thank you so much girls, the video is certainly AMAZING and I am very happy to see you supporting Olivia's work, she is a great songwriter. Kisses from Brazil 🇧🇷
Olivia has said that "hope ur ok" is the closer because she wanted to acknowledge that despite the heartbreak shes experienced, many lgbtq+ people she grew up with never got to experience any of the good parts of young love and she wanted to reach out to them. It's really sweet. Especially bookended by brutal, since she addresses the hardships of gen-z's youth in both songs.
@@chungleanne2690 yes, i took it to mean she was implying that he as abused because he was gay ("his parents cared more about the bible than being good to their own child")
It’s quite possibly my favorite Olivia bridge (aside from drivers license obvi lol) because the way the whole thing flows and the way she delivers each lyric and that piano, that piano is INSANEEEEE
I swear the bridge in jealousy jealousy is gonna be an absolute bop at concerts. It was pretty much made to be screamed by fans and the "happier, prettier, jealousy, jealousy" line is gonna be amazing.

The easter egg was from the pr package she sent out that has Sweet and Sour patches on it.
or it could be because being "sour" means being jealous, well, in a chinese perspective atleast lol. "drinking vinegar" means being jealous hence "sour" and almost all the songs have a lyrics talking about how pretty the new girl is. maybe its just me lol

Emily is the funniest person ever when olivia said “wish you would’ve thought this through before I went and fell in love with you” and Emily goes “I agree josh you should’ve thought about this” 😂
So.. at the Britz awards she gave everyone LETTERS with “hope ur ok” written on it Her butterfly wings represent everyone that helped her grow (like from a caterpillar to a butterfly) And the “hope ur ok” letters are for the holes in her butterfly wings.. the holes being the people who weren’t/aren’t doing that well Got me f’ed up
also I saw a comment somewhere on another reaction video about how butterflies can't fly if their wings are damaged and I thought that was really powerful too
almost 2 years late, but i think "hope ur ok" was the closer for the album because she's essentially trying to say that even though she's going through emotional heartbreak, there are people with other situations that are way worse than hers. the scale of emotional endurance that they had to go through would be 10x harder to do than Olivia's situation. it really humanises her and adds relatability to her experience too. she's saying that she will be ok herself, but she hopes for the same to those around her.
Her whole album is practically just a therapy session, starting off with a breakdown, moving on to her explaining her relationship, then ending with the realization that she’s not ok and she hopes that her past relationships even though they where friends might not be ok too.
Yes and sometimes people say it’s a gay song but just like you said it’s about two people who were treated badly I am one of the biggest Olivia rodrigo fan 💜💜💜and by the way his name is Joshua basset
i love olivia and this album so much, she just proved that she’s here to fucking stay, she's truly amazing and she has a brilliant future ahead her, can't wait to see that as well... now let's all pray that the next reaction will be 1989 taylor's version like the rumors that are going on around..................
“Enough For You” is the only song on the album she wrote completely on her own which just makes it so much more vulnerable. And her producer was hesitant to put “Brutal” on the album so it was a last minute addition but pretty much everyone loves it!
@@Laurica-lb6nv I'm curious....where did you read that she only wrote the chorus? Because every thing I've read so far says she wrote the chorus and verses for Happier.
I feel like Olivia has very unique lyrics. Like she pulls inspiration from other artists and that’s just a fact. But the way the she mixes those themes and ways of singing makes her as an individual singer/songwriter very good.
Ok but didn’t anyone notice in deja vu when she says “we kinda do sound the same” there’s a harmony which is indicating two voices. Olivia’s voice and the other girl’s voice. Ofcourse they’re both Olivia but I think it was added to accommodate that line about how they sounds the same. I thought it was interesting
timestamp 5:05 - brutal 14:45 - traitor 22:19 - 1 step forward, 3 steps back 30:11 - deja vu 35:11 - good 4 u 44:29 - enough for you 50:38 - happier 54:43 - jealousy, jealousy 59:09 - favorite crime 1:02:16 - hope ur ok
Olivia Rodrigo is the artist I wish I had at that age 20+ years ago. Grateful that teens nowadays have an artist like her. Just gonna go sit in my little corner and listen to Sour on repeat so I can try and process all that angst again.
I’m glad I have Sour at 40 as it is wonderful music for these times. It is timeless music, but it is nice to hear with all these years of experiences as an adult just as many teens are hearing Sour now.
everytime y'all say 'that's a fucked up lyric' i could not stop laughing lol i love how deep you guys got into each song, this may be my favorite reaction to her album. i'm glad to see the love for 1 step forward, 3 step backs, unfortunately a lot of people underrate it so much! i think its brilliant the way she took such an amazing song already and made it her own somehow, and still made it sound good.
