Honestly she's a pop star & not a politician. She's free to air or stay silent on her views. I applaud Olivia for being outspoken & advocating for things she care about- but there's no need to expect the same from Taylor. She has chosen to speak up & actively endorsed Kamala back in 2024, and that's enough if she feels that's the extent she wants to be involved in. We have to remember a wedding brings together 2 groups of people, and the less than desired attendees in her wedding may have been associated with Travis side, which may be out of Taylor's direct control. There's so many things we don't know about.

It was a MOMENT. It knocks so hard & till date it's one of the few Britney songs which did not age at all for me. The run of gimme more > womanizer > HIAM were amazing first singles.

It had the biggest opening sales week ever & was a cultural moment. She'll get a nomination. But the album quality is not up to standard to her classics. I don't think she'll win AOTY, but TFOO should win ROTY/SOTY. There are better albums this year - I think it'll be an Olivia who will take home AOTY this time (either Olivia Dean or Olivia Rodrigo, both of who had far superior albums). Saying this as the biggest Taylor fan ever… (I hope tay tay returns to form for TS13 and gets that coveted 5th AOTY).

Great great song. Deserves to smash & be her breakout hit. Rooting for her!

I love the album. It grows and grows. The first 5 tracks, bunny hop & like I do are impeccable for runs. HTIMYLM remains the best lead single she's ever released, and it's such a gem. Wished the album has been more positively received, but it's ok. It'll get its flowers one day. Can't believe Ari released her best 2 albums (eternal sunshine + petal) back to back like this. Rarely do we have artistes becoming better and better at their craft. So incredible to witness her artistry.

That's so odd since she just released a full album. Why not album 2.

Like I do reminds me somewhat of god is a woman. In a good way. Both are amazing and catchy. Like I do is soooo good, hope it has a chance to be released as a single, though I know Ari likely won't release anything else after "petal" the song..

As the biggest swiftie in the world, petal triumphs TLOAS so hard that it's not even close. TLOAS is one of my fav's worst albums, sans the two lead singles….

The album is so dissonant with left field chords from the usual ones we find in the pop landscape these days. Lyrics are honest & at times feels like unfiltered lines from a diary that may use some polishing, but I guess it was her intent to give something completely raw. A very solid album, and loving that Ari is still experimenting so hard so deep into her career. At this point she has so many #1 albums and 10 #1 BB100 hits, there's nothing left to prove anymore. I kind of wish there were some loud vocal moments that could elevate some of the tracks more, but I guess we can expect some live versions that may come out with live belts especially given she's on tour now. HTIMYLM live version had some amazing belting too. Listening to the album, HTIMYLM is the perfect choice for lead single. It remains one of if not her best song (to me), I really really love it so much. It's such a masterpiece. Hearing it in the context of the entire petal album feels amazing too. Petal (the single) is also another career highlight. The production is insane- and those falsetto vocals? Wow. I kinda wish she belted the final chorus, but I guess it's still lovely. Other standouts include oh well (wow she went scalping in this one), like I do (what kind of horny bop gosh?), and bad thing (make this a single please). This album will be divisible for sure. ES was more instant with clear singles from the get go (WCBF, TBIM), and even the deluxe tracks are pop leaning and meant to please the masses. This album isn't. I don't think it will do as well commercially, but I don't think this is Ari's intent.

It's an amazing single for sure. Olivia really outdid herself this era.

Excited! Think this will be amazing, especially as she even named the album after it .

Why are there sentiments that this might be Ari's last album this decade? She seems to be releasing an album every 1-3 years for awhile now, and there's still 3 more years after petal before the decade ends lol. Did Ari herself say that?

HTIMYLM by a long shot. It's probably even her best lead single. Love it so so so much.

Olivia Rodrigo should win for AOTY. Olivia Dean is probably her biggest competition in that category. Nothing else even comes close. For ROTY I hope TFOO wins; Taylor has never won in the general song category before.

Her magnum opus. The top 3 streamed songs should have all been singles and huge #1 hits. Wonderful era with universal acclaim. Hope Taylor goes back to making an acclaimed masterpiece like folklore for album #13.

I had always loved the mood and feel of this song. It's so dreamy and lush. Miss Britney and wish there'll be a 10th lead single, someday when she's ready…

Both are so awful but at least 143 is still real Katy- BJ is just so terrible on a different level as it is not even Britney in some songs.

I really hope not. But I wouldn't be surprised sadly… Hope she doesn't do it.

Lizzo honestly never felt big to me. Katy on the other hand, probably had one of the biggest fall from graces from pop throne.

He's vocally so strong. This eats. The people who loves beautiful things will like this. It'll do well!

The one in white singlet won the gene lottery and looks like Britney. He looks great. The one in black.. hmm he looks like Kevin, and whilst he don't look bad, he doesn't look like great enough to be a model on a runway.

Amazing numbers. No one is doing it like her in the new crop of IT pop stars, barring Taylor of course (but she's an anomaly). Olivia doing numbers bigger than Gaga's latest, Ari's peak, Rihanna's peak etc says a lot. She'll only continue to grow as her album is so stellar, she probably gained many new fans. She might even be looking at her first million debut in the next few years if she plays her cards right. If anyone can do it, it'll be her.

I love Taylor and she's my fav, but sis- not everything in the world is linked to Taylor. Liv's album is great and she's getting her deserved flowers. TLOAS was just not good and was deserving of the lower scores…

After many listens, I conclude that honeybee is probably my favourite Olivia song ever. Incredible

This is album of the year. So superb. Congrats Olivia, this is a masterpiece.
