“Without changing a part of me, how do I get to heaven?” he sings.Īnchored by a lonely guitar line, Dodie’s “Sick of Losing Soulmates” captures a blossoming relationship bogged down by the weight of the past. The personal and the political truly collide, as images of LGBT rights pioneer Harvey Milk, Pride rallies, AIDS marches brush up against Sivan embracing a man in the rain. The rich history of sacrifice that our queer forebears faced lives within the modern-day LGBT experience, as Sivan astutely shows in the music video for the Blue Neighbourhood favorite. The female gaze is alive and well, as Atlanta rapper Kodie Shane spins the objectification of women in rap into something very, very queer on the video for her 2017 single “Bounce Back.” It’s characteristically dark and brooding, like most sensual rap music videos, but Shane’s admiration of the feminine form becomes something radical here. Straus is mustachioed in Sharpie, has flowers in her hair, and, all the while, presents a vision of love that’s so quaint and lovely that it’s impossible to not get swept up in it all. You want to be immersed in the world of “1950” - at least in the way that Mikaela Straus, more famously known as the retro-pop revivalist King Princess, portrays it. (Catch guitarist Steve Lacy’s boyfriend, too, as they wear matching yellow shirts in his rocking guitar solo sequence.) Frontwoman Syd playfully tries to vie for a gal’s attention by throwing rocks at her window and serenading her during band practice, and, well, it works. The Internet’s members all live in a house together, and they’re all pining for someone. Think of this brightly-hued video as every ‘90s sitcom blended together into a four-minute jam.

Wait until the end, though: There’s a roadside kiss between our two heroes as passionate as you’re ever to see in a music video.
#BLACK GAY FUCKING TECHNO MUSIC PATCH#
A Thelma and Louise-style adventure between two lovebirds - played by queer pop idols Hayley Kiyoko and Kehlani - goes south when the couple’s getaway car breaks down in an unknown patch of desert. #20Gayteen reached its peak when the steamy, fan service-y “What I Need” dropped. It makes you wish that there were more unabashedly joyous representations of trans desire in media. Diamond became a critical darling with the release of “American Pie,” a scorching, Stax-like blues number about finding her place in society as a trans woman, On “Keisha Complexion,” she has so much fun playing the coy vixen and nothing more.

Dressed in a barely-there negligee, she becomes a steaming sexpot, turning one man’s curiosity into full-on lust. Soul singer Shea Diamond’s own revolution will be televised.

(Catch the full “emotion picture” Monáe? released in conjunction with the album to witness the two kissing.) After the release of the Prince-indebted jam “Make Me Feel,” “Pynk” etches a clearer portrait of Monáe? and Thompson’s largely-private love life. As the melancholy song soundtracks a funeral service for his spouse, Smith reminisces about happier, more blissful times, as the song’s epic third act blossoms into the wedding that was held at the same church.įrom the iconic pussy pants (which were on sale for a hot second) to, well, Tessa Thompson’s head poking out of the aforementioned pants, Janelle Monáe’s visual for the Dirty Computer highlight is a testament to the power of pink. Sam Smith’s elegiac ballad gets a beautifully somber music video to match. Shura ends up falling for her beautiful lab partner gal, and her brother makes moves on the jock - on a soccer field, no less. Queer bliss ensues, however, when the plan goes awry. For Shura, it’s the pretty-boy jock, and for her brother, the even-prettier female classmate. In the Set It Up-esque visual, Shura and her (real-life) brother conspire to win over their long-time crushes.

Shura’s vision of high school on “What’s It Gonna Be?” is romanticized, somewhat implausible, and, as a result, way better than most queer people’s lived experience of their teenage years. To this day, Aguilera continues to advocate for LGBTQ people, sharing the stage during her most recent Liberation tour with drag icons like Lady Bunny and Carmen Carrera and donating the proceeds from her 2016 single “Change” to the families affected by the horrific shooting at Orlando’s Pulse nightclub that year. When the video for “Beautiful” debuted in 2002, Christina Aguilera broke new ground for trans and queer visibility by bringing to light the isolation that comes with living and loving as an LGBTQ person. 50 Top LGBTQ Anthems: Critic's Picks (Updated 2018)
