Olympic Diver Tom Daley Comes Out

Sotto_Voce says...

It's your upload, so keep it in the Gay channel if you'd like. But why do you think it's appropriate in that channel, given that Daley doesn't claim to be gay?

Is the "gay" channel generally considered to cover the entire LGBT spectrum? If so, I guess I have no objection to it being there.

I don't want to get into the semantics of the tags, but in my opinion this video is appropriate in the "gay" channel.

I'm not aware of it being a common strategem. I mean, maybe it is, but we can't just automatically assume someone is lying when they say they're bi. Genuinely bisexual people exist (example: me!), and I don't see any reason to doubt that Daley is one of them.

Isn't it a common stratagem to announce you're bi rather than gay? I suppose it's suppposed to make it easier for friends/relatives/psycho fans who don't know him to accept it.

Not sure how I feel about this being in the "Gay" channel. Daley has made it pretty clear that he's bisexual, not gay. And it's a pretty common problem that male bisexuals are regarded as a myth. People say things like "If you want to have sex with dudes, you're gay". I've seen a lot of news outlets report this story as Daley coming out as gay, and that just seems like more erasure of male bisexuality.

Jamie Carragher will kick both your asses.

Edit: Seriously, this is definitely a cricket style catch, and in one of the few countries that care about cricket. Ricky Ponting gets my vote.

Leftfield - Release The Pressure

Farhad2000 says...

Someone please tell me why this pumping ass version never made it to the album? The album version is shit compared to this! This is my favourite Leftfield song


Leftfield were a duo of electronica artists and record producers, Paul Daley (formerly of A Man Called Adam and the Brand New Heavies) and Neil Barnes, formed in 1989 in London, England. The name Leftfield was originally used simply by Neil Barnes for the first single Not Forgotten but after this Paul Daley was involved firstly in remixing songs and then in the creation of following music[1]. The pair were pioneers in the fields of intelligent dance music and progressive house, being the first to fuse house music with dub and reggae [Release the Pressure (1995)]. They furthermore were among the first electronic musicians to incorporate live guest vocalists, along with The Chemical Brothers and Underworld. Ultimately the duo have been influential on the electronic genre as a whole, with The Crystal Method's Scott Kirkland referring to them in 2005 as "The best Electronic band period."

Their downtempo music style has inspired a genre which has been recognised as simply leftfield, with several charts appearing in magazines such as DJ magazine and Mixmag. The genre is also known as "Chillout".
