Oh they always ran in the same circle because of the new romantic movement from the late 70s some of them even worked at the same club together. Like the blitz then called hells, boy george worked as the coat room attendant until he got fired lol. Then there was The Roxy or Roxi, Billy's, Croc's in Rayleigh, Essex, and The Regency in Chadwell Heath, where Depeche Mode and Culture Club had their debut gigs. There was lots of art school based movements going on back in the day.
What have I done to deserve this?! Pet Shop Boys and now Peter Murphy, Boy George all have released new gorgeous music in the past few days. The music artists I grew up on in the 80s are still here with us making our hearts sing. 💞😭💓
As a gay man and an original goth who waited to be up front with my hands on the stage to see Peter - my romantic hero back in the day, this song is the perfect pairing of bittersweet nostalgia and triumph over bigotry that I never thought possible in 1987. Veiled Roses and glitter to you both, Peter and Boy. Thank you.
It reminds me when 2 of my favorite bands colab together, pet shop boys and new order. The vibe is different but like you I Love Peter Murphy and Culture Club was a huge part of my life . I saw Boy George in New York at the Tunnel Bar and it was probably one of the best concerts I have been too. Out of curiosity who would you like to see do a colab?
My father passed away on nearly 2 months ago. I forwarded this video to his last woman and life companion and I broke down crying. I don't know why. I guess it had to get out of me. Thank you Peter and Boy for making my own tears fall to your beautiful notes and voices! Still crying, but oh how I am thanking you for this! While being over half a century old, I feel like a child, a comforted child, again.
"Let The Flowers Grow" I gave my soul To the things that you admired I caught it As it came through Let you be my saviour Kept it to give you back Back-to-back With you And the heartbeat of the city In the shadows I made my home I've been changing And mamma don't know Let her tears fall And make the flowers grow I am changing And daddy can see His reflection In the mirror of me Should I regret These dangerous feeling But I was born To feel alone Without your love I'm just a stranger A wilful child You can't control And the heartbeat of the city In the shadows I made my home I've been changing And mamma don't know Let her tears fall And make the flowers grow I am changing And daddy can see His reflection In the mirror of me Back-to-back With the spirit holy Imitated you for you to be I've been changing And mamma don't know Let her tears fall And make the flowers grow I am changing And daddy can see His reflection In the mirror of me
As they say, never meet your heroes, well I met Boy George at round about 20 years ago, whilst working in a Southampton night club, and I never been disappointed by meeting him, I loved his work even more since, what a special person ! ❤ G
I saw Peter in Adelaide and there were only a couple of hundred people there, we stood feet from him and he was totally captivating, so special to be so close....I could almost feel his spit on me....
@@valerieslater-t1v I've met and shaken hands with Peter Murphy twice, once in the Cascade tour in Lisbon and just a few years ago in Madrid. He's a geniune human being. Very pleasant and charming.
It’s not easy to take someone else’s song and make it your own, but here we see something that only a truly great Artist could do. Peter Murphy shares the song of Boy George and makes it his own without taking it over. We hear one song, but there are two. Boy George’s song is a beautiful, uplifting song about personal acceptance. Peter Murphy’s song is hidden a layer below. It’s enchanting and shatteringly sad, if you pay attention to what he is singing. It’s about a great personal price of becoming and being an Artist. I’m truly grateful to Boy George for this song and to Peter Murphy for all his songs, and for Bauhaus.
This is no ordinary music, it’s a masterpiece, please people make the right decision once in your life and make this no.1 in the official charts. Well done Boy George & Peter Murphy 👍👍👍👍👍
Brilliant...their voices complement each other perfectly creating magical vibration that hugs my heart and fills my soul with light and joy...Thank you, dear legends! 🖤🌹🎩🦇🌹🖤
first david gilmour, then the cure, and now this... what is going on in britain and why couldn't we get any of that here in america? this is beautiful!
It's always going on in Britain, we haven't totally prescribed to Disney princesses singing with auto-tune here, still a load of amazing bands and artists doing the rounds, they don't get the big corporate backing to get into the singles charts anymore
It still happens here in the colonies that way too. Lotsa great bands and artists making non-commercial non-corporate music that doesn’t equate to chart making hits.
