Music Thread

Three categories:

From the last thread, songs with great extended intros.

Next up: Thinking about Eminence Front, I started thinking about the songs I'd like to play when I'm training or plotting to kill my enemies. So, this category is "Songs That Must Be Played While You're Loading Your Magazines With Bullets Before The Final Fight."

Related Category: What commentes are calling "Rollout" songs, songs you play when you're Driving To the Final Fight With Silent Determination.

Stuff that has an urgent, countdown-like feel.

Finally, just to Gay This Up a bit, guilty pleasures.

I know that's an old category but I'm going to be Open and Vulnerable with you guys and list some of the absolute gayest songs I have been obsessed with in the recent past (and still might like!)

The Veronicas, Untouched. I'd like to use the excuse "I thought they were hot and I liked the lesbo vibe" but I don't find them that hot and I'm bored of the lesbo vibe. What is this, 1991? Before busty lesbian porn was easily available on your phone?

No, I just like the song.

This one isn't super embarrassing, but I really did play this song a lot. Like, more than you would think someone older than six would.

I got into Mika's Elle Me Dit because, well, it's in French, so it started (but only started) as a language learning thing.

And yeah, he's totally gay.

But the "language learning" excuse doesn't apply to this English lyrics song by Mika.

And it gets worse: Yeah, I like his take on "Popular" too.

Do I have a gay thing for Mika?

You might wonder, Hey, does this queerbait also like "Popular" from the lavish Broadway musical Wicked?

Yeah, I do. A lot.

I don't think this one is as embarrassing, but it's still embarrassing, and I can't tell you how much I played this song.

If this leaves you unable to even look at me... well, join the f*ckin' club, Pal.
