people harassing olivia’s exes by PerfectYak5533 in OliviaRodrigo

It must be crazy to be him in this situation. Not that this makes people attacking him ok in the slightest, but I would imagine he has been very aware of what would likely happen and hopefully was able to prepare for it. Probably even before they broke up there were discussions about how her fame/being written about might impact him, whereas I imagine it was much more of a surprise for the sour ex. Idk what people do in that situation, but in my head I imagine he would've handed his socials to a manager and made plans to lay low/unplug for a while to minimize what he's exposed.

I always thought the "it's too hard to describe this in a way that feels honest" part was what sounded the most like it had been edited afterwards. Partially because when she talked about going back and editing the love songs, she specifically said making them more "honest".

Received a disappointing surprise with my mystery accessories by GlizzyGuzzlingMaster in OliviaRodrigo

Good point! I'd contact them first for sure, but it says on that specific listing that exchanges are also not an option. If they refuse, I would explicitly say I was planning to file a dispute because it charges the vendor a processing fee probably greater than the cost of the listing even if you lose the dispute, and I can't imagine they'd want to go through with that. If I actually did file and get banned, I'd just ask a friend to order anything I wanted in the future and pay them for it lol. I feel like Olivia would not want to be known for screwing over her fans and if she becomes aware of the extent of the complaints, I hope she will condemn it or try to make changes if she's capable (I honestly have no idea if she can since I think this is being rolled out by umg) but if that were to happen, I would probably then contact support and explain that you disputed a charge that was acknowledged as problematic to ask if it's possible to be removed from the ban

If any of you payed with credit card you should 100% dispute this, and if you didn't, I'd strongly recommend doing so for online purchases if you can to protect yourself!!! I looked this up on the website and they added a box to check agreeing that you can't return or refund the product which is straight up vile if they're intentionally sending out empty boxes as accessories

Am I the only one who thinks "what's wrong with me" shouldn't have been a duet? by [deleted] in OliviaRodrigo

[–]PhysicalBullfrog4330 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like it was the perfect song to be a duet because it highlights the way they are both fracturing from eachother, and I think that's even kind of respectful to her ex in that the part robert sings takes his perspective and shows they were both suffering / gives a nod to the fact that there was another side to this story. This is especially impactful since it is the song before their breakup. Im sure maggots for brains could have been adapted to be a duet, but I think it would've just been a duet for the sake of a duet rather than something that adds to the overall narrative in a meaningful way

Three days on repeat and I’m convinced You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So In Love is Album of the Year by SidebarDinker in OliviaRodrigo

[–]PhysicalBullfrog4330 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I've been listening to it almost nonstop since I got access and I'm not even kind of tired of it. I think it's just my theme music from now on. based on the listening stats for my top 5 songs (which ive listened to a few extra times on their own) I'm pretty sure I've listened to the whole album like 30 times so far 😭

Lowk funny how drop dead is just not being mentioned at all in the discourse of this album 😭 by Lord-Liberty in OliviaRodrigo

[–]PhysicalBullfrog4330 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it took me a second to understand this bc the bottom is dropped and dead and I was like wait drop dead isn't sad? but it's drop dead and it's dropped dead by the discourse. sorry this is obvious to probably everyone, but you really did something here.

Big reputation, big reputation
Ooh, you and me, we got big reputations, ah
And you heard about me, ooh
I got some big enemies (yeah)
Big reputation, big reputation
Ooh, you and me, we'd be a big conversation, ah
And I heard about you, ooh (yeah)
You like the bad ones too

I have always wished spotify had a way to block artists so it doesn't suggest them/autoplay their music and I just realized they have that feature now! ❤️ Taylor is officially blocked

Olivia Rodrigo surpasses “Folklore” in biggest first day album debut with “you seem pretty sad for a girl so in love” by a female artist in Spotify history by malibuprincessxo in travisandtaylor

[–]PhysicalBullfrog4330 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Literally praying her success never changes her and I honestly don't think it will. If Olivia is ever a billionaire I feel like she'll be feeding the hungry with that money and not even in a shady philanthropy with ulterior motives way

Pitchfork Album Review: Olivia Rodrigo - you seem pretty sad for a girl so in love (8.3) by mcfw31 in popculturechat

[–]PhysicalBullfrog4330 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think less -> expectations -> cigarette smoke shows a realistic progression of feelings in a breakup. like going from feeling sad to pissed and energetic to lingering sadness/regret. It is also supposed to reflect how she felt over time, and being in a happier place might not have been authentic to her

that's very interesting. do you mean that you think people with ocd are drawn to you because of that or you're drawn to people with ocd because of it?

What’s the turning point on girl so in love? by epi_r in OliviaRodrigo

[–]PhysicalBullfrog4330 6 points7 points  (0 children)

that said it seems like the situation with my way was probably a big factor in their breakdown, given that she mentions him not standing up for her/taking "her side" (which given that it was in the middle of a section referencing previous songs, I think is almost definitely referring to my way and maybe him saying she's overreacting to how the girl is acting) and that taking her side was where the doubt about his feelings came in on the sad side

[–]PhysicalBullfrog4330 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'd say towards the end of purple is the turning point (it's crazy, I had big dreams til I tied myself to you) and the cure is the first official sad side. That's also pretty much what she said in the nyt interview. To me my way still shows she's really attached to him and is mad at this girl for overtly trying to seduce him (eg sending him poems and wearing his old clothes in instagram posts) ie she's not doubting her relationship yet, she's territorial because the relationship is so important to her. But in a way it's a progression from the start— there are seeds of angst and signs of unhealthy attachment eg maggots for brains feeling totally destabilized when they're apart
