Baby Queen shares new single "We Can Be Anything"
"We Can Be Anything" is the second single from Baby Queen's forthcoming debut album.
Directed by Claryn Chong, the video for "We Can Be Anything" picks up the narrative from the video for Baby Queens’s previous single "Dream Girl", which ushered in a new era for Baby Queen and was her biggest streaming launch to date.
“I’ve been having a prolonged existential crisis for the better part of the past 5 years and would consider myself to be a nihilist in many ways, which has made being alive quite bleak at times. I think human beings really crave purpose but there is ultimately no clear-cut reason we’re here and if there is one, we’re just not intelligent enough to figure it out," says Baby Queen.
"Despite it all, life is beautiful and i think our lack of purpose and our insignificance gives us the greatest level of freedom. Society, culture, rules, laws - these are all constructs. I like to believe that as long as you’re not hurting people, you do have the freedom and the prerogative to do with your life what you will. That’s what this song is about: non-confinement and non-conformity in the face of what is essentially absurdity. I just want people to listen to it and feel free - because they are free."
Baby Queen released a string of singles last year, including "Lazy", "Nobody Really Cares", and "Colours of You" which was a track written specifically for Netflix’s global hit LGBTQ+ drama Heartstopper.
