ego crush, by the way, I interpret as crushing someone's ego, that is, seriously lowering their self confidence Olivia likes to switch around tenses in popular phrases like that- she did it in her song good 4 u as well in the bridge: maybe I'm too emotional//but your apathy's like a wound in salt-Salt in a wound is the phrase she means

[@CarissaJenkins]

yessssssssss

[@thatweirdbwah_]

Woah

[@randomMxx]

am I the only one who thinks the “that I’ll die before I drink” needs to be spoke about more COS I FELT THAT💀💀

[@anne-pe2ox]

[@ickymani]

@@anne-pe2ox it’s saying that she’d kill herself before she even turns the age to be able to legally drink

He was trying to say something when he heard that then he went "wow".

[@TheSKRStudios]

best song on the album no cap

[@juhos30000]

Gotta give it to her. I've never heard her music, its really well sung and written. Im glad to see new actually good songwriters popping out!

[@larissa1770]

She wasn’t born in the 90s but she said as a child her parents would take her to concerts like the weezers! So I can see how she is inspired by that era.

[@youredelicious9945]

Not the weezers lmfao their name is Weezer and that was her first concert thats why she likes alternative rock so much also her.producer and cowriter Dan denigro is the guitarrist of an indie rock band called taller as lions

[@marlene2805]

also the vibe I got was early 2000’s? Bc she’s my age/we’re both born in 2003, so that’s always what it’s reminded me of

[@RyanBedlack]

“The Weezers”? Bruh

[@larissa1770]

@@RyanBedlack yeah weezer. Big whoop lol

[@wac109]

How funny my brother In law called them the weezer's also lmao

[@nataliaclemente4028]

I wish I had a sharp ear as you do to identify the chords and all😭

[@aliceskordeman5483]

like “I feel like no one likes me and I hate the way i’m perceived” I have never heard a more accurate description off that feeling.

[@grandaudi3587]

I thought I was the only one feeling Nirvana Vibes..love your reactions

[@vanessax6092]

Olivia is a big fan of Nirvana and Kurt, so that does make sense

[@grandaudi3587]

@@vanessax6092 glad she does..:)

[@anne-pe2ox]

she's perfect ughhh

[@jredwood16]

I thought of Veruca Salt or Hole. Similar wheelhouses.

[@monetwallace7755]

Nope that was the first thing that came to mind

[@joycezoe8172]

one of my favs it’s honestly so relatable

[@mehna3469]

yay! so glad these are up now :)

[@aliceskordeman5483]

I love how the brutality honesty makes the song so brutally relatable

[@hollycox8187]

the riff in this is actually very simiilar to that in elvis costello's pump it up

[@archive6111]

A ego crush is I think a another way of saying you’re self esteem is crashing down

[@JacobRestituto]

ah ok!

[@qwertyuiopz123]

Im getting MAJOR veruca salt - seether sounds from this

[@JW-uo1yg]

I get Veruca Salt vibes from this song. Love it ❤

[@CartwrightFour]

Guitar riff was borrowed from Elvis Costello’s “Pump it Up”.

[@sound5700]

I hear opening guitar of Rob Zombie's Dragula. Yeah Olivia!

[@hannahmatey2644]

Yaaaaayyy🏃🏾‍♀️

[@soumyadeepchandra4271]

Has Nirvana's you know you are right written all over it.

[@mobslayer3168]

Ok I really like this song but I think the end would sound a little better personally If after the little ballad it had the guitar come back in and then after one progression it stopped

[@superzroze]

that’s what i thought too!

[@kennedyf526]

you should react to the lovejoy ep, “are you alright” :))

[@Shoegazeandhiphop]

HE SAID NIRVANA VIBES ive been saying that ITS FRICKING TRUE

[@JacobRestituto]

😲

[@nic.colaco]

yeaahh!!

🔥

[@nicholashylton6857]

Nirvana... Just a bit. But that guitar riff is definitely from Elvis Costello's "Pump It Up.".

God green day out here

[@brett73317]

Lol first words “I’m pumped”?…. Would you say you would “pump it up? ;)”

[@secretktrash1953]

Please react to maneskin the winners of Eurovision.

[@elranchosteve3269]

This song gave me Courtney Barnett vibes

[@davidvees]

Nivana?… no, … ELASTICA!!!

[@veraniahinojosa2963]

Bikini kill vibes tbh

[@ncgirl122]

How is “a musician” critiquing this and not pointing out it’s the same riff as Costello’s “Pump it Up”? Im not knocking it- it’s catchy as hell and he doesn’t have a problem with it so why should we- but it’s the first thing I noticed. Also, you can tell she was probably exposed to some Bikini Kill growing up. Folks saying this doesn’t have a 90s vibe weren’t listening to the underground stuff back then

[@J_Bollich]

This song isn’t as bad as good 4 u which is terrible

[@JacobRestituto]

appreciate your opinion

[@heelthere7833]

This only gives me suicidal tendencies vibes

[@laurenanderson7330]

It’s STOLEN from Elvis Costello. How is no one hearing this?!

[@JacobRestituto]

😳

[@caitlinnicole6152]

Good 4 U is misery business from Paramore

[@willsss2]

I like it still