So Wow, a Ballade, so 80s, so Bowie, but it is the Year 2024 with Peter Murphy and Boy George. And today Boy George is playing near my home town, Live in Bochum incl. his Culture Club. Amazing🎉
Oooooh ☆ This is a special collaboration Needs not more of validation Love the moody film of lust Adds perfection you can trust Artistry of special core Leaves you wanting so much more Like this song it made me smile Spectacular it showed some style Lovely vocals just sublime Absolutely best of prime Several stars go out to you For this song of special hue This jumped out amongst the blue Because it's perfect just for two ☆☆
Earlier today I was wondering what's the use and what's everything for. For this. For beautiful music like this. The rare beautiful moments in life that we get. They keep us moving on.
I must admit on first hearing the song ,I actually thought it was David Bowie but no it was two amazing artist who never fail to make a decent song well done guys very beautiful.
The truth is we all need something like this. Truth, flowers, experience and talent...far from all the uglyness and clashing reality of these days. Let's all irradiate ourselves with beauty and peace. Thank You Peter and George!
What a beautiful song!! Immediately liked it upon the first listen and right now listening for the second time. Could've been a Bowie song. Fucking brilliant.
The timing of this release is impeccable. This is so inspiring and beautiful. Two of my all time faves duetting. Life affirming, meaningful stuff from living legends in a dystopian era for a Gen xer like me. ♥️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Culture Club and Bauhaus are the collab I never thought I needed.
but its just awesome
Love❤️

It must have been fabulous @@Harteo3917
Necessary in these times.
What have I done to deserve this?! Pet Shop Boys and now Peter Murphy, Boy George all have released new gorgeous music in the past few days. The music artists I grew up on in the 80s are still here with us making our hearts sing. 💞😭💓
The PSB & Soft Cell release a song called The Purple Zone. It was great too.
And the best Cure album in many years came out this year too!! All of the greats are here now.
That’s the 80’s for you. Not the shit today like the European MTV music awards.
The Cure too released a new album
Maybe the best until 1992 wish, but not so great@@abellingrath5662
My 80s and gothic heart is so full and happy for this collaboration. Bravo!!!
As is mine! Absolutely gorgeous‼️

This would have totally been a hit in the 1980s. Can it be a hit in 2024?
Keep sharing and streaming ....... it's in the hands of the people and listeners
I think no, this song is not regaeton so many people won´t like it if they would hear it. I think it´s beautiful.
It's up to us..let's make it a hit...keep on streaming
Everyone who is still alive from the 80's will love this and it just might hit with millenials too.
I hope so...george deserves another go xx
The spirit of bowie was there when they recorded this song...
Agree ❤
Totally agree ❤❤
I thought the same as soon as I listened to this song
Absolutely agree.
There is a David Bowie sound to it. Very nice, 2 very talented singers.
I concur!
It made me not like it. Felt very unoriginal.
David Bowie-esque vocals. I guess Pete Murphy has always been inspired by David Bowie though
I thought exactly the same. I really like this 🙂🙃😄😁
I think George and Pete would be the first to acknowledge that. It's a homage and a bloody worthy one too.
Peter, Boy, and Youth had to grace the world with this because we no longer have David Bowie.
This was needed. And I didn't quite realize how much.
Agreed!!
My father passed away on nearly 2 months ago. I forwarded this video to his last woman and life companion and I broke down crying. I don't know why. I guess it had to get out of me.

Thank you. 🥹... today is the birthday of my brother, he died in 2003...I miss him. The Song, your Voices kissed my tears. 🖤
Made me think of my dad and my brother who I've lost. It's his best song in years...beautiful x
@andrewanniwell4091 I miss my brother, my dad, my mom, lovely friends. I understand you. The music feel us , we feel the music a lot. Big hug.
Eu não q eu a ❤❤ a a q
@@andrewanniwell4091a❤ 😄😊
❤
WOOOOW Amazing! 🙏💗🌹
Really reminds me of David Bowie!
I loved Boy George in the 80's....his Style and his music !
