1 step forward, 3 steps back - Olivia Rodrigo (stripped-down cover ft. dodie) | stories

[@doddleoddle]

Oh thank you for having me!!!!! How lush this was 🖤

[@ashleyyrain]

you singing it makes it that much more heartbreaking (in a good way). came straight from insta to listen to the whole thing. love u

[@j__r0d]

you have the perfect voice for stories! I hope to see many more of these in the future!

[@rowel_patdu6551]

came here only for u

[@RPRosen-ki2fk]

Dodie, been a fan of yours for years, but never in a million years did I expect to see you at stories. I'm glad they brought you in because I never realized how beautiful your voice could be. This exceeded every song I've had the pleasure of hearing you perform, WELL DONE.

[@Eleven_Mage011]

I need this available for purchase now!!! Take all my money!!! I love this so much more than the original!!!

[@jessevandendoren]

Dodie's voice is amazing. She sings in font size 7, but an incredible emotional font size 7.

[@debmurray2734]

Perfect analogy ♥️

[@sabertoothedcapybara]

Yeah, it’s not even a standard type face. It’s handwritten cursive with a 24k gold-nibbed fountain pen in small letters, and as the emotions pour you can see how it changes the flourishes on the letters.

[@jenjen9613]

This is a weird comment but it’s perfect lol

[@ffximasterroshi]

Nothing better than listening to Dodie. She is the feeling of a warm blanket and fireplace after working for hours in the snow. She is the sensation you get smelling petricor after a summer drought. She is the relief that you feel as you take your first unlabored breath after weeks of congestion and illness. She is a mothers voice heard over the crowd after you have been lost and scared. She is healing, she is the moment of relief.

[@whoknows4780]

She smells like apple juice and peach.

[@BexiAF]

And she means everything to me.

[@Kirarak]

And this is getting creepy :D

[@ffximasterroshi]

@@Kirarak I was thinking the same thing after the "my everything" comment. I intentionally tried to keep my comparisons to feelings/sensations, those tingles of happiness you get when thinking of someone you admire but don't really know.

[@ccx7004]

@@ffximasterroshi sorry for butting in, i was just reading this thread and wanted to clarify the other 2 commenters were quoting the lyrics from dodie’s song “she”, since the way you phrased your comment has a similar vibe to that song; i doubt they meant to be creepy :)

[@flouce]

I didn’t realise how much I missed Dodie also doing covers. She just transformed one of my favourite songs into something even better somehow

[@Matheus-ly6eu]

Oh, shit. For me, this arrangement really highlighted this song's potential to become a true classic. Like, one for the ages.

[@nternetrat]

amazingggg

[@Burnzybabyy]

YES!!!

[@david_c_rice]

Saving the bass for the end was an absolutely genius move

[@Mathieulucasmusic]

Everything Philip Etherington touches turns into gold.

[@ianstevenson1930]

Well that was just so strange having Dodie cover Olivia Rodrigo. And how beautiful! Thank you.

[@strawberrycats6880]

every dodie cover feels so cozy and I love this one so so much

[@ofthenearfuture]

Amazing performances as always, dodie has a beautiful timbre for this song. But the quality of the recording and production was also incredible, shout out to Justin and Philip.

[@ghitas5278]

So beautiful ! Dodie can make anything sound very gentle and sweet !

[@neveerland]

she makes it sound like a lizzy mcalpine song! so lovely

[@SunRay596]

lizzy opened for dodie for some of her build a problem tour the other year!

[@likeblessbutwithaG]

patiently waiting for this to be on spotify

[@jefframminger1420]

This may be my favorite "stories" arrangement and performance to date. Just stunning. dodie's vocal is so emotional

[@chrisstephenson9386]

This was so so beautiful and appropriate. Are there any more tracks to come from this session? And can we please have tracks like this on the streaming services?

[@gabrielbolanos3871]

The surprise spicy chord in the chorus made me sub. Love this cover, and so glad that you got a chance to collab with Dodie!

[@TabithaSilverson]

i will always be so in love with dodies voice, never fails to reduce me to tears..

[@rj4063]

Dodie’s voice is so gently beautiful, I love her style and ugh- it’s so good

[@damstevieray]

Dodie dodie dodie ... That must be my favorite cover of this channel. This girl sing like an angel

[@jecaosorio736]

Dodie's voice sounds like a warm hug or that first sip from a freshly brewed tea in a damp, rainy day

[@architectofechoes4]

Love how the beautiful vocals sit right at the front of the mix with a real closeness to the ear of the listener. (if that makes sense?). Wonderful.

[@chrispenney]

That voice is MAGNIFICENT

[@mikeyboy199199]

These are fantastic Ryan, It's so cool to have popular songs that I dont particuarly like, made into arrangements I love and listen to. Love this channel

[@theknight3583]

I love how stripped down this is, this is great dodie!

[@psalm8306]

Got the chills with the first few lines. Love you Dodes!

[@allyzanicolehernandez]

ahh dodie's voice never fail to bring me such comfort. it feels like coming home 🥹💌

[@CurtisKlope]

those guitar tones are unreal

[@konkeez]

Dodie's songs have always made me cry if they hit hard and this Olivia song has left a wound on my entire soul since I first heard it. To see the two combine like this is just a new type of heartbreak... hurting... BUT IN A GOOD WAY

[@Hopexi]

I like Dodie's version more than original. I wonder when will you upload this song to your playlist on Spotify?

[@sylviafossmorgan2339]

[@kashalakasha2092]

[@ninowilson]

Called you on the phone today Just to ask you how you were All I did was speak normally Somehow I still struck a nerve You got me fucked up in the head, boy Never doubted myself so much Like, am I pretty? Am I fun, boy? I hate that I give you power over that kind of stuff 'Cause always one step forward and three steps back I'm the love of your life until I make you mad It's one step forward and three steps back Do you love me, want me, hate me? Boy, I don't understand No, I don't understand And maybe in some masochistic way I kinda find it all exciting Like, which lover will I get today? Will you walk me to the door or send me home cryin'? It's always one step forward and three steps back I'm the love of your life until I make you mad It's always one step forward and three steps back Do you love me, want me, hate me? Boy, I don't understand Oh I dont understand O, it's back and forth, did I say something wrong? It's back and forth, goin' over everything I said It's back and forth, did I do something wrong? It's back and forth, maybe this is all your fault Cause It's one step forward and three steps back I'm the love of your life until I make you mad It's always one step forward and three steps back Do you love me, want me, hate me? Boy, I don't understand O It's one step forward and three steps back I'm the love of your life until I make you mad It's always one step forward and three steps back Do you love me, want me, hate me? Boy, I don't understand Oh I dont understand No i dont understand

[@annavocado]

I was scared listening to it bc i knew it would be so perfect that it would make me emotional and I WAS RIGHT

[@intan421]

oh myy 😭💔💔
