So blessed to have that memory still to this day!

    Exactly the same here - 56 year old woman. Irony is, although I loved the song in my youth - and have the hearing loss to prove it, playing as I did at top volume over and over again on my Walkman - I lacked the depth of maturity to even understand it. I appreciate it all the more now.

    Got to bring something like ‘woke’ into it. Ridiculous. Look up the actual meaning. He has a good voice. This is my era. Also you don’t know what the rules are (no phones?). There are plenty of people with good singing voices about because that’s being human and generations get their own music. I don’t pay attention to the music of today for the most part because I have enough to listen to from my collection that I’m happy with but if I come across something I like I will play it. Muse for instance. Today though, human beings like equality. I actually get paid the same as a man doing the same job as me these days. People of colour have, or should have the same rights as every other human being. It’s not difficult.

I moved to Europe and while I was there my husband died 1996. My daughter had this CD of Simply Red. She bought it because it reminded her of me.. She passed away in 2005. I think this song was created for people who can relate. ❤❣💕
