Just in time for the first peep of spring, an Australian website has tallied the votes of thousands of Aussies to compile a definitive list of the 50 Gayest Songs of All Time. Now, far be it from us to pick fights with our comrades Down Under, but though we agree with many of their choices, it does seem sometimes as if more than just their toilet-bowl water spins the wrong way. Where is the Rufus Wainwright? The Scissor Sisters? The Smiths, for sparklin' out loud?? Surely, we could lose a Kylie (pictured) song or three...
Below, the poll's top 20:
20. Dolly Parton, "9 to 5"
19. Coming Out Crew, "Free, Gay and Happy"
18. Village People, "In the Navy"
17. Frankie Goes To Hollywood, "Relax"
16. Village People, "Macho Man"
15. Judy Garland, "Over The Rainbow"
14. Bronski Beat, "Smalltown Boy"
13. Diana Ross, "I'ÂÂm Coming Out"
12. Cher, "Believe"
11. Gloria Gaynor, "I Am What I Am"
10. Alicia Bridges, "I Love The Nightlife"
9. Madonna, "Vogue"
8. Olivia Netwon-John "Xanadu"
7. Kylie Minogue, "Better The Devil You Know"
6. Pet Shop Boys, "Go West"
5. Kylie Minogue, "Your Disco Needs You"
4. The Weathergirls, "It'ÂÂs Raining Men"
3. Gloria Gaynor, "I Will Survive"
2. Village People, "YMCA"
1. ABBA, "Dancing Queen"
Take this list, readers, and tell us: How would you Gay It Forward?
