3. The glam rock, also known as glitter rock is a musical genre born in Britain, whose heyday was between 1971 and 1974. His name is an abbreviation of the word "glamorous". Born in a time when psychedelic rock styles that led to some abuse the virtuosity and extended development in the songs, to the detriment of the freshness that could be found in the old rock'n'roll. So many artists, with Marc Bolan of T. Rex and David Bowie to the head, began to search for that lost spontaneity. And they found it in a debtor's basic rock of the 50, which added more decibels and combined it with the best pop emerged in the 60s.

4. But there was something else, because if anything this style was characterized by giving much importance to the music and its aesthetic-or rather, his aesthetic was also part of his music. So before the image of male-dominant rock in those days, they rebelled playing with sexual ambiguity and displaying a brazen and provocative attitude.The pioneer was Marc Bolan, whose "findings" are aesthetic leopard prints, top hats, feather boas and glitter. As the genre grew more popular costumes were bright future, platform boots, hairstyles impossible and kilos of makeup and glitter they used. David Bowie also helped draw in New York's environment transvestites Andy Warhol, whose aesthetic was by choice. And thus was born the flamboyant glam image, which could only have happened in a decade as prone to excess as the aesthetic of the 70s..

8. Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy? Caught in a landslide, No escape from reality. Open your eyes, Look up to the skies and see, I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy, Because I'm easy come, easy go, Little high, little low, Any way the wind blows doesn't really matter to me, to me. Mama, just killed a man, Put a gun against his head, pulled my trigger, now he's dead. Mama, life had just begun, But now I've gone and thrown it all away. Mama, ooh, Didn't mean to make you cry, If I'm not back again this time tomorrow, Carry on, carry on as if nothing really matters. Too late, my time has come, Sends shivers down my spine, body's aching all the time. Goodbye, ev'rybody, I've got to go, Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth.Mama, ooh, I don't want to die, I sometimes wish I'd never been born at all. I see a little silhouetto of a man,. Any way the wind blows Scaramouche, Scaramouche, will you do the Fandango. Thunderbolt and lightning, very, very fright'ning me. (Galileo.) Galileo. (Galileo.) Galileo, Galileo figaro Magnifico. I'm just a poor boy and nobody loves me. He's just a poor boy from a poor family, Spare him his life from this monstrosity. Easy come, easy go, will you let me go. Bismillah! No, we will not let you go. (Let him go!) Bismillah! We will not let you go. (Let him go!) Bismillah! We will not let you go. (Let me go.) Will not let you go. (Let me go.) Will not let you go. (Let me go.) Ah. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. (Oh mama mia, mama mia.) Mama mia, let me go. Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me, for me, for me. So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye. So you think you can love me and leave me to die. Oh, baby, can't do this to me, baby, Just gotta get out, just gotta get right outta here. Nothing really matters, Anyone can see, Nothing really matters, Nothing really matters to me BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY
