By Stephanie Weber<\/h1>\n

This past summer, I took a nine hour journey to Virginia Beach with one of my good friends, and of course we made a playlist. My friend added \u201cShe Has A Girlfriend Now\u201d by Reel Big Fish. It ends with a memorable voiceover: \u201cI was at the Tegan and Sara concert last week. They were selling hotdogs and I was like \u2018No thank you.\u2019\u201d The reference to Canadian twin-sister duo Tegan and Sara sparked an ongoing conversation about lesbian music culture and how it has changed since we were young. Although I didn\u2019t start listening to Tegan and Sara until recently, many of my queer friends don\u2019t know who Tegan and Sara are, let alone their impact on the LGBTQ+ community as musicians and authors. Nonetheless, Tegan and Sara continue to uphold their icon status with their new album, \u201cCrybaby,\u201d and television show, High School<\/em>, both released this past month. <\/p>\n

\u201cCrybaby\u201d maintains the traditional Tegan and Sara electronic, indie pop sound accompanied with lyrical themes about being a young adult in a small town, breakups, and making independent choices. Although \u201cCrybaby\u201d is their tenth studio album, it\u2019s full of Tegan and Sara\u2019s original dance party vibes, layered with jutting vocals and references to queer culture and the lesbian experience. The album opens with \u201cI Can\u2019t Grow Up,\u201d a song perfect for that one coming of age a party scene in a gay romcom. It encapsulates the whole album, presenting a narrative about being in a relationship that\u2019s fizzling out but not wanting to break up because being alone is worse than staying together. The repetition of the line \u201cHow do I know when it\u2019s time to let go?\u201d follows the timid refrain, telling the listener that setting boundaries and breaking up will always be difficult, regardless of maturity or age. <\/p>\n

Dream pop song \u201cAll I Wanted\u201d serves as the second track, creating a chill mood to sway to in the background, perfect for the wallflowers of the world. Despite the song being danceable, it\u2019s heartbreaking at its core, with lyrics like \u201cI\u2019ve gotta walk away\u201d and \u201cNow I\u2019ve got nothing.\u201d \u201cAll I Wanted\u201d describes the desires of the storyteller, presumably from Tegan and Sara\u2019s perspective, and what she wants from this relationship. \u201cRight person, wrong time\u201d narratives dominate this track, documenting the falling out of the sad relationship. \u201cF*****g Up What Matters\u201d and \u201cYellow,\u201d the next two songs, follow the same pattern of breaking up but still missing each other. Both songs are slow and melancholic, with heavy drums and light guitar. <\/p>\n

The mood changes with \u201cSmoking Weed Alone,\u201d released as a single prior to the album drop. Falling back on their earlier electronic work, Tegan and Sara bring accountability to the forefront with lyrics like \u201cIf it\u2019s a choice\/it\u2019s my choice\u201d and \u201cIf it\u2019s my fault\/That\u2019s my fault.\u201d The upbeat musical elements shift the album from being a breakup album to one of change and healing on a personal level.<\/p>\n

\u201cFaded Like A Feeling\u201d may be the most heart-wrenching song on the album. Its agonizing lyrics are about finally seeing that one person you\u2019ve been craving, only to see each other as strangers despite having a long history together. The song is slow and sob-worthy. It\u2019s reflective and acts as a mirror to the rest of the album\u2014we get to see all the thinking that the protagonist has been doing in her relationship, ready to take the next steps to get over her breakup. \u201cI\u2019m Okay\u201d follows, bringing the album back to life and answering the question of how this person is really doing. Even though she\u2019s \u201cokay,\u201d the next track \u201cPretty Shitty Time\u201d shows the ways that our protagonist needs someone to fill this well of loneliness. The protagonist we\u2019re rooting for is reaching out for help, hoping to receive the support she deserves. <\/p>\n

Rather than the universe giving her another relationship, the protagonist looks within herself for support and love, shown in the electronic pop song \u201cUnder My Control.\u201d Lyrics like \u201cI should start working on myself again\/Get these feelings that I feel within\/Under my, under, under my control\u201d let the listener grow with the protagonist. Although Tegan and Sara frequently sing about queer relationships signposted by the pronoun \u201cshe,\u201d the use of \u201cshe\u201d in this song is not to signal an external relationship. Rather, with lyrics like \u201cShe says we gotta long life ahead,\u201d Tegan and Sara sing about how looking inside yourself for strength and support is crucial for healing. <\/p>\n

The last three tracks on the album, \u201cThis Ain\u2019t Going Well,\u201d \u201cSometimes I See Stars,\u201d and \u201cWhatever That Was,\u201d are tough at their cores. The protagonist is having a difficult time with the transition to single life and getting over this breakup. They\u2019re hard to listen to, cutting close to our lived experiences as fallible lovers and reminding us of past relationships we\u2019ve tried so hard to forget. The lyrics \u201cWhen this started, I was sure that\/This would be easy, I was looking for easy\u201d are devastating\u2014all I want to do is reach out and give this person a hug for all the hardship she\u2019s gone through. The last song on the album closes with the repeated line \u201cI don’t think about you much at all,\u201d showing the ways that our protagonist has grown from being in a difficult relationship, dealing with the repercussions of a breakup, and working on herself just for the relationship to linger in the future. <\/p>\n

\u201cCrybaby\u201d was released following the first season of the new television show High School<\/em>. The show is based on Tegan and Sara\u2019s 2019 memoir with the same title, documenting their lives growing up as twin sisters, reveling in their newfound queer identities, and grappling with hardships like the divorce of their parents. The show adaptation follows Tegan Quin (Railey Gilliland) and Sara Quin (Seazynn Gilliland) on their transition to a new high school, making friends and leaving old ones behind, and discovering music that connects them together. It\u2019s directed by Clea DuVall and is now streaming on Amazon Freevee. <\/p>\n

Not only is the show about the musical talent of Tegan and Sara, but it also includes other notable acts of the \u201890s. The show opens on a Bj\u00f6rk interview, Tegan learns to play guitar to \u201cPennyroyal Tea\u201d by Nirvana, and a whole episode is dedicated to going to a Green Day concert, not to mention the countless Smashing Pumpkins posters in the girls\u2019 bedrooms. Spoiler alert: there is a gut wrenching breakup in the show. <\/p>\n

\u201cCrybaby\u201d is the perfect follow-up album after finishing the show, connecting the adversities the twins face with the ability to become your own person and overcome difficulty. Tegan and Sara never cease to make my queer heart swoon with joy and break at the same time, pulling me apart and then putting me back together again in the span of 40 minutes \u2014 whether it\u2019s through an album or a TV show. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
