Great topic and great idea. There go I:
BRAD DAVIS.
My all-time hero, whenever I liked something there he was, all intense, gay-inclined, small but beautiful, for a long time he was for me the face of America. When he passed away I felt that a family member of mine had gone.
EUROVISION SONG CONTEST.
My first contact with music was this annual competition where you could hear people singing different languages, dressing funny and you could make your bets and state the political alliances. Now they call it Eurovision Gay Contest, because many european gays relate to it.
Spain winning Eurovision in 1968
THE VISION.
When I was little, I came across Marvel Classics, the Avengers were my favourite, but above them all, this straight android, married to a witch.
He had a different mood than the other too-right winged superguys.
JEAN GENET.
With Walt Whitman and Samuel Beckett, my life-time guidance summums.
FASSBINDER.
My first times on Cinema alone, surrounded by dangerous adults, with naked men on screen, speaking about homosexuality and crime.
Dreadfully exciting.
BILLY JOEL.
His soft voice and unpretentious works, helped me out when I was learning English.
Most beloved for me, from then on.
Really beats me the low critics consideration he's got at home.
