On “Pretend,” Goody Grace channels the same feelings of longing for the kind of seemingly forbidden romance that aughts anthems like “Grand Theft Autumn/Where Is Your Boy?” and “Miserable at Best” allowed all of our middle-school hearts to spill over. It’s less Romeo & Juliet and more watching your best friend fall in love with somebody else, the kind of universal heartache that is all too tangible and you can’t help but wallow in.
