Nashville based artist Heather Mae has just shared the perfect seductive bop. This ode to queer lust and love, is called “All I Wanna Do” and it is a must add for any shimmery summer playlist.
The song shares a deep meaning with the artist writing a narrative influenced by the story in the Bible about Naomi and Ruth. Heather shares “
Ruth’s unwavering loyalty to Naomi, saying, ‘Where you go, I will go,’ is often seen by lesbians as a rare biblical example of sapphic love. Growing up, I knew these stories well, but compulsory heteronormativity and the purity movement made me invalidate my own queerness. Despite my early crushes and kisses with girls, I thought I was straight because I also liked boys. Those ‘Naomis’ in my life were just friends in my eyes. ‘All I Wanna Do’ celebrates those hidden sapphic connections, honoring the love that was always there, even when we couldn’t fully see it.” The result is a must hear evocative track that challenges the antigay religious naysayers. Deeply penetrating vocals, bass heavy beats and atmospheric synths complete the enthralling number.
Heather Mae has the unique ability to confront difficult truths with grace and authenticity. Whether she’s exploring personal struggles or societal issues, her music serves as a powerful reminder of the healing power of self-acceptance and compassion.
