Olivia Dean’s The Art of Loving is one of those records that doesn’t just talk about love but makes you feel it.
And we all love “love” songs, don’t we?
The heartache, deja vu, butterflies, feeling of longing, and everything in between, we all hate to love it, and still end up listening to “love songs”.
Olivia Dean’s album is going to become your go-to!

Love is Beautiful. Love is Chaotic. Love is Messy – the Art of Loving Review
Love, according to Olivia Dean, is not a rom-com.
It’s messier, louder, softer, and more complicated than any movie has ever dared to show you – and that’s so true!
The Art of Loving mentions that love isn’t just butterflies and grand gestures, but the 2 am arguments you don’t fully understand.
The person who makes you feel invincible on a Tuesday.
The heartbreak that somehow still feels worth it. Olivia doesn’t sugarcoat a single second of it.
Across 12 tracks, she maps love like a GPS that keeps recalculating.
