Lyrically clever (the story of someone convincing themselves they're not in love through a series of non-convincing vignettes)
Musically sophisticated (the backing vocals are some of the most magical sounds ever recorded to tape -- the full story of how it happened is worth checking out especially if you're into music production or composition)
Kelsey Lu's cover for the Euphoria soundtrack is pretty badass too.
I've probably been listening to this since it first came out and I heard it on the radio as a kid and I'm not sick of it yet. Which is saying something.
“Big boys don’t cry.”
Stumbled upon this song that only has 300k streams (deserves more imo) that came out in 2024 but has that 90s-2000s rom-com whimsical pop vibe that I love so much from artists like Vanessa Carlton (A Thousand Miles) and Natalie Imbruglia (Torn) They need to make more music like this!

Some other hits:
Bad at being a woman, worse at being a man, nevertheless still kicking
Fear is useless and temporary, glory is forever
If it sucks, hit the bricks! You can leave!
