Today marks 5 years since Ariana's third studio album 'Dangerous Woman' was released, time flies! This record is potentially her most loved on the forum. So it's about time that we rate this album for the very first time. Last year we put these songs through the survivor format so it'll be interesting to see how they will differ here. Will 'Sometimes' get justice? Is 'Into You' going to be crowned the champion? Make sure to have your say so that your favourites do as well as possible!

You may award an 11 and -1 if you would like.

The deadline is 3 weeks from now: Thursday 10th June 2021.

Get rating!

xx Moonlight

There was really never a rate of this before? ohmy.gif

I'll need to remind myself of a few of these songs but I'll try and get around to voting in this, this is one of her better albums overall ~ (my 2nd fave after 'thank u, next' if I remember my thoughts correctly from the listenthrough series)

AN ALBUM



Constantly switching between this, sweetener and thank u, next as my favourite of hers. They’re all too good. SO many highs on this one.

Nope ohmy.gif we've had a listen through and survivor and I think people dropped rates at the time, in the general album thread, but not a proper event!

So exited to see how this goes, it’s crazy that there’s never been a rate before.

Currently listening to the deluxe edition(!) to celebrate while I work.

This album wub.gif I can only dream of her ever producing an album even half as good as this again.

08 Moonlight
08 Dangerous Woman
09 Be Alright
11 Into You
09 Side to Side (feat. Nicki Minaj)
08 Let Me Love You (feat. Lil Wayne)
10 Greedy
07 Leave Me Lonely (feat. Macy Gray)
07 Everyday (feat. Future)
06 Sometimes
07 I Don't Care
08 Bad Decisions
08 Touch It
07 Knew Better / Forever Boy
10 Thinking Bout You
06 Step On Up (Blackout version would be an 08)
03 Jason’s Song (Gave It Away)

Those last two... no idea, never even heard of them. I need to check them out.

5 fkning years... i remember literally sat screaming to myself when I first heard Greedy... goddddd

10 Moonlight
08 Dangerous Woman
07 Be Alright
11 Into You
07 Side to Side (feat. Nicki Minaj)
06 Let Me Love You (feat. Lil Wayne)
10 Greedy
08 Leave Me Lonely (feat. Macy Gray)
08 Everyday (feat. Future)
08 Sometimes
06 I Don't Care
08 Bad Decisions
10 Touch It
07 Knew Better / Forever Boy
10 Thinking Bout You
08 Step On Up
08 Jason’s Song (Gave It Away)

Honestly such a solid album, I think in terms of replay value it's easily my favourite from her, even if lyrically & production wise it's a bit muddy. An album that houses Into You, Moonlight, Touch It, Thinking Bout You and Greedy.. whew, this absolutely deserved Pop Vocal, 25 did not need it (or deserve it but)

To those who are new to 'Step On Up', here's a reminder of its superior form:

YES! That version’s so good and was the only version I knew, due to tik tok haha. Was really underwhelmed when I heard the official/original version laugh.gif

I love that 'Step On Up' is finally on Spotify! It could have easily been an album highlight with a better instrumental. It sounds like it would have been great as an opening track before 'Focus'.

Great to see quite a few rates already! Going to get the spreadsheet going cheer.gif

I was wondering why it was bordering on 20 million (!) views on YouTube but makes sense if it blew up on TikTok! What a banger *.*

Yesss when re-visiting it today I definitely got 'Focus' vibes from the brass instrumentation.

I'm conflicted about this new track list tbh as 'Thinking Bout You' was the perfect closer!

Too true! 'Step On Up' certainly screams more intro track and 'Jason's Song' is... just there, doesn't really scream closing track.

This was tough because I'd quite happily give the majority of the tracks a 10, but I had to be "harsh". tongue.gif
