Honestly I really don't know.


DW as an album feels like it's been in the works for months. Most of the songs share the same overall theme, so it's hard to believe she scrapped everything and redid it.

Both of the Target/Japanese tracks are my favourite and are up there with the Deluxe tracks, they're amazing and far better than what she put on the My Everything Target/Japanese edition, I don't like Cadillac Song if I'm honest and I'm OK with Too Close but it doesn't beat Jason's Song (Gave It Away).

How does that make her a hypocrite? Lol

She released a song, it didn't have very good feedback, so she went back to the drawing board and made improvements. That's what a good artist is supposed to do, not just listen to a bunch of yes men.

Bad Decisions has completely SCALPED me

It deserves an iconic music video

yes, i think that:

Dangerous Woman
Everyday
Side to Side
Into You
Touch It
Thinkin Bout You

were added AFTER the direction of the album changed to fit the 'Dangerous Woman' vibe instead of the 'Moonlight' vibe which would have included most of the other songs

I think Knew Better / Forever Boy + I Don't Care + Bad Decisons + Let Me Love You, since they have that Christmas N Chill Vibe She replaced songs like Ridiculous which was a snipoet of sone guy playing the violin.

She changed Be Alright to more RnB and less Dance. And a bit of Sometimes

that means she wont go on tour this year, thank god

Ariana loves me i know it, she letting me gather my coins so she can snatch them all away (hopefully) early next year

& i went to Target today check if they accidentally put DW out early but no luck. Only Adele, Zayn, Meghan, and a few others still on the stands. ugh, Friday needs to hurry the **** up.

What makes you think that? What did I miss?

I need her to tour ASAP, but at least there's that hot 100 thing

[RudeBoyy]

Leave Me Lonely sounds much better live imo, they made her voice sounds so girly on the track, it sounded raw in real life.

Cadillac Song is excellent

[Reverie]

I'm trying so hard to not overplay this but whew!

[Colton Haynes]

Why does she sound like a 12 year old on LML? They really ****ed it up

.... sis i dont know any 12 year olds that sound like that

[Reverie]

Not necessarily 12 years old but I did think like when it reaches the climax and she starts belting she sounds really bright/girly and it threw me off a bit

[Mezter]

WaiT at Everyday suddenly slaying my little soul Please release this to Urban as a dual single with Into You

[Doogle]

I just played back the initial snippets of Be Alright that I listened to every day for 9 months and they're actually not better than the DW version at all.

She made the right decision with everything on this album. All the Christmas & Chill sounding songs are my faves.

[Oxygen]

I still cant get over the perfect outro to Thinking Bout You, what a perfect way to end such a perfect album

[Kh-Loud]

Why did Ari slay that live vocals of LEAVE ME LONELY soooo hard. The fact that she sounds powerless during the chorus on the studio version yet her belting is soo strong n powerful during that live version piss me off so much ugh

Exactly. I feel they excelled in tracklisting this time around

True. Finally learned from that god-awful ME tracklisting.

Yes. We would be getting an ME 2.0 + Christmas & Chill would have never happened. Basically all the good stuff rn would be non existent.

Focus its sacrifice was truly necessary

Ok y'all let's flock over to the Focus single thread and keep its memory alive
