5 stars Bronski's version even better
Those who want to hear Jimmy Somerville's vocal might be disappointed, but I think Steve Bronski's vocal on this acousitic version of the song (which he wrote) is more powerful. I recommend the overlooked Rainbow Nation album as well...

1 stars Not Bronski Beat Jimmy Sommerville
As a fan of eighties music, I was shocked to find Bronski Beat single cd, Smalltown Boy '94. I was equally shocked that it was a disappointing cd as well. Yearning once again to hear the distinct voice of Jimmy Sommerville of Bronski Beat fame, he was nowhere to be heard. Steve Bronski is lead vocal. I was expecting to travel back in time, remembering the days of my youth only to find that they had replaced Sommerville with a cheap immitation!
