elleventhirty Posted May 25, 2017 Posted May 25, 2017 Guys the song went #1 bc of the video circlin of the crowd singing it. It's a song that sounds very somber and anthem-y, and the sight of the huge crowd all shouting the lyrics is v beauty, so it caught on. It has nothing to do with what Ariana song is more uplifting

OLT was chosen and the video spreading of Manchester arena singing it is extremely haunting but also its resonating with a lot of people clearly.
OnikaFarts Posted May 25, 2017 Posted May 25, 2017 A song about break up sex is now dedicated to the victims of a terrorist attack..

Exodus Posted May 25, 2017 Posted May 25, 2017 It's so poetic. Even not knowing that it was the last song played before the bomb went off, it's the best song to play a tribute to the victims. It's my favorite Ariana Grande song and I think it has always been underplayed due to the awful video and timing as the fourth single on that album. So bittersweet, but I'm so happy that this song can provide something amazing for the UK and get an iconic new peak there as well.
Jet Posted May 25, 2017 Posted May 25, 2017 6 hours ago, GypsyLife said: Exactly.... so it's not all of the sudden Ariana fans buying into this song but people in general too because of a sentiment. Which is why it seemed like he's boasting about sales figures, which is a bit of poor taste in this circumstance. You completely misinterpreted my post. Read it again.

It's not about break up sex it's a song about being able to experience the highs of a relationship one last time. If a relationship is synonymous with sex... that's you're problem. The song has some very poignant lyrics that are eerily similar to the circumstances of the attack. Great songs can be interpreted in multiple ways.

touya kinomoto Posted May 25, 2017 Posted May 25, 2017 My favorite Ariana song. --- ?One last time I need to be the one who takes you home? Unfortunately, their friends, their parents, their relatives were not able to bring them home alive. May all those souls who perished rest in peace. And to those who were affected by this senseless act of violence in one way or another - Ariana, her team, her fans and the relatives of those who died - may you find the strength to get through these trying times.
grace Posted May 25, 2017 Posted May 25, 2017 instead of buying the song, go donate to the victims....

I hate how you guys always try to make people feel guilty, that's unbearable. if they want to buy the song as a tribute, then let them do it. Edited May 25, 2017 by Squall
BravoTangoWhiskey Posted May 25, 2017 Posted May 25, 2017 (edited) Do y'all think this will top the charts? It's got a big lead and has another version at 15 edit: maybe not this week cos it's only been top for 2 days, but next week maybe Edited May 25, 2017 by BravoTangoWhiskey
