Some cities are now pretty much scraping the glitter off the concrete after their respective Prides. But some bussies are still bumping, either literally on the dancefloor or somewhere in our heads. Brian Salemi gives us a recap of what you’re likely stuck with for the next few weeks.

1. Work Bitch” by the reigning Princess of Pop (and forever gay royalty) Britney Spears. “Work Bitch” is the quintessential workout song to whip our bodies into sickeningly good shape for Pride. Personally, I really relate to the lyrics: Yes Brit, I do want to sip martinis and I do want to look hot in a bikini. Plus, in the music video she is dancing on a platform surrounded by sharks, which sounds exactly like me at the clubs every Pride. Eat your hearts out, bitches.

2. “A Little Respect” by UK band Erasure, released in 1988. Lead singer Andy Bell was one of the first openly gay musicians of the time and helped brand this song forever into gay culture. I’ll admit I only recently was exposed to the song through HBO’s “Looking” when Patrick and my bae Richie were dancing to it in a San Francisco club. Since that moment, I have been absolutely obsessed with the catchy hit and freak out like Patrick every time the song comes on.

3. “Believe” by the untouchable gay icon Cher. The Goddess of Pop has been crushing it musically for nearly five decades, and you can’t tell me or any other queen otherwise. The dance beat, power vocals, and even the questionable (but still fun) autotune make this the perfect song to belt out at the club and pay homage to the queen.

4. “Partition” by Queen B, Beyoncé. “Partition” is an incredibly sexy song that’ll have you feeling your oats the moment the chorus drops. It’s the kind of song to grab that man you’ve been eyeing and show him what you’re made of. Lots of grinding will ensue when the club plays this song, so make sure you’ve got your twerk game up, fellas.  

5. “212” by Azealia Banks. “212” is the song that put this Brooklyn queen of controversy on the map. The song bolsters a sick beat coupled with fearless lyrics that make it a blast to rap with your friends. Plus, who doesn’t want to vogue circles around their haters singing “What you gon’ do when I appear? W-when I premiere? Bitch, the end of your lives are near. This shit been mine-mine” *death drop*.
