I'm SHOCKED, SHOCKED I tell you to hear that Frankie Goes to Hollywood might be gay-related. Next they'll be saying The Scissor Sisters aren't sisters in a biological sense!

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.
waits patiently for Hec to reference "Cocksucker Blues"
Heh. I doubt they've even heard it. Most people haven't heard it. Mick, of course, had many dalliances with boys as well as the abundant hoards of women. Keith had a few, as I recall. Marianne Faithfull noted that the late sixties all took place in bed. People just flopped around in enormous beds doing drugs and having the sex.
While Mick's cocksucking is fun, I've always admired Nick Cave's lyric in his version of "Staggerlee": "I'd crawl across nine miles of pussy / for one fat boy's ass."

Hetfield wouldn't look out of place in a leather bar, that's for fucking sure.
I really want Metallica to cover Tom Waits' "Goin' Out West" so I can hear their mighty rhythm section lock into that protometal riff, and also because I want to hear Hetfield sing, "I know karate, voodoo too / I'm gonna make myself available to you / I don't need no make up, I got real scars / I got hair on my chest, I look good without a shirt!"
Also, let's not forget Judas Priest in the gay leather metal category.
Let's not forget Judas Priest!
Judas Priest is our Alamo.
Wait. The Village People are gay?

They made a movie about going to therapy...I say straight!
Judas Priest - maybe just a little bit gay
That would be in the same sense that one is a little bit pregnant, I assume?
Am now listening to "Cocksucker Blues" for the first time. I downloaded it from WFMU a while back when their blog had a thing about songs with naughty lyrics, but I never got around to listening to it....
Huh.
