The exciting and psychedelic video coupled with the catchy and relatable music has captured viewers and left us all excited for her new album, which she announced the same day ‘Deja Vu’ dropped. The music and scenery are the same, but Rodrigo is no longer driving the car, and the new girl has officially replaced her and given the viewers a sense of deja vu. When the video seemingly comes to an end, the song starts over. She breaks all but one, which is showing the new girl pictured as Rodrigo was at the beginning of the video. Suddenly, the girl on the screens turns and waves as the bridge repeats lyrics from earlier in the song: “Strawberry ice cream in Malibu/Don’t act like we didn’t do that sh*t too/You’re trading jackets like we used to do/Yeah everything is all reused.” Rodrigo is shown standing up, grabbing a baseball bat, and shattering the screens to pieces. The music gets louder and more frantic, and Rodrigo’s expression becomes increasingly concerned. The chorus repeats, this time with clips showing the two young women mirroring one another, repeating each others’ actions, and staring at each other. Rodrigo goes on to sing “Do you call her?/Almost say my name/’Cause let’s be honest/We kinda do sound the same.” The video begins to show her in all the places the new girl is pictured–proving that her ex is taking his new girlfriend to all the places that he went with Rodrigo.Īt this point, Rodrigo seemingly alludes to the dramatic love-triangle between her and actors Joshua Bassett and Sabrina Carpenter with the shady lyric “Another actress/I’d hate to think that I was just your type.” The boxy screens show videos of this new girl in colorful and romantic locations. Rodrigo sings “When she’s with you/do you get deja vu?” before a psychedelic beat-drop and a clip of her walking into a room full of old-fashioned televisions. She drives away only to arrive home and put on the same dress, singing the lyrics to the chorus:“So when you gonna tell her/That we did that too?/She thinks it special/But it’s so reused.” She pulls up to an ivy-covered home and peeks in the window to see a girl (played by Talia Ryder) dancing around in a green dress. The lyrics describe dates she’s gone on with her ex-lover, saying “Car rides to Malibu/Strawberry ice cream/One spoon for two/And trading jackets.” In the video, she is featured driving an old-timey convertible and eating ice cream. Rodrigo has fascinated us all once more with her artistic music videos and her relatable, heart wrenching songs. “That was our place, I found it first / I made the jokes you tell to her / When she's with you.In January, 2021, Olivia Rodrigo broke the internet with her hit song ‘Driver’s License.’ On April 1st she dropped her new song ‘Deja Vu,’ and it was no April Fool’s joke. “So when you gonna tell her / That we did that too? She thinks it's special / But it's all re-used,” the lyrics read. In the new song, Rodrigo sings about an ex moving on. “It’s resonating with people because of how emotional it is, and I think everything else is not important.” “I totally understand people’s curiosity with the specifics of who the song’s about and what it’s about, but to me, that’s really the least important part of the song,” Rodrigo told Billboard in January as the Carpenter chatter made headlines. Is Olivia Rodrigo's 'Deja Vu' About Joshua Bassett and Sabrina Carpenter? Lyric Breakdown “And you’re probably with that blonde girl / Who always made me doubt / She’s so much older than me / She’s everything I’m insecure about,” she sings in the track about the 21-year-old former Girl Meets World star. (She previously teased the song via Instagram months before she recorded it.) Social media users were subsequently convinced that Rodrigo penned “Drivers License” about Carpenter after she changed the lyrics from “brunette” to “blonde” before she released the track in January. After their split, he was linked to fellow Disney darling Sabrina Carpenterduring the summer of 2020. Rodrigo reportedly dated Bassett, 20, while filming season 1 of the Disney+ series. “I thought it’d be interesting to write a song, using deja vu, about how sometimes when somebody moves on in a relationship and they get with a new partner, you watch it and you’re like, ‘Oh, my gosh, that was all of the stuff that I did.’ I think that’s a really relatable, universal thing.” “I really like descriptive, narrative-based songwriting, so we tried to do that in the verses and paint pictures of all the specific things that you do in a relationship,” the 18-year-old musician told American Songwriterahead of the Thursday, April 1, release. Olivia Rodrigo is at it again! Three months after making headlines for seemingly writing “Drivers License” about her High School Musical: The Musical: The Series costar J oshua Bassett, fans are convinced she’s continuing the narrative with her new single, “Deja Vu.”
