Single by British synthpop trio Bronski Beat included on the band's second studio album Truthdare Doubledare (Apr. 1986), and also found on the (various artists') soundtrack album Letter to Brezhnev (1985). The single was one of three singles by the band to reach number #3 on the UK singles chart as their highest ranked releases - the other two being the Donna Summer cover of "I Feel Love" (with Marc Almond) (Apr. 1985) and their debut single "Smalltown Boy" (May 1984).
I wasn't a big fan of their music but still found Somerville's vocal quite extraordinary and a fascinating instrument.
