debut

i remember hearing teardrops on my guitar at 9 years old in an outback steakhouse and going 'oh this is pretty good' and begging my mom for the album. even though i only come back to a few songs on the regular from this album, it's still one that holds a special place in my heart and it feels like a creative genius jsut starting to figure out what having a voice in art even means

  • tim mcgraw

    • i think i never quite got this song because i never liked tim mcgraw--and i'm being so serious, i think i never listened to it cause i was like "idk who this man is"

  • picture to burn

    • straight girl's obsessions with the homophobic version is weird but this song fucking SLAPS

  • teardrops on my guitar

    • feels so 13-14 years old and not one i actively want to listen to but i enjoy it nevertheless

  • a place in this world

    • this song cuts me to the core--i remember singing it in lessons and even today it makes me feel seen and udnerstood

  • cold as you

    • blueprint for a track 5 but probably her weakest one

  • the outside

    • it's okay, but it's not one i'm actively going to go listen to

  • tied together with a smile

    • this song hurts a lot more at 25, when trying to keep everything together, than it did when i was younger

  • stay beautiful

    • not sure i could sing any part of this song without listening to it while doing so

  • should've said no

    • fuck it up blondie fuck it UP

  • mary's song

    • honestly i don't get the people that love this song so much--it's fine but really is just fine

  • our song

    • this is the most peak country i will ever get in terms of songs i enjoy

  • i'm only me when i'm with you

    • such a jumpy song and makes me wanna whip my hair around

  • invisible

    • i remember liking this song more when i was younger and nowadays it's not really a hit for me

  • a perfectly good heart

    • that one phrase in the chorus is really solid, the rest i care less about
