I can't really comment on half this list. However i do own most of the rest and i'm not sure how Hard Core by L'il Kim can be considered gay when musically it's the un-campest rap ever and lyrically it involves Kim being eaten out by various gents in virtually every song. Plus i wish people would listen to Abba for the songcraft rather than just the album that happens to contain Dancing Queen. Guitly should have been a lot higher and where the hell is A1?!

Love the angle of that Times article. "Beatles liked by gays shocker!"

I own 2 records on that list - Suede and Want One.
I'm off to reassess my personal motivations.
I think the Stones are gayer than the Beatles.

OK, maybe i don't own half. between us me & tash have 15, plus a copy of girls aloud. Still think some of these choices are highly questionable.