The way neither of them got that "hope ur okay" was about homophobia made me wonder how different it is where they live...as a queer American this song got me right from the beginning and it means so much to me
Yeah I’m also a queer American and I picked up on it too. One of my good friends is Australian and we actually talked about this. She said how it’s not that being queer isn’t accepted, it just that it’s not as talked about there. The conversation about being queer is growing to become more prominent in America and the topic isn’t as widely talked about there
@@chungleanne2690 Well because of the line "His parents cared more about the bible Than being good to their child" I think that while yes it is about abuse, it's about being abused specifically because of being LGBT.
@@KittyCat-co8fs Olivia interpolated the melody of New Year's Day in the song, that's why Taylor and Jack are credited as writers! They didn't directly help in writing the song
@@KittyCat-co8fs Taylor didn't write the lyrics of the song. Olivia wrote the lyrics. Olivia interpolated the melody of New Year's Day into 1 Step Forward - that's why Taylor and Jack get credit too...solely for the melody - NOT the lyrics. Olivia did change up the melody too
This is my favorite reaction to this album so far. Lots of attention to the lyrical excellence and some pretty darn good insights regarding song construction and production as well. And your interaction with each other is the kind you only have with a really good friend ... it's a real conversation, not a performance. Well done!
I get the fact that Olivia will be looked at through the Taylor lenses, but can we give Olivia the props for coming out with this album at 18 years old. Cmon. Let’s look at Olivia as Olivia, not only Taylor’s stan.
I don't feel like we took away any credit from Olivia when talking or comparing her to Taylor. She has sought inspiration from Taylor and many other artist and we just discussed that, I think its cool to see that!
@@chatsandreacts I didn’t say anything about “taking away the credit” I was simply saying how we should look at her achievement at 18 years old and just enjoy the music ☺️ I’m a HUGE Swiftie myself, and of course I see that Olivia was heavily inspired by Taylor’s art of songwriting, but again, she’s her own person, creating things from her own experiences. She deserves all the hype she gets, just for being herself 💗
@@martynacysia783 do you think she got all hype by her self from the beginning ? literally her listener are full with swifties and if they say Taylor inspired her than there's nothing wrong
Your conversation over "1 step forward 3 steps back" was so impressive , deep, structured, comparative and comprehensive that it made me freaking reconsider aspects of my own dissertation! This has nothing to do with what I am writing, but the way you addressed the song was EPIC. You both are magnificent. You don't just say "wow, damn, I love this, it hits home, etc." You actually dive in, pick something and run with it. I love you both! Thanks for the great video!
28:14 ok but just imagine: it's Olivia's concert and she performs this song but instead of the second verse starting, Taylor comes out on the stage and continues singing New year's day and they finish the song doing a duet. That would be awesome
She has at least 5 Grammy nominations on lock. Pop Vocal Album, Pop Solo, BNA, ROTY, SOTY. AOTY is within reach depending on how well the full set holds up for the rest of the year. I would be SHOCKED if she misses any of the first five though.
i love "hope ur ok" because not only does it discuss homophobia/queer youth (which i always appreciate in a song being as i have been out since i was 11) but when she says "i hope you know how proud i am you were created with the courage to unlearn all of their hatred" shes saying "you're not your parents, just because they believe something doesn't make YOU a bad person" and that is a message i, as well as many other people I'm sure, definitely need from time to time. When i hear the second verse talking about olivia's middle school friend and how her parents "hated who she loved" I absolutely lose it cause even tho I wasn't alone, my parents were home a lot, their gay jokes/bigotry made me feel so freaking isolated, to the point where i didn't come out till i was 18 (and that was on accident lmao) that song really speaks to me on multiple levels.
as somebody who's also out (not to parents LMAOO but to my friends), this is my fave song from sour bc of that reason. also bc it's j genuinely a great song, but its just so important. the message is so important. im sure there's some closeted kid out there who feels far less alone bc of this song which is epic bc nobody deserves to feel alone esp in their sexuality.
The part where you guys pointed out her ending brutal with “Don’t know where to start” while it’s the first track on the album was the same reaction I got when I first heard the song because I’ve adapted the way you two analyze songs😅 I watched tons of reactions where I waited for them to point it out, but non of them did until you two. So the fact that we can actually share the same brain cells means a lot to me!!!
@@chatsandreacts This just made me happier huhu but it's true though. Not everyone pays attention to the arrangements of songs in an album. I admit that before, I didn't care much about the sequence until you two (as well as your friends in the background) came into my life! I'm grateful for that because it really gives a new perspective to an album which makes us love them more.
