I Met You When I Was 18 (The Playlist) (stylized as I met you when I was 18. (the playlist)) is the debut compilation album by American singer-songwriter Lauv. The singer describes the album as a "playlist".[6][7] The track list was gradually updated, beginning on October 20, 2017.[6] It was finalized on May 31, 2018.[8][7][9]

Background

On October 20, 2017, Lauv announced the initial release of I Met You When I Was 18 (The Playlist) on Twitter with the title of the project and a screenshot of a statement.[6]

“This has all been part of the same story. A chapter of my life. Moving to New York City when I was 18 for school and not knowing who I was or who I wanted wanted to be. Falling in love for the first time and being in a 4 year relationship that taught me everything about myself, the world, and how to love. Discovering and defining who I really was and struggling to have the confidence to truly be that person. Learning to trust myself, even when it was the scariest thing in the world. I did the only thing I knew how to do and turn my feelings into songs and share them. But the songs have been out of order. I didn’t realize it then, and the truth is I’m still figuring it out, but there’s a thread and all I know is I want to share it with you guys the same way I’ve been piecing it together myself. So starting today, I’ve put all of these songs in order as a playlist. It’s called “I Met You When I Was 18.” The puzzle is incomplete, and I’m going to be releasing a lot of new music that fills in the gaps until this chapter of my life is fully told.“

— Lauv in his statement announcing the project.[6]
