You know what the origin of that is right? Back in the olden days, queer-folk had to be careful who they came out to. So they came up with a system of spelling things out with there arms to communicate to other queers their romantic intentions..... ... okay thats not true, but I mean why ELSE would this be a thing?
Born this Way 🤔? Never heard it. Do you mean Express Yourself by Madonna: the Remix 😂😂? No shade, kids. I think I'm older than Lady Gaga, so it's not her fault that whenever BTW comes on, Express Yourself is all I can hear 💕
@@bugbear2357Lady Gaga is also not queer (corrected in the replies: Lady Gaga is bisexual), but fwiw a lot of straight cis female pop artists are “queer culture”, as the kids say (Britney Spears, Madonna, Lady Gaga, etc.), either because a particular song resonated with queer people, the embracing of femininity/camp/etc., the looooong history of queer culture and female singers/actresses (there’s a whole Wikipedia article about Judy Garland’s status as a gay icon,especially in the 60s), it’s pretty interesting stuff. I think it’s more a discussion of queer anthems, whether or not the artists who made them are queer/out queer, though given how Chappell Roan is a lesbian and nearly all of the members of the Vilalge people were gay, I can understand the clashes viewpoints on the replies in the comments.
There is bound to be a couple older people who stumble over this and are convinced roan is from way back when and they didn’t hear it or just don’t remember it.
No one in the village ppl is gay! Their manager was, but the song is technically up to interpretation. I like to think of it as an inclusive ode to the great sex and affordable housing provided by the ymca but you are absolutely right!
@@mikeymullins5305 Incorrect. While the sexuality of most of the members is unknown (though Victor Willis, the founder and lead singer, is confirmed heterosexual), there were at least a few members of the band that were openly gay, namely Felipe Rose (who played the Native American character) and Randy Jones (who played the cowboy character).
Im listening to it and it feels like it won't work,.. and then it works 😭 I feel like if someone were to sing it over irl over the karaoke ymca it could work nicer
This works a lot better than I expected and I’ve always thought of these songs as having a Rin-Len relationship (if that makes sense), so it’s perfect!
As someone who grew up always loving YMCA but had problems doing the letters, I'm so glad HOTTOGO came along because it's so much easier to do than the M in YMCA. I always felt let out because i struggled doing the M as a kid. But now I can do HOTTOGO 24/7 365 days out of the year so YIPPEE
@@markhattorimusic Unfortunately, not this exact mashup. I heard “YMCA” segue right into “HOT TO GO!” But I’m glad I found a video mashing these tunes up.
A few critiques: - The Hot To Go bits are a bit quiet/compressed sometimes - cutting the horns from some parts would've fit better with the song Both of those are probably issues/opinion on my end, though. Overall, the mashup is pretty solid, though. Good job
wlw - mlm solidarity: the theme song
REALL
YES 🤣🤣
Multi-Level Marketing?
@@ArchIVEDCinemaclose enough!
👏👏👏👏
15 yr old lesbians & 60 yr old gay men r arm 2 arm skipping & twirling 2gether in a field having a gay old time.
What my dreams look like
Lol, same 😂 @Hyssopo
Real
as a 15yo lesbian this is so true
🥲💕
The age-old queer tradition of spelling words with your arms
This made me laugh way harder than it should have

I was just about to comment something similar
exactly. that’s why “but i’m a cheerleader” exists
I laughed way too hard at this
It’s giving the gay grandpas and their lesbian granddaughter celebrating Pride
this is such a sweet imagery i love it
🥺🥺🥺
How.. how can the gay grandpa have any grandchildren
@@mumtrz adoption?
@@mumtrz ivf, egg donors, probably something else that i’m forgetting… there are options dude
stop stop i don’t have enough arms to do both dances at once 😭😭😭
Gay Eldritch horror's could do it though
Doc Ock bustin a move
I don't wanna assume, but do you have legs?
@@alzzarla4610 wait this is so true
i dont have enough for one LMAO
Between these two songs and Born This Way, F# major really seems to be the go-to musical key for gay music
Feels like the greatest joke, though it’s completely true
Ok if I’m right if we combine those we have lesbian, gay, and bi. We just need a trans song in there to achieve the ultimate queer song
Born this Way 🤔? Never heard it. Do you mean Express Yourself by Madonna: the Remix 😂😂? No shade, kids. I think I'm older than Lady Gaga, so it's not her fault that whenever BTW comes on, Express Yourself is all I can hear 💕
@@Setsunako6587 I wasn't aware Madonna was queer? because this is a discussion of lgbtq artists

