@USMCSniperChannel born with it.

A lovely song indeed but it's hardly applicable today is it? Time has moved on big time and if you are gay then you're gay and that's the end of it. Nobody cares one way or the other - much like being left handed.
-
That is an anthem to all Gay people.
Thank you Tom
-
Great song, and groundbreaking. Written at a really difficult time for gay people. Tom Robinson - what a brave guy.

@drvonnick Nice comment nick, Tom's also from my day and I always thought he was a Woofter, but now I have doubts, so my question is......does up the shitter or what?
-
My understanding is the anti-gay laws and actions by the Police were quite severe. in the UK. I have been told the whole cultural response was quite harsh. Even worse that the US before Stonewall. I have been told this song was quite a powerful and brave social statement given the state of English Society at that time.

I don't know if Tom Robinson is still reading, but you were my inspiration back in the late 1970s and early 1980s. There were so many times I just wanted to give it all up amidst all the isolation I was feeling, but you taught me the importance of building coalition and taking pride in one's self. That's a daily challenge even though society has eased up a great deal. The only time I hide now is when I feel I'm in grave danger, and that only happens once every three years or so. Many thanks!

Wasn't Tom Robinson the guy who finally got married and had kids ? Never got the thing whether he was gay or not or just recorded this wonderful song, which was my favorite song in that period.

He did indeed - I think he claims to be bisexual.
bloater999 4 years ago
in theory, he's bisexual, but he says he's "a gay man who fell in love with a woman."

Not sure how that works? Still great song!
