Culturally Expansive

Oh the benefits of cohabitating with a foreign born gay, you get to learn all about bad early 90's Euro dance music!!!! Typical of Europe a lot of them are DOWNBEAT as opposed to the American optimism of black diva wailings to a club thumping beat usually describing emancipation, freeing yourself, talk of the girl you used to be, etc etc. I mean it was the worry free 90's right??? Guess they didn't get that memo across the pond.

This is Gala, who was a dance diva giant but sadly only released one album at least according to my roomie. I'm too lazy to verify the statement so its true. Its a little medley of her biggest hits, the opening video is a classic queer anthem called Let A Boy Cry, a black and white tale of homo shame and guilt punctuated by urine colored tears.

choice lyric: you're always waiting for somebody and you don't like yourself/they made you change do you remember, when you were someone else
