The Daily · Popcast: Olivia Rodrigo Tried Writing Love Songs. Then Life Got Messy. · 31 May 2026 podcast

It's like, what does, what is like burning in me to say right now?

Um, I think it just like all comes from the heart and I think it's not super like calculated in that way.

And so, um, so they sort of aggregated in a way like you were writing songs and then you took a step back and said, huh, it is kind of like boom, boom, boom.

Yeah, exactly.

But I'm really happy with the way it turned out.

And I think,

Dan and I, like, sort of, like, after writing breakup songs and stuff, we, like, had the fun challenge of going back and, like, actually tweaking some of the love songs that were on the record and making them a little more honest and more sad and creepy.

Like, the song Purple was originally a love song.

It's, like, six songs and it's purple and it's, like, that's when, like, the doubt creeps in and then the cure.

It's, like, you flip the record and it's the cure and it's sort of, like, the...

unraveling as we say of, of, um, this narrative.

And, uh, so yeah, I was really happy with the way that it turned out and sort of, sort of after the fact, we've already written like the first, like maybe six songs of the record and writing the more like sad sort of decomposed, um, uh, songs on the record.

We, we kind of like, uh, post-mortem kind of went in and changed things and, and sort of made it a whole body of work rather than, um, you know, like little moments.

Is there a specific line or stanza in one of the first songs that you remember being like, okay, I really need to reframe this.

I really need to deepen this.

Is there something that sticks in your mind?

Yeah.

I mean, like the Honey Bee lyric, like having Honey Bee, Honey Bee is one of my favorite songs on the record.

And then having it also tying it back into the last song, I think was really nice for me to just sort of made it feel more like, I don't think that it's a...

It's not a concept album.
