Troye wants to be “One Of Your Girls”, Boy Radio’s HIMBO anthem, an ABBA legend returns: Your weekly bop roundup
Take a gander into the best releases in LGBTQ+ music in this week’s edition of “bop after bop”…We’ve finally been gifted Troye Sivan’s long-awaited new album Something To Give Each Other today, but the real treat is the album’s standout track “One Of Your Girls” and its accompanying music video.
Not only is the track lyrically impressive, with clever lines centered around queer yearning for guys who have never been with guys, but the song is sold by Troye’s charming speaking voice, a cadence that beckons the listener in and refuses to let you go.
Bursting into the chorus with the lyrics “Give me a call if you ever get lonely / I’ll be like one of your girls or your homies”, it encapsulates the longing the song revolves around, packing a powerful punch with its layers of synths and vocal effects that give a robotic, lifeless effect to this beckoning plea for affection.
It’s one of Troye’s most impressive tracks to date, and definitely his most gaggy video yet. I mean, Troye is serving in full drag while straddling Ross Lynch!?
