Sabrina Carpenter’s new album, Man’s Best Friend, is here and we haven’t been able to stop listening.
The country and disco inspired record will definitely be a firm favourite with fans.
Of course, fans are desperate to figure out what tracks are about her high profile relationship with Barry Keoghan.
The couple were together for a year before they quietly split.

And fans are getting to the bottom of which tracks are about Barry…
“Man’s Best Friend is out now x how special to make something out of pure inspiration and zero pressure,” Sabrina wrote.
“I don’t think I’ve had greater memories making something before. I made the whole record with 3 of my best most brilliant friends Amy, Jack and John. And if i could turn back time and relive these memories i would. God damn we had so much fun!
“and you can hear it! It’s a real party for heartbreak, a celebration of disappointment! It’s laughing at yourself and your poor choices as everything is falling apart, it’s wondering how loyalty and love always gets you back to third wheeling, spoken sarcastically like a true 25 year old!”
The third track on the album, My Man on Willpower, is the story of a relationship coming to an end.
Lyrics include “my man’s forgotten his devotion” and “He used to be literally obsessed with me, I’m suddenly the least sought-after girl in the land.”
Another song, Nobody’s Son, has definitely caught the attention of fans.
Lyrics include “‘Hi, I hope you’re great, I think it’s time we took a break, So I can grow emotionally’ That’s what he said to me.” and “That boy is corrupt. Could you raise him to love me, maybe?”
Another song seems to elude to the on and off again nature of her relationship with Barry – We Almost Broke Up Again. She sings: “Called it a false alarm to all of our friends, Then we almost broke up again last night.”
In Go Go Juice, she talks about getting over heartbreak and fans are convinced that she is calling out some of her famous exes, including Shawn Mendes and maybe even Dylan O’Brien.
“Could be John or Larry, gosh, who’s to say? Or the one that rhymes with ‘villain’ if I’m feelin’ that way,” she croons.
And fans are loving taking a deep dive into the lyrics…
