Favorite Crime
Olivia Rodrigo’s debut album, SOUR
“Favorite Crime” is the tenth track on Olivia Rodrigo’s debut album, SOUR. While it’s a great song with a catchy bridge, the performance in Olivia Rodrigo: GUTS world tour It’s a bit disappointingespecially considering the other exceptional performances in the documentary. Rodrigo sings “Favorite Crime” sitting cross-legged on stage next to one of his guitarists, without any additional choreography or theatrics to enhance the performance. Of course, it’s important to balance dramatic, choreographed concert numbers with simple numbers, but “Favorite Crime” is the second song in a row that Rodrigo has performed in a similar way.
Therefore, “Favorite Crime” feels like a repeat of the previous song that Rodrigo had just played. The song has a lot of potential—Additional audience interactions, lighting effects, or even a visual backdrop could have improved this number.. Additionally, Olivia Rodrigo has performed “Favorite Crime” on several occasions – it’s even a musical performance featured in her first documentary, Olivia Rodrigo: Driving Home 2 U (A Sour Movie). So it’s natural to expect more this time. Regardless, “Favorite Crime” is still an excellent song, and Rodrigo’s voice is on point, as always.
23
Happier
Olivia Rodrigo’s debut album, SOUR
“Happier” is another song from Olivia Rodrigo’s debut album SOURand she sings it right before “Favorite Crime”. As it is Rodrigo’s first performance sitting cross-legged next to the guitarist, it is not repetitive. Furthermore, Rodrigo tells an anecdote about how she wrote the song before singing it. “Happier” has a bittersweet theme, which makes it ideal for acting with minimal theatrics and choreography. However, there are better performances in Olivia Rodrigo: GUTS world touralthough “Happier” is still a great song.
22
Teenage dream
Olivia Rodrigo’s Sophomore Album GUTS
“Teenage Dream” is the last track on Olivia Rodrigo’s second album, STOMACH. Rodrigo plays the piano while singing “Teenage Dream”, the second song in the show in which she uses the piano. There is also a background montage with images from Olivia Rodrigo’s childhood. As Rodrigo passionately sings this vulnerable song, the performance itself is a bit disappointing because it is the second song in a row that she plays on the piano, without any significant changes other than images from her childhood. In addition, “Drivers License” follows, a passionate piano performance with perfectly synchronized lighting.
The performance of “Teenage Dream” in Olivia Rodrigo: GUTS world tour works more like the studio recording of the original STOMACH album instead of a live concert performance. The song would be better if the two piano performances were spaced out in the film instead of appearing one after the other. The lighting effects during “Teenage Dream” are also minimal and barely noticeable, making the performance feel like it could have been more than it is. However, “Teenage Dream” is still an excellent song and definitely one of the best tracks on the album. STOMACH.
21
The grudge
Olivia Rodrigo’s Sophomore Album GUTS
“The Grudge” is the tenth track on the original STOMACH album. Olivia Rodrigo sings the song at the end of the show, between “Deja Vu” and “Brutal”. “The Grudge” is one of the best songs on STOMACHpossibly the best overall. However, the performance doesn’t quite portray what a masterpiece this song is. Rodrigo’s vocals are impeccable and she delivers a mesmerizing performance. However, sandwiched between two lively performances, Olivia Rodrigo: GUTS world tour portrays “The Grudge” as a filler song rather than one of Rodrigo’s best.
20
Vampire
Olivia Rodrigo’s Sophomore Album GUTS
“Vampire” is the first single from Olivia Rodrigo’s album STOMACH album, a song that starts out as a ballad that eventually turns into a melancholy pop-rock beat. Therefore, it is surprising to see that “Vampire” in Olivia Rodrigo: GUTS world tour does not show the full potential of the song. Olivia Rodrigo compensates with enthusiasm and passion in the performance, in addition to the red lighting that accompanies the rhythm of the music. However, it’s a little disappointing that Olivia Rodrigo didn’t do more with “Vampire” on tour.
