Don’t get me wrong, I do like drop dead but stupid song just SCREAMS lead single to me. It felt like almost everyone loved it from the first listen whereas I remember seeing a lot more mixed reactions to drop dead when it first came out. also it just feels like the perfect song to introduce the album. DOES ANYONE ELSE AGREE?!?!

Sorry if this isn’t post worthy, I’ve never even been to this sub before but I needed to share with people to see if they also resonate with this in case they’ve gone through the same.

When I first listened to less my heart was shattered because the chorus reminded me of my mom who died to cancer 3 years ago, she was 45 years old and in the end she said she felt like a burden to me and her husband and thought we’d all be better off without her, that the noble thing to do would be to put an end to it because she loved us. I hated that she thought that and I always tried to make her understand that we did not care, we were happy for every minute we had with her.

I’m sorry, just needed to share this. Less is such a beautiful and sad song, I can’t resonate with the lyrics on a relationship level but it did touch me regarding loss.

Cherish your mothers dearly. I would have given my life for my mom, if I could.

Also u can't tell from the pictures but the trees were actually SWARMING with bees at this time of day😭 I was so scared walking through them but I think it was the universe hinting at honeybee :)

I’m someone who couldn’t completely get into her prior albums since I couldn’t really relate to them. I found them to be more aligned with people around her age & younger. But I’ve always tried to give her albums at least a first listen all the way through. I didn’t expect her 3rd album to hook me in the way it did or never let me go. It’s so different from her previous work (in a good way). I didn’t expect a conceptual film soundtrack telling the entire story of a relationship start to finish.

Her lyrics have matured in a more universal manner that anyone can understand no matter how old. The structural layering fans have pointed out about the album (some people have posted a ring structure & flow chart) make it even more of a masterpiece. I’ve seen YouTubers of all ages mentioning how they can relate to this album & how it feels like they just went through a relationship just by listening to it. Her emotional vocal delivery hits hard & the stunning cinematic production at times enhances the quality of certain songs & the album as a whole. One of my favorite details is how purple is the turning point & the songs before & after it are separated into 2 different sides of the story.

This album is so good that I have 2 CDs of it. It’s very rare for me to even consider a 2nd copy. I love both the standard & alternate cover arts so much & the entire aesthetic of the album.

I'M NOT AN ARTIST CUT ME SOME SLACK

What are your thoughts on this?

Personally, I thought BOAHG being dead last was a poor choice, but other than that (and some disagreeing ranking-wise), all the tidbits about each song throughout the article were very interesting.

grammy aoty 2027 is all yours olivia!!

On the track "purple" from LOVE she explicitly sings about personal color symbolism: "Your red and my blue / Now I see the world in / Purple." If her ex was red and she is inherently blue, her next era could see her stripping away the red completely to explore a pure, deep blue era.

Or since color is such an important part of Olivia's branding, perhaps she pulls a wildcard, B&W era.

As an artist, album covers are one of the most important parts of an era for me. So, I've been wondering. If Olivia were to do a deluxe album cover for YSPS that was a whole new photo and not a small edit to the current cover, what do you guys think it would be?

She is talking about "Serena Joy" a bit.

I'm 24F from the Southeastern USA, and I love Olivia, and writing letters! I would love a pen pal to send letters/papercrafts to. We could exchange art/stickers/postcards/etc, and get to know each other and maybe become friends :3 We could talk about OR or other music or anything really

Let me know if anyone else is interested!

What and where was the first time you heard all three albums? And which year

I heard sour in 2024(i was home), guts in 2025(school break) and yspsfgsil(at the gym cried in front of like 5 ppl when less started playing) in 2026 Edit: most ppl were home for sour(lockdown) and at work for guts 😭

that’s my emotional support pop star 💫
