Prepare to beam with P-R-I-D-E πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ! Beaming with Pride πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ celebrates, embraces, and spotlights songs by LGBTQ musicians or allies.  Here, we provide background and insight into musician(s) and analyze + go gaga over the decadent bops served up.  When the music dictates deeper, more transcendent discussion, we ensure the point is fully articulated.  All styles of music are welcome while the songs can be classics or brand-spanking new. So, without further ado, in the 13th edition of Beaming with Pride πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ (2025), we highlight β€œTwo Things Can Be True” performed by FLETCHER.

FLETCHER, In Search of the Antidote [πŸ“·: Snapback Entertainment LLC / UMG Recordings, Inc.]β€œDid I want more than friends? Maybe / Should I have gotten involved? No / But did I like it every time we touched? Yeah.” In β€œTwo Things Can Be True”, the fifth track from In Search of the Antidote (2024),  pop singer/songwriter FLETCHER (Cari Fletcher) messed around with a β€˜straight’ (possibly bi) girl. β€œWas I delusional in thinkin’ I could be in your life after all of this? Yup.” In the pre-chorus, she sings, β€œNow you found someone else to hold you / In all the ways I couldn’t / It hurts, he makes you happier.” Interesting, at least for the listener, not so much for Cari. FLETCHER, Jennifer Decliveo, and Julia Michaels penned β€œTwo Things Can Be True.” Decliveo produced it.

Throughout β€œTwo Things Can Be True,” FLETCHER serves up sickening vocals.  The lyrics come directly from the heart.  Their β€˜relationship’ (or hook ups) are history. FLETCHER’S ex-girlfriend is now with him. Bummer! The chorus perfectly sums up the sentiment – truly, two things can be true!

β€œTwo things can be true

He can love you, baby, and, baby, I can too

Things, they can be true

You can have his body and still think of mine too

You can still call mΠ΅ up at night

He can still be the lovΠ΅ of your life

You can ignore me in every room and still miss me

And me too, things can be true

He can love you, baby, and, baby, I can too.”

Ultimately, FLETCHER still has feelings for her on β€œTwo Things Can Be True” –  she still wants some sort of relationship. If you are LGBTQ, particularly the β€˜L’ or β€˜G,’ you have likely fallen for a straight girl or guy.  The situation can also be flipped – a straight guy falling for a lesbian, or a heterosexual girl falling for a gay guy.  This bop from Cari Fletcher is R-E-L-A-T-A-B-L-E!