FUN FACT olivia actually didn't technically sample new year's day, it was interpolated in 1step forward 3 steps back which means that's it's olivia playing the piano on the track to the same melody of new year's day but it's tweaked a bit THIS MEANS that she's not using the sample directly from the rep album (which would give money and credits to taylor's old label) but instead it gives credit directly to taylor since she hasn't re-recorded rep yet! what a fucking power move by olivia
NO YOU GUYS DON'T UNDERSTAND THIS IS MY COMFORT CHANNEL AND Y'ALL ARE MY FAVE TH-camRS AND I DIDN'T EXPECT YOU'D REACT TO THIS ALBUM AND IT'S AN HOUR LONG THIS MAKES ME SO HAPPY AAAAAAAHH
I see "favorite crime" as the closing chapter of the relationship and the heartbreak that came with it and then "hope ur ok" as her showcasing a different side of her songwriting abilities. It reminds me of what Taylor did with folklore and evermore in a way because those albums were more storytelling based with Taylor using her own experiences as an influence for writing about situations separate from her own. I feel like "hope ur ok" is the perfect album closer because it shows her depth as a songwriter and is kind of an indicator of what she's capable of. Her talent goes beyond writing songs about only heartbreak and I feel like this was the perfect way to give people a taste of that. SO ecstatic that you guys made a reaction video to this! Love this channel sm 💗
also if you listen to the end of "hope ur ok" it sounds like a car ,and that could be connected to drivers license.i also think it could be saying at the end of the song ,to the person the songs are about that she hopes they're ok too . but the song also seems like it's to the lgbtq+ youth.
underrated line in jealousy, jealousy: when she says “beauty is not what i lack” she’s recognizing that she is the beauty standard and she’s not trying to hide that and i’ve never seen someone do that before
i don't think that she's saying/recognizing that she is the beauty standard, it's more like she's saying that someone's else's beauty doesn't take away her own, but "it feels like that"
i didn't know you existed until today but i'm fucking with this energy you guys have, the huge taylor swift knowledge and the geeking out about it while also celebrating Olivia and her skill and talent is just amazing, she deserves all the love you gave her. it's amazing how you analyzed the lyrics for a (mostly) first time listen. i just love it, i'm off to binge your other videos at 12:30am lol
I love that they recorded this reaction like this. It’s so cool to watch people hear songs for the first time. Also, knowing what’s coming and just waiting like, “Oh if you like that just wait like twenty seconds, it gets even better.”
She said it’s called sour because it’s about the souring of a romantic relationship and also your relationship with yourself. She said growing up she was so confident in herself and then after that first heartbreak, she suddenly had all these doubts and questioned her self-worth. That first kind of rejection is one of the most unpleasant shocks of adulthood - that someone who knew you so intimately could revert back to being a complete stranger. And so she said a lot of self-doubt crept in and she felt her relationship with herself souring. She also said she wanted to play on the idea that she’s dealing with emotions that girls are usually kinda looked down upon for feeling. Like jealousy, spite, rage. We are made to feel like it’s childish and cringey to feel as intensely as we do if a guy has cheated or something, and are made fun of for it. She’s embracing those emotions and the fact that she’s sour unapologetically💞💞
So “hope ur ok” and the “courage to unlearn all of their hatred” I feel had to do with homophobic parents. Because earlier she says “her parents hated who she loved”
it definitely can be. especially at the end where she just uses "you" and no gendered pronouns. she's trying to send this as a general message to her audience, and she has a lot of lgbtq+ fans, so it feels really nice
I love how you guys are being so insightful with every song and pay attention to the lyrics, production, vocals, backing vocals, layering, harmonies of songs.
THE WAY SHE SAID "there is actually someone out there that thinks ur enough" at the 2nd verse of enough for you and the way Olivia writes at the end of the song "feel sorry for yourself, cause someday I'll be everything to somebody else" IS CRAZY HER MIND WORKS
Olivia made me appreciate music and the reason why I listen to Taylor swift is because of her! she made me look at music with a new perspective and now I do listen to lyrics carefully and interpret my thoughts and try to find what it means. I love her.
have you guys thought about reacting to Conan gray? he’s another young artist that regards Taylor as a big influence on him, he and Olivia are buddies too. He’s got a bunch of stuff out though.
What I love about this is the fact that her songs kind of open you up and lower your guard then invade with the truth, although it seems, pun intended, brutal, I think it works pretty well, and people love it because it's so relatable
you guys cut the part in jealousy, jealousy when she says “you go out every night in your daddys new car yeah you’re living the life....etc” part and that was my favorite part of the song i was hoping to get your inputtt :(
Hi! The theory for the outro in "hope ur ok" is actually that she's turning the car engine off. The connection is that in "drivers licence" (which is her debut song that started it all) starts with the car engine turning on.
Absolutely superior react!!!! What I love about the closer is that Olivia seems to contextualize her pain surrounding her first real heartbreak. "Nothing's forever/nothing's as good as it seems" it seems like she's saying "I've been in pain, but people I love have been in pain too, and they survived." She's not saying that her breakup isn't a big deal, but rather that she knows she's resilient (butterfly wings) like her friends.
I think she is honored actually. Imagine being 18 with your first work and have all that instant sucess, and be compared to superstar. I mean what they’re doing in this video is not comparing to drag, is more to see better how her level of writing songs is already so superior lol And of course she is Olivia, nobody is saying she is the new taylor or whatever because she already showed with this album her unique work🤗
I love how you guys are constantly talking over each other but it's in a way that finishes each others sentences/thoughts and for some reason I find it really funny but fun to listen to. Both of you are really pretty too!