Sure this will be a World-Hit❗
"Let The Flowers Grow"
I gave my soul
To the things that you admired
I caught it
As it came through
Let you be my saviour
Kept it to give you back
Back-to-back
With you
And the heartbeat of the city
In the shadows I made my home
I've been changing
And mamma don't know
Let her tears fall
And make the flowers grow
I am changing
And daddy can see
His reflection
In the mirror of me
Should I regret
These dangerous feeling
But I was born
To feel alone
Without your love
I'm just a stranger
A wilful child
You can't control
And the heartbeat of the city
In the shadows I made my home
I've been changing
And mamma don't know
Let her tears fall
And make the flowers grow
I am changing
And daddy can see
His reflection
In the mirror of me
Back-to-back
With the spirit holy
Imitated you for you to be
I've been changing
And mamma don't know
Let her tears fall
And make the flowers grow
I am changing
And daddy can see
His reflection
In the mirror of me
Thank you🌹🌺🌻🖤💚
Such beautiful, deep lyrics.
Thank you. Just 1 correction: daddy can't see (George posted on X)
@@vayxanh Now daddy can't see
@@dumphoneuser800 can see (in the video)
Gave me goosebumps ,wonderful graphics, two amazing voices made a 77 year olds day ❤
As they say, never meet your heroes, well I met Boy George at round about 20 years ago, whilst working in a Southampton night club, and I never been disappointed by meeting him, I loved his work even more since, what a special person ! ❤ G
Lucky u, I saw him live in SF CA thought I was lucky.
I saw Peter in Adelaide and there were only a couple of hundred people there, we stood feet from him and he was totally captivating, so special to be so close....I could almost feel his spit on me....
@@valerieslater-t1v I've met and shaken hands with Peter Murphy twice, once in the Cascade tour in Lisbon and just a few years ago in Madrid. He's a geniune human being. Very pleasant and charming.
@@OAlem He is definitely charming.....
@@valerieslater-t1v, just like Siouxsie. Being up in front- to see their eyes whilst singing. It's the whole point.
Peter Murphy still has one of the most brilliant voices I have ever heard & I miss his presence tremendously. 🖤
Let's hope he makes gigs around again.
I died and went to heaven. I love love love Peter Murphy (that deep vocal tone) and Boy George. Absolutely awesome collaboration.
Sounds like David Bowie. God Speed and Rest In Peace StarMan. ✌️
True Dat. I was thinking the same.

You could say "It cuts you up!"😊
George's vibrato is gorgeous in this song!!!
He sounds better than he did 40 years ago. It's inspiring!
@ agreed!!!
@@mperezmcfinn2511 Agreed, George sounds great. Murphy's voice has gotten rough though.
Up there with Shirley Basseey and Tom Jones in this song. Beautiful vibrato
I think mr Bowie would be very proud of this.
Lovely song, fantastic vocals!
This is no ordinary music, it’s a masterpiece, please people make the right decision once in your life and make this no.1 in the official charts. Well done Boy George & Peter Murphy 👍👍👍👍👍
Not a collaboration I would ever have expected, but this is beautiful. Wow. Absolutely love it.
A full album Murphy & George would be awesome I believe.
god no this one song is boring enough
@jerzygoota2903 A lot of people disagree with you so meh.
THE BEST!!!
That would be very interesting indeed :)
Two beautiful, aging voices, out Bowie-ing each other. Lovely song. Brilliant production, LOVE the snare.
Beautiful music and imagery, very emotional, I agree with others, this is a masterpiece 🌷 stunning, pure art 💖
I swear Boy George's voice has got better year on year.
WOW This is beautiful I hear Peter George not bloody Bowie XXX I keep repeating non stop. XXX
Absolutely mesmerising collaboration. Harmonies to die for.
Thanks for not using "collab."
They sound incredible. Boy George sounds amazing!
This song and video is absolutely stunning! Thank you, Peter and George, for sharing your gifts together in this beautiful, inspiring song. ❤❤
What a wonderful song. Thank you!
Love this song. I've got it on repeat for like half an hour. Great job George and Peter.
Same here!!!
Boy George's voice wow !! great song
hope for a full album from both murphy & george! The dream collaboration we didn't know that we need! Guaranteed to buy the album1
Brilliant post that I so agree with.
