Great song <3 I've listen to it a thousand times but I had never seen the video before and I loved it: it looks so fun!! So full of energy, great dancers and fun outfits: all so very 80s!! <3

My personal pick for Pride Month music would be our (Italian) 70s pride icon Raffella Carrà with Tanti Auguri

(Lyrics translation to English here)

Yay! Thank you for the suggestion. I have bookmarked it for next Monday. I love your icon. It is perfect for summer.

Apologies, but you are getting a list:

"Born The Way" Lady Gaga
"She Keeps Me Warm" Mary Lambert
"We Can't Stop" Miley Cyrus
"Ken&barbie" Kate Gill
"You Need to Calm Down" Taylor Swift
"Twin Size Mattress" The Front Bottoms
"Take Your Mama" Scissor Sisters
"I Kissed a Girl" Jill Sobule

Cliche choices, all of them, but my Pride playlist is basically heavy dance beats, sapphic longing, and the occasional other thing.

Also, I do love the weather girls and remember this video from when I was glued to MTV as much as humanly possible.

I know some of these but not all of them so I will check them out before Monday! Thank you!
