Rascal Flatts Love Who You Love Released - Reaching out to Gay Fans?
Rascal Flatts Love Who You Love
Rascal Flatts released “Love Who You Love” today on iTunes. The song is a reminder to show love the people closest to you. However, in an interview with CMT it seems that Rascal Flatts is specifically reaching out to and embracing their gay fans.
“We actually have some gay people that work with us, and we have a lot of friends that are gay, too, and I know that this song has inspired them,” said singer Gary LeVox during an interview at CMT earlier this month. “I know that coming out was tough on their parents and on them and the whole entire family. For a long time, some of them didn’t get to hear ‘I love you’ from their dads or be accepted in that way. … It’s helped a lot of our friends.”
“That’s what’s cool about our music,” says guitarist Joe Don Rooney. “You can interpret (it like) that. If you get that — it’s perfect. If you are someone who’s gay or someone who’s straight, you still feel something from the song, and that’s what we want.”
“We don’t judge anybody’s lives,” says bassist Jay DeMarcus.
“Love Who You Love” will be the first track on their new album, Unstoppable, which will be released in its entirety on April 7.
