Sour [Geffen, 2021]
This manifestly competent 18-year-old actress has a two-boyfriend romantic history dating back to 2018 that pop aesthetes who avoid the Disney channel can just Google--both, unsurprisingly, with actors a year or two older than she is. Also unsurprisingly, she's gorgeous. But that's never stopped women from worrying that their bodies aren't "perfect," which along with other inevitable insecurities was enough to fuel an exquisite teen-breakup concept album produced by 38-year-old helper bunny Daniel Nigro. Again and again dainty melodies meet big drums and are only stronger for it as every simple word comes clear. She doesn't drink yet but knows how he likes his coffee and let's bet her own; she says "fuck" and "bullshit," the latter to modify "eternal love." Though he did the driving let's also bet he gave her some of the lessons that flowered into her first megahit even if she still can't really, in everybody's favorite trope, parallel park. But when he transfers his attentions to "someone more exciting," it's Olivia's jokes he's telling, Olivia's Billy Joel he's playing. And for a transcendent finale she leaves her own pain behind and sends her very best to an abused boy she knew when they were small and a middle school friend with parents who "hated who she loved." A

这位18岁超群绝伦的女演员Olivia Rodrigo曾有两段可追溯到2018年的恋情,使原本并非迪士尼的受众也想谷歌搜索她——毫无疑问,两位男演员都比她年长一两岁。不出意料,她外表靓丽。但这并不能阻止女生陷入颜值焦虑,外加不可避免的不安全感,这足以制成一张精致的青少年分手的概念专辑,由38岁的兔子助手Daniel Nigro制作。始而复终的精巧旋律在清晰的吐字下与大鼓碰撞而愈发激烈。她不喝饮料,但知道前任有多爱咖啡,我猜她是这样的。她说“fuck”和“bullshit”,后者用来修饰前任口中的“eternal love”(永恒的爱)。虽然是他在开车,但让我们大胆假设,他也给了她一些经验教训,这些都成为她第一首大热单的创作素材(“driver‘s license”),尽管她还是没学会开车。用一句好玩的话说,叫平行泊车。但当他把注意力转移到 "someone more exciting,"上时,他讲着Olivia说过的笑话,唱着Olivia教过的Billy Joel的歌。在绝对封神的专辑收尾曲(“hope ur ok中,她将自身的痛苦抛在身后,向童年那会认识的一个受家暴虐待的男孩和在中学期间认识的一位与父母不和的男孩送出最好的祝愿。A
