[Thomas P 18,479]

#2 is not good enough! It deserves to be at number 1, I mean the song has literally saved lives!

 

Back on topic: I surprisingly actually knew 20 of those songs, and even more surprising is that I knew Lets have a kiki. So like I guess that means im like a super gay 15 year old high schooler ready to **** up the world.

I stan for Born This Way but it doesn't deserve to be #2  It maybe deserves to be in the top ten, but not #2.

Slay at "True Colors" making it on the list

38. "Firework," Katy Perry, 2010

When you look at her one-two punch of her femme-bashing "Ur So Gay" and her exhibitionist faux-lesbian "I Kissed A Girl," in a post-Gaga era, this song felt more opportunistic than authentic. But Perry has seemingly become more progressive and it would be hard to find a pride parade not playing this booming (pun intended) anthem.

Born this way should have been #1 and keshas We R Who We R should have been higher 

[Lord Temptation 11,209]

Born This Way should be number zero. It's beyond lists. It's a commandment.

[ThisGuyTony 29,615]

Not All the Lovers on the list over Spinning Around or Your Disco Needs You.  

OT: Slay Born This Way.  

[SKANK 14,288]

Whenever Born This Way is featured on a list of gay anthems I feel it should be tied with Carl Bean's I Was Born This Way. Carl's song may not have had the same cultural impact as Gaga's, but it came first, and arguably is a better song. Just think it deserves a shout out.

#Justice4DancingQueen

It's way too low on the list.

#Justice4BohemianRhapsody

A song from 1975 with over 247 Million views on youtube.

When will Born This Way?

Fun fact, the article used the word queen 12 times. LOL

#2. "Born This Way," Lady Gaga, 2011 

Inspired by the empowering music of the ‘90s, Gaga told Billboard that she wanted to create a "freedom record" that didn’t beat around the bush: "I want to write my this-is-who-the-****-I-am anthem, but I don't want it to be hidden in poetic wizardry and metaphors.” She followed through, with lyrics like, “No matter gay, straight or bi / Lesbian, transgendered life / I’m on the right track, baby / I was born to survive.” Fans responded positively, as the song debuted at No.1 on the Hot 100.

 

 

Congrats, but dont forget watch masterpiece The Edge Of Glory!
