- At some point I might have to look up a translation of the lyrics here. I’m a little curious. ↩
- May or may not occasionally just crank the volume and sing along to this at the top of my voice. ↩
- Far and away my favorite new song this month. I have no idea why, but this one hits me right in the heartstrings. ↩
- This whole album has big “closeted in the Midwest” energy. Not sure if that’s a good thing or a bad thing. ↩
- Listen, sometimes you just need some rap that you absolutely can’t understand, okay? ↩
- Some of the same sounds as “Bury A Friend,” which unfortunately is less effective here, because, y’know, Billie Eilish is already Billie Eilish, and not pioneering this whole new sound this time around. ↩
- A lot of “musical theater” vibes to this one – it’s the key changes. ↩
- Somehow I stumbled across a Tiktok where Oh teased this song, and I liked it enough from that that I just threw a reminder in Things, “in two weeks remind me to see if this song is out.” It was! ↩
- There’s a sound in here, I think somewhere around 1:20, that reminded me so intensely of Majik that I wound up adding Friends to the list. Man, I miss Majik. ↩
