Self Esteem has released a new single.
69 is a sex-focused house track featuring a guest appearance from legendary American drag queen Meatball. Introducing it, Rebecca Lucy Taylor said:
“I always wanted to write a song that lists sex positions and rates them. A lot of my music is saying the things I struggle to say in real life. I like the idea of clearly communicating your needs in one quick, three-minute house song. It is also political – women still are expected to cater to others sexually; I can’t hear another discussion about ‘faking it’, it upsets me too much! There’s enough inequality in the male/ female dynamic as it is. Our bodies go through so much more pain and suffering, please god let us get the pleasure where we can!
“I’d already written the song and then months later my all-time favourite drag queen Meatball said pretty much the same on her podcast Sloppy Seconds, and I knew it had to make the album!”
The song is the second to be shared from Taylor's new Self Esteem album, 'A Complicated Woman', which is due for release on April 25. The first single, Focus Is Power, arrived alongside news of the record in late January.
Self Esteem will headline this summer's End Of The Road festival at Larmer Tree Gardens in Salisbury, Wiltshire.
