“Shy boy with too many secrets / I know what it’s like to be him.” In an Instagram post, Cole Redding describes “Gay Americana” as the song he wished he had growing up gay. In an earlier IG post, promoting the song, he captions the cover art as “MY WHOLE HEART. The scared, shy, self-hating 13-year-old me is real proud.” The handsome, talented pop musician should be proud for several reasons. First, he is an overcomer of troubling past experiences. He’s victorious. Secondly, he’s released an anthem that is authentic and moving. Redding penned “Gay Americana” with Stephan Santa Teresa and Rachel Kennedy.
“Put the stars and stripes
On a rainbow flag 🏳️🌈
And we’ll fight for love
Cause it’s all we have
We were born this way
And they can’t change that
No, we won’t go back.”
