Gay Song Six – Kissing Her Brother Paul
Gay Song Six – Kissing her brother Paul
Note: for this series of postings, the term 'Gay Song' refers to music written to/for/by or about Gay men or women. A second category also deals with music identified as Gay because it speaks to the heart of the Gay Experience.
So to make this easier, I will call them Gay in the 1st Degree (to/for/by/about), or Gay in the 2nd Degree (like Judy Garland singing Somewhere Over the Rainbow).

This youtube creator has made a really cool video with this Gay in the 1st Degree number. Gender non-conformity was 'in' in the 1920s, and most of that was led by Gay men and women. Artists and performers were big stars on the stage as drag personalities that would rival the best of RuPaul. In fact, George Gershwin's classic Somebody Loves Me was written expressly for a drag queen.
So, what do you think?
