THE 50 BT GAY SONGS TO CELEBRATE PRI ALL YEAR LONG

)OK boys, play the bridge[Bridge]Not that kd of bridge, you silly savagYou want Ben Gay all over you? Now my wranglg days are overBut I n hontly sayWhoever heard of a wboyNamed Hopalong Ben Gay(I don't know why they took my purseThey have saddle bags, don't they? While some classics do appear on our list, others do not – sorry, Gloria Gaynor, Kylie Mogue, RuPl, Brney and Cher, we still adore you — here are 25 sential pri songs om the 1970s to today.

gay clubs but, wh a strg of hs, expand to natnal tours and TV.

Somewhat rctively lled the “Queen of Dis,” the virtuosic, openly gay sger approached genr ( his performative and private liv) as a fluid, non-bary ncept a pre–Judh Butler era. Although seems most of Queen’s fans were cluels as to how openly gay and subversive ontman Freddie Mercury was – spe the unabashed swank of his stage prence – he also never really tried to hi . Rodgers later told the Mail on Sunday that they wrote the track “bee of her gay followg,” but fibbed a ltle to a sktish Ross.

ULTIMATE PRI PLAYLIST: THE 50 BT GAY SONGS

“A DJ told her [the song] was gog to her reer – people would thk she was gay,” Rodgers said. It’s a quiet piano ballad about growg up gay. The lyrics e om the out-and-proud Brish punk rocker Tom Robson, who had a h of his own wh “Glad to be Gay.” The payoff is the tenr moment at the end when Elton sgs, “I would give my life/For a sgle night bi you.” Maybe he sred himself wh how emotnal he uld be – was years before he tried anythg this revealg aga.

Much of Erasure’s disgraphy embodi not precisely celebratory gay pri but gay romantic realy – a ankns about the emotnal, if not overtly sexual, liv of gay men toward the end of the 20th century. So when out Brish duo Andy Bell and Vce Clarke’s plative yet buoyant sgle beme a worldwi h gay-uniendly 1988, felt quietly revolutnary to anyone the know. The gay teens and tweens, most of them closeted, fely did.

“Beg gay and open about is my substance.” –JR. Ontman had long been a whe-hot sex symbol, role mol and trendsetter for gay men and other LGBTQ dividuals across the world.

GAY, BEN

The Bay Area gay punk pneers found a ht of mastream fame when they toured wh Green Day on their Dookie n 1994, but was their sexy lyrics and who-giv-a-fuck attu that enared them to a generatn of queer kids – before that term was even fashnable. It’s difficult to pick one song that f them – wh songs like “Dick of Death,” “Groovy Unrwear” or their classic ver of Prce’s “Jack You Off” – but we went wh one that seems to fy the ia of a gay “anthem” no matter how you thk of . “One thg that we have is that we’ve always sung about beg gay.

GAY BEN

We’re not jt gay and micians,” Jon Goli told Rollg Stone last year before the release of their latt album, Que Contrary. “We have sung about beg gay as a part of the topic wh our songs.

I thk, over time, some of them are ls specifilly gay than they were at first bee seemed like, when we had the chance that was really what we wanted to sg about and that was really unique.” –JP. Ltle did she know that her wgirl blu would not only w her the Grammy for Bt Female Rock Vol Performance but would also yield an empowerg theme for the gay muny.

“The gay muny lifted me up and supported me.

BENS GAY

As both voutly straight edge and proudly homosexual, their substance-ee stance ma them stand out a time when bars, clubs and other toxitg spac prised the few safe havens for LGBTQ people. When I me to the pot where I was actively gay took a b of time to get fortable and e out but I felt ready for whatever me my way.” –SE. Bono ld them as “the bt pop group the world” that year, and Elton John would llaborate wh the band on their 2006 smash h “I Don’t Feel Like Danc’.” Although only a actn of the band’s succs Europe translated to the Uned Stat, “Take Your Mama” remas a staple gay bars across the untry.

Butler later told The New York Tim that “Bld” relled “growg up a gay kid, my immediate fay and social group rejectg me, and askg why I was born to this suatn. The tr would later make headl after the 2014 Grammy Awards, where their landmark performance of the song would soundtrack a mass weddg between 33 gay and straight upl.

Seattle’s Michael Hadreas transforms om young man to queer menace the sparklg vio for “Queen.” Sgg “No fay is safe when I sashay,” he slks to a nference room and gyrat his hips for a room full of sus – a sly riposte to the legns of homophob who weaponize their fears agast LGBTQ people, om wh board rooms, Congrs, or out on the streets. How do a song bee a gay anthem? While ’s impossible to fe exactly what mak a song “gay, ” this list fely isn’t straight.
