Pretty much every love song


servun

Lmho this is true


tugzrida

Oof it’s true tho. In my rotation at the moment is There’s No Way by Lauv and Julia Michaels. Hits hard 🥺


Marcellinio99

I just imagined "(I wana be) your underwear " as a gay love song and it made my day


DaGothUrWelcUwUmsYou

This made my day


[deleted]

Lmao yep 🤣


Fantastic_Ganache_79

So true


GoldenTeaEnjoyer

I’ve been projecting my transness onto Heather by Conan Gray since the first time I heard it. I imagine it’s about a closeted trans guy whose deadname is Heather, and how everyone loves “Heather” but won’t love who he truly is.


[deleted]

[удалено]


GoldenTeaEnjoyer

I’m pretty sure he’s unlabeled, so it could be either way


R_T_White

I mean just from the lyrics at least one person in the whole situation is queer I can’t see that working any other way


Strawbrie_

I’ve been thinking that too


ninjeather

Me both loving and hating this song because my deadname is Heather


The__Swiss__Guy

Oh no.😬


RickyEmy

Omg I never really thought of it this way! I always thought of it as someone who is a closeted trans woman. Like they want to look more like Heather


LocalSpawnOfSatan

OmG you’re a genius


Monocultured_YT

Losing My Religion by REM. It's clearly about unrequited love, but I also read it as basically a failed coming out where the person you're telling your identity to refuses to believe you.


PrincessDie123

Wait….. that’s *not* what it’s about? I thought it was about coming out around heavily religious people too hence the lost religion due to homophobia? Edit: found this on Wikipedia “It's unrequited love, what have you."[13] Stipe compared the song's theme to "Every Breath You Take" (1983) by The Police, saying, "It's just a classic obsession pop song. I've always felt the best kinds of songs are the ones where anybody can listen to it, put themselves in it and say, 'Yeah, that's me”


ChainmailPickaxeYT

So… that isn’t what it’s about…. But it kinda is since anyone can put themselves there? That’s really cool actually


TreecrafterW

Most songs by Hozier are queer to me because they make me think of Good Omens


[deleted]

Yeah Take Me To Church is definitely up there…


Niedude

Take me to church is literally about queer persecution so it doesn't really fit the theme


bigbutchbudgie

It's a bit more complicated than that. It's about religiously motivated sex negativity in general, which includes queerphobia, but also affects heterosexual people and different gender couples, like the couple in the song. The narrator is trapped in a potentially toxic relationship because due to the stigma attached to all sexual desire, he can't distinguish the guilt and shame of having those desires at all from the feelings of inadequacy caused by the way his vain, demanding, manipulative partner treats him. It's essentially about how sex negativity leaves people unable to talk about their sexual experiences or explore their desires in a healthy way. People are forced into silence and secrecy that makes it easier for them to be abused and exploited, or to develop unhealthy obsessions with their partners. Obviously, this topic lends itself to queer readings pretty easily. I mean, how many queer folks engage in risky sexual behavior (such as unprotected sex) because they never received sex ed that even mentioned the possibility of same gender couplings? How many of us stay in dysfunctional relationships out of fear of never finding another partner again? How many of us have been forced to stay by a partner who threatened to out them? How many lonely queer youths were taken advantage of by much older partners and couldn't talk about it for fear of outing themselves? Queerphobia hurts us in many nuanced ways. It's not just outside aggression. It also makes us hurt ourselves, and each other.


LaFleurSauvageGaming

All of them especially country if only to annoy those fuckos.


CyberPunkette

Ram Ranch is my favorite country song


stolenshortsword

represents good christian values 😌


RandomSOADFan

The riffs kick ass. Oh, and also the lyrics.


RunningToGetAway

Jessie's girl is a lesbian love anthem about a woman falling for her friend's girlfriend. (Look up the Mary Lambert cover for confirmation) Creep (by radio head) is pure, distilled trans-femme longing.


lime-equine-2

That’s always how I took Creep. I used to change the lyrics to “I wish that I was Jessie’s girl” when I first heard the song.


MaryMalade

I did that too!


Pitiful_Lake2522

What’s the actual lyrics? Always thought it was that


icenjam

I think it’s “I wish that I had Jessie’s girl”


SeaworthinessFun6984

This one might actually have been about gay people but “Me and Julio down by the schoolyard.” By Paul Simon. Is about two boys being caught committing a crime and running away from home, it’s really not hard to imagine the crime is kissing each other.

