PRIDE MONTH: Get your groove on with our Fuzzable Pride Playlist!

To celebrate Pride Month, we at Fuzzable have chosen a selection of songs for our essential Pride Playlist!

We chose these tracks because we feel a lot of them are positive, empowering anthems for the LGBTQ+ community. A lot of these songs also sung by allies of the community, such as Lady Gaga, Ariana Grande, Cher, and Kylie Minogue!

Lady Gaga – “Born This Way” (2011)

Kicking off the playlist is a classic Gaga track which is lyrically about loving yourself no matter your race, sexuality, or gender.

Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande – “Rain On Me” (2020)

Next up is Gaga’s latest collaboration with Ariana Grande – it’s such an uplifting feelgood pop song with elements of house and disco music.

Madonna – “Express Yourself” (1989)

The queen of pop herself sung this female empowerment anthem back in 1989.

Madonna – “Vogue” (1990)

Another iconic Madonna song next – who hasn’t tried to attempt the dance moves?

Macklemore & Ryan Lewis – “Same Love” (2013)

We love this song as it teaches the idea of equality among LGBTQ+ people.

The Weather Girls – “It’s Raining Men” (1982)

This is a catchy, uptempo song and we can’t help but dance whenever it comes on.

Spice Girls – “Wannabe” (1996)

A karaoke anthem! “If you wannabe my lover, you gotta get with my friends…”

Spice Girls – “Spice Up Your Life” (1997)

We had to include another Spice Girls track on the playlist! This is such an awesome empowerment track.

Cher – “Believe” (1998)

Not only is Cher an icon amongst the LGBTQ+ community, but she has also helped to uplift them through this powerful dance track.

Taylor Swift – “You Need To Calm Down” (2019)

“Why are you mad, when you be GLAAD?” In this catchy pop song, Taylor addresses those who post hateful comments online and shows her support for the LGBTQ+ community.

Kylie Minogue – “Can’t Get You Out of My Head” (2001)

An LBGTQ+ ally, and we had to put her most recognisable hit on the playlist!

Kylie Minogue – “All the Lovers” (2010)

A decade ago, Kylie released an empowering love song, depicting the existence of emotion in different forms.

Christina Aguilera – “Beautiful” (2002)

In this emotional ballad, Christina reminds her listeners not to let the haters get them down.

Dead Or Alive – “You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)” (1984)

A classic 80s dance hit! Dead Or Alive’s frontman, Pete Burns, was also a part of the LGBTQ+ community.

Donna Summer – “On the Radio” (1979)

It doesn’t get more disco than this…

Little Mix featuring Jason Derulo – “Secret Love Song” (2015)

In this track, the girl group sings about a love that is being kept behind closed doors – something that many LGBTQ+ people can relate to.

ABBA – “Mamma Mia” (1975)

A timeless classic, all the way from 1975!

ABBA – “Dancing Queen” (1976)

We had to include another ABBA hit – this is one of the group’s most iconic songs and has become an anthem amongst the gay community.

Shania Twain – “That Don’t Impress Me Much” (1998)

You better giddy up for this country pop classic!

Shania Twain – “Man I Feel Like a Woman” (1999)

One of Shania’s most well-known singles, this is a real girl power anthem!

Demi Lovato – “Cool For the Summer” (2015)

Demi explores bi-curiosity in this uptempo pop rock number.

Katy Perry – “Firework” (2010)

This track has helped to inspire those who have ever felt hopeless and unworthy. It’s such a feelgood song and we love it!

Katy Perry – “Roar” (2013)

Just like “Firework”, “Roar” is also a self-empowerment song.

Wham – “Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go” (1984)

One of our favourite throwback tracks!

George Michael – “Freedom 90” (1990)

This early 90s song is a catchy dance number with elements of funk and gospel, as George documents his past successes with Wham, as well as how much he has matured as a man.

Britney Spears – “Toxic” (2004)

This playlist would not be complete without one of Britney’s most iconic tracks!

Britney Spears – “Work B***h” (2013)

In this uplifting EDM smasher, Britney commands her listeners to literally get to work if they want to achieve their goals. The song has become an anthem amongst LGBTQ+ people!

The Village People – “YMCA” (1978)

One of the earliest gay anthems!

Janet Jackson – “Together Again” (1997)

Janet dedicated this uplifting dance track to AIDS victims around the world, as well as a close friend she had lost to the disease.

Kesha – “Tik Tok” (2009)

Before we had the popular social media app TikTok, we had this song!

Kesha – “We R Who We R” (2010)

Kesha wrote this track after hearing of the news that bullying and harassment had led to suicides amongst many youths in the LGBTQ+ community. This electro-fused smasher will be sure to uplift the community’s spirits!

Christina Aguilera, Pink, Lil Kim and Mya – Lady Marmalade (2001)

What a throwback!

Destiny’s Child – “Bootylicious” (2001)

We love this feelgood R&B track! “I don‘t think you’re ready for this jelly…”

One of the most anthemic self-empowerment songs ever.

Dua Lipa – “Don’t Start Now” (2019)

A disco-inspired banger!

Whitney Houston – “I Wanna Dance With Somebody” (1987)

One of our favourite 80s songs. And an essential for any dancefloor!

We’re a big fan of Whitney’s version of the Chaka Khan song, which was released on the soundtrack to her film “The Bodyguard”.

RuPaul – “Supermodel (You Better Work)” (1992)

This house tune has become a staple amongst the LGBTQ+ community!

Rihanna – “SOS” (2006)

This 2000s banger samples the 80s hit “Tainted Love” by Soft Cell and gets us moving everytime we hear it!

Rihanna really does deliver the bops, doesn’t she?

This aspirational ballad encourages listeners to accept themselves for who they are.

We LOVE this track as it inspires us to be whoever we want to be!

Ariana Grande featuring Zedd – “Break Free” (2014)

It’s a breakup anthem, but it has become a favourite amongst Ariana’s LGBTQ+ fans!

Ariana Grande – “No Tears Left To Cry” (2018)

This is such a powerful uplifting pop song with inspiring lyrics, as Ariana moves on from the trauma and pain that she has experienced.

Beyonce featuring Jay-Z – “Crazy In Love” (2003)

This playlist would feel a little empty without Queen Bey herself!

Beyonce – “Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It)” (2008)

This is a powerful anthem for all the woman out there!

To conclude this playlist, we had to end with a song that has helped to unite the LGBTQ+ community as a whole!
