Whilst the song and Grand’s performance were praised, the vio received some cricism particularly om LGBTQ+ activists about the way showed gay men as g onto their straight iends and beg rejected, turng to alhol their misery. My own opn is that the song self is not the issue, but wh few openly gay untry songs, particularly wh the mastream dtry receivg attentn, LGBTQ+ artists n be unfairly burned wh reprentg their muny rather than jt themselv.
