Olivia Rodrigo

Big Olivia fan, Kathleen Hanna.

I think that song is the thesis statement of the album, You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So In Love.

I remember making that song and feeling so excited, like, okay, I know what I'm trying to say with this thing.

I love that song so much.

It makes me emotional to listen to it now.

All the pretty girls in the foreground of my mind

I don't know how it started.

I was on my couch and I played the chords and wrote the verse lyrics and thought that that was really interesting and brought it to Dan and we finished it together.

And yeah, it just means so much to me.

I think...

I think that that was a realization that I had and you can only have when you're like in like a real like big girl relationship.

I think that for so long, when I was younger, I was always like reaching for something.

I was like, oh, if I have this, then I'll be happier.

If I have this thing in my, even in my career, I'll be happier.

If I like have this guy and he loves me the way I always thought he would love me, like I'll feel better about myself.

Yeah.

you know, slowly throughout the course of my life and this relationship that I'm talking about, I kind of just realized that the issues that you have aren't just going to be solved by some other person.

Like something can distract you, but like it... They're your issues.

Yeah, they're your issues.

I also even think that falling in love actually makes those issues even clearer to you.
