[@takerhapsody]

Raised my son listening to this song and glad to say he is a gentleman when it comes to women. He gets his heart broken but I can at least say he treats women with love and respect

[@JolPil]

So why don´t women treat him with respect in return? Why do they keep running over his heart like it is trash ? A mother can not teach a son how to become a real man, a father can not teach a daughter how to become a real woman. That is why a son needs a mother AND a father.

I love his performance on the song “I’ll Never Turn My Back On You “ you go TTD !!!!!!!

[@lynneforsyth687]

The lyrics are amazing, still love him after all these years. An amazing lyricist and musician. George's voice lends itself well to this song, Nobody has a voice like George...two very different renditions so cannot be compared. Both excellent in my opinion.

I worked on this track, and I'm very, very proud of it. Stands up what, 20 years later? Nice one Terence and nice one Spike, mixmaster supreme. Check out "Neon Messiah" and also "Read My Lips (I Dig Your Scene)" from the later album "Vibrator". "Teggsy" was/is a very, very funky man.

[@genourbanrain]

It had to be politics that never gave this brother his acclaim. I will assume he was giving Prince(who I love also) a run for his money? This dude was awesome, a songwriting genius and that raspy voice was pure soul. Thanks Matthew Vaughn for your contribution.

We waited for a long time for George to sing a new song. I must say I wish he had an original song to sing. George does not need to do covers, and we as fans want to hear some original music. George please trust yourself, and just go with your heart, and make some magic that we all know you can make.

1st time I've heard this song,,, listened to both artists and to be honest I couldnt choose between them, theyre both done beautifully

[@ashsmith3695]

A song that’s come to mean a lot to me. It’s easy to think that you have the upper hand in a relationship. But maturity doesn’t equate wisdom. You grow older and you sometimes realise as I did that when you walked away you thought that you had the upper hand emotionally. But as the years pass you realise that she taught you more than what you thought you taught her. And you still miss her terribly.

[@loramatilda4988]

he is #not #forgotten... his music 🎶 is well remembered today having enough longevity through time. Those types of natural Vocal talents can not bet forgotten. The fact he didn't stayed in the spotlight has probably to do #more with the fact that he maintained his true artistic attitude humble without following or entering the celebrity life. His artwork is very distinctive.

I heard this song many years ago and loved it instantly. Kind of like meeting someone you instantly fall in love with. I haven't listened to it much, and I have to this day never seen the music video. Loved it. They should make a movie like this, and have Terence Trent D'arby sing it again for it. Mr. D'arby has a few really great songs that aren't well known, and the other one I recommend listening to is "Frankie and Johnny" - from the movie with the same name. "Let Her Down Easy" is still my favorite song though...
