Coming from Don Bosco back in high school, and being exposed to the gay kind (taking Computer as your specialty will give you 3/4 of the whole gay population in your batch) many a time, I know for a fact that Mariah Carey is somewhat of an icon for them. If they could choose to put a person on a pedestal of a god, Mariah Carey would top their list.
Having said that, I daresay that you cannot call yourself a legit gay guy if you don't know her songs by heart. Or at least three songs.
Anyway, "Always be My Baby" was one of the gayest songs ever, in my opinion. And then that David Cook guy decided to sing his version of it. Knowing what song he chose, I think most of the people who watched his performance were all too curious at how miserably he was going to fail. But alas, he made it into a hit. And not long after, you hear it in the radio. Than after a bit, you get tired of it, because once it is played in the "kailangan pa bang imemorize yan" stations, ibig sabihin gasgas na ang kanta. At jologs ka kung meron ka pa sa playlist mo ng kantang yun.
So, I thought nothing, as in nothing would top that gay-song-turned-cult-theme thing that David Cook did for that song. And then came Daughtry, and then I remembered, before David Cook, Daughtry was the guy who brought "rock" in AI.
