Heard about this on the radio this morning and was just so amused by the ridiculousness of it, I had to share.
There is a group called "Love God's Way" that has come up with a list of 'Gay' music:
Quote:
One of the most dangerous ways Homosexuality invades family life is through popular music. Parents, please keep careful watch over your children’s listening habits. Especially in this age of Internet mp3 piracy.
There are multiple levels of Gay Music. Some bands are what we like to call Gateway Bands. They lure children in with Pop Grooves and Salacious Melodies leaving them wanting more. They’ll move on to more dangerous bands and the next thing you know you’ve got a homosexual for a child.
We’ve taken the time to highlight the bands that are particularly Gay. Please take the time and dissect your child’s CD / iTunes catalog. If you find 3 or more of these bands in their collection it is time to take action.
We Strongly recommend that you burn the CDs. Make sure your child is watching. Make sure they can feel the heat. It is crucial that the image remains emblazoned in their young minds. They need to know that if they continue to listen to these bands they may Burn eternally as well.

You can see the whole list
here, but some that caught my eye include (the parenthetical notes are theirs):
- Lil'Wayne
- George Strait
- Toby Keith (cowboy)
- Ravi Shankar
- The Doors
- Phish
- Metallica
- The Rolling Stones
- Kansas
- Eminmen
- Nirvana
- Ted Nugent (loincloth)
- Frank Sinatra
- Tom Waits
- The Cramps
I think my favorite entry on the list is a band that I am not familiar with, but I loved their parenthetical note on them:
There is also a
safe list, not surprisingly dominated by Christian acts such as Jars of Clay and Michael W. Smith, but four "safe" bands that just amused me were:
- Cyndi Lauper
- Dresden Dolls
- Blondie
- Cheap Trick
