    Quite a lot of Scissor Sisters songs, as well as this song:
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TwfGKEIn5xw

    It's Iceland's Eurovision entry this year, it's SO catchy and the first time I didn't really recognise that it was about gay rights, but paired with the video it's so obvious. They don't mention LGBT, but again, it's SO OBVIOUS. I'm pretty sure this a "f--- you, Putin" song.
    Also does anyone else think that Pollaponk (the singers) look like The Wiggles? I think they're even a kids band in Iceland.

    Of course, a lot of The Butchies and Uh Huh Her and maybe La Roux.

    And one song people probably overlook "Love Lockdown" by Kanye West.

    I thought that too! My mum said they look more like Showaddywaddy though, so we called them the ShowaddyWiggles..

    We thought they would win as a kind of f*** you Russia from the rest of Europe- especially considering the number of pride flags I saw on TV :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:ride:

    Not sure if anyone posted this yet, but Jay Brannan has a lot of LGBT songs.

    • Rob Me Blind
    • The Spanglish Song
    • Half-Boyfriend
    • Housewife
    • Ever After Happily
    And so on.

    The popular "Somebody Told Me" by The Killers is also about the singer's ex-girlfriend being a lesbian (or at least bisexual).

    I bet this song has already been mentioned here, anyways that's the french version

    [yt]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B-SKt4OPSsE[/yt]

    This is the spanish version of the song

    Anyways it's a really beautiful song from the 80s by Spanish group Mecano and reached number one in Spain and multiple countries in Latin America, and there is a lot more history to the song as well causing controversy at the time with the Catholic church as well....there's also an Italian version of the song but no English version I think....

    Every song by BriaAndChrissy. And "Let it Go" from Frozen and "Break Free" by Ariana Grande seem to me like the PERFECT coming-out songs! :slight_smile:

    I don't know if it's been mentioned, but there's a beautiful song called "Two Men In Love" by The Irrepressibles that I absolutely adore. Discovered it like a month ago on youtube by accident. It was used in a dedication video I was watching.

    I'm new here and love this thread. :smilewave

    Some of you may also be interested in this thread about LGBT-themed songs: Acclaimed Music Forums • View topic - LGBT-themed Songs

    It's from another forum (am I allowed to post that here?). Many of the wonderful suggestions in this thread are on there, and more.
