From the mellow pop sound to the heartfelt lyrics, it's safe to say "21" has us feeling extra warm, fuzzy and nostalgic. Jenna also posted an adorbs IG reel promoting the song that featured footage of her over throughout the years, which had us remincising. It's a much needed reminder that growing up doesn't have to be so scary!

2. Jenna's amaze style

Jenna gave us all a sneak peek of "21" with some cutesy Insta reels and pics that had her rocking some equally adorable fits. From a girly chic, polka dot mini dress to a boho chic ensemble of a frilly longsleeve and classic denim flares, Jenna was giving us style inspo for days (and dare we say, for your next b-day?). 

3. Those *super* relatable lyrics

If you love Jenna's authentic, vulnerable and all-too-relatable lyrics as much as we do, then you're in luck: is "21" is chock-full of them. The chorus—"I'm 'bout to be twenty one/Don't panic, panic/Still so young''—reminds us to stay cool, calm and collected about growing up.

We just *have* to shout out the lyrics, "dramatic, crying every night 'cause I'm terrified/like every other girl that's been alive," because it shows us that being scared to grow up is a universal feeling and none of us are alone in feeling it. If the phrase "girl who is going to be okay" were a song, it'd be "21."
