For Proust, love was mutual torture, for Bukowski it was something stranger than a burning lawn, for Olivia Rodrigo it's a fucking embarrassment. Yet in Drop Dead she lets herself go and regardless of poets, philosophers and lessons taught by the greats of the past she is ready to risk everything while hope and possibility shine on a magical night. The song is a dopamine rush in which with each verse the euphoria resulting from falling in love grows: “Kiss me and I could die instantly”. She's probably the most carefree Rodrigo I've ever heard. He had put in Sour…

Se le cose fossero andate in un’altra maniera, oggi ci ricorderemmo di Geoff Downes come il tizio che suona le note di Video Killed the Radio Star dei Buggles che il 1° agosto 1981 hanno dato il via non solo ai programmi di MTV, ma anche a un’era di storia della musica popolare.

The dedication reads, “To all the stolen water of Los Angeles and to anyone who ever drowned,” while the back cover pays homage to a doomed Ophelia. The album opens with three jet-engine chords and a wink at Love’s own notoriety. “Oh, make me over/I’m all I wanna be,” she snarls over a buzzing riff. “A walking study/In demonology.” Full of “yeah-ah-ahs” and glittery blown-out…
