despite his distracting personality & accented eccentricities, he's been a part of enough good songs that he gets by on the art alone.

I second that.

I can understand calling him pretentious, but he is just so cool. He can pull off whatever he damn well pleases.
I had the biggest crush on him for the longest time (well, still do) and was disappointed when he came out, though not surprised in the least bit.

 

[bohemian rhapsody]

very unique man, though I hate that he's getting older.

Oh, but he's aging well! "Old" looks good on him, hehe. I love him with a scruffy beard and gray hair.

I like him and love his style. I find that he can get away with basically anything, some ppl I just find difficult to pick at coz i just think 'oh well thats them, and it looks good'

However I remember watching a tv interview with him about a year or two back and found him really awkward (not as in difficult) it's like he was majorly insecure and nervous...quite like a small boy or something...it was definitely strange

He's so talented that he could get away with anything...

Seeing him in a live concert is simply breathtaking!
He is so undescribably cool and strange...and all he wears (even the makeup and eyeliner) seems to be a part of himself, he can really get away whit anything, I agree.

I adore him unconditionally.

can we get this thread moved to a more dignified section (art of music, that is)?

with Patti Smith...

 

[newprincesita]

He is such an inspiration to me. His music is awesome and he´s so stylish in a raw, primal way.
I just can´t take my eyes off him whenever he appears and when I saw him live in a concert I could see what it was all about. He´s truly magnetic. He´s above sexuality, he´s a faun....he stares at the audience in such a devilish way.

Even if he´s gay you feel so attracted to his personality....it´s kinda spooky.
