#i am betting itll get a grammy nom and would not be mad at all if it won

my first reactions to guts!!

i did this with unreal unearth and had a lot of fun so here are all my thoughts on my first listen to guts! :)

all-american bitch: OH MY GOSH I LOVE THIS??? that was just so much fun. i love how it started & ended softly but the middle is just pure loud guitar chaos. SUCH a good opener oh my gosh.

THE TRANSITION BETWEEN ALL-AMERICAN BITCH AND BAD IDEA RIGHT. INCREDIBLE 10/10.

bad idea right?: already heard it of course, but i have loved this song since the first listen and i do not understand why people don't!! some lyrics are a bit corny for sure but it's so catchy and fun.

vampire: again, heard it before, but i really like this song!! it's a bit overplayed now which takes away some of that but i still really enjoy it and have since i first heard it. her vocals are so improved.

lacy: i claimed this the second the tracklist was released and i made the right choice. this song is so beautiful. the quiet parts are so sweet and pretty but when it builds and gets louder i lowkey almost teared up?? such a good one.

ballad of a homeschooled girl: i was a bit anxious going into this bc the title feels corny to me but WOW i LOVE it!! incredibly relatable, and MAN i am obssessed with olivia transitioning into more rock/pop music. such a banger. the 'every guy i like is gay' line made me snort laughing

making the bed: oh my goshhh that was so lovely and beautiful and sad...she needs to stop writing songs about me. not much else to say. great song she never misses.

logical: this definitely isn't my fav but i enjoyed it!! i love how it gets louder in the chorus, and again her voice is incredible. i do think the '2 + 2 = 5' line is kind of corny sjfdsk but the rest of it is good!

get him back!: also not a fav but a bop fs! extremely catchy and fun, but the lyric 'i am my father's daughter so maybe i could fix him' made my jaw drop. like. okay way to call me out girly. the outro is eh but overall good song!

love is embarassing: decent song! i don't have much to say, just a fun catchy one, but i do think it's too short and ended kind of abruptly. ah well still good

the grudge: bc of the last 3 i was gonna say the latter half of this album is weaker but this just proved me WRONG. WOW this is a great song. i will never shut up about how amazing olivia's voice is, like her belting?? insane?? i love this one a lot.

pretty isn't pretty: as a wise songwriter that people need to stop pitting against olivia once said, 'shes insane, she wrote a song about me'. OUCH. like yes i will eat up any song about teenage girl insecurities but this one. this does it for me man. so good.

teenage dream: a PERFECT closer to this incredible album. 'it gets better but what if i don't' is such a real lyric. also obsessed with the brutal parallel to 'where's my fucking teenage dream?' because like. the teenage dream doesn't really exist bc of all of these burdens that this album encapsulates so well. such a great song.

i expected this album to be good but it has exceeded all of my expectations. it has 0 skips! even the songs i don't love are still so good! olivia's transition into more rock/punk music is something i 100% support and adore. i think it is better than sour by MILES and am so excited to see how olivia continues to grow. <3
