The sequins, glitter and feathers are ready to fly, with the Sydney Gay & Lesbian Mardi Gras set to take over the city’s iconic Oxford Street later tonight.
But for those not able to make it along to tonight’s festivities, the team at ‘Rage’ has put together a special Mardi Gras playlist that they reckon will have you dancing through the night.
There are, of course, the usual suspects – from the likes of Kylie, Madonna, Lady Gaga, Beyonce, Dannii Minogue, George Michael etc etc, but there’s swags of fun pop numbers in there courtesy of Pet Shop Boys, Sam Sparro, Spice Girls, Geri Halliwell, Sugababes, Cheryl, Chantoozies, Bananarama, Boy George, Elton John, Rihanna, Courtney Act, Deuce, Tina Cousins, Ru Paul, Dana International, Heather Small and this year’s equal love anthem ‘Same Love’ by Macklemore and Ryan Lewis. The festivities kick off with Kylie’s ‘2 Hearts’ from 11 o’clock tonight.
Happy Mardi Gras!
Australia's first stop for pop!
