Which American singer-sonwriter is known for the album supporting tour The 1989 World Tour and the charity single Ronan released in 2012 ?
Ronan (song) "Ronan" is a charity single released on September 8, 2012, by American singer Taylor Swift to the iTunes Store. Swift's lyrics are based on a blog she read about a four-year-old boy, Ronan Thompson, who died from neuroblastoma in 2011. Swift wrote the song by putting together quotes from blog creator Maya Thompson, Ronan's mother. Thompson is credited as a co-writer of the song. Swift first performed the song live for Stand Up to Cancer in September 2012, and has only performed it publicly one other time, at the Glendale, Arizona stop of The 1989 World Tour, at which Thompson was in attendance. All proceeds from sales of the single go to help fight cancer.
Oh Father "Oh Father" is a song by American singer Madonna from her fourth studio album "Like a Prayer" (1989). It was released as the fourth single from the album on October 24, 1989 by Sire Records. The song was not released as a single in most European territories until December 24, 1995, when it appeared on the 1995 ballads compilation "Something to Remember". Written and produced by Madonna and Patrick Leonard, the nexus of "Oh Father" was the presence of male authoritative figures in Madonna's life, most prominently her father, Tony Ciccone. Madonna's relationship with her father had soured, after her mother's death in 1963 and his remarriage two years later. While developing the "Like a Prayer" album, Madonna was in an emotional state of mind due to her personal problems, which is reflected in "Oh Father".
