David Bowie And The Smiths Top Gayest Album Ever Poll

David Bowie's 'The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and The Spiders From Mars' has been voted the Gayest Album of All Time.

The 1972 album topped a poll ahead records by the likes of Tracy Chapman, Scissor Sisters and Madonna.

Two album by The Smiths – 'The Queen is Dead' and 'The Smiths' – also featured in the top-10.

Out Magazine polled more than 100 actors and musicians, including Boy George and Rufus Wainwright, in the survey.

Each contributor was asked what makes a great album and, for the benefit of the magazine, what makes a great album gay.

On Bowie's album, the magazine said: “It’s ironic that an album with an opener forecasting Earth’s expiration and a closer tackling celebrity excess and self-destruction remains one of the most liberating, uplifting records of all time - about as ironic as a straight man topping this list.”
