Thank U, Next (2018)Įschewing a media narrative that demands “the tea” from celebrities when it comes to exes, the graceful Thank U, Next – the moment Grande’s superstar-status was properly cemented – acknowledges the past, learns from it and moves on. The perfect emotional end to the Positions album’s sweaty odes to bedroom Olympics. Unhurried and elegantly paced, it features a rapt, full-throated Grande pleading, “I want to love me the way you love me”. Breathin’ (2018)īuilt around watery textures, there’s something instantly dreamlike about the heart-swelling POV, as if it’s soundtracking that moment when you blink yourself awake next to a loved one. The layered harmonies drape the song like silk sheets on a king-size bed.
Reflecting on a new relationship, Positions opens with plucked strings, the sound of crickets and Grande’s giddy “Heaven sent you to me”.
This is laid-back, string-drenched R&B with a spring in its step. While it was her fifth single to enter at the US No 1 spot, Positions eschews the bold pop punch of some of Grande’s other lead singles. Built around a delirious horn riff, it switches the pop playbook by cramming all the hooks into the verses and the gloriously ascending pre-chorus, before an uncredited Big Sean whispers “I got one less problem without you” in the empty space where the chorus should be. Opening Wannabe-style with the sound of laughter, Problem is a similarly decisive superstar moment. Proof that uplifting self-empowerment anthems don’t have to be delivered at a snail’s pace, the sashaying Be Alright all but struts away from its problems. YouTube (rightfully so) doesn't allow anyone to make a profit off of another artists music.By her third album, Dangerous Woman, Grande was starting to expand her sonic palette, with this fan favourite elegantly dipping its toe in 90s deep house and vogue culture. When there is copyrighted material (the songs), all the money goes to Ariana's record label. *****I do NOT make ANY money off of my Filmed By You Videos.
