Brilliant! Most grateful to all the artists to post this to the public domain! So inspirational! Well done!
Happy Pride 2024!
2023: sometimes sweet but often bitter. We face life with a little guts and lots of glitter, together. Stay strong, everyone. You are loved exactly the way you are ❤
Crying HAPPY TEARS watching such joy and love exploding into this dark world. We bring the LIGHT!!
Oh. My. God. Has this gone viral yet? Because it f*cking BETTER! Never been so proud to be part of such an embracing and inclusive community.

This gives me hope, this gives me love, this gives me pride
This make me remember who I am and smile....and then remember, I can still dance. Thank you.
Epic and magically brilliant video, where the dynamism of the dance is accompanied by the joy of all immersed in the colors of the rainbow, great Desmond💗💗💗🌈💯✌👏
Thank you :)
@@DesmondisAmazing 💗🙏💗🌈👋
Song and Video of the Summer!!!! 🤩😍🤩😍🤩
Very emotional. Best version of the song and should have more views!
AB-FAB!! Grew up when there was still a love that dare not speak its name. This brought tears to my eyes.
Beautiful. It applies to everyone. We are all what we are, but especially to our community. It was wonderful to see Desmond in there too!
Thank you! :)
It's okay to just let it be about queerness. Considering it's a queer anthem.
Show 👋👋👋❤️
Absolutely freakin' amazing. What a GREAT rendition of this song! So wonderful to see such inclusive representation and J. Harrison Ghee is a f*cking STAR!!! Happy PRIDE y'all!
When I tell you I am OBSEEEEEESSSEEEEEDDDDDDDDDD
Ready for this to BLOW UP next month for Pride, this deserves millions of views it's so so so good
I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE this so much! You should add in the description where this song originated from-educate the babies!

Music Jerry Herman
Lyrics Jerry Herman

Tearing up every time I watch this. The last part of the group carrying the young person on their shoulders is so powerful. Thank you!
This is soooo underrated and its actually a masterpiece
That bridge @2:53 so much hype. Can’t play it loud enough.

I’ll comment once I stop crying😭😌😭😭😭💗🌹
Love Love LOVE THIS!!! ♥🏳🌈
🥰
So how do I purchase this?
Ich habe es auf den Unterarm taetowirt ich bin was ich bin 🌹💋💣💋🌹
So good, but how about a little love for us gay elders?
So true, after all the music comes from a play featuring elderly gays too! And hey, we can still dance our asses off!LOL!
@@doc2log us elders can teach the young uns a thing or two
Oh come on!
I´m 60 and used to be a professional dancer. Good looking and lucky enough to grow up in the Netherlands. We´ve been there, done that. We were lucky enough to have Gloria sing our praise. ;-)
So what if we´re not the center of attention anymore? Who cares when a 60-years old enters a gay bar he seems to be invisible?
Nowadays it´s my goal to defend the rights of young people to be who they are. Just as I was when I was younger. Let THEM shine like I did 40 years ago. ;-)
As for the video; It´s fabulous!
Soooooo gooood!! 🏳🌈🏳⚧
YOU SHOULD LIVE YOUR TRUTH.
WHY ?
, BECAUSE THE TRUTH,
THERE IS A GOD RULE THAT SAYS,
"TO EACH THEIR OWN."
IT'S YOUR LIFE AND IF YOU AREN'T HURTING ANY ONE,
HONEY,
DO WHAT EVER THE F YOU WANT !
😎
เริด ❤💛💟💚🧡💙💜
🌈🔥❤️🌈🔥❤️🌈🔥❤️🌈
Poor Desmond!
My big old gay well built heart has just swollen bigger, on hearing this, wow what a voice, my goodness say loud say It proud men
Beautiful. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
I love this so much. I love being gay and love being a part of the queer community!!
Eh
