Culture Club - White Boy (Performance)

Culture Club performing their wonderful first single "White Boy" on Countdown, 1984.
Taken from their debut 1982 album release "Kissing To Be Clever"

[@ashlynmurray2539]

Man the 80s seemed like an incredible time to be alive! Everybody in the backdrop dancing in strange outfits are having such a great time! So jealous!

[@amberbentley5183]

I agree 💯% I was born in '85 so I was much to little to remember the boy and culture club. It would make my year if I could go back in time and shake his hand. What a amazing artist.

I luv culture çlub

[@debfan74]

This was a bit of ahead of its time, George is rapping, which at the time was very unheard of in this type of band

[@michaeltnewyorknights8413]

A number of english bands had touched on this, The Clash, Wham, Captain Sensible. Beyond the rap section, this song is borrowing considerably from Spandau Ballet

[@SAYZAR415]

Delusional

[@liquidninja6654]

This should’ve been a huge hit. A little ahead of its time. Had it been rereleased in 1983 it would’ve went top 10

[@user-mg4fk7qm4p]

I don't think it was ever released. I'm a fan so, of course, I listened to all the albums and found songs that I liked that were never released.

[@hallodowd846]

I have a certain passion for this song, that I can't explain.

[@leoniesmith9981]

I love you boy George

[@leoniesmith9981]

Do you really want to hurt me I love you boy George leonie

[@jimlereveilleur-ms7wc]

Nice arrangements bass line Mélody guitar everything is good

[@carebearann4613]

I agree, it's hard to describe other than an "unexplained passion"

[@rogerbarrett1979]

This song to me is a 1980s classic!

[@JeffmChicago]

[@theultimatek.i.m.m1504]

First time I heard this they performed it as their last song of the evening in a concert on, like HBO or something. It was awesome! This takes me waaay back in the day! Lovin' it!!

[@greeneyedsoutherngirl6468]

Damn I loved this group since I was 9 :)

[@littlenige]

Easily the best Culture Club smash that never was - white funk absolute.

[@perpetual61]

Fabulous Song from Kissing to be Clever their most Original Album. They all look like their having so much Fun. Thanks TheNouveauxdecadence for Posting such rare videos. I Still Miss Culture Club today.

[@rogerbarrett1979]

This is such a fly song. It was Culture Club's very first single. I don't understand why it flopped.

[@bruce5799]

Very good and enjoyable viewing. If i didn't know better i might of thought the singer was female with that long brown hair

[@66fiveandahalf]

Could I love this man more!?! NOOOOOOO!!!

[@rugbydazz2264]

I used to lie in the dark listening to this on my Walkman in 1983 I was 12.

[@123456789jklmn]

I've gone to one concert back in the 80's when BG/CC came to Toronto, Canada. Great memories. I still have the ticket somewhere in my treasure box. I'll have to see if I could get to the 30th reunion if they have one.

[@datrahardaway3347]

Like how everyone in the back is dressed like Boy George with all his different Styles

[@TheKennedette]

I'm seeing so many people we know of in the back hehe! Think I can see my dad up there. Mikey is killing me with that bass - LOVE IT! And I really want George's beautiful sparkly bow

[@glenn20081965]

I soooooooooooooooooooooooooo love this track!!!

[@ItsJustSunny]

Jon Moss's drumming was TERRIFIC! I enjoyed doing aerobics--esp. high impact--to this song. I hear Culture Club's getting back together bandwise in 2012. The last time I remember hearing Jon was in the song "Conviction of the Heart" (Kenny Loggins song); he was in the video. Looking forward to hearing this guy perform again--he has definite style!

[@TheStepmonkey]

Yea, Jon is one of the best

[@GARose-kt4jc]

Jon ROCKED it, he was a "hottie" too! I'm SO DISAPPOINTED he was pushed out of Culture Club! 😮😮

[@heythereperth]

​@@TheStepmonkeywhy he left the band?

[@heythereperth]

​@@GARose-kt4jccan u tell me the reason why jon moss left from Culture Club?

[@GARose-kt4jc]

A two paragraph answer was typed out for you, but "F"ing KZbin CENSORED IT!! (they seem to be "allergic" to the truth) If you happen to know any Recording Engineers, check with them, that is where I got my input!.....HINT, HE was actually kicked out in September 2018!

[@TheNouveauxdecadence]

@pitochupon Thanks for the cool comments *** Jon Moss does look absolutely BRILLIANT here, love his outfit. I collect everything Culture Club and have for many many many years so I get things from all sources!

[@j.cabello8446]

Renata Mendoza :v descubri la cancion por la pelicula 🙌🏻

[@BoyGeorgeFan83]

to anyone who was wondering: I've read Boy George's autobiography, and this song is apparently about how bland and emotionless white boys are..

[@christianbrown5059]

Jon was stylish with the Union Jack outfit

[@verogarcia913]

George boy quiero que me bailes un solo para mi muñequuta chiquita maipe te amo mi amor heres lo maximo

[@pitochupon]

@TheNouveauxdecadence you make smile......Jon Moss outfit makes him look so hot , he just plays the drums really cool.

[@shanitrahan9904]

Boy george and jon moss are made for each other even if they not together they'll always be gay lovers

[@naturalkinkycurlymarie7496]

*You sound just like Boy George, Lol!* Jon moved on from that many decades ago. He left him as soon as the band split. He dated then married a woman and has 3kids; he's a dad. He has now been with his longtime Girlfriend for years after his Divorce with is Wife in 2010. George is still in love with him and has no problem admitting this on a down day. To hear him talk about it on camera is sad sometimes but George learned to live with the Fact that the past is exactly that... the past. This is what caused a lot of drama in the early years of their Band's reunion tour, George likes to reminisce about the past and gets upset when Jon doesn't feel the same or not interested in talking about it. I've seen documentaries of the band while preparing for a single or Tour and George would have his moments. It's really sad not being able to revisit those memories with Jon. George says he has his Dj gigs and other projects that keep him from *"lost in nostalgia"* during an interview. I've seen so much footage of Boy George's & Culture Club's interviews and small documentaries. THEY are all happy with their lives and love getting together to make new music and go on Tour as they often do. I can't wait to go to one of their Concerts.

This sounds more like Duran Duran than Culture Club!

But it's from the first CC album "Kissing to be clever", not DD 😎

Not really.

like Duran Duran feat Wham!

I was thinking the same thing, with a dash of an up and coming George Michael

I can't figure out the meaning of this song.. any ideas??

[@sweetwilly]

White. Meaning narrow-minded, bigoted etc. that's my interpretation.

[@Amber-pk6zu]

he now prefers george O'dowd. or plain george

[@shanitrahan9904]

Boygeorgefan83 I haven't read boy george's autobiography

[@marlenemalin9808]

Shani Trahan a MUST read. I binged read, literally had to go back and re read parts, riveting, next book STRAIGHT more of commentary of the years ...hope he writes another, but using the first book format

[@tammystwilson1763]

I did. I just had to know who and what inspired all those songs in the 80s. I'm glad he met John Moss.
