Kelsea Ballerini’s “Homecoming Queen?” Lyrics Meaning
The best way to describe a homecoming queen is as a young lady who is a senior in high school and is formally voted as being the most-popular girl in her class. Understandably holding such a title would be taxing socially, as in such an individual being expected to always put on a happy face. And that is the reality that Kelsea Ballerini speaks to on this song.
It should be noted that Kelsea herself wasn’t a homecoming queen. Thus this song is meant to highlight a general pressure people – presumably with a special emphasis on fashionable women – feel, particularly in terms of managing unfavorable realities of their lives. And the ultimate message it is meant to convey is that it is okay to sometimes appear vulnerable. In other words, individuals should not be compelled to always appear as if they’re happy, even if they’re not. And once again, based on the title this would logically be directed at ladies who are to some degree in the public spotlight. So in that regard, we suspect this song was influenced by the singer’s own experiences with celebrity.
Did Kelsea Ballerini write “Homecoming Queen?”
Yes. Jimmy Robbins produced “Homecoming Queen” and also contributed to its lyrical composition alongside Nicolle Galyon and Ballerini.
Release Date
“Homecoming Queen” was officially released on 6 September 2019. Ballerini released it as the lead single from her third album.
What if I told you my homecoming queen comes home with me every night….that’s right!
i loVe this song so much it really puts a smile on my face people may say things about you but i belive your voice is beautiful and powerful THANKYOU!
i allways feels sad at the end i cry
I really love this song it makes me feel so happy. I normally hide my feelings when I’m depressed, so people don’t ask why I’m sad cause I hate talking about my feelings with people. I love all of kelsea Ballerina other songs, but this is one of my favorites.
I’m 65 years old: a housewife, mother and grandmother. I have never had an important social or notable position. This song is very meaningful to me because in my life I have had to hide my true feelings frequently. I believe that it is the society we live in. Many of us are like the homecoming queen.
this song is amazing it help me everyday get through my life thx Kelsea
this song is horrible 🤮🤢😷
Your stupid if you think this song is horrible
I am a 13 year old girl and I have to hide my real feelings sometimes and I cry when I get home but I fake it till I make it. Sometimes I am really really sad and no one knows because I am up jumping around and being crazy. On November 12 I broke up with my boyfriend/ best friend. We shared everything with each other. Anyway not to bore you with my life… My life is super hard sometimes and I don’t talk to anyone about it. This song everytime it comes on I am super happy and I love it so much! THANK YOU! YOU HAVE A BEAUTIFUL VOICE!!!
I love this song it really means a lot to me
i have an obsessive behavioral problem that i wish i never had . it has done nothing but make my life hell. i also recently discovered that i’m Bipolar. and i have these ongoing suicidal thoughts. because of it. Wishing i didn’t have to deal with this. Every day of my life. It has gotten to the point in my life that i developed social anxiety. and i choose not to let people in. because im scared of being rejected, Scared that their gonna think of me as nothing more than a stalker. When i only want for people to understand me. And not hate me. For people to give me a chance. This song means alot to me. And i can honestly say. some people are such assholes.
I Love this song so much it makes me happy to hear it. And you have an amazing voice Kelsea:)
