New Arrival ?!

Ariana Grande has been teasing her supporters for over a month with new music as they wait for the arrival of her new album. Well, they have to wait no more. Ariana Grande recently dropped her new album on February 8th called Thank U, Next. The album consists of twelve tracks including imagine, needy, NASA, bloodline, fake smile, bad idea, make up, ghostin, in my head, 7 rings, thank u, next and break up with your girlfriend, i’m bored. This release gains much attention because she had previously released an album called Sweetener just six months prior. However, this released compared to her last seemed to be bigger. On the day that Ariana dropped her album, she also dropped her video for the song break up with your girlfriend, i’m bored. She even had radio stations playing the entirety of her album as she explained the back song of them. Although I thoroughly enjoyed her album this week I also have my top five songs that have been on repeat on my playlist at the moment.

1)      Someone You Loved – Lewis Capaldi  

-        This song portrays such a beautiful story of a man who was in love but was left broken-hearted. He wanted this person to be in his life that he could rely on for understanding and to just be there for him. He had that person in his life that allowed him to be himself and let his guard down but as his lyrics goes “Now the day bleeds into nightfall and you're not here to get me through it all I let my guard down and then you pulled the rug I was getting kinda used to being someone you loved”. This is a great song to listen especially if you want to get into your feelings.

2)      3 Nights- Dominic Fike

     -    3 Nights is such a fun song. When I listen to this song I imagine a summer weekend with a group friends who are just having fun with each other. Dominic Fike is a 23- year old break out star who released his EP last year and this song, in particular, has become a huge success. Although he didn’t have the best childhood he took his talent to become the artist he is today.

3)      Swan Song – Dua Lipa

-        This song was created to be a part of the soundtrack for the new movie Alita: Battle Angel that will be released on February 14th. From the various trailers, Alita is portrayed as a strong female character and that is what the song also represents, being strong and to keep fighting no matter what. When the lyrics “I won’t stay quiet, I won’t stay quiet cause staying silent is the same as dying” was sung it this song it just reminds to you continue to fight for what you believe in. I also loved the name of the song because a swan’s song is normal soft a pretty but as the lyrics go this is not a swan song.

4)      Care Less More – Olivia O’ Brien

     -         Olivia O’Brien is known for her most popular song “hate u love u” but this song has to be one of my favorites from her. This portrays that a girl can act and do what a guy does when it comes to distracting themselves from the person they really want to be with. It is basically talking about the contest that they have to see who could care less more about the other person. The production of this song also grabs your attention and makes you want to continue to listen to the song.

5)      Undecided – Chris Brown

    -         Chris Brown has been known for his R&B hits and he did not disappoint with this song either. The song talks about being undecided in a relationship. He knows that he wants to be this person but is conflicted to go to the next step. The song has a very catchy tune and makes you want to dance and of course, the vocals are great. The music video for this song also takes the song to a new level with the visuals that are presented.
