The one and only Frank-n-Furter, Mr Tim Curry is 75 years old today!
CAMP: "A cornucopia of frivolity, incongruity, theatricality, and humour." "A deadly, winking, sniggering, snuggling, chromium-plated, scent-impregnated, luminous, quivering, giggling, fruit-flavored, mincing, ice-covered heap of mother love." "The lie that tells the truth." "Ostentatious, exaggerated, affected, theatrical; effeminate or homosexual; pertaining to or characteristic of homosexuals."
Adore. I used to buy his albums on A&M. He had a song called Brontosaurus that I loved. And a version of Anyone Who Had A Heart that was super Frank N Furter. Remember I Do The Rock? Lol. He's a wonder. Thanks for sharing, dear.
ReplyDeleteI never even knew Mr Curry had a singing career outside Rocky Horror...
DeleteSo sad to see the pictures of him now, still in a wheelchair after that stroke almost nine years ago. Jx
He'll always have a special place in my heart! Maybe I could fall in love with the devil if the devil was Tim Curry, as he was in Legend (1985). However, like Lili I too wouldn't be able to slay a Unicorn or any other creature. The love would have to go unrequited. You wouldn't really love me if you asked me to slaughter something for you just because it existed.
ReplyDeleteI suppose, if you are the Devil, slaughter's your vocation, really. Jx
DeleteYes, unless he'd be like Lucifer (TV Show, Aired in UK?) starring Tom Ellis, mmm yummy Welshman who can play piano. In that arrangement the devil/aka Lucifer isn't evil, just misunderstood.

Never heard of it - but I think I could be a bit evil with him! Jx
DeleteAdorable and adored.
ReplyDeleteHe is... Jx
