Taking the world by storm, Vienna Vienna’s latest track, "God Save The Queens," is a to-the-point, in-your-face anthem that refuses to whisper when it can shout. From the moment the song opens with spoken-word swagger, carried by a slinky funk bassline, it builds into an electrifying explosion of rock guitars and defiant vocals. The chorus, laced with an infectious riff and propelling rhythm, demands recognition for every Queen and "in-between," a declaration of pride and self-acceptance that leaves no space for subtlety.

And that’s exactly the point. As Vienna Vienna puts it: “JOY!! DO YOU HEAR ME??? JOY!!!! There are too many sad stories about us Queens… Fuck subtlety- I want it bold and I want it now!” The song isn’t just a party; it’s a protest, a demand for the love and respect that so many have fought for and we all deserve.

Lyrically, it’s dripping in queer iconography. There’s a cheeky exchange with a Hollywood street preacher, a vision of heaven where Freddie Mercury kisses David Bowie in roller skates, and Princess Diana urges Vienna Vienna to “go show them the way.” It’s a powerful reimagining of the afterlife, where LGBTQIA+ legends are not just welcomed but celebrated.

Describing his sound Vienna Vienna embraces their music as “glimmer rock,” and "God Save The Queens" proves exactly why. It’s loud, proud, and impossible to ignore- an unapologetic reminder that being yourself can be the greatest act of rebellion. It’s near impossible to feel anything but empowered when this song comes on, giving you that boost of energy needed to take on the day and embrace yourself.

With his tour already underway and several dates to choose from, fans will undoubtedly be racing to secure a place to see Vienna Vienna and hear their music live. Whether you’re listening from your earphones or in the pits at the stadium, Vienna Vienna will certainly have you on your feet, hooked, and absolutely addicted to their music.
