Review: Zara Larsson - So Good Album.

Hello, hi and welcome! 

So, I don't know if you're aware or not but Zara Larsson released her album 'So Good' today. I listened to it to and from work and I have to say I've loved every single song on it. 

I thought I'd give you a little breakdown of what I think of each song on it. 


WHAT THEY SAY.

This song is perfect to start the album off. It's uplifting and great to drive along to!

Favourite Lyrics: "They don't believe in you like I believe in you any way."

LUSH LIFE.

I've loved this song ever since it came out. It always reminds me of dance class in Berlin, my teacher there always played it to warm up to.

Favourite Lyrics: "No tricks, no bluff I'm just better off without them cuffs."

I WOULD LIKE.

Another song I've been loving up until now. Me and my dad took ages searching on Spotify for the original version of this song - turns out there isn't an original, but she did take the 'i would like to get to know you baby' from Sasha's 'Dat Sexy Body' (go have a listen and you'll see what I mean). 

Favourite Lyrics: "I can't help myself its human nature, human nature. Whose to say what's meant to be?" 

SO GOOD ft TY DOLLA $IGN.

Probably one of my favourite songs of hers ever. It's so chill and feel good, I know I'm going to be blasting this in my car in the summer. 

Favourite Lyrics: "Stuck on it 'cause my loves so good so you keep coming back to get some more." 

TG4M.

I remember when I first heard this when I was driving and I was like 'yaaaas'. I turned it up and tapped along to it. 

Favourite Lyrics: "You're too good for me but I want, I want you any way."

ONLY YOU.

I like this song but not as much as other songs on her album. Her voice reminds me of Bridget Mendler in this song. 

Favourite Lyrics: "I can't love no body like I love myself, only you."

NEVER FORGET YOU ft MNEK.

I remember when I first heard this song, I had it on repeat - I was obsessed. I'm sure it was in my monthly favourites for like five months in a row. I still sing along with everything I have when I hear it. 

Favourite Lyrics: "I wonder what would happen if we went back and put up a fight." 

SUNDOWN ft WIZKID.

I love this song so much. I love the backing track, her voice, everything. This song is definitely one for the summer.

Favourite Lyrics: "So can we love now? 'Cause I don't wanna wait until sun down." 

DON'T LET ME BE YOURS.

I really like this song. I feel like I'm saying this about every song, but there isn't a song I dislike on this album. This song is a little different to the others, it's quite deep and honest without being too dramatic. 

Favourite Lyrics: "You think you know me, but you can see my lonely heart."

MAKE THAT MONEY GIRL.

This song just makes you want to scream YAS. This is like an anthem for women, it's a solid favourite of mine. 

Favourite Lyrics: "You know that you're one in a million, so make that million."

AIN'T MY FAULT.

When she first released this I wasn't too sure, but that quickly changed and I'm sure I played this for like the whole of December - no joke. The drop is just perfection. I also want her boots in the music video.

Favourite Lyrics: "It ain't my fault you came here looking like that, you just made me trip, fall and land in your lap."

ONE MISSISSIPPI.

Another favourite of mine, I feel like I can relate to this song which is probably why I really love it. 

Favourite Lyrics: "Three Mississippi you're gone, saying you don't even want it no more." 

FUNERAL.

I thought this would be a lot more sad than it is - I'm not disappointed, I just assumed because of the title. Another song I relate to and really like, I dance along to this in the car too. 

Favourite Lyrics: "I wished you everything you ever wanted in your life, this tastes so bittersweet it's like I'm going under."

I CAN'T FALL IN LOVE WITHOUT YOU.

This is quite a slow one which really shows off her voice, it's not got a lot of production behind it. 

Favourite Lyrics: "I feel so happy, so happy that I'm free. And I can see things, things I couldn't see."


Favourite Song(s):

  • One Mississippi
  • TG4M
  • Ain't My Fault
  • Sundown
  • Make That Money Girl

Least Favourite Song(s):
  • Only You

Rating /10:

10/10. There is no particular song on the album that I've skipped. I think the only reason I don't love Only You yet is because I need to warm up to it still. I love this album and I know I'm going to be playing it for a long time. 

Thanks for reading!
