"I realized all my favorite romantic love songs were beautiful because they had a tinge of fear or yearning in them. It was a creative challenge to write the album from a joyful place, but I still managed to make sad love songs about the obsession and anxiety of romance."
"The first track is smooth, trippy soft rock about the spirituality of finding the man of your dreams, exploring concepts such as kismet and feminine intuition while singing in a more laidback and mature voice."
"The third track is about realizing that love won't fix you and finds Rodrigo at her most experimental, with an orchestral ending. You're getting to the core of all of your issues: how you feel about yourself, your insecurities, what makes you joyful."
Olivia Rodrigo is nearing completion of a new album, having finished approximately 70% of recording with two to three songs remaining. The project features a London-influenced sound developed during her time recording in the city and draws from her personal experiences there. The album explores romantic themes from a joyful perspective while maintaining sad love songs that capture obsession and anxiety. Rodrigo explained that her favorite romantic songs contain elements of fear or yearning, which she incorporated into her work. The three tracks previewed include soft rock exploring spiritual connection, a dreamy song about relationship withdrawal inspired by Sex and the City, and an experimental orchestral piece about love's limitations and personal growth.
