Background

On 26 January 2022, Hayes released a new single, "Let's Try Being in Love". [7] "I wanted to show I love the feminine in me, be proud of the gay me. There's a dance scene that is so passionate, everything's alive and thriving and blooming. That's how I feel in general about music. And that's a hugely sharp contrast to how I felt 10 years ago." On naming the album Homosexual, Hayes told Attitude magazine: "The most obvious [reason] is that I'm a gay man who grew up in an era when that word was used to shame and vilify people like me, so I wanted to reclaim it [...] In 2022 I'm living in a time and in a country where the freedoms of LGBTQI+ people are more at risk than they've ever been. [8]

Hayes told Music Feeds "My new album was born from a desire to rid myself of the grief I developed over the years I lost to shame growing up in a world where being gay was met with rejection and condemnation. I wanted to revisit my teenage years with the wisdom of a proud 50-year-old gay man and revisit my youthful memories and view them through this new peach-tinted lens of joy." He went on to say "The production on my album is deeply inspired by 1985 to 1987, memories of listening to the 12-inch extended mixes of my favourite Madonna or George Michael songs. [9]

Production

In a 2023 interview with The Music , Hayes shared: "I don't play the guitar, but there are guitar solos on this record; how did I do it? I sang and put my voice through a guitar amp and distorted it. These wonderful limitations made me think and be creative within constraints and feel like I was 19 again and trying to just work out how to track my voice or how to make demos [...] When I write music, I see visuals and create worlds. For this album, for example, I created the visual world first. I bought clothing from vintage sellers online from the mid-1980s, I was obsessed with the colour peach, and I had folders of clip art and imagery online that evoked a period in time that looked exactly like the music sounded."

Giselle Au-Nhien Nguyen, reviewing the album for The Sydney Morning Herald , gave the album three-and-a-half stars and wrote that "there's something thrilling about hearing a musician who’s been a mainstay in Australian pop for so long go his own way, with little care for others' expectations. There's a real sense of hard-won independence on this record, a sense of personal liberation." [30] The Independent gave the LP 5/5 stars, calling it a "proud and simple reclamation". [32] Billboard opined Hayes "employs the blissful, gay-club-adjacent dance-pop of the early aughts to dissect his own trauma [...] It’s neither happy nor sad — it’s honest." [33] Entertainment Focus rated the album 4/5 stars and called it a “triumph”, adding that Hayes “deserve[d] to be held high among the best pop artists in the music industry”. [34] Metro Weekly rated Homosexual 4/5 stars, praising the "celebration of identity and freedom", adding that the album "feels like Darren Hayes [is] at his most free and unencumbered as an artist." [35]

[38] However, when the UK Albums Chart was released on 14 October 2022, Homosexual debuted at number 82, [39] as well as at number 3 on the UK Album Downloads Chart [40] and number 13 on the UK Album Sales Chart. [41]

Tour critical reception

Review for the Do You Remember? tour were positive. For the Brisbane show in February 2023, Peter Gray, writing for The AU Review, rated the show 3.5/5 stars, opining "in spite of the production’s need for some tightening and polishing regarding the staging and choreography, Hayes, his open personality, and beautiful falsetto maintained the overall engagement." [50] Brendon Veevers, reviewing for Renowned for Sound praised the "stripped back moments where Hayes really shone, as well as moments of vulnerability where the singer would let us into moments in his life and journey as a son, a singer and a proud gay man", adding the whole production "truly turned out a spectacular night filled with music, love self-acceptance and nostalgia [...] an incredible night overflowing with some of the pops finest pennings from a true superstar of pop!" [51] Kevin Cooper, reviewing the Royal Concert Hall stop in Nottingham on 21 March 2023 for UK Music Reviews, praised Hayes' performance, claiming his "vocals had been outstanding and his stage presence captivating." [52] Angela Pearson, for Purple Revolver, rated Do You Remember? 5/5 stars. Pearson gave Hayes a glowing review, and wrote "Darren bowing out of the limelight his talent so clearly deserves, and flourishes in, for the last 11 years was undoubtedly a vital personal choice for him, but I cannot help but mourn the lost time and potential for more music that was quashed. The fact music industry bosses perpetuated the homophobic shame he felt after he had the courage to come out is unforgivable. But, where we find Darren now feels so good - it is a privilege to have witnessed him return as his authentic self." [53]
