suites Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 She has a new song called bad idea right? Sounds like Spiders Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kidsmoke Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 I'll have to listen to it. My husband actually knows her dad really well. At least Olivia seems to have some real talent & not just a pretty face. If "Spiders" influenced her, that's not a bad idea, right? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jackpunch Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 It has a repetitive 4/4 beat, that's the only thing I hear that's similar Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chisoxjtrain Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 I don't really hear it. IMHO it is by far the worst song on the album. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
zspaul Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 Found the chat here as well predating my fb post saying the same, lol. Regardless of connection, I like the song and album even more Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TCP Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 Meanwhile, 19 years ago on the Neu! message boards: "This Spiders song sounds like Hallogallo". 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TCP Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 Hopefully my last post didn't come across too snarky! Courtney Barnett also had a Spider sounding song on her last record too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jff Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 Don't really know her, but I saw that she has The Breeders opening part of her tour. That's pretty badass. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

kidsmoke Posted September 15, 2023 Share Posted September 15, 2023 Yeah, her dad's a solid, sensible good guy. Olivia came up thru the Disney organization. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ghost Of Bob Cumming Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 Interesting because a BBC website feature on her this week mentioned that she tries to write a song every day. Now who does that sound like? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Brian F. Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 I recognize the similarity the original poster identifies. Olivia Rodrigo is really talented, although this song, with the speak-singing and the Avril Lavigne chant choruses-- I'm not really sure what to think of it. One thing that's refreshing about her is that she is very much a rock-oriented artist. There aren't many pop stars today that would fit right in on '90s alternative-rock radio, but Rodrigo would.