I absolutely loved the you you analyzed the entire album: lyrics’ meaning, similarities between her music and others, the various emotions she expresses and most - SUPPORT AND APPRECIATION!! I think it’s important to encourage her to keep up with the good work because she has really great chances of winning anything and everything!!! :) Also, adore that you two are a perfect match ❤️
I’m the biggest swiftie and the biggest livie (that’s what olivia’s fandom called) and I love your guys’ channel and literally when sour dropped I kinda hoped you guys would react so this is actually so cool omg
@@jaylenelizabeth9340 HELP- that was a fandom name made by a fan and is like a continuous joke in the fandom but Olivia picked out the name livies on her own lol
@@jaylenelizabeth9340 it IS actually named livies. Rodrighoes is just a joke we use. im not even making this up I’m in the fandom we’re literally called livies. Olivia picked it out on her own. It’s just like swifties and swiffers. Swiffers is used when they joke around but swifties is their fandom name lol
Omg that’s why i felt like “i know u get deja vu” sounded similar to “i don’t wanna keep secrets just to keep you” and the whole bridge of deja vu just screams cruel summer vibes
Does anyone else think that “And when the clouds are ironed out And the monsters creep into your house And every door is hard to close” sounds like the out of the woods bridge ?
I was literally watching another reaction to this today and was thinking how cool it would be if you guys posted a reaction to it! You guys are one of my favorite reactors so this made my day!
Being straight out of a toxic relationship, this whole album i related to, every song was accurate. I sobbed my eyes out with these songs and felt understood. (Especially with Traitor because the girl he "cheated" on me with, he took 3 days date her)
i interpreted hope ur ok as the closer like the whole album she focused on this boy and how he made her feel but then as she moved on and grew, she realized that her energy and love can be given to ppl that need and deserve it more
Yes! Like if those people can get through what they went through and come out on the other side (are ok) then she can get through the heartbreak. Like the metaphor of the letters addressed (all of the verses) to these people are being used to patch up her butterfly wings because she’s taking solace in their strength.
little fun fact, in music theory what olivia does on deja vu with the harmonies is called ‘text painting’/word painting’. it means that the lyrics reflect the music. like when a melody goes lower when the lyrics mention the word down and vice versa. there’s tons of cool examples and it’s always a good sign when producers and writers knowingly incorporate that 🥰
There are three call backs of the lyrics reflected in DejaVu. The first two are obvious, the laugh “Ha-ha-ha-ha…”, and singing in “harmony.” The third one is commonly missed: “She probably tells you she loves you between the chorus and the verse.” It’s a bit masked by the music but Olivia then whispers “I love you” right between the verse and chorus.
you hit on a lot of the moments where I feel like she specifically references/is inspired by a TS song, but i think "hope ur ok" is SO seven!! a childhood friend who was abused, they've lost touch, she still feels love for them, and the timelessness and eternity of that feeling and moment. It's kind of magical to try and think about the fact that she wrote this album post folklore and evermore so stuff like favorite crime (no body no crime maybe?), hope ur ok (seven), good 4 u (mr perfectly fine) etc.
I love this entire album. Each song is its own masterpiece and it forced me to re-evaluatey first love who I never realized was so toxic and manipulative towards me. I put him on such a peddlestool I never saw it, even 6 years after the relationship died.
“I love an angry song” ive never felt more seen

hope ur ok , isn't about josh or any of her lovers , it's Abt people she knew and how she hopes they're ok because of how there treated
Yes and sometimes people say it’s a gay song but just like you said it’s about two people who were treated badly I am one of the biggest Olivia rodrigo fan 💜💜💜and by the way his name is Joshua basset
i love olivia and this album so much, she just proved that she’s here to fucking stay, she's truly amazing and she has a brilliant future ahead her, can't wait to see that as well... now let's all pray that the next reaction will be 1989 taylor's version like the rumors that are going on around..................
“Miley had to do what Miley had to do... She had to wear that fucking golden g string” preach it sis
periodt.
My favorite Miley’s song. I cry.
Timestamp?
“Enough For You” is the only song on the album she wrote completely on her own which just makes it so much more vulnerable. And her producer was hesitant to put “Brutal” on the album so it was a last minute addition but pretty much everyone loves it!
She also wrote happier alone
happier too was written all by her, it's actually one of her unreleased songs that she posted on ig before.
she also wrote 1 step forward, 3 steps back by herself as dan wasn’t credited as one of the writers.
@@trouvaille1558 she wrote the chorus alone yes but not the verses
@@Laurica-lb6nv I'm curious....where did you read that she only wrote the chorus? Because every thing I've read so far says she wrote the chorus and verses for Happier.
