Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.
The featured article for Tuesday, 8 September 2026, is Lacy (song).
"Lacy" (stylized in all lowercase) is a song by American singer-songwriter Olivia Rodrigo from her second studio album, Guts (2023). Rodrigo wrote the track with its producer, Dan Nigro. It became available when the album was released by Geffen Records. A folk-pop and indie folk song, "Lacy" originated from a poem that Rodrigo wrote for a class assignment. The song chronicles Rodrigo's obsession with the beauty of a female figure named Lacy, as well as her own envy and self-hatred.
Music critics commented on the lyricism and production of "Lacy" as well as the intensity of Rodrigo's performance. Some perceived potential LGBTQ implications in the song's lyrics. "Lacy" charted within the top 30 in Australia, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, and the United States. The song received platinum certifications in Australia, Canada, and New Zealand.
Rodrigo has performed "Lacy" at the Grammy Museum, the Bluebird Café, and a Tiny Desk concert. She included it on the set list of her 2024–2025 concert tour, the Guts World Tour. American singer-songwriter Noah Kahan covered "Lacy" on BBC Radio 1's Live Lounge, which was released as the B-side to a 7-inch vinyl single in April 2024.
