Taboo
My, this song makes me cry.
You always knew, didn't you, mother. You always knew like mothers always do. You always knew, didn't you, mother, I was a stranger in this world.
It's from Boy George's musical 'Taboo' where Euan Morton plays George and Mr. O'Dowd himself (real name of Boy George) plays his deceased friend Leigh Bowery. The musical tells about life of so-called New Romantics who appeared in early 80s as a part of pop culture in Britain. Freaks, queers, obviously song has universal meaning. And hey, I haven't heard of creative people who hadn't problems in school or in university :) All legends had problems with studying. I know the only creative person who has diploma, it's Kevin Grevioux, a screenwriter of first Underworld movie. He even has a degree in microbiology or something, can't remember. But anyway, I think the song is great and Euan's perfomance is quite impressive, as well as George's who appears later in the video as Leigh Bowery. I'm definitely snagging a dvd from Britain (Amazon.com doesn't have it).
