Lately been listening a lot to Jimmys musics again in 2024. It always evokes a huge deep sadness and melancholic streak in me as I remember dancing in our Toronto fabulous gay clubs in the late 70s and all through the 80s in the halcyon days just before aids swept through us . And during , refusing to see , accept the horrible nightmare losing countless friends and lovers . For a few songs each time I listen again to the Communards and. jimmy’s solo career I smile and shed a tear . Simultaneously.

You should live and be alive and nobody can tell you otherwise, why do you judge yourself when nobody else does, btw I am Herron, so don’t ever believe you are less…. Cheers friend

This guy never needet autotune!

[@millimetreperfect]

He was frequently a bit off key, but that just made it a better performance. You knew it was him and it was real.

[@scottanthony6269]

Its amazing back then this was on a children programme and nobody thought anything of it. The 80s were just a great time

[@olivierlatour2591]

Good thing by the way…

Fascinating to watch as the audience was all kids of various ages and an openly gay man/band singing about coming out and a lot of them probably had no idea what the song was about.
