But when &#8220;drop dead&#8221; arrived today, we all found out that &#8220;You know all the words to &#8216;Just Like Heaven'&#8221; is actually a lyric in the song.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;I knew that this song was coming out and I wanted to, like, do a little Easter egg,&#8221; Olivia tells Apple Music&#8217;s Zane Lowe.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Asked if she played the song for Robert Smith, Olivia says, &#8220;Oh my God, I actually don&#8217;t know if I played it for him. &#8230; I played him a bunch of other songs on the album, I don&#8217;t know why I didn&#8217;t think to play this one for him though, I should.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">As for the overall theme of &#8220;drop dead,&#8221; Olivia tells Zane, &#8220;It&#8217;s about a first date, and so it just feels like a new beginning and it&#8217;s just trying to capture all those feelings of meeting someone that you have feelings for, and just being, like, nervous and, like, kind of insecure, but super-excited and just lovesick over this person.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Olivia&#8217;s new album you seem pretty sad for a girl so in love is out June 12.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Copyright \u00a9 2026, ABC Audio.
