If you thought I'd be ending the year with anyone other than Olivia Rodrigo, you haven't been paying attention.
Olivia Rodrigo released, in my opinion, the best album of 2023 - GUTS - and, unlike other years for me, it wasn't close. It's incredible, and, if you like pop music, especially power pop, you need to check it out.
This is my 4th post about Olivia this year - the most of any artist. This is mostly because every song she releases nowadays ia a straight-up banger.
I rarely swear on this blog. And, in two of my previous posts about her, I used the big one. The F-dash-dash-dash. I didn't say 'fudge'.
Anyway, this song contiunes the teen angst themes from GUTS, and it's deeper than you think. The phrase "get him back" could mean that she wants the relationship to resume, or it could mean that she wants revenge. She address both in her lyrics.
The video was filmed entirely on an iPhone 15 Pro Max - before its announcement - and released soon after that device was available for public purchase.
There are a lot of live performances of this song, but I am partial to this acoustic version It's practically acapella, with her voice shining through very strongly.
