We all know by now how much Disney means to me. As well as Disney being a big part of my life, I’m also a member of the LGBTQ+ community; something that I haven’t hesitated to be vocal about in recent years. As you can imagine, I feel strongly about the inclusion of LGBTQ+ characters within Disney. A big subject that’s been debated for quite some time now is whether or not Disney needs an LGBTQ+ Princess. So, does Disney need an LGBTQ+ Princess? Many people argue that just the inclusion of a character that’s LGBTQ+ is enough and that they don’t need to be the main character to be regarded as a Princess. This is true to a certain extent. Yes, any sort of representation – even if it’s not a main character, is important. Representation always matters no matter how big or small the role is. However, LGBTQ+ characters have had to face years upon years of being sidelined, erased or killed off; which is reflective of the way some people in society view those in the LGBTQ+ community.

This month is LGBT History Month so to celebrate this, you can definitely expect some posts relating to LGBT issues from me this month. For today’s post, I thought I would combine this with my love for Disney and share with you five Disney songs that I personally think can make great LGBTQ+ anthems. ‘Let It Go’ – ‘Frozen’ In the case of ‘Frozen’, it’s not even just the song that can be representative of being LGBT, but Elsa’s journey of embracing who she is and learning that she doesn’t have to hide anymore can ring true to a lot of people on the journey of coming out. ‘Conceal, don’t feel, don’t let them know’ are lyrics that really resonate with me and take me back to before I’d come out. I know I’m not alone in saying that before I came out, I didn’t even want to admit to myself that there could be a chance that I was Bi. I concealed it to the point where I wouldn’t admit what I was feeling – and I definitely didn’t let anyone know. Throughout the song, we see Elsa trans...

Before I get started with the review, lets get something out of the way: Yes, Busted are back. They have been for over three years now (so if you didn’t know this then I can only assume you’ve been living under a rock…) and in that space of time, they’ve been on two tours: one arena tour and one tour of lots of intimate venues. They played Glastonbury and took it by storm, and also released their 3 rd album: ‘Night Driver’. For a lot of 2018, the band spent time working hard (and battling bats) on bringing to life the album of everyone’s dreams – their fourth and latest album that dropped today: ‘Half Way There’. The excitement that came from the trio throughout the process of writing and recording this album has had fans hyped for countless months. This album was earmarked as being the album that shows that ‘Busted are back back’ and having listened to the album in its entirety since it dropped at midnight – I can safely say that Busted, are in fact, back back. Admittedly, ...
