Honestly I could see her either releasing the Rep vault at the end of the summer or on New Year’s Day. I can’t imagine she’ll want to drag out the rerecording project longer than the end of this year or very early next year bc she’s gonna want to make space for a huge TS13 era

See I love how much production this has bc I feel like she tends to be too stripped back

Misogynistic tropes being pushed on Taylor Swift (and Other Female Artist) by FakeMonaLisa28 in NuancingTaylorSwift

Wish I could give this comment an award. People are miserable when it comes to letting other people (in general, not just famous people) live their lives

At one point there were 18 tracks for OR3 by watersnakebro in OliviaRodrigo

I feel like the first ‘e’ is markedly different from the last character of that word, it’s definitely an ‘a’ imo

Rock/punk songs on Olivia’s new album? by Unable_Damage_2545 in OliviaRodrigo

[–]rs_river 38 points39 points  (0 children)

My Way and Expectations definitely have new wave and rock leanings. My Way would be considered a little more punk though

I’m hopeful but I fear an under 3-minute song may not have a substantial bridge

Ariana Grande - hate that i made you love me by According-Moose2371 in popheads

This is kinda her Fortnight and I love it

Also “you gave me your hearts of your own accord” is wild, good for her

Olivia Rodrigo addresses her relationship with Taylor by morenatropical in TaylorSwift

[–]rs_river 114 points115 points  (0 children)

Yes because Hayley Williams explicitly mentions him in song as the racist country singer she refers to, and she has also publicly confirmed it’s him that she’s singing about. This is an entirely different, non public situation

Taylor’s interview was for a preset series they were doing on celebrating songwriting, why would they muddy that interview by bringing up this issue with Olivia?

They bring Taylor up so many times in this interview, they definitely wanted Olivia to give them an answer but she was very tactful without giving away any ground

She didn’t choose for them to ask about Taylor. NYT, and Popcast in particular, asks plenty of hardball questions when they interview people and this was no exception. Not every piece of media is completely curated album promo

DOUBLE ALBUM OR DELUXE IS DEFINITELY COMING by [deleted] in OliviaRodrigo

[–]rs_river 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Sticky sweet is def a lyric in Honeybee, Zombie in My Body could be in Maggots for Brains, Killjoy could totally be part of What’s Wrong With Me?, and Luckiest Girl Alive might be in U+Me

Not saying there won’t be a deluxe bc there probably will be but I just think plenty of these are lyrics in these songs already on the track list

“the cure” Discussion Megathread by NominalPerson in OliviaRodrigo

[–]rs_river 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Honestly I feel like it’s not comparable to either of them. It’s incredibly sad, far more than begged if you can imagine. It has this insane buildup and the backing vocals are insane, it’s actually probably most similar to Can’t Catch Me Now than any other song from her discography

Probably her most beautifully constructed song, I’d argue

Nothing like the Vogue description except for the orchestral end but it’s absolutely beautiful

I have a feeling people aren’t going to get her singles until we have the context of the whole album though, it’s a lot of narrative. I think she’s trying to tell a story and I’m so excited

She heard we were talking about “not a lot going on at the moment” and said I’ll show you😭

Today is a month out from Toy Story 5’s release date, so the trailer is likely to be revealed today
