“I was blown away when I found out just how many people took the time to work on videos for this. Truly amazing, and very tough to decide on a winner. I chose this one though because I was totally in from the very beginning. It’s a wonderfully executed concept, and beautifully shot. I was in tears by the end. Thank you for creating this.. " - Greg

LYRICS
When I was younger,
my daddy told me I would never
Never amount to nothing special.
He’d come at me from every angle, he’d say..
You’re the last thing I wanted,
the last thing I need,
how am I going to answer when my friends tell me
My son, was kissing boys in the street
He’d try to change me,
say I’m embarrassing my country,
How could I do this to my family,
do I wanna grow up being lonely,
he’d say We have worked for our money,
we’ve put you in school,
is this how you repay us,
do you think this is cool
My son, stop kissing boys in the street
Now that I’m older,
my daddy’s hearts a little warmer
But he still won’t hug me like my brother,
and he still won’t kiss me like my mother,
he’d say… You are part of this family,
I made you myself,
but the way that you act isn’t good for your health,
My son, stop kissing boys in the street
My daddy’s dying, but he's finally realized I’m not lying
We sit in silence but we’re smiling,
because for once we are not fighting,
he’d say… There was no way of knowing,
cos all I was taught is men only love women,
but now I’m not sure
My son, keep kissing boys in the street
My son, keep kissing boys in the street
When I’m gone, keep kissing boys in the street

Seriously Greg how many times can you make one guy cry? I have been following you for a long time since I've watched Julia (Bar on A). I was raised in a very religiously conservative family. Since I've come out and stood for my beliefs my family has completely shunned me. This song gives me hope that one day "they realize i'm not lying"! BTW if you're ever in the States I'd love to see you live!

One the most difficult things about being different is that some people used to think we choose to feel what we feel, then you have to deal with the hell that's happening in your head but also the shit other people throw at you.

The first time I've heard this one was way back years ago and I felt goosebumps around my body. I downloaded the song and made it my anthem. Today, out of nowhere, I felt an impulse searching the song in Ytube then found this one, my hairs in my skin were standing again esp at the end. This song and mv are just perfect, it touches my soul.

Tom, my spouse LOVED this song more than anything! His family never understood and in the end he didn't get a funeral and I was told in Gods eyes we were an abomination . I didn't get to say goodbye Today, Today is my Birthday July 18th. I am alone... As I just lost my WONDERFUL Spouse Thomas Cook (boinerz -YT channel) He passed on June 27th of "Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) .It was just he and I and our dog Toby and cat Chloe. It was a traumatic death. We were together going on 34 years in January. I face this day alone with no one to share and with a broken heart and torn soul. Lord how I miss him... The only person to share EVERY Birthday with in the last 34 years.

What a beautiful song of struggle and acceptance. Being different is not an easy way to grow up but know that you have love and acceptance from your "family" from all over the world. We are all connected and have understanding of the hard times we have experienced. Be strong and be the good person you are. Thank you Greg for the love and support and acceptance that you have in your heart that is evidenced from this beautiful song. Love to everyone from USA

GREG HOLDEN (2015) - BOYS IN THE STREET (Traducción en español) When I was younger Cuando era más joven My daddy told me I would never Mi padre me dijo que jamás Never amount to nothing special Jamás llegaría a ser nada especial He'd come at me from every angle Me atacaría desde todos los ángulos He'd say Diría You're the last thing I wanted, the last thing I need Eres lo último que quise, lo último que necesito How am I gonna answer when my friends tell me Cómo voy a contestar cuando mis amigos me dicen que My son was kissing boys in the street Mi hijo estaba besándose con chicos en la calle My son was kissing boys in the street Mi hijo estaba besándose con chicos en la calle He tried to change me Trató de cambiarme Say I'm embarrassing my country Dice que estoy avergonzando a mi país How could I do this to my family Cómo podía hacer esto a mi familia Do I wanna grow up being lonely ¿Quiero crecer en soledad? He'd say Diría We've worked for our money, we put you in school Hemos trabajado para ganar nuestro dinero, te metimos en la escuela Is this how you repay us? Do you think this is cool? ¿Es así como nos lo pagas? ¿Crees que esto está bien? My son, stop kissing boys in the street Hijo mío, deja de besarte con chicos en la calle My son, stop kissing boys in the street Hijo mío, deja de besarte con chicos en la calle Now that I'm older Ahora que soy más mayor My daddy's heart's a little warmer El corazón de mi padre es un poco más cálido But he still won't hold me like my brother Pero aún así no me abrazará como a mi hermano And he still won't kiss me like my mother Y aún así no me besará como a mi madre He'd say Diría You're a part of this family, I made you myself Eres parte de esta familia, te hice yo mismo But the way that you act isn't good for your health Pero la manera en que actúas no es buena para tu salud My son, stop kissing boys in the street Hijo mío, deja de besarte con chicos en la calle My son, stop kissing boys in the street Hijo mío, deja de besarte con chicos en la calle My daddy's dying Mi padre se está muriendo And he's finally realized I'm not lying Y finalmente se dio cuenta de que no estoy mintiendo We sit in silence but we're smiling Nos sentamos en silencio pero estamos sonriendo Because for once we are not fighting Porque por una vez no nos estamos peleando He'd say Diría There was no way of knowing 'cause all I was taught No había manera de saber porque todo lo que me enseñaron Is men only love women, but now I'm not sure Es que los hombres sólo aman a mujeres, pero ahora no estoy seguro My son, keep kissing boys in the street Hijo mío, sigue besándose con chicos en la calle My son, keep kissing boys in the street Hijo mío, sigue besándote con chicos en la calle When I'm gone, keep kissing boys in the street Cuando me haya ido, sigue besándote con chicos en la calle
