I have to agree.

Let's come up with our own...

1) Queen releases "Innuendo"

Freddie Mercury was so sick he sang most of the vocals on Queens last real studio album while sitting in a wheel chair. Although it does have a bit of a "goodbye" message, most of the album is from such a positive stand point the album comes across as a bitch-slap. You can almost hear Freddie screaming "I'm about to die and I'm still happier than you. Stop whining and love your life, you're not going to live forever."

2) Rough Trade sings "High School confidential"

Carol Pope would joke that only gay people got the joke. It was hard to miss a song sung by a woman about how the blonde bombshell in high school made her "cream my jeans" but most people were so clued out they thought Carol was just a man with a slightly higher voice. Gay audiences ate it up, however, and it still works as a gay anthem of un-requented high school crushes.

3) Frankie goes to Hollywood discovers edging

While most of the UK and the world were laying back in their easy chairs, recovering from punk rock and listening to Michael Jackson and Paul McCartney politely argue over which one of the "the girl" wanted, five young men from Liverpool grabbed radio by the balls, turned it around, stuck amyl nitrate up its nose and fucked it up the ass. Frankie would tell men of the world it was cool to be gay, have hot steamy sex and not cum too fast. We would listen.

4) Boy George shocks America

Not by dressing as a woman. Oddly enough, the shock of that wore off very quickly. But while accepting an award for Best New Artist via sattellite, Boy George called himself a "Drag Queen," thus waking America up from their denial that he was even into guys.

5) George Michael finally comes out

Nothing shocking about that. But gay fans had a giggle at the expense of the rest of America who actually fell for all the making out with girls he did in his videos. Straight people are so clueless.

6) Mika tells gay people they're boring but they should buy his album anyway.

While being interviewed for a cover story on Out magazine, one-hit-wonder Miak commented that "talking about your sexuality is so boring" but still lamented that he didn't have any gay fans. Apparently unaware that simply being "flambouyant" wasn't enough to get a gay audience, Mika insulted the very audience he wanted to get by refusing to come out himself. THAT isn't he moment that rocks. What rocks is how the gay press outed him anyway, told him he was a lame-ass and sent him packing.
