She is the queen of reinventation,and of course I not even need to say her name,so this post is a homage and also my opinion on Madge's life and body work.

This was definitely Madonna's year, another Golden Globe, this time for best song on her first movie as a director, another winning album that ask for give all our luv to her,and once more we did. Is almost crazy to imagine that the Vogue video and song were release 20 years ago and some how still so relevant as her creator herself.

The last 2 records I bought before the invasion of the cd was Michael Jackson Moonwalker and Like a Prayer, even that my personality was still pretty much in development, something about her courage and twisted approuch to polemic subjects really attract me, it was a glimpse of my future sexuality and also my very own twisted sense of humour and opinions.

I still remember my older sister telling me about going to this gay club and how overwelming it was when a new Madonna song was playing and the whole club started to go wild and making syncronizing moviments named Vogue ,the same name of this international massive success song that turned Madonna from the naughty singer sansentional into the ultimate queen of the pop.

As a young man from the 90's is impossible remember my party nights without remember Madonna, if today you have Britney,Riahna,Christina,Kylie and so on,back then it was just Madonna,no singer it would have the courage to pull those lyrics and provocative attics without being fear to lose their musical carriers.So does not really matter if you like her or not, she definitely open the path for all the divas of today.

In the same time that Madonna was seating down singing this Ballad about her friend that died of AIDS I lived the fear of my youth, was lucky enough to pass through that phase where a lot of people I knew was gone by that terrible disease. The musical scenario was changing bringing the eletronic music, sound that I first got the glimpse through miss Ciccone and her Bedtime Stories album and it was a love for life much more enjoyed since I moved to UK and their amazing rave nights that I participated.

I could remember diffferent phases of my life through all Madonna Albuns,American life when I decided to go back to Brazil to live in a city I not even knew because the person I was in love with wanted to go back following the Confessions on the dance floor and me realising that someone's dream is someone else's nightmare, so “Je suis désolée “ and goodbye ,but I wasn't prepared for how Britain it changed since I moved out, was also a great time,new love and the return of my nights out with my friends.

From 2007 many events in my life too intimate for me to post here it happen and my life went completely upside down and by irony it proved myself that I am a hard candy ,and listening to this album I went trhought the most stressful times of my life where all my self confindence was gone and life it was pretty terrible for me.

Maybe one of the things that makes me appreciate and relate to her the most is her spirit and bounce back attitude, she out lived all the new pop princess and just showed with her new album that she still got it and she is not gonna give her thone away, especially to Lady Gaga any time soon.

My life now is not exactly MDMA but close to my Hard Candy two years now is pure Reiventation,after all this time im finding new sides of me that if it wasn't already here it probably because I finally giving myself a rest and allowing myself to explore and getting in the conclusion that people it will talk doesn't matter what and I came across all the bad things in my life keeping my head high and my good will intact,although like Madonna my face may not show what life and time did to me but if you look to my arms and hands it is all there ( in my case still only in my thining hair and expression wrikles ) lol

People tent to think that the art of fight with life is about destroy your enemies, but is actually being strong and keep moving forward doesnt matter what it has been through at you until the point that your enemy have no other choice but become your ally.

If squares objects and minds were good, men wouldn't create the wheel to move things forward :)
