Some of y'all need to hear this one.()

If there was a song to soundtrack the moment a love interest in a 2020s rom-com is trying to figure out what they want in their love life, Chappell Roan's 'Good Luck, Babe!' is it.

Especially if it's a lesbian love story brimming with sapphic desire and conflicted feelings.

That exact mood is what the Midwest Princess tried to capture with this release while draping it in the decadence and frivolity of alt-pop icons.

Think Lady Gaga meets Kate Bush with camp Shakespearean costuming.

"I needed to write a song about a common situationship within queer relationships — where someone is struggling with coming to terms with themselves," she said.

"It's a song about wishing well to someone who is avoidant of their true feelings."

For fans of:

  • Dramatic revelry
  • Self-preservation
  • Knowing when to call it
