LGBT Worldwide Music Videos – Part II

Ricky Martin – Lo Mejor de mi Vida Eres Tú

Say what you say about songs not in English, but Ricky Martin’s Lo Mejor de mi Vida Eres Tu is far superior to its English version — we didn’t even mention that when posting the video.

The stylish music video stands for equality and has good vibes to spare, telling people that “the best thing in your life is them.” That, alongside Ricky’s own coming out and accepting his sexuality as he takes his newest role of not only as a parent but an ambassador to all LGBT people that have wondered about roles models to follow — make this a keeper.

Ricky is a latino gay man known around the world, and he’s proud of it. Your tia knows it, your abuelita knows it. There’s no better LGBT role model right now as Ricky~

    Hmmm… I dunno if the arabic pop MV should be so high up – but say what you say about sad music videos (gay or straight), there’s something so much more when there’s tragedy in a video!

      @ghost, sadness is cathartic! LOL They are more memorable than happy music videos unless they’re incredibly beautifully shot. Having said that, I still think that Elva Hsiao and Amei’s music videos (though happy) are perfect.

    Oh I found out that the first place comes to Ricky XD
    I’m latin girl so I know how this thing is in latinamerica and was kinda shock when he told the world he was gay. even so… I suspected about it… everyone did…

    =) Ah… I think I’m gonna have a long time watching all these videos. I’m in love with gay love even so I’m not gay hehe thanks for the suggestions…
