The 30th anniversary of "I Will Survive"

| | Comments (0) |


Well, what gay man hasn't spit out the lyrics of "I Will Survive" while getting over a break-up? If you have not and you are over the age of 35, then you must turn in yoiur gay card pronto! Let's face it, gay people are survivors and that's what makes us great and what makes us strong. We've gotten through so much and had to fight really hard to define ourselves and to live our truth.

I just love being gay.

I'm sorry folks, but I just watched the above video of Gloria Gaynor's "I Will Survive" and all those thoughts just sorta welled up in me and I just went with it! You see, after "American Idol" ended last night, I left the TV on and "Don't Forget the Lyrics" was on (BTW, wouldn't Wayne Brady make a far better host for "Idol" than annoying Ryan Seacrest?). Wayne noted that it was the 30th anniversary of Gaynor's landmark hit "I Will Survive" and she took the stage and belted it out with all the energy and enthusiasm that she had way back when. She does not appear to be tired of sinigng this break-up anthem, thank God!
