Olivia Rodrigo

It's so wild.

And, like, if I were to, like, be an outsider and, like, watch that happen to someone, you know, be like, oh, my God.

Like, so—I think I couldn't—I didn't realize it at the time.

But—so I have, like, a lot of compassion for myself, even after the aftermath of Sour.

Like, that was so much pressure.

Like, how—it was so insane.

And just, like—

people on the internet and like all this criticism.

When you're 19, you don't know who you are in general.

You don't know who your real friends are.

You don't know who you want to date.

You don't know what like you really want to be doing with your life in a real concrete sense.

And so it's just, it was a lot.

And looking back, I'm so proud of that record.

I think putting it out, I felt a little like, oh God, it's like, I'm never going to make anything like as big and as good as Sour and blah, blah, blah, blah.

But like looking back, I'm so proud of so many of those songs.

Like I think like All American Bitch is like my favorite song I've ever written.

And I think like Bad Idea, I remember like thinking Bad Idea right at the time.

I was like, oh, it's too weird.

And I'm like, I love that song so much now.
