Olivia Rodrigo Searches for the Cure on ‘You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love’: Stream It Now

The project features Billboard Canadian Hot 100 No. 1 "Drop Dead" as well as a collaboration with Robert Smith.

Olivia Rodrigo has finally released her third studio album, You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love, proving once again that she’s the queen of moody love songs.
