YMMV / SOPHIE

• Common Knowledge: Sophie usually gets lumped into PC Music due to their similarly weird takes on electronic and pop music, as well as sharing production credits, especially regarding Charli XCX's projects. While Sophie frequently collaborated with individual PC Music projects, she never signed onto the label itself.
• Friendly Fandoms: With Arca. Both artists are transgender musicians who specialize in Uncanny Valley, that both spent years making a name for themselves as producers before eventually stepping out as pop stars in their own right. Sophie and Arca would eventually join forces on the track "La Chíqui", from the latter's album KiCk i.
• Harsher in Hindsight: The second verse of "Is It Cold In The Water?" may hit differently following Sophie's fatal fall:
  I'm falling
  Depths endless
  Worlds turn to smoke
  One hundred years flicker
  I kiss the snow
• Heartwarming Moments: "It's Okay to Cry" is a surprisingly gentle ballad, with the lyrics of a Pep-Talk Song and the video having the notoriously reclusive Sophie (literally) baring it all, in a move that many interpreted as her officially coming out as transgender.
  I hope you don't take this the wrong way, but I think your inside is your best side.
• Hilarious in Hindsight: Sophie's Breakthrough Hit "BIPP" features a stock render of a three-lane water slide as the cover art, colored in blue, pink, and white without any real significance. This was years before she properly came out as a transgender woman, and once fans took notice of how the original stock asset was depicted as blue and green (meaning the colors had to be consciously changed), many believe that Sophie was trying to tell us something much earlier.
• LGBT Fanbase: Sophie's increased exponentially after her coming out in late 2017 and everything surrounding Oil of Every Pearl's Un-Insides, an album which heavily revolves around her status and struggles of her self-identity.
• Memetic Mutation: Sophie killed Prince Phillip.^note After Prince Phillip was photographed returning from hospital in visibly bad health, one tweet joked that listening to "Ponyboy" would kill him immediately, and fans ran with it. Whether his actual death a month later made this more or less funny depends on your personal tastes, though.
• Nightmare Fuel: "L.O.V.E." is nothing short of creepy, with a high pitched Drone of Dread, the title of the song bouncing from ear to ear, and unnervingly upbeat interludes in between.
• Tear Jerker: The finale of the Oil Of Every Pearls Un-Insides Non Stop Remix features a 5-part ambient remix of "Infatuation" named after different sea zones, starting at the "Sunlight Zone" before descending all the way into "The Trenches", and 8-minute long passage largely punctuated by the sound of a heartbeat, heavy breathing, and the ambient sounds of what sounds like the bottom of the ocean, before gradually fading into one of the most warm, ethereal, and beautiful soundscapes Sophie ever produced^note Oddly enough, it's built on an elongated sample of an unreleased demo collab between Sophie and Starrah titled "Lock it Up". Combined with the knowledge that this was one of Sophie's last pieces released before her untimely passing, many fans have retroactively interpreted the final moments as the sounds of Sophie saying her last goodbyes as she ascends into heaven.
