| Life is a Jigsaw ☯ Full Member   Gender: ♂ Orientation: Gay Out Status: Out to (pretty much) everyone. Location: Shropshire, England Age: 17 Posts: 536 Join Date: Apr 2009 |  LGBT Related Songs I just thought it would be good to post songs with lyrics (or I suppose a tune though I don't quite get how that would work) which you feel could relate to LGBT people or issues in a humourous or serious way~ My ideas: Ain't No Man - Dina Carroll
Broken Strings - James Morrison ft. Nelly Furtado

Location: Johnson City, TN Age: 20 Posts: 1,633 Join Date: Jun 2010 | Re: LGBT Related Songs It's nothing LGBT-related, but I find myself listening to Barbara Streisand's "The Way He Makes Me Feel" a lot.  Also, "Defying Gravity" from Wicked... Take out all the dialogue from the play, and just use the song itself (kind of like the Glee cover), and I usually interpret it to be about the coming out process and going against cultural norms, etc.

And yet you start to recoil Heavy words are so lightly thrown But still I'd leap in front of a flying bullet for you So, what difference does it make ? So, what difference does it make ? It makes none But now you have gone And you must be looking very old tonight The devil will find work for idle hands to do I stole and I lied, and why ? Because you asked me to ! But now you make me feel so ashamed Because I've only got two hands Well, I'm still fond of you, oh-ho-oh So, what difference does it make ? Oh, what difference does it make ? Oh, it makes none But now you have gone And your prejudice won't keep you warm tonight Oh, the devil will find work for idle hands to do I stole, and then I lied Just because you asked me to But now you know the truth about me You won't see me anymore Well, I'm still fond of you, oh-ho-oh But no more apologies No more, no more apologies Oh, I'm too tired I'm so sick and tired And I'm feeling very sick and ill today But I'm still fond of you, oh-ho-oh Oh, my sacred one ... Oh ... Cracking Song  |

| Newbie Regular Member   Gender: Female Orientation: kinsey 2 Location: Europe Posts: 6 Join Date: Jul 2010 | Re: LGBT Related Songs I think that at least two Bloc Party’s songs are connected with lgbt issues. The first one: I still remember I still remember How you looked That afternoon There was only you You said it was just like a full moon Blood beats faster in our veins We left our trousers by the canal And our fingers they almost touched You should have asked me for it I would have been brave You should have asked me for it How could I say no? And our love could have soared Over playgrounds and rooftops Now every park bench screams your name I kept your tie I'd have gone wherever you wanted And on that teacher's training day We wrote our names on every train Laughed at the people off to work So monochrome and so lukewarm And I could feel our days where becoming night I could feel your heart beating across the grass We should have run, I would go with you anywhere I should have kissed you by the water I still remember And the next one: Kreuzberg There is a wall that runs right through me Just like this city I will never be joined What is this love? Why can I never hold it? Did it really run out? In those strangers bedrooms I have decided at 25 That something must change Saturday night, in East Berlin We took the U-Bahn to the east side gallery I was sure that id found love with this one lying with me Crying again in the Hauptbahnof I have decided at 25 That something must change After sex , the bitter taste Been fooled again, the search continues Concerned mothers of the west, Teach your sons, how to truly love.

here's a great song by Heather Small called Proud:
I look into the window of my mind Reflections of the fears I know I've left behind I step out of the ordinary I can feel my soul ascending I'm on my way Can't stop me now And you can do the same (yeah) What have you done today to make you feel proud? It's never too late to try What have you done today to make you feel proud? You could be so many people If you make that break for freedom What have you done today to make you feel proud? Still so many answers I don't know (there are so many answers) Realize that to question is how we grow (to question is to grow) So I step out of the ordinary I can feel my soul ascending I'm on my way Can't stop me now You can do the same (yeah) What have you done today to make you feel proud? It's never too late to try What have you done today to make you feel proud? You could be so many people If you make that break for freedom What have you done today to make you feel proud? (yeah) We need a change (Yeah) Do it today (yeah) I can feel my spirit rising (change, yeah) We need a change (yeah) So do it today (yeah) 'Cause I can see a clear horizon What have you done today to make you feel proud? (to make you feel proud) (let me hear ya X3)So what have you done today to make you feel proud? (yeah)'Cause you could be so many people Just make that break for freedom So what have you done today to make you feel proud? | ||||
