Good for him! Just don’t let him being thrown down from a building by heterosexual Muslims!
yes and avoid bomb jackets! good tip, and you should try not to take that new baby to a neonazi march!
I understand hockey (boring) and camping (dirty). I don’t get why you live in Canada where temperatures on average get much colder than in the south.
And a beautiful city it is. Enjoy the cold.

Another old but new one to me.
Miranda Hart introduced me to BillyJoel again, despite the song usually played in her show isn‘t one I like (Uptown Girl, ew). Haven‘t listened to him for ages. And so I dived through a few songs of him on YouTube this morning and found this version of Summer, Highland Falls. My second most favourite song right behind Piano Man. And you know what? I attended this evening in Nürnberg even!!! I was there together with Uli, my best friend, and her partner.
Pretty song.

Oh God, not you too with the Springsteen scheiße. lol. I hold out hope that Gunda’s new obsession (some Brit Youtuber who moved to Germany or something) will spare us from more Springsteen.
He’s a minor attracted person so no, but his music has some interesting elements.
Great find, Michele!
I post two versions of that song, as they are very differently performed. I like both. Depends on the mood. But I find that Irish version a tad bit better, as I love irish folk (= first video). But the little talk between Bruce and his wife in the second video is funny and made me laugh. I think they are having a very good relationship. I am just not a fan of Patty’s country-style voice. The alternative I had, was a duet with Steve van Zandt, the bands guitarist. But he sounds awful too, lol.
Ahh, thank you but I wasn’t looking for it.

Bruce Springsteen’s body of work contains a striking number of songs with homoerotic or queerly suggestive content. Moreover, his live performances often push the limits of the homosocial, ‘queering’ onstage relationships through everything from lingering kisses with the late saxophonist Clarence Clemons to intimate microphone sharing with guitarist and real-life best friend Stevie Van Zandt. In this paper I trace Bruce Springsteen’s consistent performative engagement with queer desire over the course of his 40-year career through a close reading of both lyrics and performance (including onstage, and in video and still photography). I examine how Springsteen’s queer lyrical content and performative acts contrast critically with dominant readings of his hypermasculine, ‘all-American’ image, and suggest that Springsteen’s regular deployment of homosocial and homoerotic imagery in both lyrics and performance – far from being an exception to his more mainstream persona – actually constitute a kind of queer aesthetic vital to, and consistent with, his artistic vision of love and community.
And?
