Where did my Childhood Heroes go? **I was just sitting there at my desk minding my own business and there it was...** **That disturbing sound.** **That sound that re-railed my whole train of thought.** Zephyr in the sky at night, I wonder Do my tears of mourning sink beneath the sun? https://youtu.be/x3ov9USxVxY?t=31 That sounds brings back memories, probably my favorite Madonna song ever. Madonna, one of the big three for kids growing up in the '80s & '90s. The big three and you could only have one favorite, so for girls, it was pretty easy Madonna was your heroine. And of course, she produced some great songs in her early days Madonna - La Isla Bonita https://youtu.be/zpzdgmqIHOQ But I liked her best as Evita! Evita Soundtrack - 17. You Must Love Me https://youtu.be/0y6zsxneu6g This song was not in the original Evita, but was written by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice, for the 1996 film adaptation of the musical, Evita. It was the only song added to the original musical just for Madonna. Now Evita was not her own album, hence another one needs to be the best Madonna album ever. For me it was Ray of Light and if you don´t agree you have to admit at least that it´s her "most adventurous" record. Madonna - Ray Of Light https://youtu.be/x3ov9USxVxY As a boy, you had a little more choice you liked Michael or Michael. Let´s start with Michael. Mr. Jackson, of course, kicked off as a kid and but as a kid, we did not care that much for Ben...we were looking for a thriller. Michael Jackson - Thriller (Official Video) https://youtu.be/sOnqjkJTMaA Now the choice between Michael & Michael is not as black & white as you might think because during the Thriller days the rivalry was not huge but come BAD, come who´s the Biggest. The fight didn´t get as Dirty as Diana but it was the biggest musical battle of the eighties. Michael Jackson - Dirty Diana https://youtu.be/yUi_S6YWjZw Who won that battle, George Michael was out selling Michael Jackson in the US during this year but Jackson sold a lot worldwide. Jackson has 5 no.1s hits while George has 4 no.1s and a no.2 as well. World Wide Bad sold 35 million copies while Faith has sold around over 25 million copies worldwide. So it´s very clear who won the battle, but that doesn´t mean that Jackson was everybody's favorite. The Boy wasn't mine if it comes to favorite I was bad, but I gotta have Faith, Faith, Faith. George Michael - Faith https://youtu.be/6Cs3Pvmmv0E Bias? Yes, maybe I was Bias as I was a Wham Bam I am your man, kind of boy. We had the freedom to choose and I chose George over Michael. Wham! - Freedom https://youtu.be/kufh8YJCMZs Looking back I wonder why I liked George more, but it´s a fact and maybe this is why. That Listen without Prejudice Album was such an eye opener George Michael - Cowboys and Angels https://youtu.be/mTCJIrHiue4 Or maybe it was how he stepped up when Freddy stepped down. Queen + George Michael & Lisa Stansfield - These Are The Days Of Our Lives https://youtu.be/H9rx_VVNaH8 I ended up looking back at the days of my life and notice that the lives of both George and Michael have ended early. Michael overdosed and George his death was a combination of a dilated cardiomyopathy with myocarditis and a fatty liver. The corner called it "natural cause", but it could have been caused by a weak heart and alcoholism. But both heroes were gone way too soon if you ask me. Michael Jackson - Gone Too Soon https://youtu.be/IcNamirwTaY Both did not grow old and wise.....and neither did Madonna she only grew old and weird. https://youtu.be/j_JhED_ptyw But she is still on top of the game, and therefore I do have to admit that The Queen of Pop surpassed the King of Pop & The Queer of Pop. **And I have at least one childhood heroine left, or what´s left of her.**
Post Scriptum Now If I actually have any readers, some might want to comment that I missed someone. A hero dressed in Purple. Well as you could read, I said part of the Big Three and even though I agree that our purple hero definitely is in the same league as the big three, you can´t call the Minneapolis Midget part of the Big Three, can you? Prince x The Revolution - Darling Nikki https://youtu.be/EkwWFIqLJd4 Prince was probably the biggest of them all, but he chose to avoid the spotlight a bit more causing him not to be part of the Big Three. It didn´t help him a lot as also Prince was not able to withstand the impact of fame & Fentanyl on a mere human body. Sometimes It Snows in April https://youtu.be/ikZgBhSMSUM *That does make one wonder why Madonna did not succumb.*

Among all Michael Jackson is my favorite singer. I love to his words paid through heart.
I saw a photo of Madonna recently and she looked totally fkd up!! I don't know what she has been injecting into her face, but its not healthy.
She is really weird in many ways lately and her performance at Eurovision a couple of years back was a horror, maybe she is the only one still alive because she is not the least of an artist.
