YMCA singer Victor Willis has U-turned on his opposition to Donald Trump using the song in his rallies - while urging fans not to call it a 'gay anthem'. The 73-year-old founding member of Village People band previously urged the incoming president to stop playing their 1978 disco hit at his political demos. But on Sunday Willis changed his tune, saying he 'didn't have the heart' to continue fighting Trump's team after seeing how much the president-elect 'seems to genuinely like YMCA'. The airtime has pushed the song towards the top of the Billboard charts.
