On Aug. 11, Olivia Rodrigo released a music video for her latest single «Bad Idea Right?» In the 90s-inspired grunge visual, the singer contemplates whether she should meet up with an ex-boyfriend.
“Bad Idea Right?” is such a self-sabotage bop.
Get in, girls — it’s time to stop Olivia Rodrigo from making some chaotic decisions. On Rodrigo’s latest single “Bad Idea Right?,” the singer is struggling to cut ties with her loser ex-boyfriend (her words, not mine). And while that sounds exhausting, the track’s production is the complete opposite. This release is such a playful riff-driven hit, and shows that Rodrigo isn’t afraid to add some whimsy to an already disastrous situation. That reality comes alive in the song’s music video, which sees her going through the ringer (think of hitchhiking in the back of a stranger’s truck) to visit an old flame. Yeah, hitting the block button has never sounded easier.
“Bad Idea Right?,” which was released on Aug. 11, is the second offering from Rodrigo’s upcoming album, Guts. She kicked off this new era with her single “Vampire,” an atmospheric ballad about calling out a toxic ex-boyfriend.
