Brave Man - Will Young
Features a pre-op FTM and the tone of the song (as well as the video itself) is really hard hitting.

Also someone else mentioned Troye Sivan and all of his songs have male pronouns as the love interest what with him being gay, they're pretty nice to listen to.

 

She's actually a youtuber and I swear, those songs are life. :icon_bigg

Bro I know a song that is directed towards LGBT it's called same love by Macklemore Ryan Lewis& Mary lambert very inspirational about same sex marriage

 

One More Hour by Sleater-Kinney (tied for my favorite song, actually). It is based on Corin Tucker and Carrie Brownstein's (both are bisexual) breakup.

Spectrum by boyinaband

 

The above mentioned Spectrum is pure greatness.

Elliphant's One More & Step Down have gay video spots (and are both ass-kicking songs).

Krewella's Human has gay undertones.

Listen to everything by Adore Delano (especially I Adore U, DTF, and Jump the Gun)

Benny's Little Game deserves another mention.

CircusP's Lie (feat. Megurine Luka) is a lesbian break-up song.

Ryuuu's Secret (feat. Megurine Luka) has trans-undertones and is absolutely amazing.

Alluring Secret -Black Vow- is a Japanese song about lesbians, forbidden love and transexuality.

And probably others I can't quite recall now...

 

I haven't read far back in this thread but here are my suggestions for songs/artists.

Species by Eliot Sumner is a great song about being forced into a box in terms of gender, and the artist does not identify with any gender.

St Vincent and Grimes also do not identify with any gender and all of their stuff is pretty good too.

Girls like Girls by Haley Kiyoko (possibly an obvious one)

Vidrar Vel Til Loftarasa by Sigur Rós. I honestly don't know the meaning of the words but the video is about a young gay boy and the lead singer, Jónsi is also gay.

 

There's PVRIS, lead singer is a lesbian. Not only is she gorgeous, she's a great singer/song writer:

Then there's Heirsound, lead singer's also lesbian: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-oaenmSdC7Q

Tegan and Sara's newest song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=niv4vkipc6M

Sick of Sarah, lead is lesbian, and there is another lesbian in it and one other is bisexual: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YEVFMde0CM4

be who you're are, not who you're not, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind

It's technically not an LGBT song by a long shot, but I was listening to this a lot around the time I got the call of my life from my therapist that got me to start T--so it fits a lot for me.

And if for some reason the video isn't coming up, it's "Something's Coming" from West Side Story

Perhaps ''Kidz'' by take that:

''Welcome to the future of your world ...
There'll be trouble when the kids come out ...
We're not sure where the fallout blows ...
They are on the streets tonight, they are making peace tonight"

 

I hate u , I love u by gnash feat Olivia O'Brian.

it feels LGBT to me even if it isn't meant to be.

it's that crushing crush that you can never have.


this bit (eek):

" I hate you, I love you,
I hate that I love you
Don't want to but I can't put nobody else above you
I hate you, I love you,
I hate that I want you
You want her, you need her
And I'll never be her

All alone I watch you watch her
Like she's the only girl you've ever seen
You don't care you never did
You don't give a damn about me
Yeah all alone I watch you watch her
She is the only thing you ever see
How is it you never notice
That you are slowly killing me"

Not sure how many will understand it as it is in Spanish, but I loved this song since I first heard it.

 

Just created an LGBT playlist from songs I like, and here are 2 I don't think I said before.

Viz by Le Tigre

Good Things by Sleater-Kinney (recently became one of my favorite songs)

 

Under Clery's Clock

Brilliant song by The Radiators from Space, which include Phillip Chevron who later joined the Pogues.

 

I don't know, if someone said it already, but Adam Lambert - Outlaws of Love https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=1DTYC02ZtPk. I love this song, even though it's a bit sad

 

Cowboys Are Frequently Secretly Fond of Each Other ;-)


Youtube Video

 

Mann gegen Mann by Rammstein
I think the video is trying to present the "stereotypical perverted gay man" but it's very much not homophobic in any way
Viewer discretion advised. Naked people.

Make it Stop - Rise Against

Kickass song in honor of LGBT teenagers who committed suicide
