And one of the reactions that he has done recently is of my artist that I'm going to be tangled in song this week.

So Olivia Rodrigo is on her third album, and I have listened to both of her first albums, but they were not albums that I really connected with.

I liked the singles, but I never really got into the other tracks and did a deep dive into Sour or Guts.

It was just the sounds, maybe instrumentation, lyrics I wasn't really connecting with and just figured that she would not be an artist that I really evolved with or got into.

Obviously, I love that she loves Alanis Morissette, my favorite, and they've done some stuff together and she's cited her as one of her influences.

So I gave this new album a listen, and I gotta say, I think it's the album of the year so far.

I have not listened to an album start to finish where I felt so enthralled and just drawn in by each and every song in a very long time.

And I think it could be the album of the year, which is big for a fan who hasn't really been a fan before and didn't really connect with her previous work.

It seems to be in one, all the different sounds, how it starts off a piano ballad.

I just want to scream and shout and dance all around the house listening to this song.

I think I've been watching a lot of reaction videos online of people just going crazy over this album and every song, and I'm totally tuned in.
