I can't of no better way to wind this site down than with a new addition to the Gay Pride Classics series.  It's been a long while since I originally posted the 5-set podcast, which I performed some minor updating to last year but it still needed more.  Bigger, better, faster ...HARDER!



Things start with Linda Eder's version of "I Am What I Am" from La Cage Aux Folles.  This song was/is a rallying cry for the gay community originally made famous by Gloria Gaynor in 1983.  Though I didn't use Gloria's version, a 2013 re-work of her other gay anthem "I Will Survive" does appear here and fits nicely with the late 90s early millennium vibe of this set.



While the majority of these songs have appeared at one time or another in past sets, the one song I could never get worked in is the closing number.  The original Bruce Roberts, Elton John, and Kristine W version of "When the Money's Gone" is one of my ALL-TIME favorites.  The only version of this song that exists is in a continuous mix; one for the Junior Vasquez "White Party Album" and the other from some obnoxious "Gay Anthems" mix album.
