mLine 1:
Line 1: − − In 1971, Laura Nyro Came Out On The Down Low, Tucked − Under The Covers. − − Laura Nyro's treatment of her song "Desiree" is one − of the most undisguised professions of love by a woman − singing to another woman ever recorded. − − In November 1971, at the age of 24, Laura Nyro first − came out in her adaptation of a song which she titled − "Desiree." I am convinced that the inspiration for that − song was her eventual life partner, Maria Desiderio. − − Ari Fox Lauren, the foremost authority on the music − of Laura Nyro, wrote “Emmie’ and ‘Desiree’ are open − expressions of same-sex attraction on Laura’s part.” − − Michele Kort authored the biography Soul Picnic: − The Music and Passion of Laura Nyro. In her book, Ms Kort − echoed this sentiment. "If you want to know her...go to her − music." − − My request to the reader is that you do just that; − listen to the song. − − .