I feel like Olivia has very unique lyrics. Like she pulls inspiration from other artists and that’s just a fact. But the way the she mixes those themes and ways of singing makes her as an individual singer/songwriter very good.

Ok but didn’t anyone notice in deja vu when she says “we kinda do sound the same” there’s a harmony which is indicating two voices. Olivia’s voice and the other girl’s voice. Ofcourse they’re both Olivia but I think it was added to accommodate that line about how they sounds the same. I thought it was interesting

Olivia Rodrigo is the artist I wish I had at that age 20+ years ago. Grateful that teens nowadays have an artist like her. Just gonna go sit in my little corner and listen to Sour on repeat so I can try and process all that angst again.
I’m glad I have Sour at 40 as it is wonderful music for these times. It is timeless music, but it is nice to hear with all these years of experiences as an adult just as many teens are hearing Sour now.
I can’t wait for this girl to put out her 2nd album. I don’t think anyone has had such a good debut album! It’s going to be hard to top this one !

Omgggg
that explains the name of the album.
I saw a tiktok that said it could be Stages Of an Unofficial Relationship
WOW
what, this is genius
everytime y'all say 'that's a fucked up lyric' i could not stop laughing lol i love how deep you guys got into each song, this may be my favorite reaction to her album. i'm glad to see the love for 1 step forward, 3 step backs, unfortunately a lot of people underrate it so much! i think its brilliant the way she took such an amazing song already and made it her own somehow, and still made it sound good.
Love me some 2 steps back
1 step forward 3 steps back is my favorite song from the whole album 😆
she's already a powerhouse and she JUST DEBUTED!
imagine her numbers and charts sales in a few years. it will be crazy
Idk I feel like she'll have hard time writing songs in a few years...
WHEN SHE'S PRESIDENT OF THE U.S.
she's already breaking records omg
But there might be a lot of pressure 4 her 2 make her sophomore album better than this coz... you know what I mean, it's one hell of a debut album
@@PoppyIsMyMetalQueen ong
@@PoppyIsMyMetalQueenW opinion
I love how everyone's saying that enough for you is the most impressive lyrically because she wrote it all by herself 🥺
The way neither of them got that "hope ur okay" was about homophobia made me wonder how different it is where they live...as a queer American this song got me right from the beginning and it means so much to me
Yeah I’m also a queer American and I picked up on it too. One of my good friends is Australian and we actually talked about this. She said how it’s not that being queer isn’t accepted, it just that it’s not as talked about there. The conversation about being queer is growing to become more prominent in America and the topic isn’t as widely talked about there
i thjnk its just about being accepted since the first verse was about abuse
@@chungleanne2690 Well because of the line "His parents cared more about the bible Than being good to their child" I think that while yes it is about abuse, it's about being abused specifically because of being LGBT.
As a gay guy non biney guy, I didn'r even got it was about homophobia -
@@chungleanne2690it’s about LGBTQ+. He was abused bc he was gay
Not Emily saying ‘fuck you’ to all the 15 year olds who have Taylor and Olivia to help with their emotional trauma 😅
"1 step forward, 3 steps back" =13 Taylor's number. Lit 🙌🏻 It's like she's honouring her.
Taylor literally participated in writing that song
@@KittyCat-co8fs Olivia interpolated the melody of New Year's Day in the song, that's why Taylor and Jack are credited as writers! They didn't directly help in writing the song
@@KittyCat-co8fs Taylor didn't write the lyrics of the song. Olivia wrote the lyrics. Olivia interpolated the melody of New Year's Day into 1 Step Forward - that's why Taylor and Jack get credit too...solely for the melody - NOT the lyrics. Olivia did change up the melody too
omfg.....genius
@@muskaanawasthi1616 I knew it sounded familiar!!!!!! Deja Vu also sounds like that one Conan Gray song.
This is my favorite reaction to this album so far. Lots of attention to the lyrical excellence and some pretty darn good insights regarding song construction and production as well.

this is like the MOST obsessed album and ngl i can’t even stop listening to it. i really love the way olivia express all of her emotions to the songs
I get the fact that Olivia will be looked at through the Taylor lenses, but can we give Olivia the props for coming out with this album at 18 years old. Cmon. Let’s look at Olivia as Olivia, not only Taylor’s stan.
I don't feel like we took away any credit from Olivia when talking or comparing her to Taylor. She has sought inspiration from Taylor and many other artist and we just discussed that, I think its cool to see that!
@@chatsandreacts I didn’t say anything about “taking away the credit” I was simply saying how we should look at her achievement at 18 years old and just enjoy the music ☺️ I’m a HUGE Swiftie myself, and of course I see that Olivia was heavily inspired by Taylor’s art of songwriting, but again, she’s her own person, creating things from her own experiences. She deserves all the hype she gets, just for being herself 💗
I completely agreeeeeeee
@@martynacysia783 do you think she got all hype by her self from the beginning ? literally her listener are full with swifties and if they say Taylor inspired her than there's nothing wrong
@@ryanthemovielover1789 it’s about constant comparison, it might be damaging in the long run. That’s all.
Your conversation over "1 step forward 3 steps back" was so impressive , deep, structured, comparative and comprehensive that it made me freaking reconsider aspects of my own dissertation! This has nothing to do with what I am writing, but the way you addressed the song was EPIC. You both are magnificent. You don't just say "wow, damn, I love this, it hits home, etc." You actually dive in, pick something and run with it. I love you both! Thanks for the great video!
28:14 ok but just imagine: it's Olivia's concert and she performs this song but instead of the second verse starting, Taylor comes out on the stage and continues singing New year's day and they finish the song doing a duet. That would be awesome
OH MY GOD I WOULD CRY
HELLO, HOW DARE-?! someone's chopping onions in here ;-;
DUDEEE OMG WE NEED IT
She has at least 5 Grammy nominations on lock. Pop Vocal Album, Pop Solo, BNA, ROTY, SOTY. AOTY is within reach depending on how well the full set holds up for the rest of the year. I would be SHOCKED if she misses any of the first five though.
this comment aged well 👏
i love "hope ur ok" because not only does it discuss homophobia/queer youth (which i always appreciate in a song being as i have been out since i was 11) but when she says "i hope you know how proud i am you were created with the courage to unlearn all of their hatred" shes saying "you're not your parents, just because they believe something doesn't make YOU a bad person" and that is a message i, as well as many other people I'm sure, definitely need from time to time. When i hear the second verse talking about olivia's middle school friend and how her parents "hated who she loved" I absolutely lose it cause even tho I wasn't alone, my parents were home a lot, their gay jokes/bigotry made me feel so freaking isolated, to the point where i didn't come out till i was 18 (and that was on accident lmao) that song really speaks to me on multiple levels.
as somebody who's also out (not to parents LMAOO but to my friends), this is my fave song from sour bc of that reason. also bc it's j genuinely a great song, but its just so important. the message is so important. im sure there's some closeted kid out there who feels far less alone bc of this song which is epic bc nobody deserves to feel alone esp in their sexuality.
if this is what she's writing and sounding like at 18 imagine what's still to come 😩😩😩😩😩 top student at the taylor swift school of excellence for sure
she and conan are literally gold, misses taylor knows how to give a class 😭
The part where you guys pointed out her ending brutal with “Don’t know where to start” while it’s the first track on the album was the same reaction I got when I first heard the song because I’ve adapted the way you two analyze songs😅 I watched tons of reactions where I waited for them to point it out, but non of them did until you two. So the fact that we can actually share the same brain cells means a lot to me!!!
Reacts by Ash did ☺️
@@wvrlyearp4683 YES shes honestly the queen of reactions along with Ajay and Maya :)

@@chatsandreacts This just made me happier huhu but it's true though. Not everyone pays attention to the arrangements of songs in an album. I admit that before, I didn't care much about the sequence until you two (as well as your friends in the background) came into my life! I'm grateful for that because it really gives a new perspective to an album which makes us love them more.

It’s a crime you guys cut out “one heart broke, four hands bloody” from favorite crime🥲
IT IS A CRIME!!!! THANK YOU and "doe-eyed as you bury me" as well
YESZ
FOR REAL I WAS WAITING FOR THAT PART 😭
FUN FACT olivia actually didn't technically sample new year's day, it was interpolated in 1step forward 3 steps back which means that's it's olivia playing the piano on the track to the same melody of new year's day but it's tweaked a bit THIS MEANS that she's not using the sample directly from the rep album (which would give money and credits to taylor's old label) but instead it gives credit directly to taylor since she hasn't re-recorded rep yet! what a fucking power move by olivia
NO YOU GUYS DON'T UNDERSTAND THIS IS MY COMFORT CHANNEL AND Y'ALL ARE MY FAVE TH-camRS AND I DIDN'T EXPECT YOU'D REACT TO THIS ALBUM AND IT'S AN HOUR LONG THIS MAKES ME SO HAPPY AAAAAAAHH

What kind of crack does she put in her songs?? They've all been stuck in my head for DAYS 😭
They are pretty all I’ve been listening to
the good ones
exactly 😭
@Mitski is a goddess SAME
Wonderful lyrics, some songs slow and easy going while others are dancey and upbeat, the bass guitar playing, Olivia’s wonderful voice and power.
I see "favorite crime" as the closing chapter of the relationship and the heartbreak that came with it and then "hope ur ok" as her showcasing a different side of her songwriting abilities. It reminds me of what Taylor did with folklore and evermore in a way because those albums were more storytelling based with Taylor using her own experiences as an influence for writing about situations separate from her own. I feel like "hope ur ok" is the perfect album closer because it shows her depth as a songwriter and is kind of an indicator of what she's capable of. Her talent goes beyond writing songs about only heartbreak and I feel like this was the perfect way to give people a taste of that.
