“My view from the back of your scooter, my arms clasped around your hard torso. The heat shimmered. It was the height of summer. I took only one photo because I was mesmerised by your blue eyes, that blond-grey hair, that mouth that could kiss all troubles goodbye. I still remember the heat, the kisses, your eyes, the sense of borrowed time. Two years later I wonder what those days in June were really about. Half a world away I still wonder —and remember. Happy birthday to the greatest love of my life.”

Debbie Harry. Sexy as hell.
Occasionally I get this burning desire to be fair and post pics of people other than Nancy and Stevie. I know right? Craziness. ;D

can I tell you the one thing that gets me about Lady Gaga?
Image and style have pretty much always been essential to pop stardom, but I think most people could agree on 1980s MTV as some sort of turning point, the moment where pop stars became creatures of image — where you could no longer really plan to be a star without taking some kind of care over your visual persona. And for a while there, you could connect image with music in a lot of different ways. Most acts just tried to live out their own aesthetic on film — like, say, Duran Duran. Others made relatively strange music and used the images to ground it in something concrete, to say this is the kind of world this music might come from. (I think this was essential for Prince.) Some had to use image to live up to the scale and sense of event of being a pop star — hence Michael Jackson making videos that were twice as long as the songs they contained. There were a lot of possible relationships between the singles and the visual package.
But it was Madonna, I think, who figured out one of the savviest pop tricks: that you could make singles that were inviting, comfortable, fun, and open to a lot of different uses and interpretations — but use visual packaging to make those songs more challenging, controversial, or even torrid.
