These Are the Finest Queen Boys I've Ever Seen, by…

'Start by kissing my ass/I'll start by rubbing your balls/We'll have a jammy time/Together, one and all/What will we do, later on/When the butter runs out?/You'll probably scream and shout/“Here comes the watermelon seed/Up my snoot-snout”/And that's your asshole/Your snoot-snout…'
.

Depending on your perspective, I'm either really late or really early, but here it is...

Love this one: Smalltown Boy from Bronski Beat!

It's more about the experience of being young, gay and rejected than about politics, but it applies, methinks.

I still unsure if this guy really hit by the bus ?

When i paused at 0:50, his body bend to the left, looks like he really been hit by the bus.

[MarquisOrias]

no obligatory TaTu all the things she said yet, impressive! Though they were gay-for-pay the message in the song is still valid.

Vanessa Carlton dedicates this song when she plays it live to "all those who suffer discrimination from either your mother or the government" which I think is pretty damn cool. She also came out as bisexual last year.

I cry when I hear this song because I have this whole music video/story about a young gay couple not being understood by everyone and it makes me sad, but it's so moving at the same time.

Beat me to it dude. One of my favourite Leftover Crack songs.

 

[pai mei]

the last verse (there's three 'stories') is so powerful.


love this song.



i love finding music that's specifically geared towards us, it makes the music that much more intimate and powerful.
