Wow, apparently this could be a serious song.


Much of the controversy revolves around whether or not this is a real person with a real agenda, or if this is a viral marketing campaign. Some gay rights advocates acknowledge that as a spoof there is humor, but claim the message behind it is still as malicious as someone who seriously possesses this opinion.[2][1][3] Debate has quickly risen regarding the authenticity of Davies' youth ministry activities, the band Evening Service, and the organization Love God's Way ranging from entertainment publications such as Spin[4] to thousands of personal blogs[2] Some in the blogosphere maintained that Davies was a true former homosexual seeking to convert other homosexuals to heterosexuality. Others considered Davies ministry and the video part of a carefully orchestrated hoax mocking the Christian Conservative community. Other controversy involve the claims on Donnie's website of what music "will make you gay."[5]

Gay rights organizations such as Heartstrong[6] are addressing this as a serious threat to the gay community. The reasoning is that whether or not it is a humorous spoof, the message behind it is still malicious and being disseminated without control and in the end accomplishes what it intended through humor.[2][1][3] Others have reasoned that, regardless of Davies' authenticity, his actions have played an important role in raising awareness of efforts to "reform" homosexuals.[7]

This is totally a parody. He's wearing a pink shirt throughout the entire video! Also "music that will make you gay" is an obvious joke. Irony is truly dead in America. :(

Ha, I never took the pink shirt into account.

He's doing a great job with this though, if it's all a joke.

I read Donnie Davies isn't his real name btw.

It'd be a shame if this was all a parody though.

I think it promotes a good message. :(
