Olivia Rodrigo Reveals Her 3 Favorite Songs on ‘Guts’
Olivia Rodrigo‘s second album Guts has officially been out in the world for about three weeks, meaning fans have had just enough time to decide which of the project’s 12 tracks are their favorites. But which ones are Rodrigo’s?
In a recent interview with Amazon Music, the 20-year-old pop star revealed her top three picks from her sophomore effort’s tracklist, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and saw all 12 of its songs ranked on the Hot 100. And even though lead single “Vampire” went to No. 1, it didn’t make Rodrigo’s cut — nor did “Bad Idea Right?” or “Get Him Back,” both of which have gotten the music video treatment.
“My three favorite songs off the album right now,” she began, emphasizing that the following are simply her favorites at the moment, “are ‘All-American Bitch,’ ‘Logical’ and ‘Love Is Embarrassing.'”
The singer-songwriter was also tasked with picking out three emojis to describe each of the tracks, which dropped alongside the rest of Guts on Sept. 8. For “All-American Bitch,” she chose a baseball emoji, a firework and a lipstick “because the song is kind of about being a girl and fitting into gender norms.”
For “Logical,” a vulnerable piano ballad about an unhealthy relationship, she selected three back-to-back crying face emojis. And for “Love Is Embarrassing,” a shocked face emoji, a sad face emoji and an engagement ring, the last symbolizing the song’s lyric “I’m planning out my wedding with some guy I’m never marrying.”
“All-American Bitch” also happens to feature Rodrigo’s favorite lyric on the album, which she revealed last week on the TODAY show. “I don’t know, the one that’s really jumping out me is — I love the line ‘I got class and integrity/ Just like a d–n Kennedy,” she said on NBC’s morning program.
