I was 8, and I remember people talking about how awful it was and that it shouldnt be on tv, and I was like oohhhh yeahhhhhhhh but then going and listening to it on repeat and finding it whenever I could in the freeview music channels and looking at any pictures of her I could lmao.
I was so obsessed with this song when I was 14 ever since I first listened to it on Gossip Girl (still am), and I remember vividly, having it permanently on my YouTube history search, only for a guy to read that and think I was looking for porn 😔. On YouTube of all places. 🥲. I got ridiculed. I felt shame, but not anymore. I LOVE THIS SONG.
