Viime perjantaina kovin odotuksin julkaistun Hunter-levyn hiipivän hieno avausraita As a man.
Biisillä Anna Calvi jatkaa sukupuolten välisten olettamusten ja valtasuhteiden epäkohtien ihmettelyä:
”If a woman wants to be powerful she’s expected to exhibit ’male’ traits. The woman in the song is trying to understand a man by imagining becoming him, but as it progresses she asks the man to become more like her instead. There’s been a lot of encouragement for women to become more like men if they want to get their voices heard, or be powerful. But there hasn’t been enough effort to get men to become more like women. Men are brought up believing that to be feminine is to be weak. If there is to be equality, both sexes need to be able to move to the middle of the spectrum. This song is about finding freedom in the non-binary world.”
As a Man on jo kolmas Päivän biisi Hunterinta ja vähintäänkin yhtä hieno kuin edeltäjänsä Don’t Beat The Girl Out Of My Boy sekä Hunter.
Biisin tyylikkään videon voi tsekata Apple Musicista.
