I heard this amazing song today, called The Killing of Georgie, have you heard it?

It's by Rod Stewart, and it's about a gay man who gets killed. At one part he just sings, "Georgie was a friend of mine" and I just cried and cried. I have a friend who is gay, and people on the religious section here say he is going to Hell, and people at school are mean to him and hearing this song made all my feelings just kind of burst out.
