Madonna starred in Evita which was released during the fall of 1996. – “And if ever I go too far It’s because of the things you are beautiful town, I love you.”
For the next year and a half, I got to know Washington, DC pretty well. Since I couldn’t afford a car, I became accustomed to a life of walking and biking everywhere. I used public transportation a lot.
Living in the city was intense. DC was a hard place to live sometimes, and the gay scene was overwhelming. Even though on the surface, DC appeared to be a very conservative town, there were all kinds of things going on in the background, behind the scenes. No matter if you were straight or gay, DC had a lot of options when it came to finding a bar, or a club to match your particular taste. Sex was everywhere. I couldn’t tell you how many supposedly “straight” married men I met in the gay bars. It made me look at the world in an entirely new way.
It was around this time that Madonna starred in the film, Evita. Due to my obsession with Madonna’s music, I made a point to see this movie at least five times on the big screen. I loved it. At this point in my life, I had never seen Madonna live in concert, so I set the goal of seeing her before I turned 40 years old.

What’s new Buenos Aires?
I’m new, I wanna say I’m just a little stuck on you
You’ll be on me too
I get out here, Buenos Aires
Stand back, you oughta know whatcha gonna get in me
Just a little touch of star quality
Fill me up with your heat, with your noise
With your dirt, overdo me
Let me dance to your beat, make it loud
Let it hurt, run it through me.
Don’t hold back, you are certain to impress
Tell the driver this is where I’m staying
Hello, Buenos Aires
Get this, just look at me dressed up, somewhere to go
We’ll put on a show
Take me in at your flood, give me speed
Give me lights, set me humming
Shoot me up with your blood, wine me up
With your nights, watch me coming
All I want is a whole lot of excess
Tell the singer this is where I’m playing
Stand back, Buenos Aires
Because you oughta know whatcha gonna get in me
Just a little touch of star quality
And if ever I go too far
It’s because of the things you are
Beautiful town, I love you
And if I need a moment’s rest
Give your lover the very best
Real eiderdown and silence.
[musical interlude]
You’re a tramp, you’re a treat
You will shine to the death, you are shoddy
But you’re flesh, you are meat
You shall have every breath in my body
Put me down for a lifetime of success
Give me credit, I’ll find ways of paying
Rio de la Plata
Florida, Corrientes, Nueve de Julio
All I want to know
Stand back, Buenos Aires
Because you oughta know whatcha gonna get in me
Just a little touch of
Just a little touch of
Just a little touch of star quality
