  • High Flying, Adored Lyrics:
    Che:)
    High flying, adored
    So young, the instant queen
    A rich beautiful thing, of all the talents
    A cross between a fantasy of the bedroom and a saint
    You were just a backstreet girl
    Hustling and fighting, scratching and biting
    High flying, adored
    Did you believe in your wildest moments
    All this would be yours
    That you'd become the lady of them all?
    Were there stars in your eyes
    When you crawled in at night
    From the bars, from the sidewalks
    From the gutter theatrical
    Don't look down, it's a long, long way to fall
    High flying, adored
    What happens now, where do you go from here?
    For someone on top of the world
    The view is not exactly clear
    A shame you did it all at twenty-six
    There are no mysteries now
    Nothing can thrill you, no one can fulfill you
    High flying, adored
    I hope you come to terms with boredom
    So famous so easily, so soon
    It's not the wisest thing to be
    You won't care if they love you
    It's been done before
    You'll despair if they hate you
    You'll be drained of all energy
    All the young who've made it would agree
    (Eva:)
    High flying, adored
    That's good to hear but unimportant
    My story's quite usual
    Local girl makes good, weds famous man
    I was slap in the right place at the perfect time
    Filled a gap, I was lucky
    But one thing I'll say for me
    Noone else can fill it like I can

    She is so beautiful, regal and dignified. I love her pale skin, dark eyes, and blonde hair. This look is gorgeous on her. The best look I've seen on her since ray of light. Her performance of Eva is amazing.

      @@brianking2771 you know, after reading about her, I think she genuinely cared about the poor people in Argentina and the children a lot. It's no wonder so many people loved her. Of course, I don't think even Eva knew how much corruption was happening behind the scenes in her charity organization and in the Peronist government at the time. Then she got sick and became a martyr before everything Juan was up to was exposed. People sometimes act like only she benefited from the marriage, but Eva Peron was directly responsible for Peron's party getting elected. She brought the poor people to the ballet boxes in droves, because people thought her speeches were very inspiring. It's funny how Eva is a borderline communist in many ways, and Peron is pretty much a fascist.

    The song is beautiful and the performances are timeless...but am I the only one who, the more I rewatch this film, finds Eva herself absolutely insufferable? I know it’s not a completely accurate picture of her as a person but I found myself agreeing with Che a lot of the time. She only wanted to be seen as normal and humble and “just like everyone else” when it suited her and Che sees right through it.

    • @musicaltheatergeek79
      @musicaltheatergeek79 2 роки тому +4

      No, this was a pretty good presentation of Eva Peron. In fact, I think the film made her even softer. I've studied the woman for years. In truth, she was narcissistic and sociopathic in her pursuits. In short, she often used and abused people to her advantage. Many tend to forgive her because she was a young and beautiful woman. Plus, she came from a humble background herself.

  • @joeharris4345

    As much as she wanted this role ans as hard as she prepard for it, Madonna is simply miscast. Her voice is too thin, and she can't act. Meryl Streep would have been a much better choice. Madonna lacks the fire we saw in Patty Lupone's performance. To quote the Little Britain guys, she doesn't have the range.
