You know about this guy? We already posted Lui&#8217;s singles &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/stereogum.com\/2487778\/meg-lui-shares-debut-single-gone-girl-featuring-sufjan-stevens\/music\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Gone Girl<\/a>&#8221; and &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/stereogum.com\/2505789\/meg-lui-announces-debut-album-instant-validation-produced-by-sufjan-stevens-hear-elvis-queen\/music\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Elvis Queen<\/a>.&#8221; Today, she shares an old-school country song about realizing she wasn&#8217;t nice enough to her parents.<\/p>\n<p>Sufjan Stevens co-produced Lui&#8217;s new song &#8220;Miss Queen Know It All&#8221; with Keenan O&#8217;Meara, and both Stevens and O&#8217;Meara sing backup on it. O&#8217;Meara plays pedal steel, and Stevens plays a bunch of instruments. It&#8217;s a lush waltz with a gentle orchestration, and the thing I&#8217;ll really take away from it is Lui&#8217;s plaintive and unflinching vocal. She brings a whole lot of emotional punch to the track. Here&#8217;s what she says about it:<\/p>\n<p>t&#8217;s basically about being a shithead to my parents and battling that little kid voice inside me that rears her fussy head every once in a while. It&#8217;s realizing that no matter how much time passes and the flaws that are discovered within one&#8217;s parents that they did their best with what they had at the time. Now that I&#8217;m on this new crazy journey of being a mom and a parent, I often joke that it will probably all come full circle at some point for me. But I think the only thing to do is to keep showing up with love, try to be present, and have him send me the therapy bills when the time comes.<\/p>\n<p>Check it out below.<\/p>\n<p>Instant Validation is out 9\/25 via Asthmatic Kitty.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"We&#8217;re about a month out from the release of singer-songwriter Meg Lui&#8217;s full-length debut Instant Validation, which she&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":328800,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[9,24,63,122,124,123],"class_list":["post-328799","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-queens","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc","tag-queens","tag-queens-headlines","tag-queens-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/328799","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=328799"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/328799\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/328800"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=328799"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=328799"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=328799"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
