Stacey Q’s “Two of Hearts” is a gay classic, made even more popular after appearing on the soundtrack for indie hit Party Monster, starring Macaulay Culkin as club kid extraordinaire and convicted murderer Michael Alig. A favourite of drag queens, “Two of Hearts” has been one of the songs the queens had to lip-sync for their life to on RuPaul’s Drag Race, and Stacey herself has appeared on RuPaul’s Drag U as a student.

Check out the original video for the song, released in 1986:
