Supervillain Posted March 10 Posted March 10 This album is a triumph. It’s actually the first Ariana album where I’m loving every single track. The replay value is insane, I’ve had it on repeat for hours and wouldn’t ever think of ever stopping, it’s that good. Every single song has its purpose, the interludes, even yes, and? which feels like an outlier feels really important and I understand why she decided to make it the first single. The melodies, the choruses, the production, everything works. I’m in love. It’s a 10 out of 10. 4
State of Grace. Posted March 10 Posted March 10 (edited) SNL was absolutely stunning. Her voiced sounded so dark and rich whew. Also can we talk about the sets? I love how she's not only serving her best music this era, but the videos and visuals so far are some of her all time best. If she really gives us more MVs like she's saying, this might top Sweetener as her best era visually as well Edited March 10 by State of Grace. 2
Gerardo Posted March 10 Posted March 10 tbh she should push the boy is mine fasttt, look what happened with pov for not capitalizing on it, wcbf can smash on pop radio, HAC, and AC, meanwhile they can start sending tbim to rhythmic and urban radio 1
Alex Posted March 10 Posted March 10 echoing the sentiments that we need a Tinashe feature on the full deluxe
Burn Posted March 10 Posted March 10 No new songs? a) I don’t like Troye Sivan b) idc for acoustic/acapella versions c) the remix with Mariah was horrid There’s literally nothing appealing about this version. I’ll stick with the standard. 2
Supervillain Posted March 10 Posted March 10 If there’s a deluxe coming with new songs I hope some of them will be house influenced to make yes, and? feel less of an outlier.
ariananext Posted March 10 Author Posted March 10 She was amazing tonight, loved the lower and mature vocals, but what surprised me the most was her confidence. We've never seen her like this before bar the Save Your Tears performance, she conveyed her feelings very well, she looked completely immersed in the music and moving confidently at the same time. You can tell that she really believes in this project as it's very personal to her but at the same time she's at peace with what she's singing, not like the past years when she was visibly traumatized and had a hard time being on stage. And don't get me started on the set and the looks? I thought it was a real set until the water wave, everything was absolutely perfect. Mimi did a great job and the photoshoot looks incredible, ugh I'm so happy about everything. 2
ariananext Posted March 10 Author Posted March 10 Also it's clear at this point that they're trying to push the album as a whole instead of the singles. Multiple physical versions, no big push for the second single, remixes for album tracks, performing a slower track instead of an upbeat one.. I don't mind it tbh. 2
Monky_2405 Posted March 10 Posted March 10 "bye" is the perfect song to open the album, it's one of my favourites! Actually if I have to pick the one I like less I struggle..it's so hard. Also, "i wish i hated you" is becoming a 10/10 for me! This is perfect!
Spark Posted March 10 Posted March 10 My biggest issue with Positions was always how weak the melodies were. The production or R&B soundscape never bothered me, but it felt weird to me that the melodies were so basic/weak on an R&B album aside from a couple moments. Made the album feel really one-note for me. I’m kinda shook that she returned with her most melodic album. She must have picked up a lot from Wicked. EAT. 1

SayIt Posted March 10 Posted March 10 I have been a causal fan of Ariana. But with Eternal Sunshine I am truly obsessed. The vocals, melodies, lyrics, vibes, and feels of the album has me blow me away and I can’t not stop coming back for more I hope this era has legs and the songs and album all get their time to shine 3 1
Cardcaptor Sakura Posted March 10 Posted March 10 So my favorites in not particularly order are: we cant be friends eternal sunshine the boy is mine bye dont wanna breakup again and they chose Yes and? as the first single? What were they thinking lmao 1
