"Love Is Embarrassing" was the last song Olivia Rodrigo and Dan Nigro decided to include on Guts (2023).

Olivia Rodrigo's debut studio album, Sour (2021), was released in May 2021, [1] [2] following which she took a break from songwriting for six months. [3] She conceived the follow-up album, Guts (2023), at the age of 19, while experiencing "lots of confusion, mistakes, awkwardness & good old fashioned teen angst". [4] Sour's producer, Dan Nigro returned to produce every track on it. [5] [6] [7] They wrote over 100 songs, including the more rock-oriented tracks on the album because they drew a bigger reaction from her audiences during live shows. [8] Guts was created over a period of 10 months, with songwriting and recording consuming the first eight and the final two being used for mixing and fine-tuning. [9]

The following morning, after experiencing a night when Rodrigo lay in bed replaying every embarrassing moment in her life and feeling self-conscious, she wrote "Love Is Embarrassing" as the last song for the album in her living room. [10] [11] She presented it to Nigro just five days before Guts was due for submission, and it was included on the album even though he thought it was not a good idea. [9] Rodrigo announced the album title on June 26, 2023, and its lead single, "Vampire", was released four days later. [12] [13] On August 1, 2023, she revealed Guts' tracklist, which features "Love Is Embarrassing" as the ninth track. [14] The song became available for digital download on the album, which was released on September 8, 2023. [15] It was used in a commercial that Rodrigo released in partnership with Sony in November 2023. [16]

"Love Is Embarrassing" is a new wave song [17] [18] [19] with influences of riot grrrl [20] and pop rock. [21] Rolling Stone 's Rob Sheffield described it as an "impeccable eighties new-wave tribute" and one of Guts' "bops [that] go for a 1980s synth/guitar new wave chug". [22] [23] The song's chorus includes lively guitars and a new wave-style beat, and its bridge received comparisons to the work of Devo. [19] [22] [24] Rodrigo's tone conveys complete disenchantment with a love interest, and she keeps shifting her delivery; [19] [24] Sheffield believed she sings with a "hiccup in her voice" that is reminiscent of Dale Bozzio. [22] He compared the fusion of synthesizers and guitars to the Cars, the Go-Go's, and Missing Persons, [22] [23] while Lucas Martins of Beats Per Minute thought Rodrigo's "looseness and her rockstar swagger" were evocative of Debbie Harry. [25] Other artists "Love Is Embarrassing" was compared to include Two Door Cinema Club, Kelly Clarkson, Marina and the Diamonds, [26] [27] Karen O, Bryan Ferry, [28] Kathleen Hanna, [20] Paramore, [29] and Alvvays. [30]

According to The New York Times ' Jon Caramanica and the Los Angeles Times ' Mikael Wood, the title of "Love Is Embarrassing" references the work of Sky Ferreira. [17] [31] "Love Is Embarrassing" has self-deprecating lyrics, [32] in which Rodrigo derides her crush and feels self-conscious about how much she was attracted to him. [18] [24] She recounts how she informed her friends that he was "the one" just a month after meeting him, after which he immediately disappointed her. [17] [32] Rodrigo reevaluates her feelings and comes to the conclusion that love is "fucking embarrassing", describing the crush as "some weird second string loser" who is not worth her time. [24] [26] She regrets consoling him when his ex-girlfriend began dating a new man and recalls her anger when he found a different girl who was like Rodrigo. [23] [26] Despite this experience, Rodrigo admits that she still fantasizes about romantic dramas in her mind and will continue seeking love: "I'm planning out my wedding with some guy I'm never marrying / I'm giving up, I'm giving up, but I keep coming back for more." [22] [24] Billboard 's Jason Lipshutz described "Love Is Embarrassing" as a "diary-ready account of young heartbreak". [19]

