I love it

I can just listen to the song over and over again. Afraid to say it, but it's even better than the rest of Sour. 

My CD just arrived! Lets see what the demo sounded like

Not really a fan of this song on first listen, I like the first verse but not really feeling the chorus

it's not SOUR level but it's fine. the pre-chorus and the bridge are amazing but the chorus being quiet is tiring, verses are okay

Another hit is coming for Olivia

and upload it to a certain place while you're at it 

The bridge, wow

Oh this is so so good. I really wasn’t expecting much growth from SOUR but she proved me wrong

 

 

Also I’m feeling like the reference to “Strange” is an Easter egg for the old demo “Strange” being a song on the new album since it was pretty viral on TikTok  

I love the instrumental but something about this isn’t working for me. Maybe it’ll grow 

Listening to the lyrics...who is this about?. Cause dang she WENT INNN

The demo version is basically just raw studio footage of her at the piano.

 

The lyrics in the second verse are also different 

 

‘When people ask me about it now, I don’t know what to say’

’Hard to admit I was a mark, an easy step to get your way’

I expected more tbh. I want to like it, but I don't.

Are we sure she’s really talking about an ex lover with this song?

She sure is and I think she means that an ex boyfriend of hers was only dating her for her fame/her connections

A ballad as the lead single released at the beginning of summer is a BOLD choice

It's not a ballad tho? Just the first 1/3

"Look at you, cool guy, you got it"

 

Definitely about a man she dated and not a female pop star like some fans are trying to claim

Oh, what a mesmerizing, paralyzing, ****** up little thrill
Can’t figure out just how you do it and God knows I never will
Went for me and not her
‘Cause girls your age know better

 

I think its about someone else

I thought she was gonna try and serve a Björk Bachelorette-type of video but what we got is cute

U sure?

What a let down tbh

This is really pretty good. She’s serving vocals tbh  the “blood sucker, fame fucker, ….. like a God damn vampire” is verrrrry Taylor-coded though

I think she means that girls that are his age (considering he's likely older) know better so they won't date him, so he goes for her because she's younger and likely more naive and easier to manipulate

It doesn't feel as euphoric as the last seconds of Déjà Vu but I like it very much
