In her return to music, Ariana is dropping a 13 song album entitled Eternal Sunshine. Beginning the album is a song called “intro (end of the world)” reminiscent of the beginning of Sweetner and the song “raindrops (an angel cried)” Next up is the song “bye” followed by “don’t want to break up again”. This album comes after her divorce with her husband Dalton Gomez and amid the controversy of her relationship with Ethan Slater. Whether these songs will be talking about her current and past relationship is still to be seen, but it does have fans on the edge of their seat!
The next songs on the album are “Saturn Return Interlude”, “eternal sunshine”, and “supernatural”. Each title is following a theme of the universe and its many wonders. Ariana Grande is not new to incorporating elements of space, the universe, and planets into her songs. On thank u, next she released the song “NASA” and on Sweetner she released a song entitled “God is a woman” with a music video taking place in the milky way.
The next six songs on the album, “true story”, “the boy is mine”, “yes, and?”, “we can’t be friends (wait for your love)”, “i wish i hated you” and “imperfect for you”, seem to center around the idea of love and the intricate nature of those relationships.
Ariana finishes the tracklist with, “ordinary things (ft. nonna)”. Grande is no stranger to having her Nonna accompany her on track. On Ariana’s album thank u, next, she made a cameo during the song “bloodline”.
