QUEER

(No propaganda was submitted for this song)

HETERO

ABNORMALITY DANCIN' GIRL

"TOXIC YURI IS GOOD YURI "

"It's got a theme of butterflies. Like. Obviously it's a trans allegory, it's got an amazing ccolor scheme too (purple and blue are wonderful colors tbh frfr)"

"uhhh well maybe i'm stretching here but tame mene the main character of the song has a giant crush on miya nanamiya (another girl) so yeah i just love this so much"

AKATSUKI ARRIVAL

"When Magnet wasn't carrying Miku X Luka, this song was. Miku and Luka being rivals, only to realize that they only loved what they did when their rival was there with them. This is the Rivals to Lovers song. // Rivals to lovers. Doomed yuri. This song rewired my brain chemistry I love them so much"

MAKEUP

"I’m sorry there is absolutely no heterosexual explanation for this song. It’s had my gay ass on chokehold for a whole year now. That’s it, just watch it, I promise you won’t regret it."

LOVES ME, LOVES ME NOT

"the song was made during pride month. i could be wrong on this but i think it was also maybe made for pride month too? either way, one of big al's lines is "And boy if I told you, "Could I maybe hold you?"" and one of rin's is "That you and me girl, We'd be in this position." so uhm yeah need i say more basically"

LILI

"Without going too much into the details, this song is the other side of the coin. Harumaki Gohan creates a song about sadness and yearning and the innocence that comes with a first crush but the crushing weight of a world against you. Escape by any means possible is a fantasy, and even then, it's leaving people behind. Overall a heart-rending song that still gives me the chills."

MIKAGE'S DIARY

DOKI DOKI ☆ YURI GAKUEN

"They're so cute and gay and I love them. This is such a sweet song about one of my favourite lesbian ships aaaaaaaaa"

"It’s about two girls falling in love in a school setting. It’s a wholesome little song explaining the girls’ feelings about liking eachother, and they get together at the end"

"YURI !!!!!!!"

"i found it during my original 3rd grade vocaloid phase so its got a special place in my heart. awawawa"

SWEETIEx2

THE IMMORAL MEMORY ～THE LOST MEMORY～

"Len can have two boyfriends. As a treat!"

IMITATION BLACK

EMPRESS

"WE KNOW VILLAIN. WE KNOW UNICORN. LIVED IT LOVED IT. BUT LET'S TALK ABOUT EMPRESS AKA TENIWOHA TRANSFEM ANTHEM… Speaker goes through a journey feeling very inadequate and inherently ugly, something that makeup can't conceal, and says "It looks like my infinitesimal soul was poured into the wrong template" she doesn't fit what's is beautiful, she feels like she was made wrong. There's an inner conflict between the Empress she "wants" to be and what she actually "is" but then she gains more confidence when she reflects on how nature is inherently beautiful because it exists, not because other people think it's beautiful. "Does a lotus flower bloom because it thinks it will be pretty?" Consider how even though she knows she is an "empress," she compares herself to a wrapper over candy--a thin shield, but it doesn't hide anything shameful but rather the sweet candy underneath. This marks a switch into embracing herself. Even if she wants to use the things that signify Empress status aka makeup, clothes, to cover her "ugly" soul she undertands that she is beautiful as she is and doesn't actually need these thigns to be an Empress. She has her "wrapper" on her terms do I make sense. It's commentary on how femininity is both a performance but also self expression. That's why the chorus cries out "Step away from your throne" she does not need a throne to be the Empress that she is!! She doesn't need the validation. "Even if it’s a lie, I’ve straightened my back, see?" SHe is more secure in herself by the end of the song and it no longer matters if being an Empress won't be seen as real enough to others, she has pride in herself and that won't change. I get really emotional about this. Insanely underrated. When you hear EMPRESS IN ME do you not feel the power of the EMPRESS IN ME?!?!?!"

UNICORN

"too overlooked in favor of villain!!!!!! though not as explicitly queer in its lyrics still obv about being an Other. fell of the ark - as a unicorn, not a "real" animal, or that it was a male and a female of each animal and you belong as neither. self-assured song. lovely song."

"villain's lesser known younger sibling. let your uniqueness show! dont hide it away!"

PITTER PATTER

"insanely cute and catchy song about having a crush andbeing unable to think because of it. spent these three months since it released on loop because it just scratches my brain in a certain way. also the aesthetic is SOOOO good!!!"

DEKIWAKU

"Toxic yaoi. Damn i didn't remember re:ng's kiyoteru being this good thanks for reminding me"

"THE VOICE SYNTHS ARE FUCKING GAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"Fake toxic yaoi fans when a REAL toxic yaoi enjoyer comes at them. also re:ng's music is just stupid good and so cool to listen to,,,"
