A man singing about longing for another lost man... Hmmm.. beautiful and shameless. :) This gay song, Jackie, is by the famous group, where one is gay, one is bisexual and the other is straight.

Jackie left on a cold, dark night
telling me he'd be home,
he sailed the sea for a hundred years
and left me all alone.

Now I've been dead for twenty years
I've been washing the sand
with my ghostly tears
searching the shores for my
Jackie oooh.

And I remember the day
that the young man came
said your Jackie's gone
he's lost in the rain
and I ran to the beach
(laid me down)

You're all wrong, I said
as they stared to the sand,
that man knows the seas
like the back of his hand,
he'll be back sometime
Laughing at you.

I've been waiting all this time,
for my man to come
take his hand in mine
and lead me away to unseen shores.

I've been washing the sand
with my salty tears
searching the shores these long years
and I walked the sea forevermore
till I find my Jackie oooh,

Jackie oooh,
Jackie oooh,
Jackie ooo-oo-ooh.

Funny video. I love it.

I don't have much info on it, and I think this gay parody is great, and there should be a full version of this gay song.. : )

I think this gay song is so trying to be Right Said Fred's I'm Too Sexy. I have not warmed up to this gay song yet. But perhaps you can check it out.. The MV is in youtube. It's kind a stereotyping gays.

I am gay
I like men
I lift weights
I can dance my place
My place is neat
I keep it clean
I floss everyday
I am gay

I work hard
Play even harder
I'm into fashion
Men are my passion

Even when its cold outside
I'll take of my shirt
Lets go for a ride
I'll make you work
I saw you looking at me
I knew then and there you were coming home with me
I'll wash your back and rub your neck
I'll cook you food
and then I'll suck your d**k

Even when its cold outside
I'll take off my shirt
Lets go for a ride
I'll make you work
Even when its cold outside il take off my shirt
Lets go for a ride
I'll make you work, I'll make you work boy, I'll make you work

I am gay
I like men

And i keep it clean

I'll make you work

Oooh.. I made a mistake.. I thought this funny song, My Whole Family Thinks I'm Gay by Bo Burnham is a gay-bashing song... Turned out that it is cute song.. funny. Really.

Every time I go to dinner
Seems like I'm getting a little bit thinner.
I'll sit down at the breakfast table.
I can talk, well they're not able.
When I look at them I find.
There's a single question on their mind.

I wish it could go back to the way it was
It's not easy now because...

My whole family thinks I'm gay,
I guess it's always been that way.
Maybe it's 'cause of the way that I walk
Makes them think I like... boys.

That I like boys.

The goddamn just won't go away.
And I get asked every single day.
But the way they ask it is not a disguise,
Like, "How was your day? Do you like to kiss guys?"

This is the worst,
Baby this was my fear.
Now their opinions are crystal clear.
Because...

My whole family now is shocked.
I'm in the closet, and the door is locked.
Now my glory days are gone
I was John Elway, now I'm Elton John.

My whole now suspects
Watching Spongebob had side-effects.
I'm not gay and that's what I said
If I'm gay hey, God, strike me dead.

That's weird.

Just 'cause I'm on the cheerleading team
Or my birthday party had a Broadway theme.

When I go outside, what do I see?
That the clouds in the sky spell F-A-G.
Because...

I think that God might think I'm gay.
What does He know anyway?
My grandma gave me a present just last year,
And the card said, "Happy Birthday, Queer!"

My whole family thinks I'm fab.
There's a guy's butt hey, Bo, take a stab.
Why doesn't he get women?
There's no other way.
It's 'cause I'm lanky, not 'cause I'm gay, alright?

Not 'cause I'm gay.

Just 'cause I'm afraid of the snow.
Or my favorite color is the rain(Bo)w.
I don't mean to yell, but I feel I must.
'Cause I'm losing the people that I thought I could trust.
Because...

Even my boyfriend thinks I'm gay... Just kidding.

You all probably think I'm gay...
Man this song is counter-productive.
La la la la la la...

Because...
My whole family thinks I'm gay.
What do they know anyway?
You gotta look right through the haze.
Easy-Bake Oven was just a phase.

My whole family thinks I'm queer.
That is all I ever hear.
But I've been as straight as a ramp,
If you don't count Bible camp.

Bible camp.

I'm not gay I swear.

Look at the name of the boy band. Hehehe.. And singing Donna Summer's famous trademark song? This is so gay... I did a research, and the boys are gay. And if you watch the video closely, you can see homoerotic moves between guys. Briefly. Still... better a second than none.

