That was the show we talked about, played you the song she’s singing now when she is with you”. “So when are you going to tell her that we did that, too? She thinks it’s special, but it’s all reused. This song, which was destined to be a success from the outset, is once again dedicated to a love triangle, in which Olivia is again the person who has been left out: Take a look at our breakdown of the All Too Well lyrics meaning (10 minute version) to see how Rodrigo’s hit compares to Taylor Swift’s greatest breakup song (and widely considered her greatest song period). The dynamic composition, both melodic and lyrical, reminds of Swift, too. The shouts of “cheerleader” of the chorus of Déjà vu definitely bring the song closer to the commerciality of Taylor Swift, Olivia Rodrigo’s favorite artist. In short: your current relationship is like déjà vu. Olivia asks him when he will tell his new girlfriend that all the things that he has been doing together with her are the same things he had been doing with Olivia. It is addressed to this guy with whom she had a relationship, and who now has a romance with another girl. So I had this line written for a while, which says, ‘When she’s with you, do you have déjà vu?'”Īs well as Driver’s License, Déjà Vu comes with a history of lovelessness that seems to have remained silent on Rodrigo. So I thought it would be nice to play with words using as a metaphor for this universal thing that happens when you break up with someone and they hook up with someone else, you see them living the life that you used to live… It’s a super universal thing that I think happens to everyone and we really don’t talk enough about it. I really love this concept and I have déjà vu all the time. “I’m kind of obsessed with the concept of déjà vu. In the conversation, the singer also reveals that Déjà Vu was written shortly after her debut single, Driver’s License: To put an end to the social media rumors, in an interview with Apple Music, Olivia spoke about the real meaning of her new single. Of course, with this superb release, the internet started to speculate if the song is in direct correlation with the previous one. The song, which arrived with a beautiful video, talks about a relationship that has come to an end and the girl asks if her ex has the feeling of déjà vu when being with this new person. The controversy over the end of the relationship also continues in this song!
That’s because the audiovisual work brings the presence of a car, reminding a lot of the Driver’s License footprint, and its lyrics addressed to a love that didn’t work out.
That I was the one who taught you Billy Joel (Oh)Ī different girl now, but there’s nothing newĪfter the success of Driver’s License, Olivia Rodrigo released her second song, entitled Déjà Vu, which also comes with a clip full of references.
Play her piano, but she doesn’t know (Oh, oh) You’re tradin’ jackets like we used to do Played you the songs she’s singing now when she’s with youĭon’t act like we didn’t do that shit, too In between the chorus and the verse (Ooh I love you) Now I bet you even tell her how you love her I hate to think that I was just your type ’Cause let’s be honest, we kinda do sound the same I made the jokes you tell to her when she’s with you She thinks it’s special, but it’s all reused So when you gonna tell her that we did that, too?
