• "Rodrigo wrote it with its producer, Dan Nigro. The song became available ..." → "Rodrigo wrote the song with its producer, Dan Nigro. It became available ..."
• "Critics" → "Music critics"
• "She included it ..." → "Rodrigo included the song ..."
• "Rodrigo suffered a wardrobe malfunction while performing "Love Is Embarrassing" ..." → "She suffered a wardrobe malfunction while performing the song ..."
• "The album was released in May 2021" → "Sour was released in May 2021"
• "she revealed Guts's tracklist" → "she revealed Guts' tracklist"
• Why some sentences in the composition part are in present tense, while the others in past tense?

• Critical opinions could have changed since time of publishing so they are in the past tense. Whereas, sentences like "the song includes guitars" would be present tense as the studio recording has not changed.--NØ 04:22, 10 October 2024 (UTC)

Sorry for not clarifying this earlier, but I was mainly talking about the credits part, "Nigro played, Ray played, Stewart played, etc..." and I see that it's done now! Medxvo (talk) 06:30, 10 October 2024 (UTC)

• "Sheffield ranked "Love Is Embarrassing" as Rodrigo's 20th-best song in September 2023 and picked his favorite lyric: "You found a new version of me/And I damn near started World War 3". GQ included "Just watch as I crucify myself/ For some weird second string/ Loser who's not worth mentioning" in its list of the album's standout and "gutsiest" lyrics, and Nylon included it alongside "You found a new version of me and I damn near started World War III" in its list of Guts's most impeccable lyrics. Ragusa believed the former was an example of her sophisticated songwriting, highlighting the choice of the word "crucify" as immensely theatrical and the description of the crush as absolutely hilarious" → "In September 2023, Sheffield ranked "Love Is Embarrassing" as Rodrigo's 20th-best song, picking "You found a new version of me/And I damn near started World War 3" as his favorite lyric from the song.

Any thoughts on this wording?

Everything else looks fine! This is a really well-written and well-sourced article. I will put it  On hold for now; happy to pass once the issues are fixed or discussed. Medxvo (talk) 22:50, 9 October 2024 (UTC)

Thank you so much for the review, Medxvo! All done according to your suggestions. I have kept the sentence split for Ragusa's comment, though, since I felt the sentence was getting too long but switched to your order of wording.--NØ 04:22, 10 October 2024 (UTC)

It looks amazing now! @MaranoFan: Well done. I am going to ✓ Pass the article now, congratulations! If you have time, please consider reviewing Taylor Swift Productions, I would like to know your thoughts :) Medxvo (talk) 06:30, 10 October 2024 (UTC)
