Why wouldn't it have been based on real events? Why would Terry have invented such a messed up story? Seems people didn't want to face the truth or couldn't believe that rape happens to boys as well as girls.
@@sunny70299 when I said real events even at the time I never gave it a thought that this was about himself. I had the album when I was 15/16 ish back in 1984 that kind of thing was something I knew nothing about when I was that age
@namph72 I think if a woman wrote this song no one would have doubted she was telling her own story and it's very sad that it took until 2019 before people listened to Terry when he had been bravely speaking out about being a survivor for years.
Terry Hall is a truly legend! All his works are timeless. Thanks for posting them!
RIP Terry, you made a lot of music happen.
One of the coolest, the boy from Coventry done good..Going to miss you mate 💙
Thanks so much for sharing this.
FB3 is one of the most underrated bands ever.
I've never seen them live, but at least this video is still with us.
i feel so bad for terry and what he had to deal with as a child :( he said it was difficult to write this song - i can imagine it was..
😥💔💔💔
❤️
Sad disturbing and true case of sexual abuse when he was 12 :'( 💔
Always wondered if this was based on real events wasn't until The Specials released Encore that I found out it was poor Terry
