• WRNEGBT is her first single topping Billboard hot 100 for 3 wks • The meaning of the title: • “All the different emotions that are written about on this album are all pretty much about the kind of tumultuous, crazy, insane, intense, semi toxic relationships that I’ve experienced in the last two years. All those emotions — spanning from intense love, intense frustration, jealousy, confusion, all of that — in my mind, all those emotions are red. You know, there’s nothing in between. There’s nothing beige about any of those feelings."

Lyrics of songs from Red
And I never saw you coming And I’ll never be the same From state of grace – – Losing him was blue, like I’ve never known Missing him was dark grey, all alone Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you never met But loving him was red From red – – – – – – – And you throw your head back laughing like a little kid.
I think it’s strange that you think I’m funny.
Cause he never did.
I’ve been spending the last 8 months thinking all love ever does.
Is break and burn and end.
But on a Wednesday in a cafe I watched it begin again.
From begin again
