We are looking at all twelve songs from Gray's fourth studio album, Wishbone.

1.Vodka Cranberry

This track from the album is consistently loved by fans. The song starts bright and has an aching undertone to it. It is a heartbreak song, which is also catchy, and almost playful, and the lyrics gravitate towards sadness and longing.

3. Romeo

The song has a theatrical expression and is centered around doomed love. Fans find the song rather bold and dramatic, and subtly overblown compared to other tracks.

4. Class Clown

It is regarded as one of the deeply vulnerable and personal tracks from the album. The song is also about hiding pain behind humor. It is loved for its emotional resonance and relatability.

5. This Song

This track is produced by Ethan Gruska from the instrumental duo, The Belle Brigade. The song is a reflective piece that delves into themes of pain and nostalgia. The lyrics of the song also capture the art of holding grief and joy together.

6. Caramel

A deep, sweet, and painful song that is loved by fans for the way metaphors are included in the song. This song by Conan is also loved for its mix of catchy hooks and aching vulnerability. The three-minute and fifty-four-second album is also written by Nigro, along with Grey.

7. Sunset Tower

The song is moody and cinematic. The song tells a story of love and loss against a glittering lifestyle, contrasting glamour with loneliness. The song is regarded as bittersweet and includes Elvira Anderfjärd as a songwriter of the song.

8. Connell

The song is somber and atmospheric, and fans are assuming that Conan wrote it, taking inspiration from a character from Sally Rooney's book Normal People. The track strikes an emotional chord; it is quiet but not loved as much as the other tracks from the album.

9. Eleven Eleven

It is a “make a wish” type of song, tying into the wishbone theme. The song has an emotional core and a strong closing, but the delivery appears to be poor compared to the other tracks.

10. Care

Although it is the last track of the album, it is gentle, slow, and comforting. It is centered around themes like maturity, acceptance, intimacy, and vulnerability.

11. My World

A quieter track from the album that is about loneliness and explores self-identity and isolation. Fans loved the sarcasm used in the song, while some felt it was comparatively slower and hindered by weak delivery.

12. Nauseous

Nauseous is the last track in this list and is regarded as one of the most visceral songs. Although the song is emotionally raw and describes heartbreak, by the closing lyrics, it feels uninspired and sparse, and hence is not loved by fans as much.
