I had not heard about Rina Sawayama until the queer internet gods somehow surfaced her on one of my feeds. But now all I want to do is follow her straight into “This Hell.” The Japanese-British singer has made what can only be called a definitive Pride bop. What? We still have two days left to dance it out. The artist, who identifies as pansexual, has made the queer line dancing wedding ceremony party of our dreams. As we witness the old-school return of 90s-style homophobia (why, oh why couldn’t we have left that out of our current 90s fashion revival?), songs that tweak the ridiculousness of these conservative bigots just hit different. Based on the hatemongers standards, we queers already know Hell is the place to be. Eternal damnation looks fun. Plus, all the best people will be there.
