We all know that from very long times, the homosexual organizations are fighting to get equal consideration and rights for gay and lesbians, in many ways, Music is  one of these. 80’s music, and band names could be seen as an action of sexual liberation. The lines you are going to read could sound a little bit offensive or dirty, but you will see that all the listed names and things are just here to state my point of view.
So, if we look  back on the music scene of the 1980s, one thing sticks out – Heavy Metal. Not just the real traditional heavy metal, but metal of the hair band variety. And the major observation that we could come up with about the heavy metal scene in the 80s is that the whole thing was gay or at least that’s what it seems. I’m not really saying that all of the 80’s heavy metal people are gay, but they were definitely putting up a homosexual front (probably to sell more records). And I’m not talking about openly gay heavy metal guys like Rob Halford of Judas Priest; as I’m  not saying that there’s anything wrong with being gay, just that hair metal is a sorte of homosexual scream of liberation…as to say “We are here, and we worth the same as you!”

Dunno how famous she was over England and out of Italy but she is the new millennium girl, the one that in a loundry was ready to ask you to do “up&down” and ready to cenfess : “I keep on burning…I need you once again!“… Billy More!
