She literally mentions this then says they all have crowns.Ā That's my perception of it, and it wouldn't surprise me if that's the meaning behind it. That's exactly what it is.

matteonster 410 Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 I really like the message and the attitude, it was a great choice to release in pride month.Ā Not into the melody just yet but knowing myself who prefers a good theme or lyrics over that, I think Iām gonna be bopping to it shortly. āDon't you ever let a soul in the world tell you that you can't be exactly who you are.ā Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Othon 32,267 Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Really disappointing. The gay stuff is whatever, fine, you love us.Ā Thanks for not being a bigot. And releasing it during pride month is great marketing (ughĀ ).Ā I wish she'd picked a less stale pun than gay/gay. That joke got old decades ago. The term "shade" has been ruined for years too, andĀ hearing it packaged like thisĀ really does driveĀ the final nail into its coffin. It feels weird to devote a song to internet stans like this, particularly when you acknowledge thatĀ a lot of the criticism Swift receives is warranted, and I definitely don't like the fact that the song operates both as a criticism of homophobes and stans. Conflating those two things is pretty gross, especially given what people actually criticize her for on stan Twitter (being an out of touch white girl). The song itself is just so bland. There are a couple of interesting bits of wordplay, but she hasn't been able to balance the specificity of language/story withĀ broadĀ appeal likeĀ sheĀ managed to do in so many of her older songs. I was hoping we'd get more of the Speak Now version of TS, but I guess not. Hopefully the rest of the album delivers what these first two singles haven't been able to.

The13thNote 1,390 Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Its better than ME and I can dig it.Ā This is obviously a song firing shots at internet stans. Thats what the gay shade line and the stepping on our gowns and queens lines are about.Ā She is saying stan twitter should stop pitting women against eachother.Ā Ā I feel like this album might be her gayest yet lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARTPOPSLAYAGE 185 Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 I personally love it! It's a bop, and WAY better than ME! In my opinion. I liked ME! but it aged poorly already, but this song has replay value and is already stuck in my head! Plus I love all the gay references, and I have a strong feeling there will be drag queens in the music video!Ā Ā Ā Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
