This album changed the way I see the world. I was once much like the young man portrayed in this story as I used to be brutally beaten because of my sexuality (gay). I really resonated with how the young fella overCAME his tormenter and how he dealt with the societal struggles of being a queer little gay boy. As the story unfolded before me, the pure and or sheer and or amount of stuff that was good was pretty good, yea, okay bye