19
Driver’s license
Olivia Rodrigo’s debut album, SOUR
“Drivers License” is Olivia Rodrigo’s first single from her debut album, SOUR. The song broke many records at the time of its release in January 2021, including breaking Spotify’s record for most streams of a song in a single week. Rodrigo performs this song on the piano with various lighting effects in Olivia Rodrigo: GUTS world tour. It’s a simple choice, but it pays off. Rodrigo’s performance in “Carteira de Habilitação” is full of passion and heartalmost as if it was the first time she sang the song live.

As the song progresses, Rodrigo loses himself in the music, and the entire number shows that the song is as good as when it was released. Rodrigo puts his heart and soul into his performance of “Driver’s License”, making the song the best he can for his tour. Although “Drivers License” is a moving and passionate performance, there are many other interesting numbers in Olivia Rodrigo: GUTS world tourwhich is why the song isn’t particularly high on this list.
18
Enough for you
Olivia Rodrigo’s debut album, SOUR
“Enough for You” is another track from SOURand easily one of the best on the album. Olivia Rodrigo delivers an excellent performance of the song in Olivia Rodrigo: GUTS world toursitting on an illuminated crescent moon that flies across the arena, accompanied by shining stars. That’s it a creative way to connect with audience members with higher seats who may not have the best view when Rodrigo is on stage. Despite the heartfelt performance, it still feels somewhat redundant because Rodrigo has just finished another song in the exact same setting.
Olivia Rodrigo: GUTS world tour is streaming on Netflix, while his first documentary, Olivia Rodrigo: Driving Home 2 U (a SOUR film) is available to stream on Disney+.
While the logistics make sense, given that Olivia Rodrigo sings “Enough for You” in the second half of the arena, it still loses some of its magic because it follows the first song she sings with the same aesthetic. However, “Enough for You” fits better in this sequence. If Rodrigo sang the song elsewhere, it might not demonstrate the track’s excellence. “Enough for You” is still a clever and creative musical number, and a great song to use in this type of performance.
17
Jealousy, Jealousy
Olivia Rodrigo’s debut album, SOUR
“Jealousy, Jealousy” is the ninth track on the SOURone of the few non-romantic songs on the album. In Olivia Rodrigo: GUTS world tourRodrigo gives an electrifying performance with one of his guitarists. She also uses this musical number as an opportunity to greet some of her fans in floor seats. It’s an iconic performance that utilizes the best aspects of the song. The only reason why “Jealousy, Jealousy” doesn’t have a higher rating is simply because Olivia Rodrigo: GUTS world tour presents better performancebut “Jealousy, Jealousy” is not a disappointing musical number.
16
Lace
Olivia Rodrigo’s Sophomore Album GUTS
Lacy, the fourth track on STOMACHis a simple but fascinating performance in Olivia Rodrigo: GUTS world tour. It’s risky to play the song live, given its simplicity – the performance can easily become overkill if too much happens. Fortunately, Olivia Rodrigo uses “Lacy” as the song should. Her dancers are part of the musical number, but his role enhances Rodrigo’s performance on a circular platform rather than having a choreographed theatrical performance. The live version of “Lacy” is the best song possible and is the ideal way to balance out more theatrical musical numbers.
15
Good 4 you
Olivia Rodrigo’s debut album, SOUR
“Good 4 U” is the third single from Olivia Rodrigo’s album SOURand it’s easily one of their most upbeat and fun songs. It’s impossible not to sing and dance while Rodrigo sings the song with enthusiasm. “Good 4 U” also has excellent matching performance; It’s evident how comfortable Rodrigo is singing the song on stage. However, “Good 4 U” is also a safe performance—Rodrigo doesn’t add or try anything new with the music. It’s not necessarily bad, but I could have expected more considering how many times Rodrigo has performed the song live.
14
Déjà Vu
Olivia Rodrigo’s debut album, SOUR
“Deja Vu” is a surprisingly excellent musical number in Olivia Rodrigo: GUTS world tour. The song is the second single and sixth track from SOUR. “Deja Vu” becomes more upbeat towards the end of the song, but for the most part, the song is a slow ballad. However, Olivia Rodrigo reverses “Deja Vu” in Olivia Rodrigo: GUTS world tour in the best way possible. The musical number has pink and purple lighting effects with a choreographed dance to match. Rodrigo also uses this song as an opportunity to enthusiastically interact with his audience, making “Deja Vu” even more fun.