A modest effort - a short gay themed film that talks about a young guy who is obsessed with guys and girls, and cannot seem to keep his eyes away from any that passes by him. Faithfulness is not the young guy's key character.

Okay. Look. I am shallow. I love a gay themed film with beautiful male lead. And I love a gay themed film with beautiful story. Like Latter Days. Like Trick. Like Get Real.

And then, I met Torch Song Trilogy.

There's this Arnold (Harvey Fierstein), an effeminate gay who works as woman impersonator. By my shallow standard, I would not have liked this movie. I fell in love with the movie, the moment the brilliant monologues by Arnold played at the beginning. They were witty. They were catchy. And Harvey was superb.

Arnold met bisexual Ed (Brian Kerwin). They started a hopeless affair, as Ed did not have the courage to confront his sexual orientation. For this, Arnold suffered, and even more, when Arnold caught Ed with another woman.

Then, Arnold met young Alan (Matthew Broderick). Arnold rejected the idea of a relationship at the beginning, but Alan persisted. A beautiful relationship blossomed. However, things were not meant to be for Arnold, when in the midst of trying to set up a family of their own, Alan met a tragedic death, leaving Arnold with their new adopted gay son.

Arnold coped to the best possible, until his mom showed up, forcing Arnold to confront his situation with his mom, Ed and his gay adopted son.

After watching this show, I want to adopt a Jewish family. This movie is a gem.

Torch Song Trilogy won Deauville Film Festival 1989 Audience Award.

In 2006, Kotaro Terauchi directed a commercially successful gay themed dvd film - Boys Love. So popular, that Korato came up with a theater version of Boys Love, with an entirely different story.

Boys Love 2, the gay themed film, was released in 2007, with Yoshikazu Kotani returned as the male lead again. This time, he is a teacher, Aoi. Who has sex with a male prostitute Sora (Atsumi Kanno) when Aoi was dumped by his girlfriend. And Sora turns out to be Aoi's new student. So, drama begins. And with even more drama, when Sora's roommate, Mizuki (Yuki Kawakubo), carries the torch for Sora. But Mizuki is constantly bullied by the school closet, Hanazono (Kazunori Tani).

Halfway watching this movie, I just had to laugh. I thought I was a drama queen at times, but the characters in this movie make me speechless. Aoi gets nervous when he realises that students are not allowed to have phones in school. Saro has a phone, and in his phone - Aoi's number. And Aoi distances himself from Saro because Saro never surrenders the phone to Aoi.

I don't get it with Atsumi Kanno's hair. I find it funny when a guy looks less than ordinary and yet he is being constantly praised as the most popular and looking all that cool.. when in the show, he looked horrible - like an escaped male ghost from Ju-On.

Who I think is hot? The teacher - Yoshikazu Kotani. Or Yuki Kawakubo. Or pan-pacific looking Kazunori Tani. Anyone but Atsumi Kanno. So, I don't get it with this movie poor casting.

And when Mizuki was shunned out, there's hardly any compassion from Saro. I don't get it. I secretly wish the teacher would end up with Mizuki, or even Hanazono.

Watch it, for the love of all the Bishonens (beautiful boys) of Japan in this movie. Ignore Astumi's bad hair.

Sweet.

I don't know the reaction of the gay community on this gay ad - but I was offended by Motorola. Judge it for yourself.

I cannot find enough information on this, but it is well-made gay short documentary to educate the non-gay communities about gays and lesbians.

Gay Bar was a Top 10 hit in the UK, in the year 2003. I personally did not dig this song, but hey, at least it got some attention. This hit was the second release from Electric Six's album Fire.

You!
I wanna take you to a gay bar,
I wanna take you to a gay bar,
I wanna take you to a gay bar, gay bar, gay bar.

Let's start a war, start a nuclear war,
At the gay bar, gay bar, gay bar.
Wow! (Shout out loud)
At the gay bar.

Now tell me do ya, a do ya have any money?
I wanna spend all your money,
At the gay bar, gay bar, gay bar.

I've got something to put in you,
I've got something to put in you,
I've got something to put in you,
At the gay bar, gay bar, gay bar.
Wow! (Shout out loud)

You're a superstar, at the gay bar.
You're a superstar, at the gay bar.
Yeah! you're a superstar, at the gay bar.
You're a superstar, at the gay bar.
Superstar.
Super, super, superstar.

Japan has been generous with Asian gay themed films to feed those who wish to have Asian flavour at times in indulging gay love. We have great films, like Gohatto, Like A Grain of Sand, Hush!, Alumni Reunion etc.

