Evita - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (1687 words)
The lyrics and storyline of the musical are based on Mary Main's biography Evita: The Woman with the Whip, which drew heavily upon the accounts of anti-Peronist Argentines.
At the end, it shows Perón's ability to play to the masses and his ambitions to become the next president, the title being based on the aphorism that "politics is the art of the possible".
"Santa Evita" (The Chorus) is the song of Eva's devoted supporters, who see her as a modern-day saint, fighting for their cause against the wealthy industrialists.
Madonna (entertainer) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (8861 words)
The soundtrack to the film contained her second number one pop hit, the Grammy-nominated ballad "Crazy for You." Later that year she appeared in the commercially and critically successful film Desperately Seeking Susan, with her comedic performance winning her positive reviews.
The film introduced the dance song "Into the Groove" which was released as a B-side to her single "Angel", peaking at number five in the U.S. In Europe, "Into the Groove" became a major hit and her first U.K. number one.
The film's soundtrack became her twelfth platinum album and produced two popular singles, "Don't Cry for Me Argentina" and "You Must Love Me," which was written specifically for the film.
