Dance classics like “Relax,” “Groove Is in the Heart” and “Finally” will have everyone on their feet and working up a sweat. So, with all that in mind, we set out to create a soundtrack for the perfect Pride party. Of course, we also love a good novelty tune-hello, “It’s Raining Men” and “Y.M.C.A.” Songs of empowerment, hope and self-acceptance all resonate with the queer community, for obvious reasons. Music has always been an important part of gay culture.
Across the U.S.-and beyond-millions of revelers are gathering for parades, festivals and parties, all of which have one thing in common: great, anthemic songs. LGBT Pride month is here, and that means it's time to celebrate.