Sukitomo is another Japanese offering on male-to-male love, although in this film, the love is silenced. None of the male leads talked of their feelings. Yoshiko (Hiroki Aiba) carried a torch for the boxer friend, Tomokazu (Takumi Saito), who felt the same in return, although none of them tried to act on it. Misao (Komatsu Airi) remained the only one who could ruin any hope of Tomokazu to be with Yoshiko, although at the end, she was the one who reunited them. Misao was in love with Tomokazu, her stepfather's adopted son, and hence, initially tried to separate the two guys.

Not an outstanding film, but at least it did not carry the typical manga-style comical performance. Still, an okay film to enjoy.

From the land that brought us marvelous Beautiful Thing, Get Real, Queer As Folk (UK), Metrosexuality and Gimme Gimme Gimme, here comes another great gay themed tv series - Beautiful People. When I watched the first episode, I was overjoyed to know that it was written by Jonathan Harvey, who wrote us the wonderful Beautiful Thing (1996).

The tv series focuses on gay Simon Doonan in his years of growing up in a dysfunctional family. Here, we have the adult Simon (cute Samuel Barnett) relating to his younger years, played out by a young Simon (Luke Ward-Wilkinson). He was surrounded by a slutty sister, alcoholic mom, blind aunt and a father suspected of two-timing his mother. His best friend hung out with him often, to rate the clothes of the people on the street.

This gay tv series is witty and funny. Wonderfully written, and I cannot wait for another week to catch a new episode. This is definitely one of the best gay product of 2008. Even in the general ranking, it is one of the best tv products of 2008.

Bodey McDodey is a new student at West Beach, and he is a homophobe. So, ultimately, he challenges the beloved incumbent Student President, Sissy Frenchfry, for the upcoming election. This gay short film won the following awards -

Grand Prize Jury Award - PlanetOut Short Movie Awards
Audience Award - PlanetOut Short Movie Awards
Audience Award, Best Male Short - Long Island Gay and Lesbian Film Festival
Audience Award, Best Short - Barcelona Gay and Lesbian International Film Festival

In 1999, the group Allister released the album Dead Ends & Girlfriends, where there was this gay song Jacob, or known on the net as Jacob Thinks I'm Gay.

Jacob sits outside the door
and runs into the class when I sit down
He takes a seat right next to me
I never thought about it until now

And even if a boy likes me
it's not the end of the world
He may be a really nice guy
but I only like girls
On the computer I got a letter
Jacob says he wants to know me better
A little flattering but way too strange
that Jacob thinks I'm gay

Jacob walks right up to me
before I get a foot out of the door
he takes a second look at me
I guess he wanted just a little more

And even if a boy likes me
it's not the end of the world
He may be a really nice guy
but I only like girls
On the computer I got a letter
Jacob says he wants to know me better
A little flattering but way too strange
that Jacob thinks I'm gay

Na Na Na Na Na...

And even if a boy likes me
it's not the end of the world
He may be a really nice guy
but I only like girls
On the computer I got a letter
Jacob says he wants to know me better
A little flattering but way too strange
that Jacob thinks I'm gay

In 1986, Kenny Loggins had a hit on the Billboard Hot 100 with a song from the Top Gun soundtrack, called Playing With The Boys. It might seem innocent, but when it comes from a movie that is quoted to have gay innuendos, and Tom Cruise was the lead star, this song became a suspect. Does it really mean the way the lyrics was written? And this is no Elton John. It's by Kenny Loggins. Hmmm.. Talk about Truth or Dare... So, is Playing with the Boys a gay song or not?

I'd say it was the right time
To walk away
When dreaming takes you nowhere
It's time to play
Bodies working overtime
Your money don't matter
Time keeps ticking
Someone's on my mind (on my mind)

I'm moving in slow motion
Feels so good
It's a strange anticipation
Knock, knock, knocking on wood
Bodies working overtime
It's Man against man
All that ever matters
Is baby who's ahead in the game
Funny but it's always the same

Playing, playing with the boys
Staying, playing with the boys
After chasing sunsets
One of life's simple joys
Is playing with the boys

She said it was the wrong thing
For me to do
I said it's just a boys' game
That Girls play too
My heart is working overtime
In this kind of game
People get hurt
I'm thinkin that the people is me
If you want to find me, I'll be

Playing, playing with the boys
Staying, playing with the boys
After chasing sunsets
One of life's simple joys
...is the boys

I don't want to be the moth around your fire
...with the boys
I don't want to be obsessed by my desire
Your shining, Your smiling
I've seen enough
...with the boys
I'm staying here
You play too rough

Playing, playing with the boys
I'll be staying, playing with the boys
After chasing sunsets
One of life's simple joys
Is playing with the boys
Playing with the boys
Playing
Playing
Playing
Playing

This song peaked at No. 60.

