Story
IF YOU BELIEVE IN LOVE - LET US SAY 'I DO' - and help us sing it from the rooftops!
SNEAK PEEK: Let Us Say I Do > rough cut straight outta the rehearsal room:
SO, WHAT'S THE DEAL?
Anyone who is not Australian will more than likely be surprised to learn that we do not have Marriage Equality in Australia. I know, I know - Kylie Minogue & Mardi Gras & Priscilla and all that, - it's shocking, right? Despite all our queer fabulousness, Australia's Marriage Act states that "marriage is strictly between a man and a woman" preventing same-sex couples the right to marry.
This September, Australia has spent $122 million on a non-compulsory, non-legally binding postal survey asking Australians: 'Should the law be changed to allow same-sex couples to marry?' This survey - (note it's not a vote, but a survey) - has been a cause of deep hurt, frustration and shame for many Australians who deeply believe in the simple right for all consenting adults to unite in love and be fully recognised, protected and celebrated by Australia's marriage act.
To combat the negative, hurtful and hateful rhetoric being flung around as a result of this survey we bring this offering of light to balance out the darkness. Despite the very notion of this survey being deeply offensive and ridiculous - we work with what we've got and embody what we value: kindness, courage & unity.
This song is an offering of support, beauty & kindness, and heckfire, we all know our world needs that shiz by the bucketload. We're raising some pennies to get this track recorded & produced on the cheap here in London, in order to sail it into the world to promote all that goodness that we stand for.
If you want to support but can't make a donation, don't despair - we're looking for people to get involved with our music video as well: more details here on our website: www.whobelievsinlove.com
NB: ANY EXCESS MONIES RAISED WILL BE DONATED TO LGBTQI CHARITIES IN AUSTRALIA FIGHTING THE GOOD FIGHT FOR OUR RIGHTS.
