"Time (Clock Of The Heart)" is a timeless classic (no pun intended).One of the best songs of the 80s.

Time is my favourite song of theirs, loved them since I was a baby. Saw colour by numbers at a wrecka stow the other day and almost bought it. Would rather get a greatest hits. I almost saw them in concert years ago but was out of town studying | |

A lot of people look at their garish image (really, Boy George's garish image) and consider them a novelty act that made good but these guys were legit. They had HITS and their albums were cohesive, quality projects with some top notch cuts, "Black Money" is my song!

A member of this band was a customer somewhere I used to work and we got chatting as you do and he sorted me out with a pair of tickets to see them.
I attended a casual fan and came away blown away by them. Time was the stand out as someone mentioned here earlier. Great songs, great writing, lovely guys. So much more to them than the outrageous image. Lots of respect to these guys. Motown, black money was just like record. Brilliant. If you get to see these guys live even if not a fan, go, you'll come away majorly impressed. [Edited 10/11/21 16:23pm] | |

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton | |

"Time", "Miss Me Blind", "Mistake #3" are all my favorites. But "Black Money" takes the top spot for me. R&B radio played it like it was a single. "It's not nice to fuck with K.B.! All you haters will see!" - Kitbradley

I loved Culture Club. They just spoke to me. Their music was felt like light hitting you. It felt open, organic, almost under produced in some regards. " don’t really care so much what people say about me because it is a reflection of who they r." | |

The band was cute. Did George pick them himself? | |

First album I ever bought was 'Waking Up With The House On Fire' when I was 5 or 6. Was obsessed with Boy George as a child! Their first greatest hits from 1987 is a pretty perfect pop album!
I later got 'Luxury To Heartache' on cassette and then 'Everything I Own' on 7", but lost interest after that and moved on to Madonna. I did like that Jesus Loves You album he did in the early 90's though. 3121... Don't U Wanna Come? | |
