kiki_engWe're headed into Thanksgiving weekend in these parts, which is a traditional family weekend, which can be less than fun for some people, so - happy-making musical things.
Angelique Kidjo "I Think Ur a Contra" - featuring Ezra Keonig this is such a lovely duet, kind of yearning and calm? Angelique Kidjo is probably my favourite new-to-me singer of this past year.
LONDON, ENGLAND Green Day Crowd Singing Bohemian Rhapsody - Hyde Park July 1st, 2017 I guess they were playing piped in music before the main act and what looks like the entire park decided to have a sing-a-long? People are pretty great sometimes.
SHIRLEY & COMPANY - SHAME, SHAME, SHAME Disco! The song's great but I think my favorite thing about this video is that neither of them are fantastic dancers, it's like, just go for it, you don't even need to go hard.
"Sixteen Going On Seventeen" Andrew Keenan-Bolger, Jay Armstrong Johnson - Broadway Backwards 2017 gay and fun, I love all of their adaptations, really
Kevin Massey - "Strangers Like Me" (The Broadway Prince Party) kind of adorable and there are some bits in German - he has a lovely voice
Adrienne Warren – "Almost There" (The Broadway Princess Party) her voice, calling out Disney and standing up to your relatives a bit
Ingrid Michaelson - Girls Chase Boys (An Homage to Robert Palmer's "Simply Irresistible") pretty queer - the visuals are great - and includes the line "gonna be alright" which is what you need, really
Tout ce qui brille - Ma drôle de vie bouncy and happy, my favourite version of this song, I think
L'été Indien | Mika et Coeur de Pirate "Grace Kelly" et "Boum Boum Boum" ...another happy duet, this time with CanCon, and both Mika and Coeur de Pirate are queer
Sara Bareilles - F*ck You/Gonna Get Over You (VEVO Presents) great and obviously an appropriate holiday song
Robin des Bois - Un monde à changer so positive and dance-y
