I am 54 years old... I can only say... I had the honor and privilege of listening and growing up with the music of the 80s. That time, that music is unrepeatable.

[TheRedDevil_NC]

This song hasnt aged and neither has its singer. Top notch.

[davidsforza]

I miss the '80's every day. What a time to be young. The time. The people. The music. It will never happen again.

I lost my eldest son and grandson. I then lost my dad. Recently I lost my husband. I feel so sad and alone. Then I came upon this song. Brought back so many memories of my younger days and how I felt when I first heard it all those years ago. It still brings tears to my eyes. Life can be an absolute bummer sometimes. I'm so happy to see Jimmy still singing and going strong. What an amazing voice and what an incredible life he has lead. Small-town Boy gives me the strength I need to carry on when I think all hope is gone. I can listen to it over and over this man ❤❤❤❤❤

[SFOD]

I am sorry, but there hasn't been another decade of music that has even come close to the eighties. Truly amazing

[emiliaroma]

I feel sorry for my grandkids they will never realize how incredible the 70s and 80s were.

[jaffa]

Im 56 now and the 80s was the best years of my life. 😃 Bring back the 80s 👍

No flashing luxury cars, no vulgarity, no flashing money and rubbing them onto your face, a simple message relatable to everyone of us. Thanks Jimmy I always fly very far when I listen to your song. Love from Italy.

40 years have passed since this song released and I still get chills from that angel voice in 2024 ... I am so glad I grew up in that era of music

1989. USSR. I"m a smalltown russian boy looking Bronski Beat and Smalltown boy on MTV first time 😮 After 35 years i'm looking that and say ever and ever: "Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away...".Great thank's, Jimmy!

[christianwestergaard]

TELL ME WHY can he in this age, sing so clear and controled, respect for Mr. Somerville - lovely song!!

[andrewbillington]

As a gay man, the same age as Jimmy, his music has been the soundtrack to my life and I am thankful for it.

[TheMeerkatboi]

I left home as a teenager heading to London on the train with this playing on my Walkman-and it's never left my memory..Classic.

[ingriddouglas]

The message in this song will always be relevant to young people. Parents, love your children, tell them they are special.

[JojoTheWitch]

In the 80s, they didn't have autotune, that's why they sound divine live! The voice as on a record! 😍

[danielbrown]

That synth line is pure gold and pure nostalgia!! I miss the 80’s

[wjhnmzp]