Brilliant...their voices complement each other perfectly creating magical vibration that hugs my heart and fills my soul with light and joy...Thank you, dear legends! 🖤🌹🎩🦇🌹🖤
first david gilmour, then the cure, and now this... what is going on in britain and why couldn't we get any of that here in america? this is beautiful!
It's always going on in Britain, we haven't totally prescribed to Disney princesses singing with auto-tune here, still a load of amazing bands and artists doing the rounds, they don't get the big corporate backing to get into the singles charts anymore
Fuck that brother. Grow up and get away from childish BS
It still happens here in the colonies that way too. Lotsa great bands and artists making non-commercial non-corporate music that doesn’t equate to chart making hits.
historically, yanks always lag behind the brits musically. it's the yank's square population.
È incredibile come una canzone appena uscita sembra che sia dentro di noi da 40 anni ....ma gli artisti servono a questo ❤❤
That hit me deep. Thank you Peter and Boy George. I needed that.
Boah - What a beautiful Song! Thank you Peter and Boy!
David this for you! ❤
Why didn't somebody think of this before!? This LIVE would bring down the house.
So Wow, a Ballade, so 80s, so Bowie, but it is the Year 2024 with Peter Murphy and Boy George. And today Boy George is playing near my home town, Live in Bochum incl. his Culture Club. Amazing🎉
So beautiful! There is still beauty in the world..❤
What a wonderful song! I love it!
What absolutely beautiful video. Peter and George’s voices work so well together.
I’m so happy this exists.
Incredible song by amazing talent. I am so glad to see Boy George taking part in a song that completely takes advantage of his voice.
My lil goth heart is happy. George’s voice has matured and is so very tender in this song. The video is gorgeous. Love this collaboration so much!
A song so deep, it will hit you in the heart for those who understand the complex packed in the changes of life... ❤
Great Homage to David Bowie As I adore him since 1972 and you both too, I just love the vibe of this song. Thank you ❤
Really a beautiful song
After listening to this song everyone realize everything will be OK. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but one day it's gonna be alright.
Very nice 🌺✨💗💗✨🌺
🌺Fabulous, exceptional, beautiful song ! 🌺
A really, really beautiful song by two amazing artists.
Just beautiful!

Coolio! 🩷🌸⚘️🪷🌹🌺🌼🪻🌻
Beautiful imagery.
Beautiful and very relaxing. Love Boy Georges vibrato
New phase of Boy. Excellent. What I was hoping for! Peter's voice is classic.
Unexpected greatness. Moving song. They sound engaged
Twirling of Sufi, so graceful, this is a masterpiece, both music and video
Whirling Dervish?
@MR.B00_ I can't remember the difference between the two. Or if they're just different names for the same type of dancer.
@@mperezmcfinn2511 As a dance form it’s whirling dervish still it’s twirling joy that struck me
Wow this is absolutely beautiful and haunting!🫶🥹🎶✨
Oooooh ☆
This is a special collaboration
Needs not more of validation
Love the moody film of lust
Adds perfection you can trust
Artistry of special core
Leaves you wanting so much more
Like this song it made me smile
Spectacular it showed some style
Lovely vocals just sublime
Absolutely best of prime
Several stars go out to you
For this song of special hue
This jumped out amongst the blue
Because it's perfect just for two ☆☆
Great collaboration from great artists. Really hope for more to come
Earlier today I was wondering what's the use and what's everything for. For this. For beautiful music like this. The rare beautiful moments in life that we get. They keep us moving on.
So odd. These two! I AM down for every beat!
It's cool hearing Boy George sing. ❤
Great music, fantastic vocals and magnificent video ! ❤
I must admit on first hearing the song ,I actually thought it was David Bowie but no it was two amazing artist who never fail to make a decent song well done guys very beautiful.

Phenomenal collaboration of two great artists, thank you both for a truly amazing piece of art ❤😊❤
È proprio vero che a volte dalle collaborazioni più improbabili nascono vere e proprie gemme musicali! ❤ Greetings from Italy 🇮🇹
I hope this is a taste of what may be coming from a new album from Peter Murphy. He is long overdue for a complete album. As for the song- fantastic!
Boy George je le suis depuis 1982 cette collaboration atteint des sommets je souhaite bon vent à ce titre 💕
Wow great song. Lovely lyrics. They chime with me. The voices work so well together. Perfect
