Continuing with 1987, this playlist consists of twenty more songs from that year, most performed by artists who fall somewhere under the LGBTQ umbrella, a couple with queer lyrical content. Appearing for the first time in this playlist series is the late Godfather of House Music, Frankie Knuckles, with two classic tracks of the genre.
