Australia’s gay and lesbian community celebrated the 30th anniversary of Mardi Gras in a very unique way this year. They voted for the gayest songs of all time. The results are in, and Aussies fared pretty well on this camp catalogue compiled by SameSame.
The Minogue sisters have always been gay icons, and they both scored spots on the list. Dannii’s only real hit “This Is It” made it to number 35, while Kylie scored a doubler with “Better the Devil You Know” at number 7 and “Your Disco Needs You” at number 5.
From gay icons to proud gay Aussies, the late great Peter Allen’s “I Go To Rio” was at number 33.
Fresh from her performance at the Mardi Gras parade, Olivia Newton-John was sitting pretty in the top 10, with “Xanadu” at number 8.
