from opera Porgy and Bess, written by George Gershwin. Beautiful cover.

[@MBACCR]

The piano solo is sublime. Forty years on, I still can't get enough of it.

[@jacoroux8700]

'84. What a year for pop. this album is right up there. timeless.

[@ewaf88]

A truly sensational version of a classic.

[@vermilliongecko]

My parents heard me playing this when I was a teenager in the 80's, and they immediately introduced me to Paul Robeson, who sang it decades before.

[@zanyzoo6767]

84, when this was released. Walking around London hearing this being played as you past pubs and bars. Young and gay, with the threat of Aids just around the corner. So living, laughing and loving . Fighting for rights yet to be awarded.

I am from the US but I wish I'd been there then!

Great song, one of the most iconic tunes of the 1980s, it's hard to believe it's forty years old. Love the clarinet and piano solos.

As a young kid in the eighties this album got me big time......

[@suzanneburns422]

The first album I ever bought and I was hooked for life !! Loved Bronski Beat/Communards

[@dozog]

bought the CD even before i had the CD player. (so i bought the tape as well.) Never regretted it either, and obviously still playing it on youtube too.

[@spencerstewart6516]

[@TheVinchan]

I bought this album and FGTH first long play together,I'm not English speaker &also not a gay men but truly love both albums specially the age of consent

[@lxworld]

Surely music is music regardless of the sexuality of the creator (s). It is either good or bad? And I say that as a straight male so I have no personal agenda for saying this other than it's something I personally believe. As a kid growing up in the 80's I loved most of the music of Bronski Beat with Jimmy Somerville. For some reason it never seems to date. Good, well produced songs perhaps?

[@shekhongchan3755]

​@@lxworld Same here and been listening to Age of Consent for 40 yrs and never get tired of their most talented music.❤

[@lampelanleena]

The Age of Consent was the first "gay music" record I bought back in 80s ♥️ I listened it on headphones in my childhood home and thought "If mother only knew what kind of songs I am listening..." 😉

[@dozog]

Sooooo relatable. headphones and indulging yourself in the music.

[@cliveboulton]

83, I interviewed at Alan Turing's old UMIST lab, and being gay was still left unsaid.

[@sbh123yt]

It Ain't Necessarily gay music

[@cncmne7404]

Why is it gay? Its jazz mixed with some other stuff.

[@danielrose3434]

@lampelanleena I bet you'd be surprised what parents know about what's going on but are waiting for their kids to say. I find it's so easy to recognise gay people now I'm in my 70s, little tell tale signs, body language, I'm straight always thought my son might be Bi. What I don't like is unnecessary ott camp especially by older men and if gay pride marches and Rainbows everywhere doesn't slow down we'll soon be doing straight pride marches 🙂 As long as what people do in all aspects of life doesn't hurt anyone else it ain't nobody’s business but their own, always liked Bronski Beat and the Communards musicians there are a lot of funny gay comedians about these days, being a dog lover and someone who sticks up for their own folk made the loss of Paul o Grady hard, though I was glad to see him ditch his alter ego, forgotten the name, that's old age for you 😁
