Since these are obviously all pulled from the incidental music on RuPaul's defunct talkshow, I was wondering if ILX could compile a list of, no, seriously, the most gay songs ever.
For example, I believe that the gayest tune I own is Patrick Cowley's "Menergy."

Sinitta - "So Macho"
― snoball, Saturday, 8 March 2008 14:17 (sixteen years ago) link
Er, no, NOT "So Macho", which was actually BANNED by DJ Ian Levine at Heaven, owing to the opening line: "I don't want no seven stone weakling nor a boy who thinks he's a girl". Its composer, one Reverend George Hargreaves, further went on to blot his copybook by donating money to a bunch of firemen who refused to hand out leaflets at a gay pride march. ("The gay community have sexualised firemen.") Strike it from the records, I say!
― mike t-diva, Saturday, 8 March 2008 14:45 (sixteen years ago) link
That StreetSounds Hi-Energy album is bloody wonderful, by the way. Mixed by the self-same Ian Levin who BANNED "So Macho", indeed.
― mike t-diva, Saturday, 8 March 2008 14:46 (sixteen years ago) link
Why would firemen hand out leaflets at a gay pride march unless they were gay themselves?
― Tuomas, Saturday, 8 March 2008 14:57 (sixteen years ago) link
What I mean, I don't get the "refused to hand out leaflets" part... Are firemen forced to hand out leaflets at gay parades?

Shut up and sleep with me - Sin with Sebastian
― Not the real Village People, Saturday, 8 March 2008 15:10 (sixteen years ago) link
I believe they were job recruitment leaflets, such as might be handed out at other large public festivals, and that the refusal to hand them out brought about discplinary action and a subsequent appeal, and that the money was donated to help cover costs.

That StreetSounds Hi-Energy album is bloody wonderful, by the way.
It is, especially side one - the mix from Countdown (Here I Come)to Skiing In The Snow is one of the gayest moments on disc ever.

This thread needs Jobriath... his "I'm A Man" nearly turned me gay, and I am 100% heterosexual.

Wayne County - Fuck off
"If you don't want to fuck me baby, then baby fuck off" also more or less summarises what I feel about this thread.