I watched this film several years ago, and did not pay much attention to it, as I thought the film was concentrating too much on the female actress, and Leslie Jordan as a cross-dresser??? Nah... Not my interest.

But I did note Kirk Geiger (Ty) as the gay son. And I always have a soft spot for Olivia Newton-John. So, since that Logoonline is airing the tv series, and AfterElton's members had voted this movie as one of the Top 50 gay films (if I am not mistaken), I thought it was time to watch it again. This time, to pay as much attention as possible.

Sordid Lives is a gay film about dealing with one's sexuality. Brother Boy (Leslie Jordan) institutionalized for more than 20 years, because he likes boys. This makes it difficult for his nephew, Ty, to come out. So, when Ty's grandma passes away, it is a difficult decision for Ty to come back to his hometown.

There are a number of fun and funny characters throughout this movie, and I am glad that I sat through to watch this movie for the second time. You know what? I am having a different opinion of Leslie Jordan this time. Without him, I think this movie is less fun.

And Kirk Geiger is simply gorgeous. Attention! Butt-view available... Hehehe... Yum.

And now, I can watch Sordid Lives, the tv series, without feeling lost of who is who, and why this and that. : )

Awards:
Sordid Lives won Best Feature awards in Austin Gay & Lesbian International Film Festival 2000, Philadelphia International Gay & Lesbian Film Festival 2000 and New York International Independent Film & Video Festival (2000 Summer). Leslie Jordan won Best Actor award in New York International Independent Film & Video Festival (2000 Summer). The Soundtrack was awarded (Audience Award) Outstanding Soundtrack by L.A. Outfest (2000).

When I first read the first few chapters of the gay novel Boston Boys Club, I could not help but to link the characters to the QAF characters - Brian, Michael and Emmett. But as the pages turn further, Tommy, Rico and Kyle were established in their own foundation, and less linked to my obsession of QAF.

Tommy believes in the one-and-only. Unfortunately, he is not that lucky in the love department, and 30 is catching up. So, he hangs out at Club Cafe every Thursday night, because Thursday night is the busiest night, where there are more gays than other nights. There, he meets Mikey, who seems to be perfect in every way... until Mikey drinks at Club Cafe. There's when Tommy's tested on how much he is willing to bear with Mikey's alternate personality.

Rico is Tommy's best friend. A muscle stud who is very much like Samantha of Sex & the City, where sex is mightier than love. Rico does not like Mikey. And neither does he like the idea of guys hanging around after sex. Until a certain captain parks his boat in Boston...

Kyle wants to have attention all the time. But he is already a fading star, since his days in a reality tv show, where he was caught naked in the bathtub sandwiched between his boyfriend and a pick-up guy. Kyle needs a miracle, and desperately seeks to be a star again, until his blood test result comes out positive.

Boston Boys Club by Johnny Diaz is a light-reading book material. Enjoyable.

You know what I like about this gay novel? The flashback to the 80's themes - TVs, Movies, Music. Facts of Life, The Cover-up, Dynasty. Holding Out For A Hero, That's What Friends Are For, Friends And Lovers. You know what I prefer not to like about this gay book? Andrea, Betsy and thousand other girls' names, when I was eager for more connection between Jack, Brad and Joey.

This gay themed book is about Jack, growing up, denying that he is like that. So, in 3/4 denial, he tries to date girls, and one after another, the girls end the relationship with him. And it is not making it easy for him to be labeled as a Band Fag, along with his best friend, Brad. And while Jack is good at scoring A's, he is nowhere as popular as Brad.

When his younger-years best friend, Joey, returns to the neighborhood and is all good-looking and all that, Jack has to confront his feeling for guys. And when Jack eventually asks Joey what if he kisses him, Joey says he will return the kiss.. which makes Jack chickens out.. until Truth-or-Dare's Dare leads to the Joey Kiss.

Somewhere along the line, Jack experiments with Brad, but the denial and frustration shake their best-buddies relationship.

I enjoy Band Fag! by Frank Anthony Polito. But really, what's with the thousand girls?

A young handsome gay man walks through night lives of people on the street and in a club. This is a black and white gay short film.
