While we are expecting her brand new album on June 12 Olivia Rodrigo gives another taste from that by releasing another single.After “Drop Dead” that so far didn’t go as well as expected her brand new single “The Cure” is a five minute jam (rare in a world of songs under 3 minutes) is a soft rock that starts as a ballad with a building up that blends elements of pop, rock, and folk, openly embracing her influences. The lyricism is just great, with her struggling and internally battling with herself on her self-worth and paranoia. The chorus is just so well written, with her understanding that her lover is trying to help her figuratively suck the poison (or her insecurities) out of her, and she knows it’s the right thing to do, but she has a lot of hesitation that it will CURE her true pain.Overall it’s a good single but i don’t know if the radios will use this 5 minute song in heavy rotation.
