Out Magazine published this list that is supposedly based on ballot votes and expert opinions. I only have a handful crossed out even if I include a handful of songs per album that I listen to (e.g., Jeff Buckley's Grace -- I only have "Hallelujah"). Pa'no pa kaya kung na-complete ko yung list? HAHAHAHA! Then again, by "gay" we're not zoning in on gay men on this list (duh!), so no chance talaga for me to cross out all of them.
The list does make me curious as to what these albums sound like. It's so... eclectic. Who knew Nirvana can be gay, while all the Mariah albums -- even Gloria Gaynor albums -- were left out on the list? Hehe. Maybe because those are the obvious ones... *shrugs*
BTW, this list reminded me of that Gay Album the local record stores were selling a couple of years ago (I purchased one... LOL!). Is there an "official" list of the gayest songs out there? Maybe I'll fare better there -- what will the likes of "I'm Coming Out" and "I Will Survive" probably making that list.* * *
