Hi guys, 

today I am going to be reviewing something which I cannot stop listening to, I even stayed up at 5am to listen to the album before anyone else could. I love it so much and now that the album 'thank u, next' has been released I regret not getting tour tickets (they sold out) or even going to Coachella (I have Uni then) 😞

So without further ado: here is what I think about the album: 

My favourite songs on the album are: 'fake smile', 'ghostin' and 'makeup'. I love these songs as they are all different genres of music, fake smile being a pop single with a hint of R&B, while ghostin is a pop ballad expressing a biographical account of her experience grieving over her ex boyfriend Mac Miller who died of an accidental drug overdose last year.  On the other hand 'makeup' is an upbeat song which you can jam out to with your girlfriends. 

However, all the songs on the album have a different story to tell and while these are in my top three, all the songs on the album have a different layer of Grande which she shows to the world, she is not one dimensional she has many different layers which can only be explored if you listen to her songs on a much deeper level. I have not stopped listening to this album all week and when I have tried to detach myself from it, I tend to end up listening to it over and over again. 

I wish the album was longer as I would have loved to listen to more of Grande's songs, I first listened to it on BBC Radio One at 5am and could not believe she wrote these truly amazing tracks, I was gobsmacked as  ALL of the tracks were equally as good as one another. I love how she's used friends and families conversations to introduce the tracks as this makes it more intimate and personal to Grande. I'm glad that she's released the album out to the audience and I am glad we no longer have to wait as this is her best album yet. 

I'm still disappointed that I couldn't get tickets as I believe this concert would have been her best.