this can end the war between gen z and gen x queer people
GEN X 😡 WE RISE UP 👼⬆ AGAINST GEN Z 💥 THEY TRIED TO CANCEL US 🚫 WELL 🤗 THEY DON'T KNOW 💭 WHO THEY'RE MESSING WITH 🐺
I’m pretty sure the village people were baby boomers
@@wiggletonthewise2141 the village people themselves, yeah probably. but they were making music for the youth, which at the time was gen x
@@thefreakasaurus ya that’s fair
there's no war between gen z and gen x queer people
the official LGBT community anthem
LGB there is no T
@ touch grass
don't forget to put the Village People vocals over the Chappell Roan backing track for the second chorus. All good mashups go both ways.
Omg yes. The last 1/3 is missing the opportunity to swap and instead is just regular YMCA. Still strong overall tho
Yeah I'm sort of disappointed both spellings aren't in here
I DONT KNOW WHICH HAND MOTIONS TO DO!!!!!!
YOT MO CO A
All of them
the fact that i just saw the village people live at a festival and they played Chappell just before their set??
Oh my god that means this is canon....
Macarenas asexually in the corner
... well this answers my question, I was wondering which dance to do to this 😂😂
*Joins in bisexually*
Joins in aroasexually 🎉🎉
*joins in both aro/ace & bisexuality*😫
*Joins in aroace lesbianly*
lesbians and gays UNITE
This reminds me of the queer unity in a certain 1981-1990s pandemic
If this isn’t played at my wedding im not getting married
lmaoo it will
~*starts flailing arms wildly trying to do both at once*~
this is the gay anthem that will unite the generations
The CAMP of it all 🏳️🌈 THIS is what The Met Gala needed in 2019 😭
now we need the reverse order STAT ❤❤
There is bound to be a couple older people who stumble over this and are convinced roan is from way back when and they didn’t hear it or just don’t remember it.
Songs about gay sex have come a long way and I’m weirdly emotional about how the new one can be more explicit 😂

GAY ANTHEM⁉️
i was a month late 😭
GAYTHEM
Truly the wlw and mlm crossover we needed
Im listening to it and it feels like it won't work,.. and then it works 😭 I feel like if someone were to sing it over irl over the karaoke ymca it could work nicer
Incredible concept, but I think there is an ideal version of this yet to be reached.
We need the Y M C A in the background of the H O T T O G O, i think, perhaps alternating between them?? Its a tricky one
agreed
I just Know Chappell would love this
now imagine this playing at a club
this is so gay, its amazing
this is giving neil cicierega
This works a lot better than I expected and I’ve always thought of these songs as having a Rin-Len relationship (if that makes sense), so it’s perfect!
Songs that teach gay people how to spell ❤
*crazy inflatable waving arm gestures*
This is the queer art we should protect
Gay gay homosexual gay 💖 ps: This is so GOOD ✨️
thank you!!
Pierce, who let you get on the internet again? We've talked about this.
Bisexuals: I see this as an absolute win
holy shit it fits so well
Ive been thinking about these 2 spell it out with your arms dance crazes, and here they are together already.
Damn this would be amazing for Pride Month
Solidarity forever
Why does this go together so well?!?!?! 😮
this is why we spell words with our bodies
Gracias, algoritmo. Voy a soñar con esto.
Fellow gays, this shall be our WAR SONG!!!
I'm mildly impressed at how well the chorus worked together ❤️
Perfect mix. Musically executed very well. But also thematic and even the dance.
MY FELLOW GAYS!!!! ASSEMBLE!!!! 🗣🗣🗣🗣
Tbh I wondered when someone was gonna do this 😂
I KNEW Hot to Go reminded me of something!
so ready for this new gay anthem to take the world by storm
oh delicious
But... But WHICH DANCE DO I DO?!?!?!
this makes me so happy
Well Done!!! This is excellent!
thank you!
This is too good lol, what have you unlocked

The queer community gets one spelling tutorial song every few decades

Pride final boss
This is what ADHD feels like
TWICE the gay anthem now.
close enough welcome back neil cicierega
I guess this is what they call a gay-lesbian alliance
i really really need someone to mashup HOT TO GO and Mickey by Toni Basil
The Ultimate pride anthem
The highest level of gay anyone can reach
The gays are having a dance party
I can feel the rainbow flag filling my heart 😂
WHAT
theyre the same song your honour
I’ve ascended
as a lesbian i'm gonna go listen to this with my gay friend
I feel incredibly out of place here as a straight cis man
same lol
same lol-
The new queer generations crossover with the gay veteran grandpas 🎉
this is MY national anthem
For how weird this sounds, it goes way too hard
fuck me this is so good
i unironically like this more than the original HOT TO GO lmao
this is gay and lesbian solidarity
Bi anthem lmao
Someone needs to add the macerana to this
Edit: i added the macerana to it, it is a horrible idea
How can i get this on Spotify, i need
This is my queer joy
This is the overload of gay
I need a theatric masc best friend to do a chorgraphed dance with dressed as a hot cop leather daddy