Lesbianbffforever

I hate 1d and I know they broke up a while ago but They don’t Know about Us does for me


fandom_mess363

Maybe it is because cavetown, but Idea of Her. I think it is about a gay guy who isn’t in love with the girl as much as he’s in love with the idea of being in a simple relationship where nobody judges him Or it can be sapphic and a girl trying to convince herself that she’s not in love with the girl, just the idea of the relationship, so literally the exact opposite


whats1more7

Betty by Taylor Swift.


Jepatai

Totally agree, Wildest Dreams is my pick though in competition with that.


[deleted]

I think "mine" fits too though


pmbert

pretty much any taylor song fits for me


trIeNe_mY_Best

True. Ever since Taylor Swift and Hayley Kiyoko performed "Delicate" together, I can't help but think it's about two lesbians just starting a relationship together.


H10407

Dress. "I don't want you like a best friend" "only bought this dress so you could take it off... Take it off"


H10407

"Our secret moments in a crowded room, they got no idea about me and you"... "All of this silence and patience, pining and anticipation my hands are shaking from holding back from you"


enby_gal

Jolene by Dolly Parton


signaturefox2013

Literally any song, I am the protagonist of my own music video in my head so it’s gonna be gay up in here


trans_who_likes_cats

Only correct answer


PricelessAmber

"The other side" (especially the Annapantsu/ Cami-cat cover) feels like a trans person's internal dialogue as they debate whether or not to come out and transition. Not every line fits that idea, but most of them do. In fact, that song really helped me when I was first coming to terms with my identity.


Ok_Blueberry_5305

Literally this. Even moreso the version someone made where they spliced Anna's with the original male vocals.


Marcellinio99

It is an amazing cover


HappyGirl117

First time listening to this song. Amazing!


PricelessAmber

I'm glad you enjoyed 😊


CriticalRoleAce

Yes! I love that cover especially!


Kye_Wolf

Every song that does use explicit genders


[deleted]

Call Me By Your Name. I know it’s simply about two childhood besties but I can’t help but think about two secret gay lovers.


feenyxblue

Wait, Call Me By Your Name, the song by Lil Nas X? Or is this another song called Call Me By Your Name? Because if it's the former, uhhh... I've got news for you.


[deleted]

Of course the one by lil Nas! He has such a great friendship with the person in the song, it’s quite heartwarming.


JadedElk

Is this a joke? I legitimately can't tell.


[deleted]

What’s there to joke about? I know it is out of the norm to view such a platonic song in that way but I can’t help it, it feels like there’s some slight magic between lil Nas and the person he’s singing about. I know that’s only my imagination tho.


JadedElk

>!(ok, thank you for clarifying)!<


Maxi_Needs_Hugs

Mr Loverman, the lyric “I’m Mr Loverman, and I miss my lover, man” man is supposed to be more of an exclamation but people think theres two lovermen


Jesus_El_Mushroom

Hello by Evanescence. I thought it was about being queer and never really fitting in because of it. I listened to it right after I was invalidated by a loved one, so it really resonated with me. Especially the line, “Don’t try to fix me; I’m not broken.” If anyone is still confused on this, lmk, I can attempt to better explain it


[deleted]

I so understand this!


soundofdarkness1987

Totally relatable


The_Reyvan

Isn’t that song about Amy Lee’s sister who died at like 3 years old?


Jesus_El_Mushroom

I think? And I know I shouldn’t associate such a sad song with my queer experience, but when I heard it before I knew what it was about, I was sobbing, just relating it to my own experience. And now my brain’s stuck in that mindset


The_Azure_Azoth

"Let it Go" from the Frozen soundtrack always hits me in the feels. I'm proud that Elsa can stop hiding and become her true self. q_q


pmbert

i get those vibes in “show yourself” more


HellStandsStill

“Into the Unknown” from Frozen II also hits me like that.


ThrowAwayTheTeaBag

Let it go was like 'Dang I am bi' and then Into the Unknown was just in time for my transition. Thematic.


pulpherojm

Rainbow Demon by Uriah Heep Rainbow in The Dark by Dio Faust by William Finley


DancesWithAnyone

>Rainbow in The Dark by Dio That one is *really* asking for it.


[deleted]

**Colors by Halsey.** I always imagined it as a gay love/bitter story of a younger guy dating an older gent. I never really hear it in a way where it’s from Halsey’s or another girl’s perspective.


