Bette Midler - “The Rose”

Best song in the history of songs? I think so.

I grew up on this shit because my mom’s a big Bette Midler fan, so of course there’s a special spot in my pop-lover’s heart for Bette Midler.

What’s really funny about this song is that many young people’s only point of reference for this song is the Happy Hands Club’s rendition of it in “Napoleon Dynamite.” Which was hilarious, so I’m totally OK with it.

But still… Isn’t it a fantastically awful love song? Combine it with “Wind Beneath My Wings” and you’ve got six minutes the gayest tear-jerkers ever.

Bette Midler - “Wind Beneath My Wings”

I’ve lost track of how many times I’ve sung this song to my friends as a joke. I’ve also lost track of how many times I heard it growing up, because my mom was a big Bette Midler fan.

As far as ultra-sappy ’80s ballads go, this has to be one of my favorites. And even though I’ve never seen “Beaches,” this clip almost makes me want to cry a gay tear for Bette Midler’s dying friend.
