What are your favorite gay anthems?

There’s nothing that gets me and a gay bar more hyped than a weather report about a storm of men coming through.

Tom Robinson Band sings Glad To Be Gay - recorded in 1977.

Dianna Ross's "I Am Coming Out!" and  Ru Paul's hit of many years ago.  ...sorry I can't remember its title.

A lasting memory for me is hearing Supermodel by RuPaul at my first pride event in West Hollywood years ago.

Diana Ross - Ain't no Mountain High Enough.  I saw her in concert in the 80's.  She was amazing!

There is a Latin version by Thalia that is a good tribute to this song.

I find this Spotify Top 50 of Gayest songs of All Time to be very appropriate:

Not sure if this a gay anthem or not, but 'Band of Gold' gets my head bopping.  So I guess it's a bi-curious anthem in my case.  Sorry, no idea here how to post a clip of the song 🙄

I remember how controversial this song was in 1981. All kinds of groups threatened to boycott the radio stations that played it....

Just found this by accident. Definitely worthy of the title "gay anthem". I had to play it a second time to hear the lyrics though, all the naked men in the video were so darned distracting!

I take it he had to pay royalties to the Weather Girls? Or is this considered a parody?

If you like adventure, don't you wait to enter
The recruiting office fast
Don't you hesitate, there is no need to wait
They're signing up new seamen fast
Maybe you are too young to join up today
But don't you worry 'bout a thing
For I'm sure there will be always a good navy
Protecting the land and sea

I must confess, I had many dreams through the years of being the ship's doctor on a submarine. All those men with no opportunity for release for months at a time... 😜 Though a Navy friend of mine said they wouldn't hesitate to surface and have a helicopter get me if ever I got caught!

Can’t believe nothing by the smiths on the top 50 gayest songs of all time or the cure for that matter.

There is men-on-men sex on a submarine just like there is in penal institutions.  Most of the men probably don't identify as gay, but when there is no chance for sex with a woman there are some men who will certainly have sex with a man rather than only masturbating.  I would share details about how I know about either of these things but I don't want to share stories here with too much personally identifying information.
