Jesus to Michael

The Artist

George Michael is a household name in the British Music Industry. For the past 2 decades he was domineering the radio waves from being a part of a duo Wham then as a solo artist. But his rise to fame was not a smooth one, as he met a lot of problems with record producing labels such as Sony. He struggled against them as he cannot take the pressure of being someone different in the face of his many fans. Eventually he came out of the closet in 1996, but was in an established relationship since 1991 with Anselmo Feleppa to whom he dedicates the song am featuring here "Jesus to a Child." He kept his homosexuality secret because of his ailing mother with the fear of the impact it would do her. Eventhough, he was haunted by the papparazzi everytime he will be en flagrante delicto being himself.

I've learned that he's staging a come back in the industry. Can't wait what bomb would he explode this time after the last bout he had with the authorities about a fat guy he had engaged sex with. Could he be cooking another song like "Outside" that he penned to mock the controversy he was with a policeman before.

The Song

Kindness in your eyes I guess you heard me cry

You smiled at me Like Jesus to a child I’m blessed I know

Heaven sent and heaven stole

You smiled at meLike Jesus to a child

And what have I learned

From all this pain

I thought I’d never feel the same

About anyone or anything again

But now I know

Chorus:

When you find love

When you know that it exists

Then the lover that you miss

Will come to you on those cold, cold nights

When you’ve been loved

When you know it holds such bliss

Then the lover that you kissed

Will comfort you when there’s no hope in sight

Sadness in my eyes

No one guessed, well no one tried

You smiled at me

Like Jesus to a child

Loveless and cold

With your last breathyou saved my soul

You smiled at me

Like Jesus to a child

And what have I learned

From all these tears

I’ve waited for you all those tears

Then just when it began

He took your love away

But I still say

Chorus

So the words you could not say

I’ll sing them for you

And the love we would have made

I’ll make it for tow

For every single memory

Has become a part of me

You will always be ... my love

Well I’ve been loved

So I know just what love is

And the lover that I kissed is always by my side

Oh the lover I still miss ... was Jesus to a child

Do let John go down on me

THE ARTIST



Reginald Kenneth Dwight or mostly known as Sir Elton John is one of the 70's music most dominant force. He has also been named the second most played artist on British radio over the past 20 years after George Michael. Some of his famous characteristics are his ability to quickly craft unique melodies, his rich tenor and now baritone voice, his classical and gospel-influenced piano, the flamboyant fashions and on-stage showmanship. The latter according to him were his way of letting go after such a restrictive childhood.

He has been heavily involved in the fight against AIDS since the late 1980s and continues to be a champion for the LGBT social movements up to this day. He established the Elton John AIDS Foundation in 1992, intending to direct 90 percent of the funds it raised to direct care, and 10 percent to AIDS prevention education. He also announced his intention to donate all future royalties from sales of his singles in the U.S. and UK to AIDS research.

John married German recording engineer Renate Blauel but they divorced four years later. John later renounced his bisexuality and came out as being gay instead. He met his Canadian-born partner David Furnish, a former advertising executive and now film maker, in 1993 and on 2005, they entered into a civil partnership.

Within the music industry, Elton is sometimes known as "Sharon", a nickname originally given to him by good pal Rod Stewart.

In the song 'Don't let the sun go down on me' which is the first song in his album Caribou, he sings to someone he has helped and from whom he is now experiencing rejection.

THE SONG

I can't light no more of your darkness
All my pictures seem to fade to black and white
I'm growing tired and time stands still before me
Frozen here on the ladder of my life

Too late to save myself from falling
I took a chance and changed your way of life
But you misread my meaning when I met you
Closed the door and left me blinded by the light

Don't let the sun go down on me
Although I search myself, it's always someone else I see
I'd just allow a fragment of your life to wander free
But losing everything is like the sun going down on me

I can't find, oh the right romantic line
But see me once and see the way I feel
Don't discard me just because you think I mean you harm
But these cuts I have they need love to help them heal

THE ARTIST

Darren Hayes is an Australian singer-songwriter who with his partner in Savage Garden, have mades such hits as "I want you", "To the Moon and Back". After parting ways in 2001 he launched into a solo career with his album "Spin" with the hit single "Insatiable" which I really liked so much that I chose to put this in one of my blogs, although he had released a new one. The lyrics were meaningfully crafted, just look way past the music video and you will see that it was meant to describe the relationship between 2 guys.

He entered into a civil partnership with his boyfriend, Richard Cullen, who is also his animator and director, on June 19, 2006. But before the announcement of the said union, his sexuality had been constantly questioned by the media so when the wedding was made public long-term fans were no longer shocked.

Forbid me to love you Jim !

THE ARTIST




Jim Verraros is an outgoing, personable and sweet American singer and best known for being the first openly gay contestant who made it on the top 10 finalist in the first season of American Idol.

During his junior high he had endured endless harassment for being a "faggot" mainly because he got a voice that wasn't low compared to the other guys. And also that's because he loved doing the choir and the theater acting.

Now as established entertainer besides acting, he starred in the gay-themed comedy Eating Out and its sequel, he wants to incorporate gay activism into his career as well. Well said Jim, now how can you forbid me not to love you?

