A few minutes after starting your show as Headliner at the close of the tenth edition of Lollapalooza Argentina, Olivia Rodrigo He sits on a piano to interpret «License drivers”, That nostalgic hit that changed his life. In some way it recreates the way he wrote it, back in 2020, when he finally obtained his driver’s license, without even suspecting that that significant achievement in his short life as a teenager would later be a catharsis that would derive in One of the greatest successes of his career.

The issue begins delicately and is gaining strength to become a Power Ballad that accompanies with a heartbreaking voice, almost to the point of broken. It is one of the most anticipated moments of its set, also one of the most melancholic, because in the rest of the hour and a half its presentation leaves no doubt that it is a popstar with a lot of rock.

A while before, his performance began carrying a much more rampant energy, with pure jump, furious guitars and a Olivia walking sexy on stage with a two -piece red leather set. «Obessed» and «Ballad of to HomeSchooled Girl» were responsible for opening and marking the rock pulse of the show, which was possibly the largest call on the weekend and that meant not only the artist’s debut in the country, but also one of the first times that heads a festival as a festival as a festival as a festival as Headliner.

If she was in charge of meeting the expectations, her audience – which early dressed violet outfits in relation to the aesthetics of her albums – fulfilled her, singing each of the Setlist’s songs with an overwhelming intensity, which at times exceeded her own voice. Such was the fervor that the presentation had to be paused for a few minutes to guarantee the safety of fanssince as a result of the crowd of the crowd, many were being crushed against the fences.

«It is my first time here and we should have fun as much as possible, right? I never saw so many people in my life! The last time I sang this song was in Chile and they sang it very strong, but I have the feeling that you can do it even stronger”, Said the singer once back on stage, after asking her fans to take care of each other.

It was then that lowering the tone and the tempo chose the piano once again for «traitor», a ballad on the inescapable pain of betrayal. «Bad Idea Right?», «Love is embarrasing» and «Pretty isn’t pretty» marked the return to a more accelerated pace, in which a entourage of dancers joined him by enhancing his scenic presence with perfect choreographies and an extremely expressive body language, in tune with the popular pop tone of the songs. We must also highlight the role of the band that accompanies it with a powerful and precise sound base, and that is fully integrated by women.

«This is my favorite song, I used to give me a lot of insecurity to play it live. But now it makes me happy to play it because it reminds me how much I grew up and my confidence over the years. It takes time, but gets better than they imagine, ”confessed the artist at an intimate moment where he sang» Enough for You. »

«They are the most affectionate public in the world”, He added, before the fascinating accompaniment of his fans. That feeling of melancholy was continued by a cover of“ Don’t Speak ”of the Non Doubt band, led by Gwen Stefani, whom Olivia has appointed as one of his musical referents.

Towards the closure, after more than an hour of adrenaline and a powerful performance, the artist crowned her debut at the festival with a string of her best known hits, such as «Deja Vu», «Brutal» and «Good 4 U»releasing a visceral catharsis in communion with its audience and thus establishing a unique connection, which will be sealed forever in the memory of those who waited for it during all this time.
