Obviously I love when women cover men’s love songs and don’t change the pronouns, but I have an extra special affection for when this happens with trad/folk music. Like yes I would like to imagine two 17th century peasant women meeting on the road and flirting wildly. I don’t even care if it ends in tragedy, I just get boost from hearing a woman sing about her “true love” with she/her pronouns in an old-timey context.
Put together a little playlist of trad songs like this (with a couple of original songs by primarily trad artists) — here! Thanks to @bravenot & @majestic-salad for the songs you mentioned in the notes/tags! I’ll update it if I can find any more.
Not to brag but I got the playlist at over 100 songs (and counting!) in time for Pride Month and I’m very happy with it :D
