He smiles like a teacher who is genuinely psyched that his pupil learned how to play the guitar properly, and who wants to encourage him with every chord he plays.
This is like when you find a KZread cover that's as good as the original, except here it's the actual artist. Such a beautiful performance.

Happened to me with a couple of girls (ninphomaniacs really very much attracted by me, not joking ahahah). Peoples knew we was hooked up just looking at us nearby each other for the way they looked at me. Not a good idea if you fond your privacy. A hahaha I was mad for that. Because I didn't want these stories arrive to the other peoples. My business. But they was uncontrollable... Their looking at me wasnt horny, not when there was other peoples, was just like in the video. That was enough to make peoples say we was hooked up. And it was true...
Back when you actually needed talent to be famous.

Didn't you think to yourself "am I really gonna be that guy" when you typed your comment lmao. His voice is nothing special, I don't think he is a good example of talent when his voice is very soft and flat here and there's a few notes that he couldn't hit. Not trying to take anything away from him I just hate when people leave stupid comments like yours.
He even doesn't look like and sound like a 22years old guy, so mature our georgie ❤
looks like they had a lot of joy be singing this, and so do we have, by hearing them. thank you for the music!

And this man doesn't get older. You look at him back in 1983 and now, he doesn't change...
0:31 so cute at that moment!
I've been a fan of Boy George since in the early 80's. Beautiful man with a beautiful voice and an awesome personality. Every time i hear his songs it takes back to my teenage years. Thank you Boy George.
Boy George has always been a good artist. I also like that you pick it from the Flemish television. Best performance ever! Regards from Belgium 🇧🇪🇧🇪🇧🇪
Love this song! Listened to it constantly on my cassettes in my car.
Oh... I wanna go backto 80s again ! Im sick of 2020 😢
You know how strong a song is when you play it stripped down and acoustic like this. Lovely!
Amazing and beautiful arranging !

i like the embellishments he gives to this live acoustic performance. it is very different from the regular track and you can hear george is much more comfortable singing it this way, his way. my favorite part is when he says "our love is stronger" cus in the original version he just says strong

Same here - Love the embellishments!....so much that when I sing this on open mic's....I use stronger instead of strong, and I also copy his 'without conviction' and 'an addiction' from this version.....makes the song even more amazing, and more heartfelt.
Oooh Howe I mis and love the 80s!!! Best music ever!!! George is and will alway, s be a icoon! And he stil look, s and sounds amazing!!! Love you George xxx
This was one of the first 45 records I ever owned back in the early 80s. I remember locking my bedroom door so nobody could see me lip-syncing it in the mirror.

I used to watch Boy George in two TV shows before it was moved to ITV as he used to be as a coach on the TV series called The Voice U.K and he appeared in a episode of George Pepper Dirk Benedict Dwight Schultz and MrT in The A Team as the episode was called Cowboy George I am dedicating these movie DVDS of Boy George to my old school friends who are both sisters as I hope to see them both again very soon to Chris Marie and Hester Brand from Billyxx
