Manchester Pride Spotify Playlist 2022: what are the most popular Pride songs ahead of Pride 2022?

Manchester Pride is coming around soon, and all attending the event will be getting ready to have a great time.

The event will see lots of music and songs played, as everyone celebrates what is sure to be a huge event.

To help you pick out the best songs for Manchester Pride this year, drag brunch experts Fabulous Beyond Productions have compiled data from Spotify to sort the most popular Pride songs into a playlist.

Fabulous Beyond has got together the songs which appear in the most Pride playlists, with Lady Gaga’s ‘Born This Way’ claiming top spot appearing in 324 Pride themed playlists.

Greg Hughes, owner of Fabulous Beyond Productions, said: “We love celebrating Pride in multiple cities around the UK throughout the year and we know a thing or two about throwing a party.

“It’s unsurprising to see songs like Born This Way, I’m Coming Out and Express Yourself in this list but it is surprising to see new songs from Lizzo and Beyonce already hitting the top spots after only being out less than a year.

“This top 25 really showcases queer music taste throughout the decades and we’re sure a lot of these tracks will stay in most partygoers playlists for years to come.”
