.” “Bad Friend” is also one of the album’s tender moments. Tinged with the same heart-on-sleeve emotion as-era Christina Aguilera, the track is a thoughtful reflection on Sawayama’s past failings in her relationships. The song culminates in a choral take-em-to-church moment complete with claps, shouting out “Put your hands up / If you’re not good at this stuff.”
