Darren Hayes is currently releasing some of his strongest singles with gems including Let’s Try Being In Love and the emotionally raw Poison Blood. The Australian musician is set to release even more with the reveal of Homosexual, his brilliantly titled fifth studio album. Darren accompanies the news of the upcoming fourteen track album with new single All You Pretty Things.
All You Pretty Things is a queer dancefloor anthem that pays tribute to the victims of the shooting at Pulse Nightclub in 2016. Darren shares: “I decided to write a song about their happiness frozen in time in a way they deserved to be remembered. I connected that joyful moment to the LGBTQI musical pioneers who have inspired me, now long passed, and those political activists responsible for the freedoms I enjoy today. I came up with my own way to say thank you with a simple phrase: “We’ve Got To Dance to Remember Them.” Ultimately, that’s where my own freedom began. I really came out and into myself on the dance floor and that’s where my tribute continues.”
There’s some really poignant lyricism shining throughout the single, which shines as a sincere tribute to LGBTQI+ inspirations.
