This genre has been repeatedly removed from the article, especially in the infobox by a host of IPs. While many people have opinions about what genre(s) a song belongs to, we cannot inject such opinions on our own into the article; content is backed by what reliable, independent secondary sources say, including genres. Grunge is clearly sourced in the article, in the Composition and lyrics section, per this source. [1] While Wikipedians can't determine the genres of this song per various policies, like WP:OR and WP:NPOV, they can determine things like weight based on what a number of reliable sources say. I don't object to the current sourcing for the "grunge" genre, even though I cited only one source that was in the article, but this is the place to iron out any dispute about it, if any.

Olivia Rodrigo has an RFC over whether Rodrigo should be called a singer-songwriter in the article, instead of a singer and a songwriter. A discussion is taking place. If you would like to participate in the discussion, you are invited to add your comments on the discussion page. Thank you. BawinV ( talk) 09:26, 22 July 2021 (UTC)
The claim that " the chorus is melodically based on the Paramore's 2007 song "Misery Business" is speculative opinion, and not in any way actually supported by any hard evidence. Accordingly, I have removed the language making that claim and replaced it with accurate language describing the fact that allegations have been made to that effect, after which Williams and Farro were granted writing credits. There has been no admission of guilt of any kind, and this is fact a standard practice in the industry when companies wish to avoid litigation. Already, someone has reverted my changes (which I made while not logged in), and I have reverted the reversion and added additional information for my citation to well-known musicologist Adam Neely, who analyses both songs and others and illuminates the music theory reasons why the two songs seem similar. It seems likely that this is going to lead to a revision war, even though my changes to the article are accurate, and the part I changed was not. Gcvrsa ( talk) 01:44, 4 September 2021 (UTC)
