Hiroshima
Boy George · Other Songs - Boy George
You cheat and lie just to survive
Shake the money tree, heed the warning sign
Were lovers lie, not paracites
What would you give to be the master of your life?
The struggle is such a waste of time, yours and mine
I give you these eyes that I see through
My blood, my money too
I'm not afraid to run to you
Cause I get lonely too
No-one knows you like I do
You've got Hiroshima, inside
Where lovers lie
What would you give to be the master of your life?
The struggle is such a waste of time, yours and mine
I give you these eyes that I see through
My blood, my money too
I'm not afraid to run to you
Cause I feel lonely too
No-one knows you like I do
What would you give to be the master of your life?
The struggle is such a waste of time, yours and mine
I give you these eyes that I see through
My blood, my money too
I'm not afraid to run to you
Cause I get lonely
I give you these eyes that I see through
My blood, my money too
I'm not afraid to run to you
Cause I get lonely too
I give you these eyes that I see through
My blood, my money too
I'm not afraid to run to you
Cause I get lonely...
Hiroshima - Boy George
Boy George's 1987 single 'Hiroshima' stands as a defining track of the New Romantic era, blending theatrical pop with a hauntingly atmospheric production style. The song features his distinctive falsetto vocals layered over a driving bassline and synthesizer textures that became a signature of his work during the mid-1980s. Released alongside other iconic tracks from his solo career, the recording captures the emotional intensity and dramatic flair characteristic of George's public persona. While often associated with the band Culture Club, this solo effort highlights his individual artistry and ability to craft memorable, evocative music that resonated globally. The track remains a staple of his discography, representing a pivotal moment in his transition from frontman to a celebrated solo artist.
