Em primeiro lugar: "Canção de engate"

Morre de repente em 1984, parece por complicações relacionadas ao VIH. Naquele curto espaço de tempo, teve se calhar uma das carreira musicais mais consequentes para a música portuguesa e para a visibilidade das pessoas LGBT em Portugal.

É em 1981 que consegue lançar a sua incrível carreira musical. O seu estilo de música é descrita por si próprio como sendo algo entre "Nova Iorque e a Sé de Braga". Tem como grande referência da sua música, e de mais até, a grande Amália Rodrigues.

Philip St. George's correspondents, who were certainly his friends, and at least one possibly more, were either gay/bisexual and talk about their experiences during the war/post-war period.
It's a really nice read, so would strongly recommend!

Recently, I've come across this fascinating collection of letters at the Smithsonian, from 1945-1953, to a certain Philip St. George.
They provide a great and personal insight into gay and bisexual lives at this time.

“Sim, duvidávamos ambos:
Elle não sabia bem
Que o amava loucamente
Como nunca amei ninguem.
E eu não acreditava
Que era por mim que o seu olhar
De lagrimas se toldava...”