THE SONG

You're making me crazy, baby
I can't figure you out buy maybe
make up your mind; tell me what you wanna do
I wanna groove and move right next to you
Close your eyes as my hands are on your hips
Hips, lips, fingertips - let it rip
Give it to me; give me your love
You like it soft, but let me show you rough
We're getting closer - can you feel it?
Can you handle it, can you take this?
It's getting hotter, getting hard to breathe
What you got, i want and i need

Forbidden love
Such a dangerous game (do you want to play)
Forbidden love
Buy you know i got to play (in every single way)
Forbidden love
We can dance the night away
Forbidden love, forbidden love

Come on, baby, let your body go
I wanna take you down right to the floor
Bodies shaking, love that move you're making
You're breaking me, you've taken me
I can feel your eyes weighing me down
Turn around 'cause you don't make a sound
Follow me, just take my hand
Don't try, i'm gonna make you understand
Holding you closer, holding you tighter
It's getting hotter - let's make a fire
Your body's burning love,
let's turn the music up
I got a thirst and i can't get enough


Forbidden love
Such a dangerous game (do you want to play)
Forbidden love
Buy you know i got to play (in every single way)
Forbidden love
We can dance the night away
Forbidden love, forbidden love

Necesito muy bien
No estas enloqueciendo, yeah
Te necesito, dame lo, dame lo
Quiero sentir tu cuerpo, yeah
Come on baby, let your body go
I want to take you down right to the floor
Bodies shaking, love that move your making
You're breaking me; you've taken me

Forbidden love
Such a dangerous game (do you want to play)
Forbidden love
Buy you know i got to play (in every single way)
Forbidden love
We can dance the night away
Forbidden love, forbidden love

Today he's still living in Los Angeles now sharing his life with his hunky husband or legal domestic partner, who so supportive of him in his chosen career.

THE SONG

Just an ordinary man
Thrown into a life I didn't plan
Suddenly my world has changed
I'm unprepared to make my way
My resolve is growing weak
So unsure of who I'm supposed to be
The one who takes the noble path
Or the one who wants what he can never have
And I'm hardly the hero
This is the only thing I know to do
To make it through
But I need you to believe
That beneath this bravado
I'd still give anything to have a chance
To get you back And I'm hardly a hero for that
Exuberant and terrified
Every time I look into your eyes
But I can't entertain the thought
Cuz we both know I'm not the man you thought I was
And I'm hardly the hero
This is the only thing I know to do
To make it through
But I need you to believe
That beneath this bravado
I'd still give anything to have a chance
To get you back
And I'm hardly a hero for that
The ones I love will always be
The ones who pay the price
And so I set aside my dreams
To do the thing that's right
And keep it all inside
And I'm hardly the hero
This is the only thing I know to do
To make it through
But I need you to believe
That beneath this bravado
I'd still give anything to have a chance
To love again
And I'm hardly the hero for that Yeah
I'm hardly a hero

Some Gay Pimp for the Fellas

THE ARTIST




Johnny McGovern who is famously known as "Gay Pimp" is an American singer and a stand-up comedian, who himself is gay have successfully crossed-over to the pseudo-mainstream introducing songs such as "Soccer Practice", "Dream Boi, Cream Boi" and "Lookin Cute/Feelin Cute". They're a particular favorite for dance clubs of mixed crowds.

His chosen screen name meant as a lighthearted response to hyper-masculine heterosexuals and the seeming obsession of the gay men with projecting butchness.

Wouldn't you like to be his extras in the video? Gosh ! They're so awfully hot in their scenes hope your screens would not light up and burn.

Jesse does not love Ivri

THE ARTIST

Ivri Lider is an Israeli singer coveting the "Male singer of the Year" and has sold 160,000 copies of his album. He spoked of his homosexuality to a daily newspaper that attracted many people. Recently he came out with this single "Jesse" which has the lyrics below. I find this song very endearing because it has captured the feelings of every gay in the world. I myself have fallen in-love to someone (his initials were RC)too. Only fate knows if we'll ever cross our paths again.

THE SONG

I love a boy named JesseBut

Jesse doesn't love me back

He says he has a girl named Chelsea he wants so much

I love a boy named Jesse

But Jesse doesn't love me back

He says he's insecure about what he feels and what he wants

What he feels and what he wants...

But every time he smiles at me

I know we are the same

And that he'll change his world for me

If he just knew my name

There's no need for you to say you saw the life they chose for me

For me...

I love a boy named Jesse

But Jesse doesn't love me back

He wants to kiss and go to bed but he doesn't want to talk

I love a boy named Jesse

But Jesse doesn't love me back

He says he's straight and all that stuff is only in my mind

Only in my mind...

All I can hide

I'm doing fine

But every time he smiles at me i know we are the same

And that'll he'll he change his world for me

If he just knew my name

There's no need for you to say you saw the life they chose for me

For me...

I love a boy named Danny

But Danny doesn't love me back

He says he has a girl named Chelsea he wants so much

I love a boy named Danny

But Danny doesn't love me back

He says he's insecure about what he feels and what he wants

What he feels and what he wants...
