Queerness in Pop Music

More about the book

Focusing on the intersection of queerness and popular music, the book analyzes various pop artists and styles to enrich queer popular music studies. It introduces a framework that combines theories of opacity and temporality, advocating for a dual approach of temporal-specific listening and biographic-oriented viewing. This interdisciplinary method reveals themes such as parody, nostalgia, camp, and irony, providing a deeper understanding of how these elements manifest in pop music.
