Dream Wife Share t.A.T.u. Cover For International Women’s Day

Dream Wife have released a cover of t.A.T.u.’s “All the Things She Said” to celebrate International Women’s Day.

The song, originally released in 2002, has been featured in Dream Wife’s setlists over the years. Speaking about the decision to release their own version, the band said “The legacy of ‘All The Things She Said’ is a total paradox – being both one of the most high profile examples of queerbaiting in pop culture and also one of the only positive depictions of same sex attraction us and our peers came across as youngsters. That and… it’s also an undeniable bop and everytime we play it live it absolutely pops off!”

They continue: “We recorded our cover of ‘All The Things She Said’ in a studio on the outskirts of Prague during our European headline tour. We had no idea what to expect from our first show in Prague and were thrilled to play to a room full of the most stylish lesbians (and lesbian adjacent people) we have ever seen. It felt cathartic, redemptive and very sexually charged to play this track live for such a receptive audience – as Queer people, for Queer people.”

Listen to the song below.

Dream Wife have also shared dates for their UK headline tour. The trek starts October 24th in Brighton and runs through November 2nd in Birkenhead. See all the dates below.