Critical reception

"Love Is Embarrassing" received positive reviews from music critics, some of whom highlighted its production. AllMusic's Heather Phares and Consequence 's Paolo Ragusa named it a standout track on Guts. [18] [24] Lipshutz believed the song would find an audience in new wave fans and proved Rodrigo's unparalleled talent for blending deep musical genre exploration with intimate and diary-like stories of young heartbreak. [19] Caramanica believed it displayed how Rodrigo had not given into pressure to work with pop producers like Max Martin and pursued an intimate sound instead, and Martins thought Guts tracks like it promised Rodrigo a bright future in rock music. [17] [25] On the other hand, Gabriel Saulog of Billboard Philippines thought the song was one of the weaker and more forgettable tracks on Guts and would have benefited from a longer duration, but its spirited hooks were enjoyable. [33]

Some commented on Rodrigo's vocal performance. Wood believed she displayed malleable vocal phrasing which was able to keep up with the evolving distorted guitars. [31] The Line of Best Fit 's Matthew Kim thought her self-critical delivery of the line "Jesus, what was I even doing?" amplified and complemented the album's diverse spectrum of emotions. [34]

Critics also praised the lyricism on "Love Is Embarrassing" as relatable. [19] [35] Lipshutz believed the song would be relatable to anybody who has cried about an ex-partner and regretted it later. [19] Nick Levine of BBC News thought it would resonate with audiences of many ages despite being set in high school. [36] Caramanica believed "Love Is Embarrassing" displayed Rodrigo's remarkably pure songwriting which captured raw emotions even in the most stylized lyrics. [17] Slant Magazine 's Charles Lyons-Burt believed her lyricism had become more precise, which improved the resonance of both her self-criticism and critiques of others, and songs like "Love Is Embarrassing" revealed different attitudes or emotions with each listen due to their conflicted core. [37]

Reviewers highlighted specific lyrics. In September 2023, Sheffield ranked "Love Is Embarrassing" as Rodrigo's 20th-best song, picking "You found a new version of me/And I damn near started World War 3" as his favorite lyric from the song. [22] Nylon placed the lyric alongside "Just watch as I crucify myself/ For some weird second string/ Loser who's not worth mentioning" in its list of Guts' most impeccable lyrics, with GQ including the latter in its list of the album's standout and "gutsiest" lyrics. [38] [39] Ragusa believed the latter was an example of her sophisticated songwriting, highlighting the choice of the word "crucify" as immensely theatrical and the description of the crush as absolutely hilarious. [24]

"Love Is Embarrassing" debuted at number 25 on the US Billboard Hot 100 issued for September 23, 2023.

Rodrigo opened her Tiny Desk concert in December 2023 by performing "Love Is Embarrassing". [10] [11] The song was included on the set list of her 2024–2025 concert tour, the Guts World Tour. [56] The performance contains elements of Toni Basil's 1982 song "Mickey". [57] [58] Rodrigo performs choreography with female background dancers, which is "meant to be silly and, well, embarrassing" according to Miami New Times ' Celia Almeida; [59] Rolling Stone's Tomás Mier believed she channeled pop artists like Cyndi Lauper, and The Tennessean 's Audrey Gibbs compared the dancers to the lineup in "Cell Block Tango" from the musical Chicago (1975). [60] [61]

While Rodrigo was reprising it at the tour's stop in London's O2 Arena, the laces of her bandeau top broke. [62] She held the top to keep it from falling off, drawing the attention of a dancer who tried to fix it, while the group continued performing high-energy choreography. [62] [63] Rodrigo slightly subdued her dancing during the first chorus when the wardrobe malfunction happened, stating: "This is fucking embarrassing. I almost flashed you guys, but it's OK now!", and carried out the intended choreography during the second chorus. [63] [64] Critics praised how she handled the situation, [62] [65] [66] and Parade 's Sammi Burke believed that Rodrigo's voice remained steady through it. [64] Sydney Bucksbaum of Entertainment Weekly and Logan DeLoye of iHeartRadio thought that similarly to Rodrigo, the dancer also flawlessly completed the high-energy choreography while keeping hold of her top, seamlessly performing as if it were planned.
