I will never get over how inherently tied to the lgbtq community Crowley's canonical music tastes are. Both Queen and Velvet Underground had visibly queer leads who weren't afraid to step out of typical societal gender presentation. Not to mention that Lou Reed openly dated trans folks. You can pry Crowley's queerness from my cold dead hands.

Pale Blue Eyes
Guys, I just felt like listening to a bit of bebop.
As you do.
Saw that this was Crowley's favourite song.
Decided to try it out.
And now I am WRECKED.
WRECKED.
Thought of you as my mountain top
Thought of you as my peak
Thought of you as everything
I've had but couldn't keep
I am NOT OKAY... send hot chocolate...
*sobs*
