After almost four years since Ariana Grande has released Positions, or just any music of her own, she has finally released her album Eternal Sunshine.
Many of her fans had been wondering when she would release a new album ever since her last album, Positions, released back on October 30, 2020. She put a pause in her music career due to the Wicked movie that she is acting in.
Ariana is now back!
She released her lead single, “yes, and?”, on January 12, 2024. She then announced her new album, Eternal Sunshine, out on March 8, 2024.
This is a concept album that is inspired by Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Now onto the best part, talking about her new album!
Ariana’s new album, Eternal Sunshine, contains 13 tracks (In order: intro (end of the world), bye, don’t wanna break up again, Saturn Returns Interlude, eternal sunshine, supernatural, true story, the boy is mine, yes, and?, we can’t be friends (wait for your love), i wish i hated you, imperfect for you, and ordinary things). “true story” is easily top 1 out of all songs on the album. A great 10/10 song.
The lyrics in true story make you think about how she interprets and sends a message to the haters about allegations. The ones ranked low for me are “Saturn Returns Interlude” and “yes, and?” because of how “Saturn Returns Interlude” isn’t really a song.
While for “yes, and?”, is her lead single in which I have already heard so much and so it’s very easy to have newer songs ranked higher.
Certain tracks like “bye”, “i wish i hated you”, “imperfect for you” , and “intro (end of the world)” are also very good favorites of mine.
Each song portrays Ariana’s emotion so much. “eternal sunshine”, “supernatural”, and “the boy is mine” are both songs with certain beats that bring a different vibe than from the rest of the tracks.
Eternal Sunshine is a very personal and emotional album for Ariana and portrays her healing. It is amazing to once again experience an album release from her and see how much she has grown with these new songs.
