Happy Birthday to the Queen-Madonna
Today is the day the incredible Madonna was born. Being a girl who is into 80s sleaze metal, rocknroll, punk rock, and rockabilly I really have lost all taste in pop music-especially nowadays. But one can surely not ignore the power and amazing-ness of Madonna. She is a legend and I have to admit-she is one of my main influences for style. Her style is the perfect combination of 80s sleaze metal and vintage pin up girl( since Marilyn Monroe was one of Madonna's influences). Listening to all my Madonna albums at the moment I am thinking about just how great and powerful the 80s were. It was a time when Heavy Metal was mainstream, the goth subculture was just starting to bloom with greats such as The Cure, The Sisters of Mercy, and Siouxie and the Banshees was rising in England, and MTV was actually cool. So not only is this blog post a dedication to her but it is also a dedication to everything 80s that has touched my heart-and others around the world.
