Taylor Swift and Olivia Rodrigo Fans Are Comparing the Lyrics of ‘Imgonnagetyouback’ and ‘Get Him Back’

While the songs have vastly different sounds, both songs appear to invoke the double meaning of the phrase “get him back” as the singers grapple over reuniting with their ex or seeking revenge.

Here is the chorus of “get him back” by Olivia Rodrigo, released on September 8, 2023:

I wanna get him back
I wanna make him really jealous, wanna make him feel bad
Oh, I wanna get him back
‘Cause then again, I really miss him, and it makes me real sad
Oh, I want sweet revenge
And I want him again
I want to get him back, back, back

And here is the chorus of “imgonnagetyouback,” released by Swift on April 19, 2024:

Whether I’m gonna be your wife or
Gonna smash up your bike, I haven’t decided yet
But I’m gonna get you back
Whether I’m gonna curse you out or
Take you back to my house, I haven’t decidеd yet
But I’m gonna get you back

However, some users suggest the problem isn’t with Swift’s song, which has a significantly different tone than “Get Him Back,” but the relentless criticism Rodrigo has had to deal with since 2021.

“Imagine if Olivia released ‘get him back’ after ‘imgonnagetyouback’,” one Rodrigo fan wrote. “Y’all know they would’ve made her give up another 50%.”