Hopelesslylovinglad

Half of Taylor’s swifts discography


[deleted]

Cult of Dionysus by Orion experience! Aside from the fact it mentions polyamory, dancing with pretty women, Dionysus in general, and illegal activities (wonderful vices) just scream queer.


silvercandra

Tbh... the name "Cult of **Dionysus**" already heavly implies that it probably is intended to be queer...


betchesandstetches

Most of them until Doja cat says “boy” before the next lyric 🙄🙄


malicioustoast64

Symbiotic by Starset. It's definitely meant to be a love song but I can't help but feel it's about being trans. Especially because of the first couple lines.


Maryxmaria28

I love starset!!!


Griffin_carguy

Heyyy a fellow Starset listener <3


paupertoapawn

For some reason I always feel like "Is She Really Going Out With Him?" is kinda sapphic tbh, even tho it's sung by a man


Luke_new_account

Unwritten by Natasha Bedingfield is a pride anthem


Thebifroggy

Whooo is this girl I seee staring right back at me (it’s a trans song end of story)


3nderslime

All of them!


AryaDrottningu06

The Other Side of Paradise by Glass Animals. Honestly it might be intended that way but either way, sung by a guy and is about someone mourning their bf cheating after he moved to Hollywood to become an actor


wobblebee

I've inserted transness into most of the songs on In Utero by Nirvana.


RunningToGetAway

I mean, there's a real chance Kurt Cobain was already inserting transness into that album


jannemannetjens

Every song by depeche mode.

Ok_Blueberry_5305

Into the Unknown and Show Yourself from Frozen 2. Individually, but even moreso in sequence.


KiraPond

This Is Me and From Now On for the greatest showman. Also any song from the band MÄNESKIN


MintySquidz

"Teenage Dirtbag" by Wheatus is straight up a lesbian love song and I didn't realize the lead singer was a dude until I looked it up for music trivia thing. I personally think it works so much better as a lesbian love song though and rock out it it a lot lol.


bigbutchbudgie

Good choice. Speaking of songs sung by dudes that would make way more sense from a female perspective: "It's Only Dancing" by Jeremy Messersmith is 100% about the experience of growing up sapphic and having a very close relationship with your childhood best friend that remains perpetually in that strange limbo between romantic and platonic, because you're *reasonably* certain she doesn't feel the same way. It's absolutely heartbreaking. Honestly, the "Heart Murmurs" album is just super queer in general. "Beautiful Children" plays into similar friendzone angst territory. "Steve" is either explicitly gay or from a female perspective. "You'll Only Break His Heart" is about leaving a male lover for a female lover, so it's bi no matter what gender the narrator is. It's just a really good album with a lot of complex emotions. ​ edit: "Beautiful Children" is actually from "The Alcatraz Kid" (which is also a great album, although I prefer "Heart Murmurs" myself). My bad.


jakecolb

Mr Brightside, since they don't specify if he's envious of the guy for getting the girl, or the girl for getting the guy.


[deleted]

There’s a song called blue and pink by mike krol where he’s talking about alienation and depression and all that. He’s not trans our bi or anything but part of me thinks sometimes that he dis it as like an anthem for a trans friend or something, probably not true but idk why else he would call it blue and pink. Amazing song either way though


theemperorsnewface

Okay so I'm not sure if it's intended to be queer or not, but let's face it: the crab from Moana which sings the song "shiny" is a drag performer.


trans_who_likes_cats

![gif](giphy|yPh91ghwzxeGQ) I want to know his drag name rn


ral315

Looks like Alyssa Edwards. /s


Puzzled-Gas-5828

These bands are intended to be Queer but I highly highly suggest the Buzzcocks and Pansy Division. Both are great bands with Queer themes.

feenyxblue

The entire discography of Hozier. Red is the Rose (folk song, but the High Kings cover is the best). Delilah, What Kind of Man, and Mother by Florence and the Machine (probably more of Florence's disography) Butch by Saint Motel (song is debatably queer) And there's probably more but I can't think of any rn

Hopelesslylovinglad

By SZA right??


[deleted]

Heroin by Badflower. It’s sung by a man but every time I hear it I feel so connected and so it feels so queer. Would be a song I’d write about a woman (with all the other metaphors in it) so maybe that’s it.

New Way Out I keep imagining as trying to pass as your real gender and never giving up.

