Ariana Grande - "we can't be friends (wait for your love)"

Interesting choice for a second single. I would have gone "The Boy Is Mine" for the hype but, echoing everyone else, the MV really elevated the song. For a very upbeat, hopeful instrumental, the lyrics took on a very different meaning. Great job on the MV. Would have worked better as a last stage, sleeper hit like Bieber's "Ghost."

Can't remember the last time I got emotional over a music video. So did she get rid of her memories in the end or not? That "relinking" display got me thinking they were restoring them but it seems that it meant they were resuming the process after her breakdown bc she didn't recognize her bf at the exit.

I think she did erase them considering the closing scene, in the movie they "fight" against the process to restore their memories

okay I might be dumb but what does the line "you cling to your papers and pens" mean? I don't get the context.

Yeah, plus he looks 10 years younger? At first glance I said "oh wow he looks like young Evan Peters" and then realizes it was him :ahh:

This is what I was stuck on too and it’s because the actual song and lyrics are about the media painting her as a home wrecker and saying stuff lol but her still wanting them to like her. But the video is a tribute to the movie

I love the video but am I the only one who thinks it would've fitted "i wish i hated you" or "eternal sunshine" more? Because, if I'm not mistaken, we can't be friends is about Ethan, but the song is about Dalton.

What a beautiful Video. It really captures the essence of breaking up so well - from wanting to erase the person from ur mind, to the Nostalgia kicking in basically throwing u into a depressive state of mine, to the bizarre end where u act like u dont know each other anymore
