Roger in Baltimore Historical gay/lesbian/bisexual songs? (148* d) RE: Historical gay/lesbian/bisexual songs? 04 Jun 99


I learned "Gotta Find a Woman With a Chainsaw (to spend the winter with me)" from the singing of a lesbian trio whose name escapes me after these dozen or so years. It's not really a lesbian song as I believe the writer was a male. But I didn't know that at the time. I didn't have to change the gender of the song, but I did eliminate the reference to Mendocino Thunder F*** (potent marijuana). It is extremely popular with audiences in the fall of the year here in Maryland.

With some hesitancy I should note an old favorite by Charlie King entitled "Thank you, Anita" (a reference to Anita Bryant, the orange juice queen who slurred homosexuals). It is with hesitancy because I casually mentioned this song a year ago and someone asked for the lyrics. Maybe if I change that burned out light bulb in the cellar I can find that LP. After three moves, they are no longer in alphabetical order and there must be hundreds of them (folk and 60's and 70' R&R).

Maybe I'll go look.