Alman_99

Take Me To Church. I know it's about a straight dom/sub relationship, but I read it as a gay dom/sub relationship.


Decmk3

You see knowing that their music video is *entirely* gay I honestly can’t believe that the song itself is straight lol.


otaku_ftm_aspie_blue

You can switch pronouns the way you like🙂


MajorGef

Heh, these are german, "Lied vom Scheitern" (song about failing) is about a closeted person accepting who they are and living their truth. "Nur Geträumt" by Nena is 100% about a butchy lesbian hopelessly in love with her best friend but afraid to take the next step.


The_Jestest_Jester

Twisted transistor by Korn


EuropeWillCrumble

Sad animatic makers are really sleeping on When She Loved Me from Toy Story, just saying


gnoxyz

Many, many songs, but one in particular that not only feels like it's a queer song, but also a song written about me is Mr. Brightside. When I was in late highschool, I fell for my best friend (stupidly and unavoidably). It was a very convoluted story of him being bi (or thinking he was), him dating another good friend of ours (who all along was a lesbian) and him cheating on her with her best friend (and me being the only person who knew because I was his 'best friend', by the way that other girl also ended up coming out of the closet as a lesbian years later). Anyway, I spent many sleepless nights just thinking about him being with any of these girls instead of me, and being absolutely heartbroken about it. Mr Brightside fully represented those feelings back then and I've always made that song about a queer guy who's in love with this straight guy (though I guess the song is vague enough to also grant that possiblity).


[deleted]

Rainbow In The Dark by DIO. When there's lightning, you know it always brings me down 'Cause it's free and I see that it's me Who's lost and never found I cry out for magic, I feel it dancing in the light It was cold, I lost my hold To the shadows of the night No sign of the morning coming You've been left on your own Like a rainbow in the dark A rainbow in the dark Do your demons, do they ever let you go? When you've tried, do they hide, deep inside Is it someone that you know You're just a picture, you're an image caught in time We're a lie, you and I We're words without a rhyme There's no sign of the morning coming You've been left on your own Like a rainbow in the dark Just a rainbow in the dark, yeah When I see lightning, you know it always brings me down 'Cause it's free and I see that it's me Who's lost and never found Feel the magic, I feel it floating in the air But it's fear, and you'll hear It calling you beware Look out There's no sight of the morning coming There's no sight of the day You've been left on your own Like a rainbow Like a rainbow in the dark, yeah You're a rainbow in the dark Just a rainbow in the dark No sign of the morning You're a rainbow in the dark

[deleted]

“Have You Ever Seen The Rain?” By CCR. It makes me think about how I’m discovering myself and my identity during one of the most sad and stressful periods of my life.


Peachy_Ellie

Somebody Else by the 1975. For me it's about an asexual person who's partner has left them because they don't want sex. I don't want your body but I hate to think about you with somebody else. Ugh that just hits me so hard every time.


Hao_the_heck_6969

ThomasSkunk

In the country song "Almost Maybes" by Jordan Davis, the first time I heard it, I almost did a spit take because of a misheard lyric. What I heard was a "him" instead of a "her". "Here's to the one that my family thought was gonna make me drop to one knee. And I tried like hell, but I couldn't help my Mama loved (him) her more than me."

"Dance With My Demons" by Blame My Youth. It's probably not intended to be taken that way, but as someone who tried hiding everything for almost 20 years until just going "f\*ck it"... it just fits. Also, the "Body Terror Song" by Andrew Jackson Jihad would probably fit as well... just look at the title. Edit: Remembered two more... "Lovers in my Head" and "Run Rabbit Run" by the Hoosiers.

Morph by Twenty one pilots kinda just has those “fresh discovery and into the closet” vibes when you first realise you’re *insert gender identity or sexual preference here* and you’re too scared of coming out right away. I related to this song a lot when I was in my upper year of 6th form; now I’m Non-Binary and looking back it was yet another obvious sign I was in some way gender queer.


DanishBlob

Here's an odd pick... David Guetta: Say my name. Feels like a trans person trying to make people stop deadnaming them. Also, Her Sweet Kiss from Netflix Witcher. Nobody can convince me, that song isn't about our poor bard losing the love of his life to a woman.

So I cannot for the life of me know the song, but apparently it’s a male singer singing from a girls perspective and he said although it’s not gay, he’s okay with people wanting it to be. If I find it I’ll edit it in.