The live performance of “Deja Vu” also provided a renewed affection for this song that might have been forgotten beforehand.
The amount of theatricality that Rodrigo adds is a bold decisiongiven that “Deja Vu” is primarily a slow ballad, but the gamble pays off immensely. “Deja Vu” becomes a great performance in Olivia Rodrigo: GUTS world tour and one of the show’s best performances from her debut album. Rodrigo puts his energy into this fun and magnetic performance, something unexpected for this song. The live performance of “Deja Vu” also provided a renewed affection for this song that might have been forgotten beforehand.
13
Traitor
Olivia Rodrigo’s debut album, SOUR
“Traitor” is the fourth single from SOURa moving ballad about a loving betrayal. Olivia Rodrigo’s debut album sour. It is also the fourth song she has sung in Olivia Rodrigo: GUTS world tour. “Traitor” is an excellent song that doesn’t need much theatrics to deliver a stunning performance, something that Olivia Rodrigo evidently knows. Blue lighting effects and minimal background dancing in the shadows are the perfect accompaniments that enrich Rodrigo’s performance. “Traitor” is also one of his best vocal performances in Olivia Rodrigo: GUTS world tour.
12
Obsessed
Olivia Rodrigo’s album GUTS (spilled)
“Obsessed” is one of the new features of Olivia Rodrigo’s new edition of STOMACH, GUTS (spilled). Rodrigo easily gets lost in the performance of “Obsessed”, which works in his favor. She also sings passionately to the camera, a new method to make her live performances even better, especially for a documentary. “Obsessed” also has a visual setting with creative effects that match the music perfectly. However, The best part of Rodrigo’s performance on “Obsessed” is his guitar solo at the end of the songturning “Obsessed” into something more than just another performance in Olivia Rodrigo: GUTS world tour.
11
Brutal
Olivia Rodrigo’s debut album, SOUR
“Brutal” is the opening track of the SOURalthough it is at the end of the concert in Olivia Rodrigo: GUTS world tour. Olivia Rodrigo debuts her best look of the night in “Brutal”, and her performance is happy and energetic. The minimalist choreography and the more prominent role of its guitarists are the ideal accompaniments to this musical number. Rodrigo and his guitarists just seem to be having so much funmaking “Brutal” the best performance from her debut album in Olivia Rodrigo: GUTS world tour.
10
So American
Olivia Rodrigo’s album GUTS (spilled)
“So American” is another track from GUTS (spilled). It’s a lively, fun performance that goes well with the music. However, “So American” deserves a spot in the top ten because it is the first musical number in Olivia Rodrigo: GUTS world tour where Rodrigo picks up his guitar to play for the first time. Rodrigo alternates between playing his guitar and encouraging the audience, perfectly balancing the song. “So American” is a simple but Rodrigo’s authenticity and moving demeanor make him one of the film’s best.
9
Making the bed
Olivia Rodrigo’s Sophomore Album GUTS
Olivia Rodrigo’s performance of “Making the Bed” is a prime example of how an artist should interpret a ballad during a show without making it too simplistic or over the top. In fact, Rodrigo lies on a platform for most of the song, but that doesn’t stop her from putting everything she has into it. Even the audience in the highest seats can hear the emotion that Rodrigo brings to this performance. Rodrigo completes “Making the Bed” with additional dark purple contrasting lighting effects and the rising platform she is on.

Additionally, “Making the Bed” depicts the audience using flashlights from their phones to illuminate the arena, creating a starry effect that complements Olivia Rodrigo’s performance. It also adds beauty and mesmerism, hyperfixing the music.

Beautiful is not beautiful
Olivia Rodrigo’s Sophomore Album GUTS
“Pretty Isn’t Pretty” is one of the best choreographed numbers in the Olivia Rodrigo: GUTS world tour. It’s not particularly upbeat, and the song doesn’t initially give off the vibe of complex choreography or fun pink lighting. However, this doesn’t stop Rodrigo and his backing dancers from giving a performance that accompanies the music.
