My Weekend Crush

Sometimes, when I’m a little down about the world, I randomly remember that there is a real song called “Lesbian Seagull” and I feel a little better about the world instead. And then Engelbert Humperdinck – who is also a real person whose name makes me feel a little better about the world in a weird way, too – sang it and everything. Happy weekend, all.

p.s. Actually, the whole history of “Lesbian Seagull” is kind of amazing. It was written in 1979 by an out gay singer named Tom Wilson Weinberg as a response to a government study about, well, lesbian seagulls. It was on his album called “Gay Name Game,” which includes tons of other gay-themed music – much like the rest of his music. Years later it appeared in the 1996 film “Beavis and Butt-head Do America” and Humperdinck sang it for the soundtrack. And now you know.

p.p.s. You can hear Tom’s original version here.



p.p.s. OMG, he also has a song he wrote called “Turkey Baster Baby.” Come on, that’s gotta make you feel a little better about everything.
