oh my GOD this album. shit. i love every word. reminds me of that time in middle school/high school when i first realized that being a teenager was “difficult” and that music “got me.” it was all about heartbreak and being misunderstood (you wanna know who i really am? / yeah, so do i) and i wanted to be able to relate to every word. in reality, the only experience with “love” i had at 15 were those times where crushes on boys felt monumental. when they fizzled (inevitably) i could sing along to this and it made all of those confusing feelings perversely enjoyable. this kind of music absolutely relishes in that strange you-knew-it-wouldn’t-work sort of relationship. “this is not an exit” still brings on the chills. who knows if this music is considered technically good? i’ll never care.
This was one of your big teen anthems, wasn’t it, Beca?