SO ecstatic that you guys made a reaction video to this! Love this channel sm 💗
you described this so perfectly!
Yess
But also a reminder: also brutal and jealousy, jealousy are not about heartbreak
also if you listen to the end of "hope ur ok" it sounds like a car ,and that could be connected to drivers license.i also think it could be saying at the end of the song ,to the person the songs are about that she hopes they're ok too . but the song also seems like it's to the lgbtq+ youth.
underrated line in jealousy, jealousy: when she says “beauty is not what i lack” she’s recognizing that she is the beauty standard and she’s not trying to hide that and i’ve never seen someone do that before
oops my bad she says my lack but same
i don't think that she's saying/recognizing that she is the beauty standard, it's more like she's saying that someone's else's beauty doesn't take away her own, but "it feels like that"
I thought she said “Their beauty is not my lack” meaning just because they are beautiful doesn’t mean she lacks beauty too.
@@obiajulumgbechi That is the lyric and that is what it means lolo
no, i dont think thats what it means..
i didn't know you existed until today but i'm fucking with this energy you guys have, the huge taylor swift knowledge and the geeking out about it while also celebrating Olivia and her skill and talent is just amazing, she deserves all the love you gave her. it's amazing how you analyzed the lyrics for a (mostly) first time listen. i just love it, i'm off to binge your other videos at 12:30am lol
Update: no regrets!!!!
It’s 12:30 for me too
I love that they recorded this reaction like this. It’s so cool to watch people hear songs for the first time. Also, knowing what’s coming and just waiting like, “Oh if you like that just wait like twenty seconds, it gets even better.”
She said it’s called sour because it’s about the souring of a romantic relationship and also your relationship with yourself. She said growing up she was so confident in herself and then after that first heartbreak, she suddenly had all these doubts and questioned her self-worth. That first kind of rejection is one of the most unpleasant shocks of adulthood - that someone who knew you so intimately could revert back to being a complete stranger. And so she said a lot of self-doubt crept in and she felt her relationship with herself souring.
She also said she wanted to play on the idea that she’s dealing with emotions that girls are usually kinda looked down upon for feeling. Like jealousy, spite, rage. We are made to feel like it’s childish and cringey to feel as intensely as we do if a guy has cheated or something, and are made fun of for it. She’s embracing those emotions and the fact that she’s sour unapologetically💞💞
I love herrr

So “hope ur ok” and the “courage to unlearn all of their hatred” I feel had to do with homophobic parents. Because earlier she says “her parents hated who she loved”
🌸🌸🌸
oooooh i love this theory😭 hadn't thought about it and now i'm crying
it definitely can be. especially at the end where she just uses "you" and no gendered pronouns. she's trying to send this as a general message to her audience, and she has a lot of lgbtq+ fans, so it feels really nice
Also “his parents cared more about the Bible than being good to their own child” would imply that the boy grew up in a homophobic, catholic household
I definitely think so, especially the “cared more about the Bible than being good to their own child” seems like homophobia to me
Omg I love that you brought up 21st Century Girls! It’s my favorite unreleased song and I really hope it’s one her next album
I love how you guys are being so insightful with every song and pay attention to the lyrics, production, vocals, backing vocals, layering, harmonies of songs.
THE WAY SHE SAID "there is actually someone out there that thinks ur enough" at the 2nd verse of enough for you and the way Olivia writes at the end of the song "feel sorry for yourself, cause someday I'll be everything to somebody else" IS CRAZY HER MIND WORKS
I get the same vibe when she says in jealousy jealousy, “their beauty’s not my lack.” JUST HOW IS SHE A MASTERMIND
@@Sophie-zj2mv FRRRR OML
she *did* write brutal after drivers license! I’m pretty sure it was in march, making it the last song written for the album :)
The beeping sound at the end of the song “hope ur ok” is the car turning off, just like how it starts in “driver’s license”!
I love All I Want as well. First time I heard it was before she's famous and I was already captivated by her vocal and songwriting.
Olivia made me appreciate music and the reason why I listen to Taylor swift is because of her! she made me look at music with a new perspective and now I do listen to lyrics carefully and interpret my thoughts and try to find what it means. I love her.
Swifties have a very high standard when it comes to writing and production. Olivia did great, we now luv her!
Fuck I luv that
Now that you mention her mom's a therapist there's a lyric about that how she found a therapist for him in good 4 you makes sense more
her dad's the therapist, her mother is the teacher
I'm 18 and I can tell you that Brutal is my mood 90% of the time. Like that song literally represents the majority of Gen z
have you guys thought about reacting to Conan gray? he’s another young artist that regards Taylor as a big influence on him, he and Olivia are buddies too. He’s got a bunch of stuff out though.
I think that’d be soo good !!
Omg yesss
they def should
YESSS
her children!!
