Bronski Beat - Smalltown Boy ORIGINAL VIDEO

Bronski Beat's iconic song, "Smalltown Boy," released in 1984, touched the hearts of listeners by addressing the challenges faced by LGBTQ+ youth in a small, close-minded community. The accompanying music video resonated with audiences worldwide for its poignant storytelling and thought-provoking visuals. Lead singer and co-founder of Bronski Beat, Jimmy Somerville, with his distinct falsetto, carried the emotive vocals that captured the longing and struggle of the song's protagonist. The band's other members, Steve Bronski and Larry Steinbachek, provided the synthesizers and electronic beats that complemented Somerville's impassioned delivery. The original video for "Smalltown Boy" portrays the isolation and desperation faced by a young gay man living in a small town. Directed by Bernard Rose, it shows the protagonist being rejected by his family and tormented by locals. He eventually escapes his oppressive environment, finding acceptance and freedom among a community of like-minded individuals.
