The next season of Netflix’s self-improvement series “Queer Eye” begins on December 31 and follows the cast to Texas to continue their mission of inspiration and empowerment. Miranda Lambert, a Texas native, has recorded the latest track for the series titled “Y’all Means All,” a snippet of which can be heard in the show’s teaser. She also released the whole song and lyric video on Thursday at midnight.
While the Queer Eye ambassadors donned cowboy hats and learn about boot-scooting (“What is a honky-tonk?” Tan France asks at one point), in the teaser, Lambert’s track starts to play. “Y’all Means All,” an energetic song with vibrant Dobro and handclaps, finds Lambert making a little space for everyone. “If your life is like a tornado, all you need is a smoke and a rainbow,” she sings before a chorus that includes a “Yes queen” and some free-associative wordplay.
Lambert has been a vocal supporter of the LGBTQ+ community in recent years, including showing up with her brother and his husband at a 2019 Pride festival. She released a dance remix of “Tequila Does” earlier in 2021, which included her brother and a wide cast of pals during a backyard pool party.
While Lambert’s Texas origins make her an obvious option for the Queer Eye spot, many other country artists are promoting inclusive messaging. Chris Housman, an LGBTQ+ singer, used the phrase “Y’all Means All” in his viral hit “Blueneck” earlier in 2021.
