Scottish singer-songwriter Jimmy Somerville entered the music industry as the lead vocalist of the British pop band Bronski Beat. The trio, originally co-founded along with Steve Bronski and Larry Steinbachek, scored an international success with their debut single entitled "Smalltown Boy". The composition topped the singles charts in Italy,[1] the Netherlands,[2] as well the Hot Dance Club Play list in the United States.[3] Having reached the top-ten in a number of other countries in addition, such as Canada,[4] the Switzerland,[5] Germany,[6] France,[7] Ireland,[8] New Zealand[9] and the UK (at number three),[10] the single was certified Gold and Silver by the Canadian Recording Industry Association (CRIA)[11] and British Phonographic Industry (BPI).[12] The band's debut album The Age of Consent (1984), released through London Records, matched the sales of the first single. While peaking at number four in the UK and number 36 in the US, the set received two platinum certifications from both the CRIA[11] and BPI.[12]
According to the Syndicat National de l'Édition Phonographique, Somerville himself sold 1,422,905 albums and singles in France as of 2009. While additional 1,765,500 units in common with the Communards.[13]
