I love a good he said/she said. From inclusive classics like Human League’s “Don’t You Want Me” and Gotye’s “Somebody I Used To Know” to response tracks like John Mayer’s “Paper Doll” (a response to T. Swift’s “Dear John”), I love hearing one side, imagining the whole scene, and then being corrected by the other. You won’t hear any of those tracks on this list, though. This is a response playlist.
My /ToveLo playlist always played to me like thoughts that go on in someone’s head when they’re going through a messy breakup. They hate the other person, miss them, try hooking up once for old time’s sake, romanticize what could have been, with the final track “Boys” representing getting out of your head and the way you present yourself to your friends and the world.
This is the other side of that breakup.
