Let's start with me admitting I was a blubbering mess watching this, but so was Keith Urban and half the audience. I can make logical arguments as to why this was extremely significant for the gay rights movement - a rapper, with a global reach and international audience, gave his airtime to use contemporary music as a vehicle for change, nothing about it seemed token, it wasn't over the top, etc. etc. - but it's mostly that watching it gave me this feeling we're going to win. There is no turning back now. Change has come. I rarely think mainstream art leads. Instead, I usually find when it's picked up in the mainstream, we have arrived. Okay, I'm off to re-watch it 500 times.
