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.

The pop star’s new LP arrived Friday (June 12), complete with 13 tracks exploring the spectrum of romantic love, from the first rush of the honeymoon phase to the creeping in of uncertainty and the emotional tidal wave that hits after it ends. It comes three years after she last released an album — having topped the Billboard 200 with 2023’s Guts — and even longer since she first established her proficiency for capturing the emotional turbulence of love on debut LP Sour.
“I realized all my favorite romantic love songs were beautiful because they had a tinge of fear or yearning in them,” she said early on of You Seem Pretty Sad in an interview with British Vogue. “I felt a similar way about falling in love, that the second I’m in a really great relationship, I’m gonna start feeling good about myself, and this stuff is going to fall into place. But it just doesn’t work like that.”
The first tastes of the LP fans got were lead single “Drop Dead,” which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, followed by “The Cure.” She also previewed “Begged” on Saturday Night Live in May and debuted “What’s Wrong With Me” live with collaborator Robert Smith at Primavera Sound in Barcelona.
Rodrigo will now gear up to hit the road in support of the project, with plans to kick off her Unraveled Tour in September. The arena run will take her across North America and Europe through May of next year.