What I love about this is the fact that her songs kind of open you up and lower your guard then invade with the truth, although it seems, pun intended, brutal, I think it works pretty well, and people love it because it's so relatable
she said in an interview that "hope he took his bad deal and made a royal flush" from hope ur ok was one of her favourite lyrics on the album
OMG I didn’t know you were gonna react to it but I’m here for it omg
Taylor swift’s daughter carrying the torch the future is in safe hands. Mama swift has to do a song with her.
Hope ur okay is the most beautiful song she ever made, the bridge is so beautiful as if you're lifted to heaven
you guys cut the part in jealousy, jealousy when she says “you go out every night in your daddys new car yeah you’re living the life....etc” part and that was my favorite part of the song i was hoping to get your inputtt :(
Sameeee I was so disappointed when they skipped it
Hi! The theory for the outro in "hope ur ok" is actually that she's turning the car engine off. The connection is that in "drivers licence" (which is her debut song that started it all) starts with the car engine turning on.
Absolutely superior react!!!! What I love about the closer is that Olivia seems to contextualize her pain surrounding her first real heartbreak. "Nothing's forever/nothing's as good as it seems" it seems like she's saying "I've been in pain, but people I love have been in pain too, and they survived." She's not saying that her breakup isn't a big deal, but rather that she knows she's resilient (butterfly wings) like her friends.
Underrated commenr
Comment*
If i were her, i would be a bit tired of being compared to other artists lol i mean its very understandable ,but shes OLIVIA after all
THISSS she is her own person she’s not taylor or billie or somethingg😩
I think she is honored actually. Imagine being 18 with your first work and have all that instant sucess, and be compared to superstar. I mean what they’re doing in this video is not comparing to drag, is more to see better how her level of writing songs is already so superior lol And of course she is Olivia, nobody is saying she is the new taylor or whatever because she already showed with this album her unique work🤗
maybe she wouldn't be if she didn't copy other artists...
@@schou1219 you do realize there’s something called sampling music right?

I absolutely loved the you you analyzed the entire album: lyrics’ meaning, similarities between her music and others, the various emotions she expresses and most - SUPPORT AND APPRECIATION!! I think it’s important to encourage her to keep up with the good work because she has really great chances of winning anything and everything!!! :) Also, adore that you two are a perfect match ❤️

Has anyone else mentioned that *Deja Vu* 's bridge is inspired by *Cruel Summer* ?
Omg that’s why i felt like “i know u get deja vu” sounded similar to “i don’t wanna keep secrets just to keep you” and the whole bridge of deja vu just screams cruel summer vibes
this album gives me goosebumps like the lyrics are incredible so good at portraying emotions
RIGHTTT
The way I confidently sang “there’s glitter on the floor after the party” and then realized it was a different song

Being straight out of a toxic relationship, this whole album i related to, every song was accurate. I sobbed my eyes out with these songs and felt understood. (Especially with Traitor because the girl he "cheated" on me with, he took 3 days date her)
im so sorry, he sucks :( u deserve sm better than him
@@shineinstars You'll find better friends
i interpreted hope ur ok as the closer like the whole album she focused on this boy and how he made her feel but then as she moved on and grew, she realized that her energy and love can be given to ppl that need and deserve it more
Yes! Like if those people can get through what they went through and come out on the other side (are ok) then she can get through the heartbreak. Like the metaphor of the letters addressed (all of the verses) to these people are being used to patch up her butterfly wings because she’s taking solace in their strength.
little fun fact, in music theory what olivia does on deja vu with the harmonies is called ‘text painting’/word painting’. it means that the lyrics reflect the music. like when a melody goes lower when the lyrics mention the word down and vice versa. there’s tons of cool examples and it’s always a good sign when producers and writers knowingly incorporate that 🥰
Similar to 1 Step Forward, 3 Steps Back when she says “Love of your life, until I make you mad”
There are three call backs of the lyrics reflected in DejaVu. The first two are obvious, the laugh “Ha-ha-ha-ha…”, and singing in “harmony.” The third one is commonly missed: “She probably tells you she loves you between the chorus and the verse.” It’s a bit masked by the music but Olivia then whispers “I love you” right between the verse and chorus.
you hit on a lot of the moments where I feel like she specifically references/is inspired by a TS song, but i think "hope ur ok" is SO seven!! a childhood friend who was abused, they've lost touch, she still feels love for them, and the timelessness and eternity of that feeling and moment. It's kind of magical to try and think about the fact that she wrote this album post folklore and evermore so stuff like favorite crime (no body no crime maybe?), hope ur ok (seven), good 4 u (mr perfectly fine) etc.
I seriously hope the rumor that she is dropping a part 2 titled “Sweet” in the near future is true!
I love this entire album. Each song is its own masterpiece and it forced me to re-evaluatey first love who I never realized was so toxic and manipulative towards me. I put him on such a peddlestool I never saw it, even 6 years after the relationship died.
